I want to use Time Machine to backup all emails in gmail to a drive.drive Seagate and Lacie.

I have a Mac Mini with OS X Lion 10.7.5.  I want to use some software (Time Machine?) to back up my gmail

emails dating back to 2006 on a backup drive Seagate.  I installed the time Machine, and he backs up everything but

gmail emails.  Can someone give me help.

Time Machine is to back up files on a local disk. If your gmail emails are in local hard disk, they are ongoing. But if they are on a Gmail server, this isn't a function of time Machine.

    I would like to know how can I use Time Machine for frequent backups after the initial.

    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.

  • Should I buy a Base Station for my Apple products to use Time Machine?

    Should I buy a Base Station for my Apple products? I have a Netgear CG3000D-RG gateway and also use Windows with this modem/router. I'm not able to backup using time machine and bought an external hard drive PassPort but I find it pretty annoying having to plug it in to my MBP whenever I want to do a backup. I would like to use the most convenient airport on my MBP feature, however, it seems pointless unless I have connected to my Netgear router/Modem base station. If I have to buy a base station to make the backup of my MBP easier? I also use 6s and iPad Air iPhone. I would be able to save these features too? Thank you!

    1. you must either have a Time Capsule or connect the drive to your computer when you perform a backup.

    2. Time Machine isn't back from iOS devices directly; they should be stored on a computer and the computer saved Time machine.

  • How to restore my Mac from a Time Machine archived backup

    I've tried Sierra for a few days, but since I discovered that some of my software work well with it but I restored my system to El Capitan via wipe HD.

  • Restore the data in the external drive using Time Machine

    Hi y ' All!

    I store my photos in my external hard drive because there is not enough space in memory is internal. This is actually my second drive external hard than my first (Adata HE720) is not the beginning of last year. Unfortunately, my WD Elements has stopped working and I can't restore data using Time Machine, as the drive is not found in Time Machine under devices, and I'm sure that I restored my photo library and many other files from my old external drive using Time Machine.

    Can someone tell me how to recover my old files? I have many other important data here including my photos and I don't want to lose them. I'm fairly positive that Time Machine allows me to get the data as is the point of it.

    Thank you in advance!

    P.S. If you guys have any recommendation on a reliable external drive, please do tell me!

    Hey guys, I found the problem.

    It turns out that I'm never giving time Machine to deselect my external drive to backup; Therefore, there is absolutely no copy done during execution Time machine. I really don't understand why Apple made this the default behavior, but it is what it is.

    So, people, don't forget to go to Time Machine preferences and make sure that you remove the external hard drive that you want to backup under options. Once you do, you can enter the time Machine and your drive will appear under devices.

    See you soon.

  • Use Time Machine to back up files in Windows

    Can I back up files of the window automatically to the Time Machine in the Mac Help. I want to only backup data from applications.

    Thnx.

    Time Machine is not 100% reliable in the backup and restore of Virtual Machines and I would never use Time Machine to back up Virtual Machines and would exclude the folder containing my Virtual Machines to be backed up by Time Machine!

    That said, if the files in question are outside of the Virtual Machine and inside the OS X Filesystem, for example in your Home folder, then Time Machine will back up what the file system of the host that is not excluded.

  • Time Machine or backup from Sierra installed

    I backup my MacBook Pro and MacBook Air to Time Machine but show just 'preparation' constantly.  Tried rebooting the Machine and the time of the Macbook, and they are all connected via Airport utility.  Don't know what other troubleshooting I could undertake?  Any help gratefully received.

    Sierra is having issues and never use Time machine on top of an existing backup anyway.

    The steps are to.

    1. archiving of current backups.

    Plug a USB key that is equal to the size of the disk of the CT (you mix the terms Time Machine... software backup on the computer... and Time Capsule... material target for backups within a router).

    Archive is on the airport utility disk tab.

    2. once the backup is complete. It may take a day or two for 2 TB which is full drive.

    Erase the disc from TC... a quick erase is fine.

    It takes only a few minutes.

    3 factory reset the TC and reconfigure airport under Sierra on one of your Mac utility.

    Reset Time Machine preferences and it should start and run very well.

    But also, you should read some of the other threads here on the problem.

    For example... preparation is supposed to spend a lot of time when you try to use the existing backup... more wireless with two computers together... It will take days to complete.

    Open the activity monitor and ensure that other processes do not always use CPU. A person discovered photos was chew 90% CPU making a function which is part of the update and not allowing any time for TM backup in progress.

  • How to back up to external hard drive using time machine

    I just bought a new drive external toshiba with 500 GB of memory. When I tried to back up my computer last night through a time machine, I thought that it worked, but when I woke up this morning, time machine told me that my oldest and the most recent backup is none which means that it does not cross. I tried again this morning but after hitting "back up now" time machine prepares the backup, and then start it, giving me a ridiculously ETA such a 15 hours, then never completely complete the back which is really confusing so I do not know what to do.
