Restore Files Using Time Machine
If you have configured Mac Pro to make regular Time Machine backups, you can use those
backups to restore a lost file. If you accidentally delete a file, you can quickly restore it by
opening the Trash folder. However, that does not help you if you have emptied the Trash
folder. Similarly, if the program or OS X crashes, a file may become corrupted.
Because Time Machine makes hourly, daily, and weekly backups, it stores older copies of
your data. You can use these backups to restore any file that you accidentally delete or that
has become corrupted.
