No more space, Time Machine backs up several Minis on Time Capsule

Time machine pop ups a warning window informing that he is y isn´t more than space for backup, even when there are 10 GB available.

I have 5 mini mac, based his account on the same Time Capsule (v 7.6.7) backup, the backup process will be performed once a day. The TC is connected via a cable (1 GB) ethernet, wireless node is stopped.

Some of them keep backup but to other Don t.

T.M. Shouldn´t delete older backups, related to the Mac mini makes the backup?

What I usually do is delete the backup (via the shared disk) for this mini and start again, but after a month, the same message appears.

I Don t know if's got to backups in T.C. are just a single disk image (picture disc sparsebundle) for each account, not folders with dates, as does my macbook using T.M. on an external drive.

I just can´t a solution to index?

Thanks for any help

N ° it is in fact the way that Time Machine is designed to operate. The method is different between those locally fixed and network drives.

  • Save the 10.6.8 in a more recent time capsule

    How do I save a version prior to Mac OS X (10.6.8) to a new time capsule, which says it does not support 10.7.5 or newer?

    This requirement is to put in place. Once it is set up, you can use Time Machine with it in Mac OS X 10.5.7 and newer.

    You just set up the new TC and plug the old TC... copy the sparsebundle existing old TC to the new... but we do not recommend to do this.

    It's much better to start a new backup TM on the new TC and keep the old one for several months until you have a fair story and if you need never old file the chances you decreases considerably with time.

  • Time Machine backs up too much upward

    Hello

    I recently bought a Capsule 2 TB and my MacBook Pro using Time Machine backup. When first installed, I've caused a problem with the process and after that TM works perfectly, save every hour, I changed the name of the time Capsule and things this is ugly even if I tried to change the name back. I put the time Capsule at its factory, deleted all the previous data backup settings, it relinked on my Mac and restarted the initial upward.

    Everything looks fine but now Time Machine back up to several times per hour, and at random intervals, sometimes without be planned. It doesn't seem to be taking additional storage on the Time Capsule, so it's more an annoyance that there are has multiple windows when I enter Time Machine or duplication of files. There are also 2 or 3 for each day more than 24 hours ago. I started back up only when it is plugged. I don't think that there is a problem with my power adapter/cable.

    Any advice? Thank you very much.

    Time Machine is designed to backup to local drive, if the normal backup target is disconnected.

    I recommend you do a reset of time Machine.

    Here see A4. He is old, but the method is still valid.

    http://pondini.org/TM/troubleshooting.html

    Then reconfigure for backup of your TC.

    Disable backups when the target is disconnected.

    See http://pondini.org/TM/30.html

    IMHO, it may be useful to consider buying Carbon Copy Cloner or other backup software. Stop time Machine and use something that is more reliable and more controllable. It can back up to CT as does TM.

  • Is - this time machine back up the record of the iCloud drive in the Finder?

    Background: I recently started using iCloud drive on my iMac with OS X El Capitan 10.11.5. I also continue to use a 3 GB CAP to automatically back up my computer using time machine.

    Discussion: I copied some files more in player iCloud (under Favorites in the Finder) folder to appear on my drive to iCloud. Obviously the synchronization service iCloud provides is great, but I want to that I am also able to backup these files on my time capsule as well for peace of mind, and it would be a nuisance if I constantly have to move files out of the iCloud drive to another location on my computer to make sure that the files are also backed up regularly on the time capsule.

    Question: Time Machine also backs up everything (all types of files - excel, pdf, word, etc.) that I added in iCloud drive folder on my computer?

    Thank you!

    Yes. Time Machine back to iCloud by car, but not where you'd expect.

    Look for the path below in your Time Machine backup...

    It's YOURdriveNAME > users > YOURaccountNAME > library > mobile Documents > com-apple-CloudDocs

  • 'No available backup disk', Time Machine is not more Time Capsule

    I have a time Capsule 2 TB and it has been used by Time Machine for many months.

    A few days ago the Capsule detached from his power and today is now connected to the new.

    Time Machine reports the error "backup disc not available."

    Time Capsule lights are green, AirPort Utility is showing this device being lit also.

    Time Machine knows how much space is available on this unit. However, it is not able to use this device to register older backups or to create a new.

    I don't see this device in the Finder, although I couldn't see him there when everything is working well.

    Airport utility indicates an IP address for this device and I can ping.

    What to do now? Isn't it at least possible to mount to access the files on it?

    Hello sdrfliozuit76,

  • Activating product on more than 2 machines, but used on only 1 at a time

    Hello

    I bought Creative Suite 5.5. I understand that the product must be enabled on each computer where it is used, and there may be 2 activations per license.

    I don't want to use the product on three machines, but these are all my own machines and no one else that I will use these machines (I'm freelancer working on mine). One is a desktop computer sitting in an agency where I work regularly, but not permanently. One is a desktop computer in my own home office. The third is a laptop. I can't be at the Agency and my office at home at the same time, so even if I use it on a desktop and a laptop at the same time (which is unlikely), the product will never run on more than 2 machines simultaneously.

    Political Adobe that I must still buy an another full license so that I can activate the product on the third machine (one of the three who is), even though I could never use it on all three machines at the same time, and he would never be used by more than one person (me)?

    Be sure to turn off, then turn it back on as many times as you want and how you see fit. No one is forcing you to buy an additional license and there is no limit on the number of times, you can disable / reactivate. Just a click of the mouse in the Help menu...

  • Old Time Machine back up is not recognized as such on my newly formatted mac

    Hello I have a mac pro 2009 edition, running on OS Yosemite

    I had an external HD to format Time Machine (TM), where I saved all my mac on. However I had to change my mac HD because it crashed and I installed a new SDS. I didn't recover all of my data on the new SSD, but I want to be able to access time machine to restore the items selected as iPhoto and iTunes. But when I plug my external, the computer reads as a regular external and I can't access it through TM and TM TM wonder to redefine a new external for backup of the TM.

    If I select my old external as the new external TM will erase all old backup?

    Is it possible that TM recognizes older externally as Time Machine back up? or is that, with each new HD, TM is new?

    Thank you

    If you now select this drive for Mac with the new HD files o the drive will be not changed/deleted.

    When you reinstall OSX and then try to use a TM backup you must first select this drive. What happens when you select this drive in the configuration of the TM and then try to restore the files through TM interface.

    1 n ° put them on a regular external drive and the value of Time Machine to back up as well; the files you want to keep should be at least two disks in case one of them goes down.

    2. they will not be usable until the restoration.

  • I have Windows Vista and back up regularly on E:drive. How do backups more space?

    I have Windows Vista. I've been using the backup of the standard sytem on my E: drive for several months. Now it is almost full, and it seems impossible to remove previous copies. I tried the suggested disk cleanup and it shows 0 bytes available to remove! I also tried to delete "system restore and shadow copies in 'Disk cleanup'." It seems to be a lot of disk activity, but no more space on drive E:! I also tried to manually remove some files, but they disappear from the index of free space on the disk does not increase. Can you help me, please?

    Is there anything else stored on drive E, other than backups? Otherwise, you might save a few headaches and just format your partition to backup.

    Warning

    • Formatting a volume will destroy all data on the partition. Be sure to make backups of all the data to save before you begin.

    • You cannot format a disk or partition that is currently in use, including the partition that contains Windows.

    • Quick format is a formatting option that creates a new file table, but do not completely overwrite or erase the volume. A quick format is much faster than a normal format, which fully erases the existing data on the volume.

    1. Open Computer Management by clicking on the button start , clicking Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, click Administrative Tools and then double-click computer management.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    2. In the Navigation pane, under storage, click Disk Management.

    3. Right-click the volume you want to format and then click on format.

    4. To format the volume with the default settings in the dialog box format, click OK, and then click OK again.

      For more information about the formatting of a partition, see create and format a hard disk partition.
