Reconnect to backup TM

In a moment of madness I just unplugged my Time Machine backup. [I clicked on delete the disk > stop using this drive]. I have changed the same drive, entered the password and hey presto I see is no longer my backups. I have not changed time capsule machines, or whatever it is reformatted. I just need to restore the link with backups I have and not start a new.

Execution of Yosemite 10.10.5 on a MacBook Pro to 2012, to a Time Capsule airport version 7.7.7 wireless backup.

Can anyone help?

Click the 'clock' Time machine at the top of the screen

Click back up now

It may appear initially as if Time Machine will make a new backup, but after a few minutes it will recognize the old backup file and perform a rear differential that should only take a few minutes.

After the backup is complete, you will be able to see your Time Machine backups normally.

    Hello

    I use my Time Capsule for 4 or 5 years now and it has worked pretty well. Yesterday, I swapped a modem provided by my company and I also got a new router from them (Sagemcom Fast 3260cv). I put everything in place with the new modem and the router. I am using their channel 5G. Time Machine couldn't find the backup disk until I plugged the Capsule on the router. The flashing yellow light went green and I could make backups.

    My question is, are there downsides to do things this way? As far as I know, I use the 5G for all my internet activity and the connection network wireless to my Time Capsule for my backups. This seems to be ideal. Now, I won't have to worry about backups on my internet bandwidth, although I suppose that the bandwidth of the MacBook Pro to the time Capsule will take a piece out of it, or will it? I guess the Time Capsule will not need to access the internet and instead just start over and set up to be only a backup unit, Time Capsule by plugging right on the router I can make it work.

    I read a little about changing the Time Capsule in Bridge mode. Requiring from anywhere in my backups?

    Is it a problem to have two networks in the House? The new router and the Capsule are right next to each other. (To be honest, I'm a little worried by the router sitting on top of the time Capsule that time Capsule remains warm enough. So, I even a plate isolating (a real plate) below electronics below are not affected by the heat.

    In addition, the cable operator said that the open network providing their router will not affect my bandwidth and that anyone using it (I see 17 networks using iStumbler, most have no signal strength, but some are equal to mine. (Mine readings 77% for 5 G and it is about 8 feet away and online direct from my MacBook Pro...) In any case, I guess it's ok to have the open network. I asked l ' switch off, but they say I can't do that. I do not need it...

    Thus, a lot of questions.

    Thanks for any help.

    See you soon,.

    I read a little about changing the Time Capsule in Bridge mode. Requiring from anywhere in my backups?

    You have a lot of questions, scattered through... I'll answer has some time and come back.

    You must never start backups due to the configuration of TC... Although you may lose the connection to the backup and the need to reconnect... which is sometimes delicate. TM will say that he will start a new backup and then discover the existing one.

    Changes on behalf of transport CANADA will TM to lose the connection but should reconnect for backups.

    A change of name of the computer will TM now start a new backup. (Although this is not 100%).

    I'm a bit worried by the router sitting on top of the time Capsule that time Capsule remains warm enough.

    Never stack network routers...

    Separate them by about 1 M.

    Train wireless or heat problems.

    There is nothing wrong with the execution of multiple wireless networks... There is a big problem, stack one on top of the other wireless routers.

    The best idea is to run ethernet to a room where you need more wireless and locate the TC it.

    In addition, the cable operator said that the open network providing their router will not affect my bandwidth

    It is bulldust ISP... I will come back more... Anon.

    After TWO YEARS, someone should be able to give us a step by step, to "reconnect" an external, USB hard drive!  I unplugged and then plugged it, several times, without success.  I seem to have this problem with one of my disks USB, a Toshiba.  Access the drive through files Explorerer, seems to work, even if it is "disconnected". Historical files only has problems. Strange! Could it be the drive itself, or it is plugged in to the USB port?

    I had the same issue this morning and found a solution that worked for me.

    This post helped: Windows - historic community of 8 files windows does not recognize my drive hard iomega

    NOTE:

    -make a backup copy of the files you delete first! (just in case)

    -J' had deleted my old historical records from the files on the ext. HDD, so I lost no data. I can't guarantee that the ancient history of the file will be there if you remove the configuration files, as described below. In my opinion, it shouldn't happen, but since I have not tried, I can't guarantee that.

    After checking my disk for drive errors (none) and update the drivers (not not mandatory), I went to this location of records:

    C:\Users\your user folder\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\FileHistory\Configuration

    and remove the four files that were on it. Because they determine the configuration of the file history, when I ran the service once again, I could set up my drive as if it had never been used before. I started historic files, and it lets me choose my hard drive and run the backup as it should.

  • Routers changed; How to reconnect time capsule

    Changed to Earthlink DSL to AT & T u-verse fiber and time capsule airport is no longer back up; AT & T set new router; I want to use only the Time Machine backup. What I have to do a hard reset of time capsule? Is there an easier way to reconnect with my iMac? I have now connected time capsule directly in my iMac, but still no recognition. Thank you.

    Whenever you change the modem or modem/router, or change service provider, the time Capsule airport must be reset to the default settings and then set it up again to work on the "new" network

    A hard reset on the Time Capsule will achieve this goal. Then, make sure that the Ethernet cable connects from one of the four <>- on the Uverse router/modem LAN ports to the "O" on the Time Capsule WAN port.

    Set up the time Capsule still... you can use the same name and password if you want, or set up a new name and password if you wish.

  • MacOS Sierra - time machine stuck preparation backup on network devices

    Since I've upgraded to Mac OS Sierra, cannot use my local backup USB. Time Machine is stuck with the message "preparing backup" - more than 12 hours - for network devices, an Apple FileVault and another NAS device. Works very well with the local USB drive.

    Something funny underway with network devices such that she works for the drives the.

    Hope Apple take note and fix.

    I have the same problem. I found this,

    macOS, problems of the Sierra: Time Machine backup Mac

    Time Machine problems prevented the Mac owners of their devices to backup since the upgrade to Mac OS Sierra, and the problem is widespread enough that Apple has published a guide on what to do if you can't back up:

    Discount for the iMac SMC

    1. turn off the device

    2. unplug the power cord from the monitor

    3. wait 60 seconds

    4 reconnect the power cord

    5. DON'T TURN ON DEVICE

    Reset the PRAM

    1. the computer must always be switched off.

    2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: command, Option, P, and r. you need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.

    3. press and release the power button to turn on the computer.

    4. press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You have to press these keys before the gray screen appears. Continue to hold the keys down until the computer is restarted, and you hear the tone of starting for the 3rd time.

    5. release the keys.

    You can then try to save again. If this does not work, try to disable indexing on the drive you want to back up.

    but I'm not sure it's the same question. I'll try it and report.

  • The backup cannot be restored, 5s

    My 5s in a bad iPhone stuck and I had to restore to factory settings and delete everything. After that, I have connected my phone to iTunes through the computer and began restoring the backup. He started very well but the duration became longer and longer. I left my phone charge all night and in the morning he said that it would take another 17 hours. I had to unplug my phone because I needed it elsewhere. Nothing seemed to be coming, but later that day, some of my previous images has been published to my phone, but not all. After that I repeatedly tried to reconnect the phone to iTunes through the computer, but even that will not always work. When it works, I try to restore the backup and boot normally until a certain time, my phone is itshelf (without me even being close to her). I have all the updates, there are no other connected USB keys, I rebooted everything but nothing works. I have these images and some other information elsewhere, so I'd love to continue restoring the backup, but what can I do? Thank you

    Hello

    It may be useful to follow the steps here, as the case may be:

    When connecting your iPhone to your computer, make sure you use a certified by Apple or an Apple original cable / cable of the IFM. If you are already doing so, try to use another cable of the same type (that is, only it is authentic or certified).

    Also check the port of loading on your iPhone and the USB port on your computer for debris.

  • Backup Restore Time Machine does not see RAID external drive

    Hi all

    I have a problem with my iMac restore from a Time Machine backup, and I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem already.

    I had to reinstall OS X El Capitan from scratch, based on education, I received Support from Apple. That worked without problems and my iMac works fine. However, I wanted to restore it to how it was before, using Time Machine. I keep my backups on a LaCie 5big Thunderbolt 2 and never had any problems with it.

    To restore the system, I followed the instructions on the Support page. I restarted my system in recovery mode and selected the "restore from Time Machine backup". Unfortunately the LaCie 5big does not appear on the list of drives, so I'm stuck... When you use the system in normal mode, the external RAID is visible and Time Machine stores backups on it without any problem.

    Any of you are familiar with this problem? I would be very grateful if you could help me with this problem!

    Kind regards

    Valerio

    Hello

    -While the system is booted in recovery mode, confirm that the Lacie 5big network is visible in disk utility.   You will need to disconnect / reconnect the Thunderbolt cable to the Lacie 5big be detected.

    -Once seen, a new attempt to restore from Time Machine backup.

  • time machine/capsule backup lost

    Hello

    When wanting to access the saved data of time capsule via the time machine, time machine shows zero backup history while there would be more than a year with a value of more than 900 GB.  I get this in time machine preferences:

    When you click on the available data disk, time capsule/machine displays no backup history and appears empty; the above data disk it is not accessible and cannot be removed.  Yet one of these disks is indicated as an accountant 963 GB of data, and I suspect that it is the only inaccessible.  How the hell could this happen?  Anyone has an idea, and advises?  I do not tinker with the application and airport utility shows no connectivity issues.  Please, let me know as soon as possible - thanks!

    Frank M.

    Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for Time Machine discovered a corruption of backup... it will then proceed to delete the backup and start over. The sparsebundle is not deleted... He still occupies the space that it used to before deleting the content took place.

    The only way to know if that is really what happened is to open the sparsebundle in the finder. See if it's contained in there... If there is... the question is different. TM has lost its connection to its own protection is also not rare. Any change in the network, you have done for this cause. It is possible to reconnect to the existing backups.

    My recommendations...

    1. read some of Pondini howto in order to understand what is happening.

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

    A4 and A5 are the most useful... TM to reset and verify backups.

    2. open the sparsebundle in the Finder and see if there is indeed always glad... If so, check in the TC. To do this through the disk tab in the airport utility. Plug in a USB key in the TC...

    Once you check the disk...... delete it and start a new backup.

    You can still access the old backup by plugging the USB directly to the computer... Right-click on the icon of TM in the dock. And select Browse... According to the screenshot below.

    The TM and TC combo turns out to be less reliable over time (pun intended).

  • Time Machine - there was an error preparing the Time Machine backup drive (could not mount the drive)

    I have a new HD but cannot set up encryption with system preferences. After ten minutes, I get the following error message:

    "There was an error preparing the Time Machine backup disk (disc name) - could not mount drive"

    Apparently, I need to set up the HD in this way:

    • If you are using an external drive connected to your Mac, use disk utility to make sure that your backup disk is formatted in HFS + extended (journaled) and is the partition type GUID Partition Table (GPT)

    It is not an option for the HFS + and so I used; OS x EXTENDED (journaled). GUID is ok.

    Can someone let me know what I need to do.

    Thank you

    Formatting: GUID Partition Table, OS X Extended (journaled).    (it is HFS +)

    For TimeMachine at best to a partition only.

    Do it again if necessary, then disconnect, reconnect, Start Time Machine preferences and "select disk".

    I am pretty confused at this point and don't know what to do.  I searched a lot of things, but can not find someone with this issue says .

    Any help would be appreciated!

    You have massively changed the network.

    So it is little surprise that TM has lost connection. TB is no longer in the same place.

    -Time Machine wants to do a backup complete of any HD on MBP; shows some previous backups, but shows used the Time Capsule disk storage:

    That's okay... because of the new configuration TM cannot detect the old backup, until she starts again. Apple never indicate anywhere... but TM can never find older backups on a network when they moved the place. It is a fact of how works the beastie TM.

    What you need to do, is to be very brave. Feeling brave?

    Select the data... the dancing men would probably be best. (Which means a network of road... wireless icon means a disk on the wireless... and will most likely also work... After all, it's the same thing).

    And TM will say that it will start a new backup in 120 sec (I never understood the timed fuse 2 min. time to clear the building?)

    When TM begins... She will discover that the old backup is always there... Check for fingerprints... I own it... Check it against your current hard drive... If all extracted TM will then make an incremental backup... You are reconnected to your backups... woo hoo!

    In case of failure... you will have a new backup and an old... It's also very well... wait a few weeks or a month or two... and then you can remove the old backup of the TC. Or store it on a USB key if the atmosphere is for old things.

    Apple documentation for most things is now seriously lacking. All the technical aspects are hidden from the great unwashed.

    Pondini was our guru until he died, but what it produces is always extremely useful.

    For your problem B5 and B6 here are relevant.

    If the Time Capsule and MacBook Pros are not on the same network, the MacBook is not backup in the time Capsule. You probably see what snapshots leaving MacBook on the local disk, until the two are reconnected. If you don't want that to happen, disable Time Machine on a different network.
