hi all. so i had to restore my imac from time machine after getting it repaired. it went mostly well, but it seems that my utilities folder in applications did not make it somehow. i remember reading somewhere recently in a thread about this, but alas my search didn't find anything.

how do i install *only* the os x utilities? thanks.

You should be ok doing that. Are your MacBook and iMac running the same OS, same point release?
