  I have 2 questions about Time machine
  1. I have a 512 GB SSD HDD and I bought a new external drive 2 TB of HARD drive, how do Mach I use for backup of my internal drive with time machine on the external hard drive?
  2. is it possible to like 500 GB of external drive (2 TB) to use as a second partition for some time and after a few weeks to remove it and use the unallocated space and add to the partition of time-Machine to complete it to 2 TB without deleting anything the backup?

  Thank you very much

  1. at least 1 GB.

  2. Yes. Use disk utility to partition the drive, and then make sure that the 500 GB partition is below 1.5 CT one in the list.

• You can use migration assistant to transfer the time machine backup external hard drive?

  Hello. I just bought a new macbook pro with a 256 GB flash drive to replace my previous macbook pro that had a breakdown of all the systems. My problem is that I have a time machine backup that is greater than 256 GB (it's almost 450 GB) and I try to find out if I can use migration assistant to transfer all the content directly on an external hard drive, then move the content I want on my hard drive from the external hard drive? My goal is to let my music and photos on the external hard drive and for all port hardware I need for work.

  I don't have access to another mac with storage well enough that I have the old HD so could potentially be installed in an external enclosure and extracted files directly from there if it's easier.

  What I intend to do in the long term is to buy a big external hard drive network and put all my photos, music etc over there and use the laptop as expected - that is for files from day to day - then it will be just a short-term problem.

  Any advice would be really appreciated.

  Thank you

  Nick

  Migration Assistant is user to transfer data from one computer to the other.  If I read your post correctly, you want to copy your data from Time Machine on another HARD disk.  Thia may be useful:

• Can I do a differential restore from Time Machine?

  I have a user who has a file structure that lists many companies, each company has its own folder, and inside each folder there is a file called "Notes.docx. This means that each company has a generic file called notes:

  Companies folder

  File of the company 1

  Notes.docx

  Business account 2

  Notes.docx

  File of the company 3

  Notes.docx

  I've already made conscious, that this is a bad idea because it can identify files specific notes difficult, however this isn't the problem.

  The problem is that there are hundreds of records of the company , and it appears that many files of notes are missing at random. I don't understand not what causes some of them should be deleted, but not all, but that's where we are. To further complicate the issue, that he did not have a Time Machine backup since 3 months ago, so simply rolling the MBP back is not an option. Currently she does is he finds a company that does not contain the file notes that it connects to the time Machine and restores a single file.

  Of course the way he does now is not very effective and will take considerable time. I'm looking for is an option that would make a differential comparison on its records of the society and those who lack the file notes , unroll the previous version of time Capsule. Is this possible? I'm also open to other suggestions, thank you all!

  Time Machine can do in one shot... If you retrieve a directory on the existing directory... Yes, I think it will be...

  Be smart... Copy the directory to a new location existing.

  Then do a restore of this directory of backup TM in the same place... let run and then check the results. Look particularly for situations where known files could be early version on the last copy.

  Moreover,.

  I could do this in two steps.

  1 retrieve the entire repertoire... without doubt, all the records of the company are in the folder documents or something on his computer.

  You can go to TM and retrieve the directory to another location.

  2 copy the directory from the original. Be smart of course use a copy of terminal as rsync command. Just look to the top of the rsync command... you don't need to be pushed eggs... but being smart of course... do not do without a trial on the copy of its directory with all the files of the company first to make sure it isn't wasting. I just googled for rsync command to file update from the source to the target.

  rsync - v h - r Pei t source target

  This transfers only new files and files already existing but put to update the:

  The parameters in detail:

  • -h: numbers readable human
  • -v: talker
  • -r: recurse into directories
  • -P: --partial (keep partially transferred files) +.
    --progress(show progress during transfer)
  • -t: preserve modification times

• can I save my iPad on my time machine airport?

  I have a time machine airport I tired to backup my mac pro book. Can I also use it to save an iPad or iPhone or an other macbook?

  iOS devices like the iPad and iPhone to iTunes on your computer... or... to iCloud.

  IF... your iOS backup on iTunes on a Mac computer... when the computer to backup using Time Machine backups of your iPhone / iPad are thus saved.  So iOS devices can save some indirectly if you back up your Mac.

• How can I remove multiple backups of my Time Machine drive

  My time machine drive has reached the point where you have to delete an old backup before it completes a new backup.  Is it possible to delete several backups (e.g. all 2014 and 2015 ups 25%) since the Time Machine disk at the same time?  I know how to delete a backup but want to delete several at once.

  By removing the old back ups, remove the first one made or that it has the basic material on which TM all backups are built?

  MacBook Pro 2011

  El Capitan

  16 G RAM

  1 TB SSD drive.

  Time Machine drive is 2 TB.

  Thank you

  I came across exactly the same problem earlier this year. The best answer I found was here: thegreyblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/shrink-your-time-machine-backups-and.html in short, Time Machine, always create a full backup, not an incremental backup. So, no, you don't cause damage by removing one. I did it without adverse consequences. Second, use the tmutil command to delete old backups. sudo tumtil gives you the full list. I wrote a bash command line script, as the author points out. I deleted everything I had since last year, from the first backup performed in October, with:

  $ sudo tmutil listbackups

  Password:

  / Volumes/Seagate backup more Drive/Backups.backupdb/mkauffmanmbp/2016-01-01-003303

  / Volumes/Seagate backup more Drive/Backups.backupdb/mkauffmanmbp/2016-01-02-005714

  There was a lot more lines, what we are after here is the location to be used in the next line. In my case it has/Volumes/Seagate Backup more Drive/Backups.backupdb/mkauffmanmbp/ you need do the same thing, use it-before all the spaces in the path as shown below. Below, I've used 2015-1 * because the mine began in October 2015. I have therefore of 2015-10, 11 and 12. If you want to get rid of all 2015 you can use 2015-*. If you want to get rid of everything before October, you can use 2015-0 * which would remove 01,02,03,... 09 to 2015.

  $ sudo tmutil disable local

  (Here a line.)

  $ for i in/Volumes/Seagate\ Plus\ Backup\ Drive/Backups.backupdb/mkauffmanmbp/2015-1*; tmutil delete "$i"; fact

  $ sudo tmutil activate local

  I hope this helps!

  Happy new year!

• the myDAQ can record data at 200 kHz?

  Hi all

  The specifications of the myDAQ say he can enjoy at 200 kHz and has a size of memory 4000bits all about analog input buffer - how quickly transferred the contents of that buffer in the memory of the host computer? Can you connect actually almost to 200 kHz or overflow the buffer?

  Thanks in advance,

  Dan

  Hi Dan

  Sorry for the delay in answering your question.

  Yes the myDAQ can enjoy and transfer data at 200 kHz. The myDAQ is a 16-bit device, so at 200 kHz would be production 3200000 b/s of data. Even if we double to 32 bits to account for overhead in the transfer of data, we are still only consider ~0.8MB/s to transfer data between the device so that the buffer never overflows.

  The USB 2.0 standard defines a flow up to 35 MB/s, which makes it quite possible.

  Kind regards

• I just downloaded El Capitan and I lost my opening. Can't seem to find it in Time Machine. What should I do?

  I just download El Capitan to my IMac mid 2007.  I can't find my application.  Where is he? How can I get?

  Thank you

  By 'lost', do you mean the app disappeared completely? Upgrade to El Cap should not 'remove' the app.

  Newer versions of Aperture are compatible with El Cap.

  Go to Finder - Applications - see if your app opening is there.

  If so, has he the "circle with a line" above?

• Data recovery is possible on Time Machine disk?

  My 1 TB Seagate Expansion hard drive had accidental erasure and all backups are gone. This drive has the most recent backup of my Mac. Can I still retrieve its content?

  It is sometimes possible using a recovery utility.

  BUT IMHO you just learn the lesson and immediately start a new backup.

  There was a story, you need?

• Can't resize external backup Time Machine in the hard disk partition

  I have a Seagate Expansion to drive 3 that I use for storing files as well and Time Machine. Initially when I set up the drive, I allocated 350GB for the partition that I use with Time Machine.

  I use a 256GB MacBook Pro and Time Machine is now advising me constantly backup capsule is short of space. I have 2 questions:

  1. Disk utility does not allow me to resize the partition of Time Machine (I can only reduce the size using resize controls). Also, I can't delete the partition, because the minutes signed is grayed out (see screenshot) - However, I am able to erase this partition. What can I do to resize (and expand) this partition, or delete it and create a larger partition for use with Time Machine?
  2. What is the best size to send to the Time Machine partition in order to keep my Mac saved 256 GB?

  Thanks in advance!

  A drive that is mounted or shared may present as "Busy" that could prevent resizing.

  Try to disassemble the disc (with the assembly/disassembly button in disk utility) and see if it works better. Then mount it again before leaving the disk utility, or do a reboot to mount again.

• I'm using Time Machine (1 TB), works very well, but because full starting to delete previous backups. Can I add another (LaCie 1 TB) HARD disk for backups? If so, how to proceed. Thank you!

  I'm using Time Machine (1 TB), works very well, but because full starting to delete previous backups. Can I add another (LaCie 1 TB) HARD disk for backups? If so, how to proceed. Thank you!

  You can add another drive to accept backups Time Machine... assuming it is correctly formatted for Mac to Mac OS extended (journaled), but things are not exactly "continue."

  You have not indicated if you intend to add the player to the USB port on the Time Capsule, or connect directly to your computer using USB or FireWire connections. Or the other method works, with the option to connect directly to the computer being the faster connection.

  Once the disc is added, you would go in Time Machine preferences (click the "clock" at the top of the screen on your Mac) to add the disk for Time Machine backups and delete the old Time Capsule disk, since backups will go is no longer this destination.

  Since you have a new drive, Time Machine will do a new full backup of your Mac and then go forward with incremental backups.

• Time Machine every few weeks stopped backup because it must create a new backup. 9 to on MY Cloud EX2 takes 4 full days. Crazy to keep losing all backup dates.

  Time Machine every few weeks stopped backup because it must create a new backup. 9 to on MY Cloud EX2 takes 4 full days.

  Crazy to keep losing all backup dates

  Message reads

  "Time Machine has conducted an audit of your backups on"WDMyCloudEX2". To improve the reliability,

  Time Machine must create a new backup for you"

  Click Start a new backup to create a new backup. This will remove your existing backup history. This may take several hours.

  Click Back Up later to be reminded tomorrow. Time Machine won't perform backups during this period.

  Is - this common, no way to stop it?

  Just take a brief look at WD for 'My Cloud EX2' site, they list El Capitan as an operating system supported. Mavericks is the latest OS listed. Probably you need to contact Western Digital support.

• Disk error backup external hard Time machine

  Hello
  While that hurry to catch a flight, I accidentally disconnected my external hard drive (which I use for time machine backups) before ejecting.  Now the House, the time machine backup does not recognize my external hard drive.  I went into disk utility to try to repair the disk.  Here's what he said:

  I could really use some help as to how I should proceed.  Any advice?
  

  I think you need to clear this backup disk, and while you are this and do a full backup (which takes all afternoon to all night) you will be working without a net. If you do in idle time, and after checking your boot disk, the risk of catastrophic failure while the backup is low. Start now and in the future, you will have a backup.

  If you have a different backup disk, add it and Time Machine will create a new independent backup on it, and then Time Machine alternate disks automatically.
