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?

Tip: I don't want

  • 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 *:

  • 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.

  • Time Machine restore on nine hard drive Crash

    Hi people, so here is the scenerio... End model 2009 IMac 3.06 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, screen 21 1/2 in., 500 GB, 12 GB of ram installed, the year has been saved on external hard drive Time Machine 2 giga... 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

    so I started fresh and installed the operating system and set to update all the way up to 10.11.2 el captain (of the installation disc 10.6.1) so the material looks good, but I really need my system to the way it was, music, ITunes, Safari and registered Web sites and my files important work

    I just did a check for first aid at the back of the drive, come good... any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks

    Is there any system or Crash logs from the time of the TM install crash?

  • El Capitan upgrade crash & loss of backup Time Machine

    I have a 2008 MBP running Yosemite and back up to a Time Capsule. Last week, I noticed weird problems with connectivity and slow performance. Last week, I started receiving messages that the Time Machine backup failed.

    I decided to upgrade to El Capitan in the hope to solve weird problems I saw. I checked in the application Time Machine that my last backup was March 28, so I proceeded with the upgrade.

    The upgrade of the El Capitan crashed and I got an error report. I tried several of the fixes available online (hold Shift and start in safe mode to complete installation, command-R and reloading the OS X). Nothing has worked.

    I finally decided to go back to my backup TM start over and try again. I held command-R and got in the start menu. I chose to restore from a backup Time Machine, which has been connected to my TM. However, my TM shows that my latest backup is 28 July 2015. It is a huge problem...

    How is it, I was warned never between July and March that backups are not working?

    Why TM would show that I had a valid backup on 28 March, when its not available in the restoration of the process?

    I am at a loss. I am trying to restart in safe mode to see if my files are still on my local HD, but who is locked up.

    Can you please advise what to do? Thank you.

    Time Machine is less reliable.

    I advise the people now to create a clone of their computer startup drive bootable using an application like Carbon Copy Cloner... immensely more reliable than TM.

    Which of course is useless for you now.

    My advice is to put the current hard drive of the computer replaced. It is likely that the installation failed (and your previous operating system was in place) because of the disk hard defective... they are cheap and readers are now extremely better than 2008 if the laptop is on the original drive.

    Clean, install the OS on the new drive, then connect the old hard drive to the computer using a sata cable USB... drive bracket / speaker.

    Then you're going to see how good or bad it is... and I hope that you can import (use the migration assistant) and get all of your files.

  • Contacts crashes when you enter Time Machine

    There is no work around for the following problem?  Or should I just wait for a fix from Apple?

    I used Time Machine before retrieving the information from Contacts accidentally deleted or changed on our iMac.  Now when I try to do the same Contacts crashes.

    The screen starts to display the pages of Contacts who goes back in time, then return to the office. I am running the latest version of Mac OS X, El Capitan.  Reports were automatically sent to Apple - looks like a bug.

    Run the Console application in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Step 1

    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

    in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    List of newspapers seen ▹ display

    in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

    In the upper right corner of the Console window, there is a search box to filter. Enter the name of the application crashed or process. For example, if Safari has crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes).

    I know that the report is long, perhaps several hundred lines. Please report all this anyway.

  • Cannot open encrypted on Time Machine disk image

    I have an encrypted file protected by password in my Macbook Pro.  The folder name is "Enc.dmg" and is kept in the main Applications folder. If I remove the Time Machine backup before a dmg file, it seems theoretically to save.  But when I later enter Time Machine go to Applications and click on the Enc.dmg file, it opens; It is not mount the disk image and invite me to enter the password.  Instead, a non-functional information is displayed.  The box contains unnecessary information. He tells me it's a dmg file.

    If ever, my computer crashes or is lost or stolen and I can't access my file encrypted on Time Machine, I'll be in big trouble.  Is it possible to actually make a dmg properly function in mode Time Machine?

    You restore the file before trying to open it? It should not open in Time Machine.

  • 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.

  • I want to go back to El Capitan Yosemite, but I don't have a return upwards on Time Machine. Can you please explain what I can do to get back to Yosemite. Thank you

    I would like to return to Yosemite to El Capitan as my v5 Adobe Photoshop crashes constantly, as now seems to be unstable since upgrading to El Capitan.

    Unfortunately I do not have a back up of my laptop on Time Machine (stupid, I know), so how can I do for the reversal, please?

    Make a backup before installing, preferable 2 backups on 2 different disks.

    Go to the App Store purchases tab and download Yosemite. You will be probably get says can't you install it, but download it anyway. The program below to create a bootable USB key. Boot from the Flash drive, run the check/repair disk utility and repair permissions until you get no errors.  Reformat the hard disk using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS extended (journaled), then click on the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the operating system. Use the installation wizard to restore your Time Machine data.

  • Time Machine destruction by file type?

    Is it possible to find files on the Machine of time per file type (in this case the .psd files) and delete them? PSD eat huge amounts of storage, so I convert to JPEG for the photo archives.

    DO NOT delete the backups Time Machine! Time Machine will do this automatically, enter TM and edit it by removing backups may make TM crash against the purpose of having a backup plan. If you think you need more space then get a bigger DHM and move your TM top backup history. It is relatively simple and inexpensive to do.

  • The problem of migration of Time Machine. Help!

    Dear Group,

    I have a situation that requires advice.

    Try to restore my iPhoto library (119GB) backup Time Machine from an old macbook that crashed.

    But my new macbook is only 150 GB, has no space and too costly to extend storage.

    I tried to copy the library directly from the backup files, but that doesn't seem to work with some 50% missing/illegible photos.

    I bought an external hard drive (1 TB) and I was wondering if anyone knows how can I move the iPhoto (119GB) library in the external hard drive?

    Apple migration assistant only allows me to migrate on the new macbook that is too small to contain pictures.

    I hope to migrate in the external hard drive and access my library of this player in the future.

    All tips are very much appreciated!

    Is that iPhoto iPhoto or iPhoto Photos?  https://www.Apple.com/support/Mac-apps/photos/
