Hi,
I am trying to transfer time machines backup files to a new and with bigger capacity HD but there is the operation is always frustrates because there are some problems with some of the files that cannot be transferred. Even if I choose skip and keep transferring the other files the process collapse automatically...
Any advice
Thanks for your time.

I see. It seems the old backup has corruption and therefore won't copy to the new drive. There may be a way to fix it but I don't know what it is. You'll have to wait and see if someone else responds.
I did follow this link step by step... but there is always a problem with the files that stops the transfer
any ideas why or what can I do please?
Any error messages? You could try running Disk Utility > First Aid on the older drive.
How are the drives formatted?
the error say some of the files couldn't be transferred due and error (cannot be read or copy) Will check again but it takes a while
First aid already did all fine
Format checked both are the same
Thanks a lot
You're welcome.
