I reinstalled OSX on my computer... 10.5 leopard and I have a time machine backup.

Problem is that I can't seem to figure out how to move my widgets from the time machine backup to the computer's fresh install (manually)...

The old install was corrupt so I didn't want to do a full backup just pull over what I needed.

Does anyone know how I can do this?... mostly its Stickies with notes on them.. but I need the information that was in it... I thought I would be able to pull them from my backup so I didn't copy the info when I reinstalled.

Anyone know how I can get them back? I tried moving over the preference but it didn't do anything, it placed the stickies but no text on them.. just blank.

Thanks
