I was running BigSur on a mid 2015 iMac, but realized that I needed to downgrade to Catalina to run a specific program. I bought a WD HDD, used time machine to back up my computer, and then successfully erased my iMac and installed Catalina.
However, now I can't see the contents of my WD hard drive with the backup (it showed up before I downgraded). The external "Element" is formatted as an APFS Volume, and I can see that there's 264 GB sitting on it. But I can't see those files or get Time Machine to recognize it now.
Any suggestions on how to make this work?
