iMac in suspension after restoring from Time Machine

Sorry - closed my previous thread by mistake then publish again for assistance:

Hi - I had a late 2012 27 "IMac El Capitan 10.11.4

A few days ago a reboot is required after (I think) an upgrade of the El Capitan, but the machine hanging after the reboot, showing a gray screen, a small circle in the middle with a grey diagonal line in the circle. Under the circle turning another circular graph which gives the feeling that I have to wait for the machine to do something.

In any case, the machine was stuck in this mode then after a lot of messing around, I went for a full restore from Time Machine (which is held on a NAS). Everything seems to be going smoothly, taking 20hours. He said full restoration and did a restart, but I am now stuck on the circle of greg with the diagonal line through it again that does not heal a re-boot. Utility disk V13 (450) shows on the left:

  • Drive internal
    • Macintosh HD. I can select Macintosh HD disc and verify and repair run correctly. It shows 852 MB free space of 1.11 TB of capacity
  • Disk2
    • System basis of Mac OS x, check disk is fine. It shows 38.3 MB available 1.19 GB capacity

Maybe some sort of thing disk permissions?

Thank you

  • Partition missing after restoring from Time Machine

    Hello world

    I use an iMac 27-inch mid-2010 and have a WD1230 external 2 TB disk attached to it. I partitioned the external hard drive to allocate 1 TB as a Time Machine backup repository and the other 1 to to put in music, movies and images files to save space on my system aging 1 TB drive.

    Good thing I put up this way because one day my system comes to refuse to start. I went in the mode utility and used the Time Machine restore feature to help me get back on my feet. After a restoration of 18 hours, the system is now purrs with all files and settings affected. Bravo for the process of Time Machine!

    However, this is the number I noticed during the restoration, formatted system partition on my external drive labeled "STORAGE" which contained my music and movies. I know that the files are there but I need to know how to access these files again as the STORAGE drive is so more appear in the Finder. I did a scan Disk Utility on the hard drive external with no luck either. Can anyone who has gone through this similar situation help out me? Thank you very much in advance!

    Restore using Time Machine to copy a game on the disc that you point to backup. It performs no operations on any drive or partition other than the one to which it is to copy the files. If Time Machine, neither utility restore formatted or partitioned external hard drive (unless it is more what you're saying.)

    It may be possible to recover lost files from this drive using a disk utility such as restore data of Prosoft. As a former tech, it's my go to software. There is no guarantee that it will work. Dril drivel is another recovery program people I know recommend but I never used it.

  • Merger VMDK file after restoring from time machine recognized not

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with Fusion 3.1 recognizes no not my Virtual Machine copied from time machine. I did what I did and the below error code.

    Question: I just installed a new hard drive and performed a clean installation of Fusion 3.1. After that, I used time machine to restore my virtual machine to Windows 7 x 64 at the previous address. I then open vmware fusion and looked for the virtual machine and click Open. The virtual tried to start but I received the following error message:

    Could not open the file "/ users / / Documents/Windows 7 x64.vmwarevm/Windows 7 x64.vmdk ': the system cannot find the specified file.

    I checked the contents of the package, Windows 7 x64.vmwarevm and the file is there. I don't know why he is not recognized. I have attached a screenshot of the file hard text, text log file and the contents of the package.

    Thanks for your help.

    WoodyZ - is there a way I can rebuild this section?

    If you can find the file "Windows 7 x 64 - s010.vmdk" within the structure of the backup folder Time Machine which is closest to you, you might get lucky, but really all depends on what exactly in this segment of the disc.  I use the find command in a Terminal to find this file because I do not think that you will find with Spotlight.  If you can find the file "Windows 7 x 64 - s010.vmdk", then in an attempt to at least be able to mount the drive with VMDKMounter in order to try to recover all the data, you can you can always replace the file "Windows 7 x 64 - s010.vmdk" with a segment of fake or another as duplicate file "Windows 7 x 64 - s011.vmdk" and rename it file "Windows 7 x 64 - s010.vmdk.  FWIW, it will really depend on exactly what was in the file "Windows 7 x 64 - s010.vmdk" about what you might be able to recover with VMDKMounter or even to start the Virtual Machine.  I actually had the results mixed in the past where only data could be retrieved and cases where all data have been recovered and in some of these cases, the Virtual Machine is bootable and in some not so it all comes down to what was in the missing segment.

    At this point you have nothing to lose and everything to win then to give a try.

  • Photos say too old version after restoring from Time Machine

    I tried to update my wife 5 c's iPhone but iTunes (version 12.4.3.1) kept saying unknown error (-50). I read that a possible problem might be something on an xml file in the pictures with a conflict or missing. I thought that this might be a good time to try my first restore with Time Machine. I thought I would restore Photos only a few hours of this day. While I was doing that in the middle of the restore, Time Machine was trying to make it's hourly backup and I got an exclamation point saying that he was unable to save. After the backup is complete, I tried to open the pictures and it says "library old Version, please update your library 'Photos' using iPhoto free library upgrade available at Apple. So I downloaded the file .dmg and still nothing. I don't want even if an earlier version of Photos, I want to what I had and I thought of making a time Machine would be restore was supposed to get back to how I had it. My Time Machine works again but the new backup, he's trying to back up my photo library. I know because I recognize the size of the backups as being the same size as my library of Photos. I went about this Mac and checked the storage. He showed my disk as empty and my regular hard drive on my Macbook Pro (retina 13 "- beginning 2015") showed use of backup almost exactly the same size as my library of Photos. A few moments later my external drive shows correct usage, but big backup on my regular HD space always shows the same backup use suggesting that it stores my library as a backup, or at least that's my guess. One thing that I tried was the Option key pressed when opening pictures to try to select another library that I have an old migrated iPhotos library in my folder of photos I thought that maybe Photos was trying to open. As a side question I was wondering if I could remove the migrated iPhotos library as whenever I click on it, more or less said that he has already been migrated, he discovers in a compatible version of Photos. I hope that I have given all the good news. If I'm missing something I apologize. I'm under El Captain 10.11.6

    I thought I would restore Photos only a few hours of this day. While I was doing that in the middle of the restore, Time Machine was trying to make it's hourly backup and I got an exclamation point saying that he was unable to save. After the backup is complete, I tried to open the pictures and it says "library old Version, please update your library 'Photos' using iPhoto free library upgrade available at Apple.

    What did restore exactly the time Machine? You write "Restore Photos", indicating you restored the Photos app, but the error messages seem to apply to the photo library.  You have restored a library of old Photos?  If you restored the photo library, try to open it directly by double clicking it or dragging it to the Photos icon in the Dock.

  • Virtual machine does not start after restoring from Time Machine to the new Imac

    I got my IMac replaced by Apple, after that they could not fix the old one.  They did a full restore from a Time Machine backup.  The virtual machine does not open now.   When I navigate to the file to try to open the virtual machine at the VMware logo in the bottom right of the icon displayed with large yellow exclamation appears on the icon?  Anyone encountered this problem before.  I'll take the Imac in Saturday if I can not solve.  The machine has the same size as before.  There are a few aspects of sharing with the Mac application miss me?

    According to the MacVirt.vmdk folder, you have the right number of segments of shared disk so you should be able to create a new VM by pointing to the disc in the new VM Wizard by pointing to the MacVirt.vmdk file.

    Note: After you create the new Virtual Machine, I would not suggest the Virtual Machine to stop, pause and close merge and then move all *.vmdk files in the package of the virtual machine, and then manually change the computer configuration files virtual .vmx and change the path to a little to view the MacVirt.vmdk file.  In this way, everything is in one package and is easier to maintain.

  • Safari on Mac not save history after restoring from Time Machine

    After doing a full restore on my Macbook Air of Time Machine, Safari is not displayed no browsing history, or he saves history after that I left Safari. I've restored the history file of Time Machine, but it does not, either. I'm not in private browsing mode. I also tried to erase the history, but it does not help.

    Any ideas?

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It makes no changes to your data.

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

  • 2012 MacBook Pro VERY slow after restoring from time machine

    Recently, I upgraded my hard drive on a seagate drive. I went from 500 GB to 1 TB. The installation went well. Later, I followed the steps to set up the hard drive:

    1. start the computer by using the R command

    2. open disk utility

    3. formatting the new hard disk by the computer specifications

    4 closed disk utility

    Then I restored from a time machine to the top. It took about 3 hours I had about 350 GB of data to restore. Since that time, my computer is moving very slowly! For example, the start-up takes at least 15 minutes for loading applications. Between the tabs in Chrome takes about 45 seconds to a minute. Loading a new web page takes about 3 minutes or more. Open an application like Evernote can take 5-8 minutes. Same shutdown takes about 10 minutes.

    In a previous forum, someone suggested to take a look at errors in the console. I have no idea what it means. Can someone help me figure out what this topic?

    Here is example of them below:

  • After restoring from Time Machine MacBook Pro displays all my pictures, Documents etc. as 'other '.

    I recently installed a new HD in my mid-2010, MacBook Pro that the original was defective, I then restored from a time Machine up which was recorded on an external drive. My MacBook is now going great but I noticed the problem with how my saved items are displayed, I have about 110 GB of Photos, documents, etc. and all are showing as 'Other' when they should be distributed in the divisions 'Apps', 'Movies', etc.. I'm not sure how to solve the problem, I tried a Migration Wizard, but it says 'User needs Attention' so don't know where to go from here really. Any ideas?

    If you use the 'about this Mac' view, be aware that there is a bug in the program that it generates and should not be relied upon.  Sometimes, but not always, he will correct a reindexing of Spotlight:

  • Sync iPhone with the new HD on Mac after restoring from Time Machine

    I tried this announcement yesterday, but got into a tangle with my iPhone on which I was striking and finished with two fragmentary positions. I apologize and try again.

    My Mac mini hard drive started fail and I'll have a new one (a solid state), actually installed by an authorized service center of Apple. When I get home I'm going to restore the contents of a Time Machine backup.

    My question is this: I sync my Mac with my iPhone via iCloud. For a few days while my Mac mini has been out of action, I had to add some dates to the calendar on my phone. When I restored the content of my Mac HD and I connect to the Internet, synchronization starts automatically. How can I make sure that it is the calendar which is synced phone to Mac and not vice versa?

    It should synchronize icloud to Mac because the update to iCloud is more recent. It would be the same that do not turn on your computer for a few days.

  • Strange behavior of Yosemite after restoring from Time machine

    Hello

    After having passed my MacBook Pro to El Capitan, I tried the same thing with my Mac Mini (mid 2011).

    Has not completely, because the system is stuck on the gray screen with the bar locked (10 hours) in advance. Impossible to get on this screen (sometimes P - ram reset restart, try Mode safe without success), I decided to return to Yosemite using my full time Machine backup.

    This operation was successful, but with a few strange things:

    • Normally, my system language is set to French. But at startup (i.e. asking the password), the system speaks English. It's extremely confusing, because the layout of the keyboard is also different (for example, the first key of the letter is 'Q', where on a French keyboard the first key is 'A', other differences of keyboard also). Once a user is logged on, the system returns itself to the lay-out French!
    • The new pit of backup Time Machine does not start. It remains suspended in the "preparation of files for backup" (= free translation).
    • The fan is working at high speed.

    Repair permissions and restart didn't help.

    Someone has an idea?

  • Problem restoring from Time Machine complex

    BACKGROUND:

    I never tried to do a restore from Time Machine.

    PROBLEM:

    2009 iMac internal drive is unreadable. *

    Previously saved on Time Machine before the problem of disk internal.

    Replaced the internal drive with 500 GB ssd

    When I try to restore the iMac via Time Machine, after providing the Time Capsule password, I get the following error:

    "There was a problem connecting to the server"Xxxx - airport-Time Capsule.local.""  Contact your system administrator.

    When I try to connect the iMac to time Capsule, which sees the iMac, after providing the Time Capsule password, I find myself in the same place above.

    When I try to use the Migration Wizard, same result.

    * I am told by the technology that has installed the new SSD, the system on the old internal drive is corrupt... but the data files are always accessible if the old drive is installed in an external enclosure that appropriate connector and wiring.

    Then... :

    1. How can I check the Time Capsule password?

    2. What is the answer to ' there was a problem connecting to the server "Xxxx - airport-Time Capsule.local." "  Contact your system administrator. » ???

    3. what other methods can I use to restore the backup?

    1. How can I check the Time Capsule password?

    The password is fully accessible using a soft reset.

    Press the reset button on the TC 1 s (that is, between 1-3 s).

    All passwords will be at default for 5 min.

    You can access the passwords via airport utility... No other router in the world, it is so easy and, therefore, has such low security like the Apple.

    Everything is revealed.

    2. What is the answer to ' there was a problem connecting to the server "Xxxx - airport-Time Capsule.local." "  Contact your system administrator. » ???

    The correct answer is $$ @ # $% * (! TC darn stupid..!)

    There's a good chance you have permissions issues. This makes life that little bit more difficult, but all will be revealed.

    I highly recommend you plug the TC by ethernet on the computer and do a full factory reset on it... and then set it to the top of all operating system has been installed on the iMac.

    No files are lost on the hard drive and you will delete all the other problems.

    So if you can't access the backup, it really is a permissions problem.

    3. what other methods can I use to restore the backup?

    Connect the original on the Mac disk using a USB key on his birthplace of SATA. See if you can get your files directly from the original source.

    You can also do something similar... Buy a USB... format correctly in Mac extended if it isn't already... and connect it to the TC... didn't check the TC on the disk. In any case, it's a good idea to protect your backup. You have to start no new backups on top of the old before you get your files.

    Plug this drive into the iMac and set permissions... you can not do this TB... only with the drive connected locally. You should then be able to access the backup.

    Migration is the best way to make the transfer, assuming that you have loaded a new computer specific OS...

    Just be careful of issues using a different user or the same user as the original computer.

    See here the instructions of Migration... which are a little outdated but show details much more than what apple has documented.

  • is it better to restore from time machine or from a backup cloned

    I just got my replaced Mac hard drive. Of course, I did a backup first - two, in fact. One is my Time Machine stored on my Time Capsule backup. The other is a backup cloned, made with SuperDuper!, stored on an external hard drive.

    Now, the mac is back with it's all new hard drive, and I was wondering: is there an advantage to restoring from a backup vs the other? Is "Restore from Time Machine backup" a better option than with SuperDuper! to restore the clone bootable? Or vice versa? Or does really make any difference at all?

    Additional info: the TM and Clone were both looking at the same time (give or take a few minutes) and the Mac, at the time where it has been saved, ran the Mavericks. I also asked Apple to install the Mavericks on the new hard drive instead of El Capitan.

    Display?

    Thanks in advance.

    It really makes no difference that you are restoring from.
