Backed up Apps Read-Only

Why, when using Desktop Manager for Mac, are certain Apps deemed to be read-only after a back-up? And why is there no warning about the possibility of this before backing up?
I backed up to try to revert to an old system to find lost wordpad notes from when they were inexplicably wiped out when I updated to 5.0. When I came up empty handed and reverted to the current OS and restored, all my programs and notes etc. were gone.
Hard not to be cynical about the inefficiencies of backing up here.
Any suggestions on how to recover any shred of what I keep losing to the blackhole of blackberry updates and back-ups?

  • My book fails to back up says read only

    Can you please tell me how to correct the following problem: My Book  external back up which I bought from apple, displays Read only and Back up failed.
    Thank you in anticipation

    If you get the message "Backup not successful",  I had the same problem.
    My solution was to turn off some apps (Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap my device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options) and try a manual backup.  If it didn't work, turn off a few more apps and try a backup.  Keep doing that until the backup works.  Then try adding in some of the last batch of apps that were previously turned off - the objective is to find the app that causes the backup to fail.  For me, I suspect that the one app I found had a bad data file that, when included in the backup, caused the backup to quit.
    This can be a long process if you have a lot of apps that you originally turned on for backups.

  • Seagate back up plus read only?

    Hi, I have just acquired my mac book air and love it, and I bought a seagate back up  plus portable drive so I can download from my macbook air.
    i am a computer idiot ( sorry) and have registered my seagate through the computer, but it will not allow me to save anything to my seagate as it says read only and it will not save changes onto my seagate if i alter photos etc for same reason.
    Help please how can i get it out of read only please ?

    thank you for all your help.  I moved everything off my seagate and then formatted it and we are all working together beautifully now.
    I can't tell you how much your support gave the courage to try something I would never have attempted.  I am learning how to use my computer and love it even more.
    Thank you again, I am very grateful x

  • Back up Volume Read only

    My Time Capsule ha been working reasonably well for 3 months but I am now getting a message which says that my back-up volume is read only. Any suggestions?

    romor,
    “The Backup Volume is Read Only”
    For some this was cleared up with a simple reboot. For others it was not. Try the following:
    *Cold Reboot the Hard Disk*
    First, unmount the drive from the desktop.
    Power it down.
    Unplug it from the wall socket.
    Disconnect it from the computer.
    Wait 10 minutes.
    Plug it back in to the wall socket.
    Connect it back into the computer.
    Power it back up.
    When it reappears on the desktop try backing up again. This simple step has worked for some in this situation. Regrettably, most who experience this error have had to reformat their Time Machine hard disks. So prepare for this eventuality.
    If the above doesn’t work, let us know. We may have other options if you have access to another Mac.
    *Use “Get Info” to Change Permissions on 3rd-Party Hard Disks*
    Highlight the external hard disk on your desktop.
    Go up to the "File" menu and select "Get Info".
    At the bottom is "Sharing & Permissions".
    Click the little lock icon in the lower right and enter your Admin Password.
    Are you (Username) listed in the Name column? If not, add your user account with the tiny “+” button.
    What does it say under "Privilege" beside your name?
    If it is "Read only" change it to "Read & Write".
    Close "Get Info".
    Now try to backup.
    *By-Pass USB Hub*
    If you are using a USB hub, try by-passing the hub and connecting the external hard disk directly into your Mac.
    *For Time Capsule Users*
    Unfortunately, your going to have to reformat the TCs hard disk. While there are some convoluted procedures to recover from this error, for the average user they simply are not worth the time and effort. Just reformat and start over.
    *Reformat the TC Hard Disk*
    You can reformat the hard disk in the Time Capsule.
    Go to Airport Utility --> Manual Setup --> Disks --> Highlight "Time Capsule Disk" on the left --> Click "Erase" on the right.
    Rename the disk and select the level secure erasure. You're done and ready to begin backing up again.
    I would suggest connecting the TC directly to your Mac via ethernet. Your initial full backup will go much faster and doesn't fail nearly as often as trying to do it wirelessly. “If you have an Ethernet cable, you can perform your first backup to your Time Capsule via Ethernet; this will allow for the fastest initial backup especially with client computers that use 802.11b or 802.11g.” http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1176
    Hope this is helpful.

  • Roll back segments into READ-ONLY Mode

    To bring an v8 database into READ-ONLY Mode do we need to put the Roll back tablespace RBS also into READ-ONLY Mode?

    You can put database in READ ONLY mode in Oracle 8i
    READ ONLY / READ WRITE Example
    The first statement below opens the database in read-only mode.
    The second statement returns the database to read-write mode and clears the online redo logs:
    ALTER DATABASE OPEN READ ONLY;
    ALTER DATABASE OPEN READ WRITE RESETLOGS;---

  • Time Machine Back Up issue - read only?

    HI There,
    All of a sudden the Time machine could not complete the backup. it says
    Files can't be copied on to the backup disk because it appears to be read only.
    Any clue why that says that now all of a sudden?
    Thanks
    Carol

    That means your backups are corrupt.
    Try Repairing them (not permissions), per #A5 in the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.
    If Disk Utility can't repair them, or the +*Repair Disk+* button is grayed-out (meaning OSX has already decided it can't fix them), you're out of options. All you can do is delete the sparse bundle via the Finder, or erase the disk. Use +*Airport Utility.+* Select +*Base Station > Manual Set-Up+* from the Menubar, then Disks in the tool Bar, then Erase.

  • Back up volume read only error

    Was working perfectly, but now this error. using dick utility could not repair. . date stored on external disk. Attemped to erase disk but that failed with message about timeout. Any other options???

    Welcome to the Apple discussions.
    Did Disk Utility have a message about '...task reported failure...'? If yes, it means it can't fix the problem. Solution is either to try Disk Warrior, which will work if it's a data structure issue, but can fail if there is a hardware issue, or replace the failed/failing hard drive hardware.

  • Give the read only access to user on Apps Schemas!

    Hi,
    How we can create the database user and give the access on APPS schemas(INV, PO etc).
    Please assist me.
    Thanks,
    Faziarain

    Dear Hussein,
    I followed anil passi forum for creating apps read only schema , but only issue is we have multiorg enabled .
    what is the modification dowe need in this step.
    Step 4
    Write a after logon trigger on apps_query schema. The main purpose of this trigger is to alter the session to apps schema, such that the CurrentSchema will be set to apps for the session(whilst retaining apps_query restrictions).In doing so your logon will retain the permissions of apps_query schema(read_only). Howerver it will be able to reference the apps objects with exactly the same name as does a direct connection to apps schema.
    conn apps/&1 ;
    PROMPT CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER xx_apps_query_logon_trg
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER xx_apps_query_logon_trg
    --16Jun2006 By Anil Passi
    --Trigger to toggle schema to apps, but yet retaining apps_query resitrictions
    --Also sets the org_id
    AFTER logon ON apps_query.SCHEMA
    DECLARE

    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE
    'declare begin ' ||
    'dbms_application_info.set_client_info ( 101 ); end;';
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET CURRENT_SCHEMA =APPS';
    END;

  • Can not change files from "Read Only" In Windows 8.1

    I am the only Administrator on my computer, there are no other accounts. Some how all my files now have the read only attribute and I can not change it. It gives me the option to change it and I do and it looks like it got rid of it; but as soon as I close
    out of the properties window and go back into the read only attribute is still there.
    The read only attribute doesn't even act like itself because I can still edit the files that are in the selected read only folder. But it doesn't let me change the folder group options.
    None but one of these folders are customized so it is not a problem that can be resolved by the other threads I have read.
    Even new files I create have the read only attribute, please help, this is really annoying.

    Hi,
    For this problem, please refer to the KB below to repair the problem for test firstly, If no use, please feel free let us know.
    You cannot view or change the Read-only or the System attributes of folders in Windows Server 2003, in Windows XP, in Windows Vista or in Windows 7:

  • Backup Volume Read Only error 99% solution

    After about 2 months of the "Back Up Volume Read Only - select different volume..." issue, I found a 99% solution - or perhaps a fluke (I'm a mac newbie).
    My computer would back up about 1/2 of the 20gig's of files before failing. After removing the apostrophe, erasing, etc. I went to options and chose most of my files as "do not back up". What do you know, it finally worked.
    Then I went back and added the rest of the files back to the backup -- didn't work again.
    Long story short, after a few, fun filled hours, I triangulated down to one file in Documents (a circus pony notebook file) that will cause my backup to fail. If that file is in there, no backup. Take it out, no problem. btw, I have other notebook files that backup fine.
    Anyone have any suggestions besides leaving that file out forever?

  • After recently downgrading back to iOS 6.1.4 on my iPhone 5, I am trying to get back my apps but every time I go into the App Store it only shows the option "Open" for the apps that I had previously. The apps don't appear in my home screen. HELP

    After recently downgrading from iOS 7 back to iOS 6.1.4 on my iPhone whenever I go into the App Store to redownload my apps it only gives me the option "open" but I don't have the apps, therefore I don't HAve the app to open. Please help

    How can u downgrade. Apple doesn't allow that. Unless your iPhone 5 is jail broken.  iOS 7 isn't even out yet. There Is no way u can get iOS 7 unless it was beta. And if so beta is having some issues.

  • Is there a way to skip backing up Apps only???

    Seems from many threads/posts Apps are the main culprit in the sloooooooo
    back up process.
    Some people have disables back ups altogether. Others x out of the long back up.
    The back up has its obvious need if/when you need it.
    Is there a way to skip the App process only of the back up process?
    In that way you could do a full backup/sync of the iP with the exception of the Apps you've got.

    OK, then. Is there a way to repair my iP's screen after I put my foot through it?

  • I have spotty signal at my home, so some functions don't work until I leave the house. I noticed on the main screen, it says I have 54 emails, but when I open the app, I only have 4. I powered down and back up. No fix. What gives?

    Im having this same problem an my phone is about 3 weeks old. I am not sure about the voice over part though...I have not yet figured out how to work the voice recognition part of the phone...I am such a newbie with this phone. I did the power off/on suggestion, several times. I tried leaving it off for 10 minutes. Tried to reset with the power on/off and home button pressed at the same time. Charged battery. Still makes no difference. You cannot scroll any direction. Have to double click to open apps. Have to double click letters when texting or emailing in order to get the letter in the text box. Can scroll through app choices, have to click on the line with the dots in it and move from page to page. Can't access the settings - > general - > accessibility - because it won't allow me to scroll down to "general".
    Anyone help you with your fix yet?

  • Recently my keyboard on my macbook pro died. i backed up the machine to my Seagate 500GB hard drive, successfully, and sent the notebook in for repairs. Now that the macbook is repaired, i can read from the seagate, but not write to it. It says read only.

    Recently my Macbook Pro's keyboard failed. Using my wireless keyboard, i managed to backup everything to my 500gb Seagate external hard drive. I sent the machine in, had the keyboard repaired, and now the machine is back, and i am loading my content back onto the macbook. My problem is that the drive is now read only, and i have searched for all the obvious fixes. The lock on the permissions secion of the info block on the drive. (not present). I have even tried disk utility, but all the options are greyed out.
    I am a graphic designer, and so i use my external drive extensively to move artwork around, so it is important that i can make it writable. It worked perfectly on this very same machine, two weeks ago, and nothing has changed on the drive, so i can only assume it is a software issue on the operating system.
    I have read through all the forums, etc, and can find nothing that works. I am loath to change anything on the drive, as it was working perfectly on this system before the system went in for its repair.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Should the Edit in Browser link appear when Office Web Apps is read only?

    Hi,
    We have deployed an Office Web Apps farm in read only mode for licensing reasons.
    There is a binding between SharePoint 2013 and the Office Web Apps farm, everything is working well, except the option to Edit Office documents using Office Web Apps is quite prominent on the ECB menus and document previews.
    Is anyone able to advise whether this is expected behaviour? When the link is clicked a friendly error message states that licensing doesn't support editing, which is correct. I'm just trying to see if the user experience can be improved by a setting that
    we've missed somewhere along the line.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Per my knowledge, if you have configured Office Web Apps for SharePoint, the Edit in Browser option will appear in the ECB menu regardless of the licensing of the Office Web Apps.
    So I recommend to use CSS code to hide the Edit in Browser option if you do not want the user to use it.
    Edit the page of the document library view page, and then add a Content Editor web part to the page.
    After that add the code below to the Content Editor web part:
    <style>
    a[Title="Edit in Browser"]{
    display:none !important;
    </style>
    Thanks,
