Time Machine lets you restore files from local snapshots of the files on your Mac, even when your Time Machine backup disk isn't available....
I keep getting this error message " Time Machine couldn't back up to ' Time Machine .'" OS Monterrey 12.4, latest. I'm using a Seagate Backup Hub Plus external drive and it has been performing backups perfectly but I'm now getting close to the 6 TB limit of storage (5.945 used) and no matter what I do it will not add any new backups, even though it's supposed to delete the oldest backup. So, here's my question: Isn't TM supposed to delete the earliest backups to make room for the latest backup...
If Time Machine says that it can't use your backup disk to back up or restore your files, try these solutions.
I back up to a local disk already using Time Machine , I am thinking maybe it is better to backup to iCloud. Can my MacBook Pro (Mid 2015) be backed up to the iCloud?...
I made a Time Machine backup before upgrading to Monterey, immediately knew it was a mistake as I couldn’t even use the browser without beach balls so last night I started the process of going back to my saved Time Machine backup. it froze midway through, sat at the halfway mark for 8 hours and eventually I pulled the plug this morning after it sitting all night and making no progress - now I can’t load it at all, it won’t boot the loading bar gets to about 50% and stops so I can’t use...
Can I back my Macbook up to iCloud Drive using Time Machine ?
Hi, I work with a iMac model 19.1 (Monetery) with a 1 TB harddisk. For my backup I use an external Seagate 2 TB harddisk. Since 2 weeks time machine can't finish the daily backups. I have searched the internet but I can't find a solution to this problem. For some reason Time Machine can't delete older backups in order to make a new daily backup. Can somebody tell me how to tckle this peoblem?...
2020 MBP 13” M1 251 GB sad storage. I have 2.55 GB of free space. I cannot update macOS to 12 4 due to lack of storage. Reformatted Toshiba 1 TB HDD for 860 GB of time Machine and remained to exFAT for portable use of PC and Mac files. No joy on backup attempt. Received message that said no room on Macintosh HD it is almost full. Next external drive WD 4TB Passport for Mac. Same results. Please explain like I’m 5 how to do this so it works. I would like to use the 1 TB Toshiba to backup...
I have a 5T LaCie external drive that has been used as my backup device for my Time Machine and I have been reading about starting up my new iMac using Time machine . Can I simply plug the drive into the iMac then turn on the computer and let it transfer everything over the weekend? Do I have to tell the computer to make transfer or does it happen automatically? If I must tell the iMac to make the transfer do I use the entity called "Migrate" (don't recall what it is called) Please advise...
What size disk is needed for time machine backup
I use TM with an external USB drive that I plug in every night before going to bed. The initial backup is small and quick. But when I wake up in the morning TM is working on a new backup and is only about 30% finished and seems to be backing up about 4GB of data. What could be causing this? I use Blackblaze but it runs all the time and if that was the problem the initial backup wouldn't be normal. I have Norton 360 on my Macbook but, again, it runs all the time and doesn't affect the initial...
I have Time Machine on a Seagate one touch 4GB drive and I can’t access it. I’ve tried to run disc repair and it works fine on the main disk but not on the lower level disc. IMac is running Catalina and it’s the second Seagate drive that has had problems in the last few days....
//www.cleverfiles.com/howto/top-free-backup-software.html. Top of their list is “Disk Drill”, second is Apple’s own Time Machine , both of which they seem to like. However, further down the page they have a table of what they call “theoretical situations where each software would come in handy” and they say the following about Time Machine : “Use it if…” “You’re not currently or soon upgrading to High Sierra (HFS/HFS+ Time Machine backups don’t work on APFS drives).”. This is not mentioned in the main section...
Google Chrome on my Macbook updated itself and now all my bookmarks and history files are gone. Can I restore the old app from timemachine ? Would appreciate the steps if possible. Thanks. [Re-Titled by Moderator]...
How Do I COPY photos onto an external drive-- not a time machine ? I want to keep the photos in the Photo App. I will transfer photos from the external drive to another Apple computer...
I'm hoping I can articulate my dilemma and question clearly and succinctly; it has been a while since the fiasco began. Fingers crossed. My external HD was nearly out of storage space, almost entirely due to Time Machine backups. I researched all the methods of erasing old backups no longer needed (the majority of them.) I began deleting old backups the standard way- one at a time - through Time Machine itself. Like many (judging from the many comment threads about this in forums and message...
