Time Machine replacement drive but can not see the old backups

Race X Server on 10.11.2 with 5.0.15

My Time Machine hard disk became full and I replaced it with a new, larger, in the car. I copied everything (using the Finder) from the old to the new drive and set it as the destination of Time Machine for a couple of Mac network.

I now have a 'new' backup, I don't see one of my old files when entering TM. I can't see my old backups that I copied the disk of TM "Daves Mac.sparsebundle" and alongside a new "Daves Mac 1.sparsebundle.

How can I continue to use the old backup data?

Thank you

"Dave."

On your Mac TimeMachine backup was severed with the sparsebundle backup on the server - which obviously you saw. If you run this command on one of your Mac you will see something like this (it's just for example).

$ tmutil destinationinfo

====================================================

Name: TimeMachine

Type: network

URL: afp://user@host._afpovertcp._tcp.local./TimeMachine

Mount point: / Volumes/TimeMachine

ID: 3167D1F3-9FE8-4369-B8CC-463B92F35438

The key is that there is an ID associated to backup to the Time Machine backup of service on your OS X Server. This ID is what Time Machine use when working with backups.

You need to 'reconnect', or 'reassociate', your client computer for backup sparsebundle. The page for command tmutil...

"Machine directories sparsebundles belong to one computer at a time and are followed by unique identifiers rather than the computer name, host name or address ethernet. The verb inheritbackup reassigns the identity of the specified element, reconfiguring so that the current host, he acknowledges during backups. »

I found a site for you who has detailed instructions for this. I can't confirm if these procedures work that I have not tested it me then please read the instructions carefully and proceed at your own risk! The author however looks like it includes the concepts involved.

Could bring you to everyone how it happened for you and if the operation is successful, mark it resolved in order to verify that the instructions on the site Internet has worked

  • New mac connects to the time capsule but does not see the old backups

    My new MacBook Pro connects perfectly to my Time Capsule, but it is not all backups that are there.  I can't scroll through them as I can with my old MacBook Pro.  The MacBook still connect to Time Capsule well and see and scroll through all the backups it.

    No idea why?

    I wish that my new mac to be able to go back through the backups as does my current MacBook.

    Thanks for any help.

    Since El Capo OS a lot stricter security.

    You will generally not be able to simply use a backup Time old Machine as you did in the past.

    Backups made by different computers must be used via migration assistant... not just opened in TM.

    However, you can always copy a file or folder, you must manually via the Finder... ride the sparsebundle and access... If you have issues copy folder in the form of TM and then paste it in Finder... There are different ways to trick the it.

  • I am trying to print PDFS from Safari, but can not see the page numbers

    I just opened a document PDF 700 + pages in Safari and need to print the odd pages and there, but I can't see the page numbers displayed when I scroll the document. When I view the same document on an iPad, the page numbers change when I scroll but on my iMac (with the help of Safari 10) they appear not at all - and 700 + pages is a lot to go wrong! The clues how I can spend on 'display the page number?

    The default Apple PDF Internet plug-in used by Safari does not display the page numbers (except if they are in the footer of the PDF document in question), and there is no setting in Safari preferences to turn on this feature. Your best bet is to download the PDF file, then open it in preview or Acrobat Reader, where the thumbnails will be the correlation to page numbers. Then you can select several arbitrary thumbnails using the control button to print those selected pages. In the Pages section of the print Panel, you select "Selected Pages in the sidebar".

    The PDF Internet plug-in installed by Adobe Acrobat Reader or Pro displays the page current and total page in its turnaround Panel. If there are page numbers in the footer of the PDF file accessed, they are not deleted. You must enable Internet Adobe plug-in to Safari preferences: Security Panel.

  • Replaced the HARD drive, but can not reinstall the operating system

    Evening,

    I replaced the HARD drive on my laptop and used the sony recovery media kit, but the error message "can not configure windows to run on this hardware of computers.

    The HARD drive is a Toshiba of the same style and size. Sony sent me two sets of disks, I replaced the HARD drive twice still have exactly the same problem.

    Any ideas before using it as a target would be useful.

    Thank you

    It is possible that the new hard drive, you bought are 4 k sectors and not 512 KB, which is necessary to make it work properly.  If you have a practical clean Windows installation disc that give a try and see if you encounter the same error...

  • Try to add the hard file to the inventory, but can not see the file

    I am trying to add a hard file that someone gave me to my inventory.  I have already downloaded the file of the VM containing the hard file in my data store.  Now, I want to have it in my inventory.  I tried to add a new virtual machine, go to the custom configuration, and then when I get to "Select a disk", I take the "use an existing virtual disk".  I sail in my data store and to see the folder of the virtual machine, but inside there is nothing! There is no hard file, but I know that it IS when I just browse the data of the Summary tab store.  What is going on?  Thank you.

    If you have an OVF, open the vSphere Client and select "Import" in the "File" menu to import the OVF. This should create a complete virtual machine for you.

  • HP LaserJet p3005n: HP laserjet p3005n needs to rest of the plant but can not see the screen

    I have a HP Laserjet p3005n printer which is stuck in a manual IP configuration and I need to be automatic. To make matters worse so broken screen I don't see menus. I'm also currently in a place out just a new buying is not an option. I managed to find a way to print the configuration files (Menu Down Down Down CONTROL) that allows me to check things out. I was wondering if someone can give the exact configuration of button to do a reset to factory or the exact key combination to change the IP config on auto. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

    OK, which means the down arrow once is not reset cold, it was to turn the onboard lan. Repeat the process and it should bring back the network. Then do it again, but the press down twice instead of once, and then click the OK button.

  • Can not see the whole clips on DVD

    Hello

    I recently created a project and it was engraved on a DVD. I can view the DVD very well, but can not see the entire width of the clips. I can see the entire width of the clips during playback on computer and TV. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Is the DVD 4:3 or 16:9 wide screen? What type of display you're displaying on - an old 4:3 CRT or a screen flat 16:9? What image is missing? Some televisions show a picture of overscan, part of the meaning of the image is lost under the bezel, unlike most computer monitors showing each pixel on the screen.
