I need a few files to restore from a time machine backup to a different MacBook Pro that is connected to the same network

Hi, I recently "lost" my MacBook Pro because of water damage.  Fortunately, I've been using time Machine\Capsule and I have a MacBook Pro that is connected to the same network/device.  I need to restore a few files in the backup TM of the computer 'lost' on computer 'work '.  I was able to 'Browse' the other TM backup (click the icon TM plus the button 'Alt').  The Web browsing is extremely slow (took about an hour to break down / find the file on the network).  However, I tried to copy the file and I get errors of the alias.   Please advise me on what I am doing wrong.

Thank you

  • Restored HD from a Time Machine backup of my old iMac (stolen) from my new MacBook Pro.  Not all the files have been restored.

    My iMac 27 "(2011) so my wife 13 '' MacBook Pro (2011) were recently stolen after our House was robbed.  My wife got a new MacBook Pro and I restored it successfully its data (selected "backup restore Time Machine" during the installation of its new MacBook Pro).  However, I also got a new 15 "MacBook Pro in lieu of the iMac 27".  I have, once again, selected "Restore from Time Machine backup" (selected the iMac as the backup source) when installing my new MacBook Pro.  When it was finally over, I told Time Machine to inherit from the backup.  Unfortunately, none of the files in the My Documents folder or the photos in my photo library have been restored.  Was it a bad idea to try to use the backup of the iMac as a source for the MacBook Pro (both running El Capitan)?

    is it possible that your documents are stored on another drive which was not part of the backup plan? or is the HD in the big enough MBP to inherent the old backup.

    If you open the time machine with the original backup disc, you should be able to browse the content

    If the files are found, you can restore by right-clicking (or CTRL + left mouse)

  • I had to restore my mac from my time machine backup. Now don't launch Captivate (7.0.1.237), it is not yet bounce in the dock.

    Captivate Mac was working fine a few days ago, then after my restore from backup it will not start. It is not I need QUICKLY! I'm on deadline! One of my other Adobe products also has trouble. Since the restoration, Dreamweaver bounces in the dock and but does not entirely. What should I do?

    It turns out that it was a simple problem that I feared. My Mac not TOTALLY restore backup. The tech on the Apple store had recommended to re - install the operating system to a new version and then all my software and files from my time machine. If that's what I did. I don't remember that Mavericks does not include Java runtime, and I never realized that some of my Adobe products require it. I downloaded and installed Java, and now my Adobe products work as expected.

  • FTP settings can be retrieved from a Time Machine backup?

    I had to nuke my Mac and reload the OS, but I did not export the managed sites and FTP of Dreamweaver settings before you do; However, I have a Time Machine backup of the computer before I wiped the drive. Anyone know if I can recover the backup settings and copy them into the new installation? Two copies of the DW are the same and have been installed since the creative cloud. The only difference is the operating system where the old machine has the new El Capitan and Yosemite.

    I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination, Mac, so a little extra detail on explanations will be very appreciated. Thanks for any help provided.

    Yes, they can.  In your time machine backup, you will need to go to the library: Application Support: Adobe: commune: {Version}: Sites.  Just take this file 'Site' Time Machine to restore and you should be good to go.

  • Need help to set up: 2 different wireless with SSID 2 routers on the same network

    Hi all:

    I read on the forum trying to find the answer to this question, but have not found a very clear answer that satisfies all my requirements autour.  An explanatiion more in depth.

    I have 1 IP coming via cable modem.  I want to configure two wireless routers (one secured with WPA-TKIP and a non-secure network - a 'guest' If you want to) each with different SSID.  The secure network would be for my server, PC home, webcams IP, DynDNS, update; While having an unsecured wireless router that friends and family can access.  Ideally, I don't want any person who accesses the router unsecured wireless to access my secure network.

    Is someone can you please tell me if this is possible.  I think that it is based on some posts, I've seen, but specific details about how to do this would be appreciated.  In addition, my DynDNS must always be able to be updated with the IP of my ISP so that I can access my server and webcams home.

    MATERIAL

    2 WRT54G

    1 EZXS55W

    1 WVC200

    1 WVC54GC

    (all my stuff - webcam, dyndns, server, etc. - working on my secure network.) I just need to add the non-secure network)

    I know it's a lot, but I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you.

    You must be connected to the modem router WRT54G main. Set up the network secure on the main router wireless. Connect all of your computers or wireless devices for the main secure wireless network.

    Consider that the IP address of the main router is 192.168.1.1.

    Now connect a single computer to Port 1 on the second router wireless.

    Open the second wireless router configuration page. Settings wireless SSID, unsecured.

    Change the IP address of the second router 192.168.2.1. Save the settings.

    Connect the cable from the Ethernet port on the main router to the Internet second port router wireless.

    The second power cycle wireless router.

    Now the host computers connected to the second network unsecured wireless Wireless will be able to access the Internet only. They will not be able to see the computers or devices connected to the first router.

  • File not found error when opening a virtual machine (from No-Time Machine backup)

    Hello world

    I have a problem with my installation of Fusion 2.0.6 on my iMac to Snow Leopard related to a "file not found".  I did my best to analyze the positions of the community to see if anyone has experienced this before.  I found several posts and tried the suggestions in these posts, but I have not been able to solve.

    I'm trying to restore from a full backup of my XP VM. It's not a backup Time Machine; just a straight backup of VM together using SuperDuper (part of my nightly backup routine).  To restore, I copied:

    -> BACKUP/users/John/Documents/Virtual Machines/Windows XP Home Edition.vmwarevm

    for -> MacHD/users/John/Documents/Virtual Machines/Windows XP Home Edition.vmwarevm

    Merge, I opened the Windows XP Home Edition VM, only to get the error:

    «File not found: Windows XP Home Edition-000005 - s001.vmdk.» This file is required to power on this virtual machine.  If this file has been moved, please provide its new location. »

    I find the file hard (what is there) and get the same error message several times.

    Interestingly, when I try to open the same VM from the backup location, I also get the same error.

    Really stuck now and don't know what to do.  Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    It seems that the latest files are missing. The virtual disk which I guess has a size 5-6 GB provisioned consists of 3 files, of which 2 are missing for snapshot 000005 (Windows XP Home Edition-000005 - s002.vmdk and Windows XP Home Edition-000005 - s003.vmdk). Unless you have some backup, your options are limited and you will need to go back to the last instant whis is dated March 2012.

    Windows XP Home Edition - 000005.vmdk descriptor file (text file) will show the files that make up the virtual disk (the Flash disk in this case).

  • Problem with mail from a Time Machine backup

    Hello

    After I restored my wife with Time Machine MBP, it tried to start "Mail" and she gets a message:

    «Mail must import your messages (etc.)...» »

    So when I click on 'continue' it shows a # 52 847 ridiculously high message and he gets up to 981 photos and videos, then she stays there for hours. If I cancel, next time I try, it happens to 980, then next time 979 and so on, leaving fall 1 number every time and it hangs still for hours, until I turn it off.

    If I try to restore messaging of the backup, I get a message:

    "Mail can not be changed or deleted because it is required by Mac OS x."

    So essentially, she cannot open her e-mail software.

    What can I do to get the operational e-mail program?

    Well, problem solved.

    I did a reinstall TM on a backup earlier and got the same result with mail, so I just him to run the import as long as she could.

    Problem disappeared.

    Thanks in any case

  • my pc disconnects when trying to save in the folder that is located on the same network share as "offline files".

    I have 11 Windows 7 and they were all 'My Documents' redirected to a folder on a network (H:\) drive, in other words it has been made available offline. On this network drive, there are various files, some are personal folders and some are for public use (DATA, COMMONS, etc...)

    Now, sometimes when I try to save a document in the network drive, but not in my personal file, lets say H:\common, the laptop disconnects and shows me all the folders in this shaded in grey, network drive (as when I'm offline) and by the single folder is the personal folder which is always available. When the application attempts to save to disk network is displayed with an error message saying that he was unable to record on the disc, the laptop comes online again. This process can take anything from 10 seconds to 5 minutes and in a few rare occasions blocked the entire computer and I had to restart the machine.

    I'm having this problem on all computers, but not all the time, it can produce a few 3 - 4 times per hour, sometimes I can secure documents without any problems, and sometimes, it has not allowed me.

    Besides some of the laptops are connected to a windows 2000 server server and others to a Windows 2003 server, and as I said, all have this problem.

    I tested and replaced, hardware, tried the service packs, disabled antivirus programs, disabled the Auto Disconnect on servers... STIL not luck

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi rpgoni,

    Your question of Windows 7 is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for the IT Pro TechNet public.

  • Multimedia file sharing only works if the two devices are connected using the same protocol

    So I'm frustrated!

    I spent an hour trying to get my Windows 7 computer to share my music with my XBox 360. I have two machines on my network, one connected by Ethernet to the router and the other connected by WiFi. I tried everything I could find online to get the WiFi connected machine appears in the "Music Player" on my XBox system - follow all sharing, make sure that my router has UPnP, restarted a bouquet of services, etc..
    Nothing! During this time, my machine connected to Ethernet was watching me in the face. He has appeared on the XBox without problem. I started to compare the settings on both machines and found no difference.
    Then I remembered, boredom, I had setting up WiFi sync for Windows Phone my wife. In fact, it was this session of troubleshooting that lead me to put this machine on the WiFi in the first place! Seems to set up WiFi sync, Windows Phone and the target of the machine must be, not only connected to the same network (obviously), but for some reason any the $ @$ crazy, both connected by WiFi. I just connected this computer by WiFi - not happy, a faster speed with my wired connection - and immediately fixed the problem itself.
    Then, remembering that, I moved my XBox WiFi network and - presto - my second machine appears without a problem.
    My question is... WTF! ???
    This is ridiculous - this is the same network! Why things must be connected using the same protocol?

    Hi, Edward Petersen,.

    Please contact the Microsoft community. I'll help you solve the problem with sharing music using media sharing.

    Some routers isolate the cable connections and wireless, you can check if you have the option in the configuration of the router to share media

    If the problem occurs, you can contact the router manufacturer for assistance.

    Hope this information helps. If you need help with Windows, simply reply that we will be happy

    new iphone 6s said needs to update itunes before restoring from itunes? How do update you a phone not yet active?

    You need to update the version of iTunes on your computer, not the iPhone.

    If you are using a Mac, use the App Store app to install iTunes updates available.

    If you are using Windows, download the latest version of iTunes from the Apple website.

    Thank you

    Ugur

    Here is the explanation:

    ORA-01152: file string has not been restored from a sufficiently old backup

    Cause: An incomplete recovery session was launched, but an insufficient number of logs have been applied to standardize the data base. This file is always in the future than the last applied log. The most likely cause of this error is forgetting to restore the file from a backup before proceeding with an incomplete recovery.

    Action: Apply more marbles until data is coherent or restore the database from a previous backup and recovery of repeat file.
