When my old iMac died I got a new iMac 11.2 and had the data transferred. So now my new one has a folder of "data backup". I guess I don't know what to do with it. I want to be able to get my email contacts and bookmarks. When I open the data backup I don't seem to know how to use the info. I feel it must be something easy that I just don't know. I'd appreciate any help !
Neal Where is it (root, user, other?).

Not knowing what you're looking at it's hard to help.

Is it iTunes data backup?

It's too bad they didn't just transfer your stuff. Mac Service usually would do that - PC's no clue.

For example search a name or a known email address and see if Spotlight can locate it. OR, add to FIND categories, "visible or invisible", "include system files". prior to "Finding"

Can't offer more help.

Good Luck,

N.
