• How can I transfer the creative suite CS5 to my old iMac to my new Macbook? Pro?

  My father bought the Creative suite as a gift for me on my old iMac a few years ago. I recently bought a new Macbook Pro, and I would like to transfer is after all more or less Illustrator and InDesign. As far as I know, my father could sign their Adobe account and get the serial number of the purchase for me to download it again, the problem is however as it was 4 years ago, he can't remember the email he used or his password for his account of adobe. So, is there another way to get the serial key, or can I just copy the programs on my new Macbook with just a USB cord? What are my options?

  This doesn't have to be such a scenario, black and white, leaving you dead in the water if you forgot the email address used to register the software.

  Your best option is always to keep your own records. I mine store in a text file in Dropbox. It helps me to re - install the software on any device, anywhere where I am be.

  Next Adobe offers several steps, find the serial number of your product Adobe quickly

  If not, try running Mac product Key Finder. Recover lost key to product for Mac applications

  Once that you can't find it, store it safely (for all of your software) in the event that this never happens again.

• The merger with Time Machine backups

  I fear I know the answer to that, but would like confirmation.

  I am running Fusion 2.0.4 and have Mac OS 10.5.6.

  As part of support to replace a faulty card from the airport on my MBP, Apple did a new install of the OS and erased my disk. When I started the laptop I told it to restore from a Time Machine backup. He restored all the files under the My Documents folder, except for my virtual machines. He has even restored a text file I had in the 'Virtual Machines' folder, but not the virtual machines themselves. Looking back through the external drive for Time Machine, I don't see the virtual machines to any previous backup.

  I guess I'm watered at this point, although I'm hoping the actual VMs are located elsewhere, and under 'Virtual Machines' files are just links. Does anyone have an idea what I can try, or why the virtual machines are not saved?

  Thank you.

  Jeff

  If your virtual machines were in the "Virtual Machines" folder, where they are. Although it is possible to create a configuration where this isn't quite the case (for example, the link hard to another directory or volume), the simplest and explanation of the default value is that your virtual machines were either not stored (in this case I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news) or in the first place never were in this folder (you can check your drive to backup files/folders - virtual machines tend to be big so should stand out).

  As to why it is, Time Machine in the first versions of Leopard would cause a deadlock (and hang the Mac) in certain circumstances, one of them was a virtual machine. To work around this problem, Fusion told Time Machine to exclude virtual machines. Apple has fixed the bug of Time Machine and deleted merge the exclusion of Time Machine, but it is possible to get into situations where virtual machines are still excluded.

  In general, we do not recommend the use of Time Machine to back up virtual machines - the short version is that it will go quickly through space and that it still does not produce a viable backup. Instead, we recommend that you back up files in the comments (or their mirror to the host and let Time Machine pick them up there), or manually back up virtual machines when they are not running.

• Keychain error 100001 during the set up Time Machine to new iMac

  I received this error message: "error 100001 Keychain occurred during the creation of system Keychain for the username entry + all trying to set up Time Machine using my Airport Time Capsule for backups to a new iMac. Time Capsule airport working flawless since a few years back up both my laptop and my husbands laptop.  Scanning in the nets, I see that this is not an unknown problem, but I couldn't find any viable solution. I tried to edit the main chain. Suggestions?

  On a brand new iMac, it's kind of serious error. I could contact the Apple support and see if they know of the issue.

  I've never seen someone post in this topic... but as you say, this is certainly not unknown.

  Keychain error 100001 when you try to reconnect time machine.

  The iMac came with El Capitan or you upgrade settled according to Yosemite?

  Since the above post, I'd be inclined to reinstall the operating system.

  OR

  I must say that Time Machine becomes annoying... It is complicated and there are several issues where people often find that it doesn't work when they most need, IE recovery.

  I'd be inclined to install and use Carbon Copy clone or Chronosync. You can always make the backup of the TC, although to be honest, once again a 2.5 "self-powered drive plugged into the port USB3 can work much better with an iMac... occasional use of backup on the TC to ensure that you have a second backup.

• Sierra - changes to files, Log and the impact to Time Machine

  Hello

  Updated for Sierra and have a minor but very annoying problem. I hope someone can help.

  In the Sierra before the SYSLOG command would print the system from the Console log. Time Machine executions have been recorded there. With a simple command-line grep "iMac com.apple.backupd" I could find all the Time Machine backups and see backup times and pass/fail status, when an error has occurred, the error type.

  Monitor the status of backup is critical for me.

  In the Sierra, the log files are completely different. I can't find where time machine stores its entries or what these entries look like.

  Anyone know how Sierra I accomplish the above? In a log file or elsewhere?

  Thank you

  Al

• Restore the folder from Time Machine backup external hard drive

  Hello world

  I have a folder of music that is 600Go and has been saved on Time Machine my previous internal hard drive in the iMac.

  Ive since upgraded to SSD and do not want to want to restore this music folder on my new SSD due to its massive size.

  Is there anyway I can restore the folder music of time machine on an external hard drive?

  This way I can still recover my music collection but away from the internal SSD.

  Any info and advice would be great.

  Open Time Machine

  Navigate the backups to find the music folder

  Click on the music folder to highlight

  Click on the gear at the top of the window icon

  Click on "restore to".

• How to clean the files of time machine restore after reinstall

  Just did a wipe and reinstall on an iMac 2011 (10.8.5) mountain running Lion.

  I don't want to do a full restore from Time Machine; I just want to take a few important files (cache profiles, e-mail, etc.). [Did the reinstall because my system was flawed and nothing else I did fix it.] [The story is here:beachball recurring in all applications in Lion, finally freezes iMac]

  When I open Time Machine on my 'new' machine and turn it on, he says he has no previous backups, but begins to make its first backup in 120 seconds. There is no option to "enter" Time Machine and recover individual files.

  I then turn off Time Machine because I'm afraid that it will make a new backup and erase / unrecoverable my previous backups.

  The drive Time Machine target exists in disk utility. A 600 + files (backups, no doubt!) and verified without errors.

  Before the clean and reinstall Time Machine worked perfectly. I have test-recovered some files and everything was good.

  How do I introduce my iMac 'new' to my old backups Time Machine?

  Thank you

  Use tmutil inheritbackup such as described by the end Pondini in his FAQ, here: http://pondini.org/TM/B6.html. Follow the instructions in the blue box, entitled "inherit a backup. The is short and simple but please follow carefully.

  I believe that you won't always be able to restore individual files until that Time Machine backs up new, then let him. Once this is done, you will have access to your old backups.

  Alternate procedure: since you can not keep this old backup after the restoration of the individual in any case files, you can hold a key option key while clicking the Time Machine in your Mac's menu bar. A option «Browse other backup disks...» ' will be displayed. What to choose.

• Formatting the HD and Time Machine backups

  My drive external hard Time Machine seems to be failing am so anxious to save my TM backups. I've already lost a few videos which was on a 40 GB partition, but backups on the 'main' score seem ok. In another thread, I discovered that the problem I have copy backups TM externally to another drive on an iMac is a problem because my MBP is formatted Mac OS X extended suburbs and the iMac is formatted Mac OS X extended (journaled).

  So, if I have reformatted the HD (journaled) MBP could reinstall Mt? or TM comes with original formatting?

  I think I have my answer. Looking through the guide of TM of Pondini I see that there is NO possibility of progress as I'd hoped.

  Since it is my laptop computer (MBPro) and information/data cannot be compromised, then it's time for a backup to disk somewhere image. It's just about 200GBs, then I'll have more information TM and hopefully again in the disk image.

  Once I have done disk image I'll reformat the hard disk, reinstall El Capitan and drag/levitate things of the image and/or the TM to backup and I hope have my machine back as is (but with good formatting).

  It is difficult for me to believe that 5TBs of storage here and there and it is not enough.

• 150:30 of error after you restore the backup CS4 Time Machine

  I bought a new Imac with OS X Maverick and put in place by using a backup from time machine. My Adobe CS4 now has a problem with the license and shows me the error: 150:30?

  I have to uninstall and reinstall CS4? Is there an easy solution to this problem?

  Thanks to everyone for help.

  Chris

  I have to uninstall and reinstall CS4?

  Unfortunately Yes.

  Also run the cleanup tool before reinstalling

  Use the CC cleaning tool to resolve installation problems. CC, CS3 - CS6

  Restoring backups Time Machine invariably breaks the activation mechanism (error 150:30) and there is no easy way to correct an error of 150:30 otherwise than by the re-installation.

• Why finder hide Documents and office files in the home directory of the user by activating iCloud drive? What about the behavior of Time Machine backup or third-party applications?

  I'm under MacOS Sierra. I am connected to my iCloud account. I activated the option Desktop and Documents, but I did NOT activate the option optimize Mac storage, because I wanted to make sure that all my files would be available locally, just in case, I would need to work without an internet connection.

  -J' noticed there now a menu iCloud in my sidebar in the Finder, with links to Documents and desktop.

  -J' also noticed that Documents is no longer presented in my favorites in my side bar of the Finder.

  -This last suggests that files saved in 'Documents' are not saved more on my HD... but only in iCloud, which isn't what I want.

  -Then, sailing in the Finder Macintosh HD/users / 'My account' /, I noticed that my Documents and desktop folders are more visible, as if these files are not saved in my home folder most. Which raises the question: where are My Documents and files on my HD, so they are still?

  -Using a shell session in the terminal and again navigate to/Users / 'My account' /, I noticed that my Documents and desktop folders are still there. Which suggest that records and records of office reside actually still in my home folder under users, but Finder actually hide it and present them as being stored in iCloud only disc. It's very confusing.

  This raises several questions:

  -In the first place, why Apple hide Documents and office files in the directory? Why not view these folders in iCloud and directory?

  -Whence the iCloud folder or drive, reside actually on my hard drive?

  -What time Machine. Is it still back up my document files and folders?

  -What games third-party app mirroring backup of My Documents files and folders? They still work properly? (I use Livedrive backup and Sugarsync for files mirrored across several macs).

  -How can I understand that Apple is doing with my folders and files? Some users might be happy with the iCloud drive concept, without worrying about how it works, but I don't take chances, and I want to keep a good understanding about the functioning of my system.

  Could someone explain what is exactly happening?

  With office and selected Documents, access to these files are now in the iCloud Drive, not in your home folder.

  My guess would be that they do not appear in your file because it would be confusing for many people to make them in two places.

  If you want in the Favorites, open iCloud Drive and drag them in the sidebar here.

  All about iCloud drive has been saved on your Mac. With the exception of the office and the Documents, they are in ~/Library/Mobile Documents. However, if you choose optimized storage, older documents are removed from your Mac. I don't know what is "old".

  ~/Documents and ~/desktop have new metadata indicating probably Finder does not display them in a Finder window, only in iCloud drive. They are not hidden in one of the normal methods of unix.

  I have not tested Time Machine or any other backup program. The folder still exist in your directory home, and they still have all the files, I don't think that changes anything.

• Requests that are lost during the restoration of time machine

  For example, recently my laptop (MacBookPro7, 1.) Intel Core 2 Duo. 2.4 GHz. memory to 6 GB) came up with a message saying to upgrade to el capitan, and after some research to see if my computer were compatible (OS X 10.6.8) I've updated. However, I found that many things had changed in ways that I didn't like as well as my laptop is slow. So I watched it come back back and followed the instructions of restoration (command-R, choose the time machine backup, etc.). Unfortunately since doing so, I lost many of my applications provided with the computer, and I can not find them even in the applications folder (Calculator, preferences system, overview and a few others), I have also noticed that when I try to access the time machine preferences or system preferences they come in the form of files called content and there is no way to access it.

  If anyone knows how I can find my apps or even be able to access the settings, it would be much appreciated. I'm too scared to try redownload things where it makes things worse. However, I tried to go back and restore from time machine once again, but after having tried several times in vain to get to the right section again once I gave up.

  Boot into Recovery (R command) and re-install OS X on top of your existing operating system.

• calculation of the space of time machine

  I'm not to give lectures on safeguards. Before yesterday I made a backup on a disk IDE 80 GB about 2 years ago, and I got my MBP since I bought it in mid-2009. Recently, I tried a new backup on the same drive, but my data were passed to about 150 GB, so TM reported that there was not enough space. This is why I bought a 250 GB SATA drive and started the backup. TM was told he had 150 GB for backup and that it would take about 5 hours. In an hour or two it was over and the amount of space occupied on the SATA was just below 80 Gb. Strange - I think - but everything seemed ok. I used the disk utility to check the SATA and he said it was ok. Then, I connected the HDD IDE 80 GB, erased all the data and set as the backup in MT and Mt finally told me that he had 150 GB for backup and the 80 GB drive has been insufficient. What is going on? Is it possible that I can check that the SATA drive contains a full backup? (Note that I did not exclude anything to save.)

  I've seen similar and I suspect the backup that you did on the largest disk is correct. Time Machine backup of data, applications and operating system, but there are a lot of things, he's not back until - caches, mobile backups and other files of the operating system or applications can recreate. Algorithm of TM to estimate the amount of space required does not appear, however, to take into account the files, it won't save.

• Without titles, generators or themes since the restoration of Time Machine

  Mac froze on startup.  Had to full restore from Time Machine.  Since then in FCPX 10.2/3 has experienced frequent crashes while trying to open some events. Now, I also know that there are no titles, generators or themes more.  Help recover. What should I do?

  Thanks for any help.
