One TimeMachine server or disk can be used by multiple computers. TM distinguish between them using computer name (System Preferences -> Sharing -> Computer Name.) If your computer came back with a different computer name then TM would show you no backups for this machine.
- toomuchtodo 8y agoThat sounds like quite the oversight by the TM team.

- albertzeyer 8y agoSo what is the solution? Change the computer name back to the old one? How can you check that, i.e. figure out what TM backups are there for what computer names?
