  Hi guys,.

  I have the ReadyNas duo v1 set for Time Machine and after a clean install of Yosemite I can't access my data.

  I have finally reached my backup via Time Machine, it was temporary unavailable yesterday.

  Thank you guys!

• Time Machine backup after the installation of the Sierra

  I installed Sierra, which lasted 1 hour and went well. Everything was in place. I did a clean install with El Capitan, so I've updated with Sierra. I connected external drive, kept saying PREPARATION BACKUP, but she never did.  Just stuck.

  Does anyone else have this problem?

  Resolution?

  It is normal for a backup after an upgrade of the operating system to take some time.

  Please read If a backup time Machine takes longer than you expect and Sierra macOS: If Time Machine is slow.

• Time Machine crashes

  Looking in my journal I find this:
  com Apple.backupd: waiting for index or loan (100)

  After consultation with google I find that the problem is probably related to a disconnection from the backup disk that happened earlier today, when I accidentally stumbled upon the USB when fixing my iPhone.

  I barely touched, but it was enough to cause a disconnect.

  I ' t may be something else though because it seems a little far fetched that a simple disconnect/connect must

  cause such a catastrophic failure like that.

  This post describes how Time Machine can lead to corrupted data when they are exposed to accidents:

  Re: Time Machine 'Waiting for the index to be ready': what it really means?

  If this is the case, then it tells me that Time Machine is not capable of handling disconnects and auto resume.

  I'm guessing that disconnects happen every day to thousands of users of the time Machine.

  So I'm expecting Time Machine to use a fault-tolerant Protocol.

  Maybe it's not.

  Now, I get multiple instances of "com.apple.backupd: waiting for index be ready (100)" in my log file.

  Even if the projector is not indexing.

  It took about an hour to save 3 KB of data.

  Wow
  I'm NOT surprised!

  I should also mention that I added all external drives including the backup drive to the exclusion of Spotlight list.
  So they must not interfere with the backup.
  However, when you add the backup drive, I received the message:

  "My Passport for Mac ' is a Time Machine backup drive.

  Spotlight will continue to search for Time Machine backups but seek no other items on the disk.

  But why must it seek the backups at all.
  Why would I want an index of my backup files?

• Time Machine crashes during backup

  Hi all

  I have a crush of Promise Raid connected to a Mini Mac OS X Server 10.9.5 (Mavericks) running. I have two volumes of backup Time Machine, 1 is a partition of the Raid itself, and the other is a 5 TB USB external drive. The goal was to have Time Machine backup ping-pong between the two. And for a while, that's how it worked.

  After about a week of reliable backup, Time Machine will now just hang it on a point in the backup and do nothing. I let it run for as long as 2 weeks just to be sure, but it never moves. I have to jump the backup. Then, it hangs on the other disk in the same exact spot.

  I tried to reformat completely each player and the best I've managed to do is backup successfully for nearly a week. Readers have enough space, but for some reason, the backup no longer works.

  I've been struggling with this for over a year without success. The worst is that when I think that I have work, I return back to retrieve something and find that he has not worked for a week (or more). Very frustrating.

  At this point, I'm looking in a 3rd party like Carbon Copy Cloner utility. But I like the ease and the Time Machine product structure. We do hard backups on DVD, so it's really just for jobs, we kept on our server that exist for about a month before be saved permanently.

  Thanks for the help,

  Rob

  I think maybe it's time to give up that hard drive and get a new start.  You might be able to fix it, but I wouldn't try to fix it without already having another backup in place.    The fact that it failed sporadically for more than a year is not a good thing.  Always have at least two copies of any data that is essential at all times *:

• Weird Time Machine question after restoration

  Hi all

  First post here so go easy on me

  I'll try and make this as brief as possible.

  I've been running an iMac 27 "2010 end (still running Lion 10.7.5, but it is stable so I have not found the need to modernize) and NAS from Synology DS212j with TB 2 * 3 disks for the last 3 years. I've set up time service Machine through DSM on the Synology with a quota of 1 200 GB for my iMac which worked perfectly while all the time, during which I restored the weird file without problem.

  Recently, for a number of reasons, I felt the need to update the OS of El Capitan to provide specific features that only there, so I made sure that my last backup was not serious and went through the upgrade process. It took a while but seems fine, but in the end, I became artifacts of the screen during the exchange between the office computers and for the worse, completely locked Mail machine as soon as you have clicked on an email. A lot of research on Google and all the patches applied but no joy, I decided to restore Lion and watch a clean install of El Crappo thereafter.

  At through the process of full restoration without problem and he has restored from the DS212j without a single question (took about 14 hours but again, it worked) and my Mac was back as if nothing ever happened. Happy days!

  Shortly after that, although the problem started with Time Machine backups do not tell me that there is not enough space on the destination to save my machine...

  1. I look into my quota on the NAS (the bit you set to ensure that backups are not the entire disk) and it tells me that there are 820 used GB which I guess is my backups Time Machine original that nothing should have changed on the NAS.

  2. I don't seem to be able to see the Time Capsule shared queue Station disk even after display in shared folders, it should he appear?

  3. I unhid it and he could ride through cmd & k and using smb / / nom_lecteur/Time Capsule so I can now see the volume in the Finder.

  4. I can see there are 2 * sparsebundle files, one for my iMac and the other for Macbook Air my wife. The file for mine displays a last updated date/time of a few minutes ago, but no size of file. The woman shows well, last time/date and file size (he stayed very well throughout this btw).

  5. when I enter Time Machine on the iMac all my historical incremental backups have disappeared and the only backup who shows also available is the date to which I restored from, nothing before and obviously nothing after because there is no space.

  I have not a clue what going on here, but it seems to me like it after restoring my sparsebundle file (which is always on the NAS and must be intact) is there, but for some reason the iMac cannot see/index / register or see one of the backups that are contained in.

  Apple support tried to help but actually said that they don't support anything other than an official time Capsule and Synology must implement the Time Machine in a different way because he could not find the sparesebundle file, only the tf volume content when it is mounted by trying to start the backup.  From what I read and checked the forums of Synology and the sheets, they don't do anything outside the norm with regard to the Time Machine application, it's literally just a network volume that stores the sparesebundle in the same Apple so designed, then why on Earth after restoring my iMac do not see the content of this sparsebundle file , and why it consumes disk space?

  So, what I'm looking for help, is this (or questions):

  A. How do I look inside the time Capsule (this is what I call the Time Machine shared disk) to see how many files is there and if there is a GB 820 that contains all the data from my legacy?

  B. someone at - it an idea how the iMac see and recognize the original file should be here?

  C. If I were to remove the rare bundle that I peut see, will that potentially be old and will be that free space that is held open and allow me to perform a full backup from scratch?

  D. If C is not the original file remains hidden, no idea how I can find...?

  E. do I have other options that you can think of...?

  Sorry, that was supposed to be brief, but I wanted to make sure I had all the info there to allow people to understand what has happened and what I did to try to resolve so far.

  Thanks in advance

  See you soon

• 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.

• Backups Time Machine missing after model clean install

  For a Mac using Time Machine to back up, is there a way to clean install OS X for a new internal SSD and keeps backups Time Machine historical which have been made using the previous internal SSD?  While as I use it to back up the new internal SSD TM, TM will show the backup history of both the previous internal SSD and the new (up to the capacity of the disc from the TimeCapsule).

  MacBookPro8, 2 I used Time Machine on a time Capsule TB 3 towards the rear for 2 years. No problems and shows 2.24 available 3 TB.

  Last night I did a clean model 10.11.5 install a new SSD, and a transfer application, the user accounts Migration Wizard, etc. Since the previous flash SSD disk internal (format / installed the new SSD, attached to the internal SSD previous via USB flash disk, then started in Recovery Mode to clean the installation model to the new internal SSD and when prompted did the previous internal SSD Migration Assistant).

  Everything no problem above went very well. But now when I "TimeMachine enter", I see that the most recent backup made (before the clean install).  The right navigation (which goes in reverse chronological order of the lower part of the screen to the top) seems to show the date on which the previous backups have been identified.  But if I click on a date, TM Finder main window does not scroll from that date. The top / arrow down buttons to the right of the main window of Finder TM also do not respond to clicks.

  So far as I can tell, I've lost all TM backups except the most recent. I have all saved data elsewhere outside time Capsule, so between that and the 1 backup, I can see in TM I have not lost anything.

  If I had done the Migration Wizard from the TimeCapsule rather than the previous internal SSD flash drive, would that have kept all historical TM backups?

  Thanks for any idea

  Time Machine, please press the shift-command-C key combination. The windshield will show the mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible. Select the one you want and search for files to restore.

  If you need to restore from a backup of the hidden user library folder, first select a snapshot, and then press shift-command-G. A go to the folder dialog box opens. In this document, you enter the path to the folder. The dialog box will help you by automatically filling parts of the path when you start typing.

  The path starts with the slash character ("/"). Enter that. The rest of the parts is separated by slashes.

  The next part is the date and time of the current snapshot. Enter a '2', and the rest of the date should be filled in automatically. Press the right arrow key to access the end of the path. Enter a slash to start the next game.

  Next is the volume name (usually "Macintosh HD" unless you assigned a different name.) Start typing, then jump to the end and enter a slash.

  The next part is 'Users', followed by a slash.

  Then is your short user name. It is also the name of your home folder, which is represented by an icon of the House in the sidebar of a Finder window.

  Finally, enter "Library", and then press return. You should now be in the library folder. From there, you can move like in the Finder. You can also select another snapshot of the same folder.

• Backups Time Machine huge after importing the photos

  Hello world

  I noticed that whenever I have import pictures (usually about 3-5 with a few MB each, taken with my iPhone 5 s) the next time tracks TM backs up a huge 50 + GB. I thought that TM would be smart enough to detect only changes in the bundle of photo library? My library is currently 138 GB in size, so whenever I have add a few new images TM is save half of this new.

  What are your experiences?

  Thank you

  Björn

  When you make changes to the content of Photos, is not only a few additions that change, but also databases which keeps the pictures. TM stores incremental changes.

  Personally, I don't bother watching over Time Machine. He seems to know what to do without my supervision

• Time machine crashes during the attempt to remove backup

  Hello people,

  Recently trying to remove a TM backup my machine freezes completely upwards. This seems to happen after doing a delete in the morning, it after trying to delete another back up and my machine freezes.

  I can get it to unlock by slightly pressing the power switch on the back of my Imac, then the screen goes black for a moment, then turns on and I can make the choice to delete or remove the back upward.

  Can I delete a backup by day with questions, as soon as I try and do it again, it freezes.

  It was after my system boots every day.

  I'm on the latest version of OSX Yosemite.

  Suggestions for troubleshooting this problem would be appreciated.

  Removal of TM backups seem to be a very intense process for the machine and takes a long time. It is probably just processing information and take a lot of computer resources. And it should only be done for TM, or you will corrupt your backup.

  Why you try to manually delete the backups? This isn't a good idea.

The computer has been works fine, the only thing I had to improve more of hard drive space, bought a Seagate 2 TB, SSHD (ST2000DX001), checked with OWC internal drive and they said it was compatible, Swap out went good, but when I went to restore the new drive on a time Machine, the installation of the time machine crashed I tried 3 times

• Win 7 hangs after Time Machine restore - Fusion v8.02

  New to the group, but a user of merger for a long time on a MacBook Pro 2009.

  It's a little complicated, but here are the facts:

  I have experienced a complete hard drive failure but had the system saved Time machine. After installing the new drive (Samsung 850 EVO SSD, 500 GB), I installed Snow Leopard from a dvd. I then did a restore from Time Machine since the last backup and most things worked very well. However, when I started Fusion (v8.0 at the time), I got the blue screen of death in Windows 7. After a few attempts, he found a remedy that helped win 7 to start normally and everything seemed to work fine. So I decided to upgrade the OS to El Capitan, and I'm back to the blue screen of death of Win 7. Nothing I've tried has worked to get Windows started, I can't start even in Safe Mode.

  I tried a manual uninstall complete Fusion 8 and reinstalled, but no change. I don't have much on the partition for Windows, really, just 3 programs I can not run in OS X, no storage data here either. Time, as I see it, I have two choices: 1) do an another Time Machine restore and downgrade of El Capitan by returning to the previous configuration. (2) do a complete reinstallation of Windows 7 and Fusion.

  If there is a way to just do a reinstall of Windows, I'm ready for that, too. (However, since the upgrade of the El Capitan I can't use the optical dvd drive with all disks based on Windows... already reported)

  Any help would be appreciated.

  As a follow-up, not long after my post, I get a call from VmWare support. (I submitted a ticket) Most excellent service. She takes control of my computer remotely and speaks to me through a new facility and a new virtual machine. I had downloaded a new version of Win 7 for installation and all went well.

  During the conversation I forget I wanted to install Win 10, but my system was apparently not compatible due to a graphics card or driver. She informs me that she has a solution for this and I am trying to install Win 10.

  Besides the support of VMWare!

• Time Machine failed backup. What are alternative backup software?

  A MBP with 1 TB HD could not continue the Time Machine backup, after update OS X to El Capitan 10.11.6. Old backups TM are automatically removed because of the error checking. The MBP also failed to make a new backup TM.

  I guess I maybe need a reinstallation of the OS X. How is it safe to reinstall OS X 10.11.6 without a backup?  Any suggestion of a software disk cloning? (e.g. copy of carbon can make a clone of disc? How do I?)

  You should check the drive you used for Time Machine backups with disk utility > first aid to make sure that the disc is not serious. If you mean Carbon Copy clone, yes it can create clones. Instructions to create a clone are provided with the program.
