Time Machine periodically tells me it has not saved in two weeks

I have an iMac and a time Capsule, which are the only three months old. For the most part, they work together seamlessly to provide backups Time Machine. However, twice now, even though I know that I had regular hourly Time Machine backups, my computer informs me that Time Machine has not backed up in two weeks. And no backup is available. Time Machine then immediately starts a backup on my Time Capsule that takes a few hours. Once that ends, everything is back to normal, and my story any backup is available for me that this is supposed to be. And resume regular backups as usual.

What happens here? Is there anything I should do? Or stop doing? I'd appreciate any comments on this subject.

The problem is the reliability of the system network Apple is not particularly good.

Is the Mac directly related to TB by ethernet or wireless?

Is the TC the main router of the network so this is to distribute IP addresses?

The strange thing is that the internet still works, but the computer has lost the TC disk location and knows not where to find it again.

For reliable TM backups on an iMac, I highly recommend using the USB... self powered 2.5 "1 TB or 2 TB drive can be connected behind the mac and invisible to the world... who will be always available for the local system... While his brother of network in the TC will fluctuate in and out of existence.

Rather than flowing from my mouth (hand in this case)... Give me some screenshots of your configuration of TC airport utility.

I would say that a weekly of abandonment is part modern equipment of domestic quality network. But every day, it's ridiculous. Back to life is a pain, restart the computer to do things.

Tell us available to the entire network... this modem you have etc.

  • Time Machine the new disk transfer has not moved all the time

    I have a Time Machine backup to an external drive. It works very well. However, he was beginning to run out of space, so I bought a new, bigger HD.

    I followed all the steps of Time Machine: how to transfer backups from a current backup disk to a new backup drive - Apple Support.

    I then waited 12 hours for that copy.

    Around midnight, I noticed the copy is complete. There was a message that iWork had not been copied because he needed a different operating system. But I rejected. There are no other messages.

    I changed the Time Machine preferences on the new disk. And fell asleep.

    This morning, I walked into a Time Machine.

    Only the first date from July 2014, was on the new disc of TM. Then there was five times after midnight when the new drive was saved.

    But there is nothing in any of the years between the first date and after midnight.

    I know that there are hundreds of TM captures on the original disc. And I've used them very well.

    I tried to copy individual files from the old drive to TM to the new, but it is not possible to "change the backups."

  • Time Machine backup fails because "there is not enough space on the «DiskStation «»

    My backups regular TimeMachine to DiskStation stopped working a few months ago.  I thought it was because I ran out of space but now I installed an extra 1 TB RAID and I always get this error message.

    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.)

  • Help with Time Machine

    Although I've owned a mac for years, I started using Time Machine a few months ago only.

    For two weeks, I said that my backup disk was full. Today, I got the message that the backup failed and that yesterday was the most recent upward. a double click on the backup disk, I see the records dating back to November. However, when I get Time machine, I can only highlight yesterday.

    So, a few questions.

    1. the November record is really an existing back-up? Why do I see there, but not in Time Machine?

    2. I have several external hard drives that I use for Time Machine and I am interested in finding someone to help me with the best solution to achieve my goal. That is, to remove the 300 GB of photos I have on my internal hard drive to an external hard drive, while still supporting upward from my internal hard drive and a multimedia hard drive for Time Machine.

    I hope I can say this is not confusing.

    I have an internal 500 GB running 10.11.1 HD because I have pictures of some 300 GB internal hard disk, I only 6.66 GB of available space.

    I have 3 external drives available that I can use for the back upward. 1 TB, I got for Christmas and is not used for anything and 2 500 GB HDs... one of them is currently used for Time Machine. The other has a backup is no longer necessary, so I can be erased.

    In addition to using Time Machine to back up, I also pay a monthly fee for Crash Plan. Even though this was my home folder files, it does not back up the operating system. I can, however, point it to back up an external hard drive.

    Finally, these are my questions. To free up space on my internal hard drive, can I (should) move the photos off my internal HD (I don't use iphoto) and put them on an external HD and then have my internal HD and HD with photos backed up with TM? Would it not be better to transfer my photos on a 500 GB HD and then use the 1 TB (without this partitioning) to back up both the internal and external HDs?

    I hope that what I am asking is logical. Thanks to all those who want to take part of my ramblings and give a meaning to me.

    Respectfully,.

    Cayleen

    What I do with my Mac sounds a bit like what you ask to do with yours. I have:

    -Photos and movies on an external drive (500 GB on a 2 TB disk)

    -The rest of my data on the drive internal (approximately 300 GB on a 1 TB drive

    -The internal and external are saved on a third drive (3 TB) used for Time Machine.

    Everything works very well.

  • Time machine WiFi

    I tried to set up my Time Machine in wifi, but it has not been smoothly.  I heard going into this, it would be slower than the connection to my computer directly.  That being said, I plugged it physically to my MacBook and headed the first backup.  I then took and hooked up to my Mac Mini and accessed via the network and configure it to return here.  The problem, I ran in to is that it does not recognize it as the same player he already saved on when it has been connected to the MacBook when I connect it to the Mini.  Is it possible to have recognized, it already has and does not need to try to make a first new backup (which, at the speed he was going, would take more than one week)? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    You're talking about a USB?

    Or a Time Capsule? That is to say Apple router with a hard drive inside for Time Machine backups.

    If this is the first, you can't do what you did... I'm sorry.

    The time Machine uses a different method on local and network... drives a USB is plugged into your computer, it's local... when it is plugged into another computer and shared, it's network.

  • Time machine backup is too large, that is not true, said

    After the upgrade to OS Sierra, Time Machine always tells me that the backup is too big to fit on the external drive that I use. I erased the disc and checked all volumes, I don't want to back up. He always tells me that the backup is 2 TB.

    My boot drive has 155 GB in use, I do not understand why TM attempts to use 2 TB. I've removed the preferences, he always tells me that it is too big. The external drive has 1 TB of free space.

    Any suggestions?
