Time Machine hooked up / slow down

I use a clean install of the OS X 10.11.2 leave a USB boot. Not an upgrade from an earlier version. I had used a NAS for the TM backup without incident so far. Since the machine is new, I started a complete backup of the TM. I noticed it seems to be suspended after about 430 GB. I deleted the sparsebundle to the NAS and started a new backup yesterday afternoon. My iMac is set to the computer keeping up when the screen is off. More internal SSD of the iMac, I have a USB 3.0 external hard drive connected with the added data, which I suppose is included in the TM backup. Preferences/Time Machine is showing "Backing up 431.55 1.51 to Go" and «Calculating time remaining...» "The entries of two console log I could find related to this are:

22/12/15 7:54:29.003'M com.apple.backupd - helper [968]: doesn't start is not at the request of backup Time Machine: running Backup

Interestingly, I was not able to find a log entry on the beginning of the TM backup.

Little Snitch provides very low flow to the SIN of 256 MB in the last hour. It was much higher when he started the backup yesterday. The network is 1 Gbps.

I noticed saving energy/system preferences had ' put to sleep when possible, hard drives "checked. "Enable the NAP" is also checked.

Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?

Thank you.

A device third-party network attached storage (NAS) or a router is unsuitable for use with Time Machine, especially if it's your only backup. I know that's not what you want to hear. I know that Time Machine accepts the device as a backup destination. I know that the manufacturer says the device will work with Time Machine, and I also know that it usually seems to work. Except when you are trying to restore and find that you can't.

Apple has published a specification for network devices that works with Time Machine. No third party provider, AFAIK, does meet this specification. They all use the application of Netatalk incomplete, obsolete Apple Filing Protocol.

Apple does not endorse any device third-party network for use with Time Machine. See this support article.

Network backup, use as destination an Apple Time Capsule or an external storage device connected to another Mac or a 802.11ac AirPort base station. Only 802.11ac base stations support time Machine, not older model.

Otherwise, use Time Machine at all. There are other ways to save, although none of them are nowhere near as effective or as well integrated with OS X. I don't have a specific recommendation.

If you are determined to continue to use the device with Time Machine, your only remedy for any resulting problem is the manufacturer (who will blame Apple, neither you nor anyone else but herself.)

  • Time Machine extremely slow after upgrade to El Cap

    Time Machine problem with upgrade to Yosemite to El Cap on a laptop MBPr 15 "mid-2012.

    Time Machine backup plan: by wifi or LAN cable for two different hard disks attached to a Mac Mini that is on the local network. Two USB mini drives would serve as a backup for a total of 4 Mac disks at home.

    Behavior of Time Machine in Yosemite: dead normal. Backups were fast (10 Mbit/s in wifi, 80 MB/s when I plugged the MBPr on my LAN using a bolt of lightning for the Ethernet card.) Restored backups (I test them sometimes) fine.

    I upgraded yesterday to El Capitan. Behavior of the time Machine now: excruciatingly slow. All the steps (preparation, backup, cleanup) takes hours. My laptop was connected to the wired LAN for 9 hours now and is only 1.26 GB thanks to a backup of 3.82 GB. Speed (from MenuMeters) is under 10 KB/sec - Yes, it is * kilogram * bytes/s.

    Speed of transfer of files between the two machines via drag & drop is very good, ~80MB/sec both on the LAN, about 12 MB/s in wifi. Laptop computer interacts with the web at normal speeds. It does not appear that Time Machine, which is watered, and only on my laptop of Capitaned newly-El. My other domestic machines (all on Yosemite still) back up normally.

    I tried:

    -power / reboot both machines.

    -power / restart the LAN together.

    -cycle Time Machine power switch in the Prefs system.

    -Remove the two drives as backup targets TM laptop, then re - specify with preferences TM;

    -other things that I found through the search for this problem.

    It is a common problem in judging by the many valuation model who met it. I searched a lot and found nothing that helped me.

    I can't work without a viable backup. For now, I use Carbon Copy Cloner to duplicate my SSD MBPr for an external hard drive. Not really satisfying.

    Did someone solved this problem? Can someone tell me or suggest a solution? Thank you very much!

    Please make a copy of test in the Finder of the source for the backup volume. Is it too slow? Delete the files copied from the backup volume after the test.

    This CD contains an image of Toshiba, which has been preinstalled on the laptop at the beginning.

    Just boot from the recovery CD and follow the instructions on the screen

    But note; the recovery CD would format the whole HARD drive. So you backup important data first if you need it at a later time.

    Try to use the Time Machine application to see if the backup is loading properly. If so, your backups should be good. You can also go into the Time Machine menu, while holding down the option/alt key and select verify backups. For more information of reset, see A4 & A5 in the first linked article.

  • Slow down or frozen system when you run Time Machine

    My entire system has been slow and I'm getting a lot of beach balls and frozen software/accidents of spinning. It is also slow to wake up and sometimes freezes when I try to log on my user account. I tried a number of things - routine maintenance, looking at activity monitor to see what is using RAM, reinstall MS Office, upgrade to El Capitan and two trips to the Genius Bar-(who showed none of the software or obvious hardware problems). Sort of, I noticed that when I run backup TM, the machine seems to be the slowest. I bought a new backup disk - thinking it was my external HD itself which was not (it is several years old) - but this does not appear to have solved the problem. And the machine ran faster in the Apple Store at home (of course) when my outside was not plugged.

    Anyone seen this before? Is it possible to 'clean up' Time Machine in case that is what is at the root of the problem?

    The genius of Apple suggested that he could be something corrupted in my user account and not related to TM, but not to delete my account, he had no any solution!

  • Backups Time Machine very slow on 2015 MacBook Air

    Associated with a topic of discussion between a few days ago (two MacBooks, 10.11.4, a fast Time Machine backup and a very slow), I start a new topic with new information that seem to show it is a problem more general and not related to Time Machine networks.

    Here's the situation:

    • A 2015 MacBook Air, 10.11.4, 8 GB / 512 GB, has extremely slow performance of backup Time Machine, taking 40 hours for the first 300 GB backup and incremental backups for a long time as well
    • TM performance is essentially the same whether on the network (wired Ethernet) or a USB3 external disk
    • When you back up to disk USB3, I confirmed that the information system shows that the port is configured as USB3, not USB2 (nothing else is plugged into the USB port)
    • Tests of bandwidth I/O gross (using dd and iperf) show no problem; the network reached 110 MB/s bandwidth, written network managed at 50 Mbps, external USB3 HD written work at 40-50 MB/s (write hard drive speed limit)
    • 3 other Macs of various ages from 2009-2014 on the same network have no problem at all do backups Time Machine Network; a backup complete first on a 2011 MacBook Pro 500 GB takes 5 hours or more than 10 x faster than the MBA problem
    • Time machine network uses a Linux server running the latest Debian and Netatalk 3.1.8 and the connection is via a USB3/Gigabit adapter, no WiFi, and iperf tests with this arrangement shows 900 MB/s of throughput of the server.  In all cases, the Time Machine and external time Machine Network USB HD have the same symptoms.
    • The problem with MacBook Air is configured the same as the MacBook Pro 2011, which she replaced "daily driver", possible
    • This problem was shown by the MBA since his unboxing conversion, taking 20 hours for his first backup once Setup initially.  Incremental backups now take several hours, leading to interrupted incremental backups and, I believe, databases corrupted backup triggers new full backups that take today the 40 hours.

    Using Terminal Server and iostat, Console, etc, I see that there is significant activity e/s for the backup drive on the order of 20 to 40 MB/s for long periods on the MBA during the TM backup, but during that time the average declared backup size as shown in the window in the console and TM is growing by only 5 GB/hour.  This occur even if the backup will the external drive or a network drive. This seems to mean that the I/O bandwidth to and from the disk hard external, only 1/600 contributes to the progress of the backup.  I am sure that there is overload of certain checks and other tasks, but not to a 600-to-1 ratio.

    I tried to disable the limitation of the I/O of low priority as shown here: http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/212537/time-machine-ridiculously-slow-a close-el-capitan-upgrade, that helps a bit (maybe 20-30%), but not by a factor of 10 for others.

    I have gone through a number of the Time Machine of Pondini troubleshooting steps, but he found nothing corresponding to these symptoms.

    The only thing I can conclude is that Time Machine, the application or configuration, on this specific MBA, is down. (A single thought that I wrote this to the top that I have not tried: the MBA and the time MBP running VMware Fusion and have a file of 50 + GB VM; on the MBA that is not excluded from TM backups while on the MBP is)

    Does anyone have advice on what to watch next?  In all cases, only one key would be why it seems that only 0.16% of all the bandwidth I/O to the backup drive seems to be actual data backup.

    Once again, three other Macs, all running the same 10.11.4, back to the Time Machine Server perfectly and have for years.  Only this new MBA glue as broken out, either to a network drive or an external hard drive USB3.

    (A single thought that I wrote this to the top that I have not tried: the MBA and the time MBP running VMware Fusion and have a file of 50 + GB VM; on the MBA that is not excluded from TM backups while on the MBP is)

    What happens when you exclude it as the MBP?

    1. it worked before?

    2. the problem occurs when the wireless mouse is not connected?

    3. using a wireless connection? If so, follow the steps here.

    The issue may be caused by a weak wireless connection or wireless interference. Here are a few troubleshooting steps that you can try to solve:

    -Try to install fresh batteries.

    S ' ensure that the receiver is plugged directly to the USB port on the computer. Avoid using a USB hub.

    -Try different USB ports.

    -Check wireless interference. Check if there is no other wireless devices near the keyboard or receiver.

    -Logitech Wireless Mouse mouse power drain.

    -Remove the batteries.

    -Keep him idle for 10-15 sec.

  • Slow backup on Time Machine to Seagate Maxtor M3

    Hello

    I'm trying to save on a Seagate Maxtor M3 2 TB external, portable player using Airport Extreme and Time Machine, since my Mac Book Pro 13 "beginning 2015."

    Is 7 hours for a 91 GB a reasonable turnover?

    The backup seems to stop when the machine mode 'sleep', is there a way to keep it alive and back up, even with the black screen?

    Thank you very much in advance for any suggestions you may have.

    Kind regards.

    Hello Toni, I had this problem too. Your backup hard drive maybe a good speed, but the usb of the airport is only a USB 2 port, and he has always shown to be slow for me when I connect a hard drive in this way. My suggestion would be to go in on your mac Energy Saver preferences, and then select the power adapter. Then select never sleep. Then at night, turn your MacBook Pro on the charger and let it open. Then connect the backup hard drive, and it backs up during the night. Airports have shown to be a little weak in this area. In fact, my Airport stops working if I try to do.

  • Norton Antivirus slows down startup time in Windows Vista

    Hello

    need help please, I am led to madness by starting slow time of my laptop.
    I he had only a few weeks and don't use it for anything beyond to produce documents word etc.

    It has been gradually slower on boot and I suspect it has something to do with the protection of Norton antivirus on it software and updates for norton I downloaded (thinking that it was the right thing to do).

    Looking at the log for problems and solutions on the computer, the date on which he began really to slow coincides with downloading an update to norton, which I could not uninstall to check if that's really the problem.

    In addition, I tried to do a system restore, my laptop could not complete.
    I'm stuck on the screen of the BACK for 10 minutes with the message:
    PXE - E32 TFTP open timeout

    I have no idea what it means, but the newspaper issues and Solutions said something about a blocking of the system?

    I looked on the web for other virus protection software and they all seem to have a problem or slow computers and another down to the start.

    Did someone knows a solution or should I just make a cup of tea when I turn on my computer and lace with vodka until it is fully charged to the top!

    I am a novice when it comes to using computers so would like to receive technical advice.

    Thank you

    Hi guys

    I would like to add a few words about my experience using the Symantec Norton Antivirus software.
    I used this software long 3 years. It was great because it supports one of the best options for filtering viruses, BUT it really slow downs the operating system.
    I didn t use on preinstalled Vista laptop but on Win XP and I must say that the laptop boot process was stopped about 30 sec - 1 min until the entire parts of Norton Antivirus software has started, it is very annoying

    However, I went to AntiVir. It is described by marina4000 software and I really happy because the startup performance of m.

    So finally, I also recommend delete this Symantec Norton Antivirus software and switch to other free AntiVir software ;)

  • I2C communication slows down over time using USB-8451

    Hi all!

    I try to communicate via a device slave using a USB-8451 I2C and I noticed that after a while the communication speed slows way.

    I can send and receive data very well and apparently my system seems to work. But the problem is that over time the speed of data transfer slows down so much so that if I let it run all night it has slowed to a crawl in the morning. My ultimate goal is to gather data, draw and save every second and at the beginning it is easily achievable, but after 10-15 hours I can no longer collect data as fast I need. I'm not quite sure if this is a problem with my code LabVIEW, the NI USB-8451 box or the slave device. But if I stop running the LabVIEW program and start it again, everything returns to normal.

    The slave device is a personalized card with a microchip PIC which acts as a slave I2C and returns the data at the request of the master. I can't imagine anyone will be able to determine if this is a problem directly, but if we can rule out the other two (code LabVIEW or the NOR-8451) as the source of the problem so I know it's my slave device.

    I've greatly simplified the LabVIEW code that I used to collect data on I2C and I see even this gradual slowing down over time. Attached, it's that the very simplified VI and the data file, it produced. I only ran it for about 45 minutes, but from the beginning to the end we see again that the enforcement timeframe is rising.

    I hope I'm just doing something stupid, thanks in advance!

    -Aaron

    Aaron,

    Do not have the additional module responsible for these functions, but I'm sure I know whats going on.  It seems that each time through the loop 'OR-845 x I2C Create Configuration Reference.vi' creates a new reference.  After a while it will start to slow things down.  Better to open the reference before the while loop starts and spend just the reference in the loop.  Don't forget to close the reference after the loop stops.

    Let me add a clarification. If you duplicate a symbol in the control panel of the elements when you change something in one of them, this change also occurs in the other. Here are the instances of the same symbol. If you duplicate a symbol in the library, and then you change something in one, it will not affect the other. You have created a new symbol.
