• How much space for Time Machine backups

  Hello

  Is there a rule for how much space you may want to allow for Time Machine backups?

  I would like to partition the drive to have a room reserved for Time Machine back ups only.  I realize that it is a personal preference.

  Each individual backup occupies approximately 790 GB.  But somehow I have 6 months of backups that supposedly take up only 880 GB on the disk.

  At this time the backups of my other drive back to 6 months in time.

  Fortunately, I never had to go back a few more days to recover a file.

  Is there a reasonable amount of space to allocate for backups, based on current usage of disk?

  Thank you

  Minimum would, of course, the size of the internal drive.

  Double the quantity is sufficient

  Triple the amount if you want a value years from TM backups

  I am convinced that these are independent external drives from your main hard drive of Machines

• I would like to add a folder of photos on a USB key for time machine backups

  I have a new time capsule, and I am attaching a USB hard drive that previously held some my time machine backups and all my photos. I would now add the photo of backups auto time folder machine on the time capsule. But in time machine preferences I don't see the folder or the USB key. Although I can see the USB in the finder as well as the time capsule window. I can copy and paste the photo time capsule file it's just I wanted to time machine for backup for me. Any help much appreciated.

  The time Capsule is what we call a 'network' of the road, so when the USB is connected to the time Capsule, which would make it a "network" drive as well.

  Unfortunately, Time Machine is unable to back up a 'network' of the time Capsule drive.

  If you want to save the data or the USB disk using Time Machine drive, you will need to connect the drive directly to your Mac and then it will be saved with your Mac... assuming that the drive has been formatted for Mac to Mac OS extended (journaled) format. Then, the player will become a "local" drive

  If you need to keep the USB connected to the time Capsule, the only way to back up data automatically on a schedule would be to use a commercial program like Carbon Copy Cloner or ChronoSync.

• Independent external drive for Time Machine backup

  Can I save two external hard drives independently in two separate backup drives?

  2 TB DHM supported with a 2 to DHM

  and

  5 to DHM supported with a to 5 DHM

  The 2 TB drive holds the content inventory which changes often but never amounts to more than 300 GB.

  5 TB disk holds archived folders which adds, with about 30 GB of data, once a month.

  Time Machine is not really suitable for this. The only way I can see it could do would be to an installation to be excluded from the backup disk, then do the backup Time respective Machine. Then return the exclusion so the opposite road is excluded, then backup to the backup Time opposite Machine.

  This should be clear would be a completely manual process, in fact you realistic would switch off the Machine in time to avoid that it auto backup on the drive bad between manual backups.

  However other backup programs more sophisticated pourrait be configured to do this automatically.

• Search for Time Machine backups for email

  I need to get my backup files for a particular email. This backup is on an external hard drive but not in active service at the moment but plugged on my system for purposes of trying to locate this email and the ability to retrieve other emails stored with the hope of adding them in my active files.

  My current setup of the system is: internal HD: operating system and active storage, (OS X 10.8.5

  3 t external HD: Active™ backup,.

  4 t external HD: archive™ backups.

  Because I'm not sure how Mail stores the emails, I don't know what file (s) to search the Archives of Time Machine or if there is some way I can use the Time Machine application to access this file.

  Is it possible to access these archived files?

  Please, do not settle everything about upgrading to El Capitan.

  If I need to restore a mail via Time Machine,

  I opened the Mail,

  go to the folder where I kept the email-

  Then enter the Time Machine and scroll down to date.

  Then I click on restore (the element or folder)

• My Time Machine is full. Should I keep it plugged in and turned on even if I switch to another external hard drive for Time Machine backups?

  My external hard drive, Time Machine is full. Should I keep plugged in m and, even if I switch to another external hard drive to keep backups with TimeMachine?

  There is no need to keep two connected external drives. Instead, I suggest you to buy a bigger external hard drive and transfer the backups that you want from the old to the new external drive, so you can use the old external drive for other purposes-> Time Machine: how to transfer backups from a current backup disk to a new backup drive - Apple Support

• Could not find the Time Capsule for Time Machine backup drive

  My iMac is running El Capitan and Time Machine is unable to find the Time Capsule backup drive.  I blew the backup several times in hopes that it will fix the problem.   The only thing I found which will allow a return to the top is to unplug the Time Capsule and plug it in again.  The work around works only once, then it's back to "can't find the backup disk.

  For anyone a cela or similar questions are you go in your Utilities folder (in your applications folder) and run the utility airport to see what he says about the disks attached. This cannot work for the readers of time capsule Apple rather than third party readers who have been designated as the backup time drives machine.

• How partition an external hard drive and configure for Time Machine backup?

  I am a rookie just to switch to Windows Apple Mac and I'm looking to back up my new iMac with a Seagate hard drive 2 TB external.  My Mac is a 1 TB hard drive, I'm looking to partition for backup and storage.  Is this a good idea?  Is there a simple way to do it?  I appreciate any help I can get.  I also bought three years of Apple support, but I'd rather do it myself, so I thought I'd give this discussion from the community to try.  Thank you!!

  No, it isn't. Your working data and backups must be on separate drives in case one of them goes down.

• What is the best solution when my external drive for Time Machine is full?

  Hello

  I use the latest version of Mac OS X on my iMac 27 ". I use a drive outside of 3 TB G-Tech for Time Machine backup. Due to my recently many RAW photo images, I have less 8% left storage on my external hard drive, so I'm trying to figure out next steps in what concerns the strategy of external storage and have the following questions:

  • When my external drive for Time Machine is full, it is my understanding that older backups on external hard drive will be deleted to make room for newer backups. If the oldest backups contained pictures (whose records have not changed since the time they are initially stored), then I guess that these photos will be removed from the external drive - correct?
  • If I had to replace my external drive for Time Machine with a new external drive which is as big or bigger than the one it replaces, what should I expect on the size of the initial backup on the new drive? I guess the size of the backup would be exactly equal to the current amount of storage used on my drive hard iMac - correct?
  • Would it not be possible to connect the external drive for Time Machine existing at a new Time Machine external drive so that when the original disk is full, the overflow will be automatically stored on the new external hard drive for Time Machine? (If feasible, it seems that this strategy would maximize my external storage capacity vs just replace external drives.)

  I realize that my first two questions are rather basic, but I don't want to make any false assumptions. The third idea is intriguing and I would like to know if this is a viable option.

  Thank you

  Brian

  older files are starting to get deleted because the disk fills up then Yes, they went

  the backup drive should ideally be 4 times the capacity of your current drive, twice is good but has its limits. Also factor in what you store: a jpeg from the web and a raw photo file are the two images, the size of a is very different. If you work in high-resolution or large native files, or audio files (record pro, no music files) or video production twice the disk fills up very quickly. If you collect photos and JPEG and mp3 files or a handful of videos not so much is necessary.

  I would keep the old drive intact if you want to replace and start over with a new drive, if that's the plan. You have the old data, you can keep it somewhere safe and have a redundant backup which you can reconnect at any time to restore from. Let the new index drive itself with new data and take if from there, in the case otherwise you can copy the backup to the new drive and set the drive as the new source of backup but personally I wouldn't copy of the data, that's my preference, it may not be yours and that's fine.

• Drive Time Machine backup

  I recently connected my Mac online after a break of 2 years.  Once I upgrade the operating system, then connect the external drive for TIme Machine backup

  It kept failing.

  I then didn't back up the disk and now I see is no longer the external hard drive in the viewfinder view, but it appears in the system report > view USB.

  How can I access my hard drive again and solve the problem of time machine?

• Non-Apple Time Machine backup Drive for iMac 27 "5 k

  I decided on getting a 27 "iMac.

  With my current iMac, I have a 2 wire to USB 2.0 external drive which I use for Time Machine.

  I would like to do something similar, since 1) it is cost-effective and 2) of my experience works.

  I look at the first player on this list, a wired 3 GB USB 3.0 of Seagate: http://www.cnet.com/topics/storage/best-hard-drives-and-storage/external-storage - readers /

  Thoughts? Thank you.

  HSGT is currently the most reliable disks 3.5 "with Western Digital to the 2nd place. HSGT drive, personally and I would choose. If you go for a 2.5 drive "then always choose a Seagate model. You can buy the disc and a box at OWC. Do not use a wired reader but a drive directly connected unless you have wireless access to the drive is essential. Stick using a USB 3.0 connection.

• Time Machine - there was an error preparing the Time Machine backup drive (could not mount the drive)

  I have a new HD but cannot set up encryption with system preferences. After ten minutes, I get the following error message:

  "There was an error preparing the Time Machine backup disk (disc name) - could not mount drive"

  Apparently, I need to set up the HD in this way:

  • If you are using an external drive connected to your Mac, use disk utility to make sure that your backup disk is formatted in HFS + extended (journaled) and is the partition type GUID Partition Table (GPT)

  It is not an option for the HFS + and so I used; OS x EXTENDED (journaled). GUID is ok.

  Can someone let me know what I need to do.

  Thank you

  Formatting: GUID Partition Table, OS X Extended (journaled).    (it is HFS +)

  For TimeMachine at best to a partition only.

  Do it again if necessary, then disconnect, reconnect, Start Time Machine preferences and "select disk".

• Cannot remove old Time Capsule for time Machine destinations

  My MacBook Pro moves with me between my home office and the different clients that I visit. At home, Time Machine backs up a volume of Time Machine on my Xserve served to the network by OS X Server. I guess that for the Mac it looks like a Time Capsule, although in my case, it's a RAID 5 with 12 TB of capacity.

  The problem, when I connect to one network other than my home network. As you can see, the window from system preferences Time Machine offer 'Time Machine backup on 'Dominik AirPort Extreme' network', which is not actually present on any network. When I go home, Time Machine continues to try to save this destination does not exist and does not back up the volume on my Xserve. I have to manually switch for my Mac starting the backup on the Xserve again.

  

  How can I make my Mac forget this volume forever? A couple of system reinstalls, to the end that I use the Migration Wizard to copy the configuration of the system from a backup, have not helped.

  On the computer of my wife as a backup destination appears, the good pair:

  

  This simple procedure will erase your settings of the time Machine, including the list of excluded items. The backups themselves will not be affected. If you have a long exclusion list that cannot be easily re-created, you may prefer a procedure more complicated that maintains the list. In this case, ask for instructions. If not, see below.

  Please triple - click anywhere in the line below on this page to select:

  Restart the computer and re-create your settings in the Time Machine preferences window. Falsely, it will show that you have no backups. Don't worry; your backups have not been affected.

  Perform a backup to test. The backup can take much longer than usual. If TM now works as expected, delete the file that you copied to the desktop.

• What exactly does the Time Machine backup?

  What exactly does the Time Machine backup?

  We have a Mac Pro towers (NOT for sale) and Mac mini with several hard drives installed internally.   Time Machine backup all internal disks or just the boot disk?   This can be configured?

  Time Machine backs up your default boot partition. However, if you have more than one drive or partition on your Mac (and it is formatted in "Mac OS extended (journaled)"), you can set the Time Machine to save these drives too. You can do this by removing these drives from the list of excluded items in System-> Time Machine-> Options... Preferences, so that the next backup will include all internal hard drives or partitions that you want to back up too.
