  • I would like to use time Machine to back up to a network SMB drive. I can see the drive on my desktop but it will not show in the time machine window to be able to select it

    I currently have a mini server (OSX10.8.5, server 2.2.2) that I am using Time Machine to back up 4 external drives that are connected to the server via firewire 800. I would like to use Time Machine to back up to a windows network SMB drive. I can see the drive on my desktop but it will not show in the time machine window to be able to select it for use.
    Can this be done
    Thanks for any and all help

    The supported targets for Time Machine backups are local (direct-connected) disks, and network targets include Time Capsule, a disk hanging off the current-generation AirPort (though not earlier AirPort devices), and OS X Server systems.
    The Time Machine storage is based on the HFS+ file system, so I would not expect TM to work with SMB file services.
    While there are hacks to allow Time Machine to access network drives, I would not consider those to be reliable. Skim the forum and the 'net for related details, and for previous discussions of setting this up and the related issues that can arise.
    Remember to test the recovery with whatever you decide to use; whole point of backups is the ability to restore the data, after all.
    If you want to learn more about Time Machine, Pondini is an excellent resource.

  • I upgraded from 3.6.13 to Beta 4.0 and now Firefox will not open at all I tried to uninstall to start again but it will not uninstall either it does nothing.

    I uninstalled Beta 4 and re-installed 3.6.13 now Firefox will not open at all I tried to uninstall to start again but it will not uninstall either it does nothing, I have been using Firefox for a long time but cannot resolve this problem can anyone help and give me a solution please. As I use Firefox as my web browser it is very frustrating.
    The fact it will not uninstall appears to be something completely new as nobody I know who uses Firefox has ever encountered this in the past.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • TS2972 I have 46 movies downloaded from apple on my windows 7 PC I can only see 32 of them on my apple tv, I keep trying to share on my computer but they will not connect, any ideas?

    I have 46 movies downloaded from apple on my windows 7 PC I can only see 32 of them on my apple tv, I keep trying to share on my computer but they will not connect, any ideas? Sometimes I can connect though computer and get all my movies but usually I  can not connect though the network.

    thank you Diesel vdub  this helps but I just need to clarify - I understand about copying the intire folder ( cool thanks ) for the second part though, you are saying I can not do this if the 2nd computer does not have internet access? ( which you seem to be saying - bother! )
    many thanks

    Where are you trying to get Flash Player from? Downloading is different from installing but many malicious websites offer to supply Flash Player as a means of installing malicious software and gathering personal information (e.g., passwords). You should get Adobe Flash only from Adobe and this link lets you download the full installer (Mac OS X (Intel) DMG) and run it locally. At that point OS X will ask for your password and if you've been using it successfully for other purposes (e.g., changing some items in System Preferences), it should work there too. Note that once Flash Player is installed, a Preference panel is installed too, and in it you can authorize Adobe to update Flash automatically.

  • I have an iMac that I am running OSX 10.8.3 on.  I keep trying to install 10.8.4 but it will not install.  I tried updating and installing several times and it restarts the computer but it will not install the software.  My machine is about 8 months old.

    Sometimes the App Store version doesn't work correctly. In this case, install 10.8.4 with the Combo version > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    The Combo installer is the safest way to update OS X, and it allows you to update more than one computer with a single download

    i cannot connect iTunes because it's always asking to enter passcode on iphone.
    So, i cannot make restore my iphone 6+. And then, I cann't erase "device" in icloud.

    That's why I try to connect iTunes but it need to enter passcode.
    So, my iphone just keep "iphone is disbled-connect to iTunes".

  • HT201436 I am trying to set up my voicemail but it will not let me use the letters, only the number come up

    I am trying to set up my voicemail but it will not let me use the letters..only numbers

    I don't understand what you are setting up using numbers - or letters.  If it's a passcode, then you can translate the letters into numbers as you would on a telephone keyboard - for example, an "S" would be a 7.
    But that may not matter, as the process for setting up voicemail is strongly tied to your cellular carrier.  If the above doesn't answer your issue, contact your cellular carrier for setup assistance.

  • I have HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but no audio from my new Apple TV.  I have checked all connections and the video is xlnt.  Have also toggled thru every possible Dolby/Audio combination in settings.  Help!  Any suggestions?

    I have an HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but there is non audio from my Apple TV.  Not for movies, music, YouTube etc.   I have checked all of the connections and the video is xlnt.  Have also toggled thru all possible Dolby/Audio combinations in settings.  Help!  Any suggestions?

    Hello again Parker -
    The basic setup is Digital Cable Box, DVD Player, Denon Receiver/Amp and TV Monitor.  To that I added the Apple TV.  The Receiver only has two HDMI IN slots (one for cable and one for the DVD) and one out to the Monitor. 
    [I bought a switcher to toggle the DVD and the AppleTV back and forth but just disconnected the DVD to simplify when I ran in to trouble.]
    So now I have:
         HDMI from the Cable Box to the Receiver
         HDMI from the Apple TV to the Receiver (in the old DVD slot which always worked well)
         HDMI from the Receiver to the Monitor
         RCA's from the Receiver to the Subwoofer and the other speakers
    In addition I have some backup connections:
         S-Video, Optical Audio and L/R RCA's from the Cable Box to the Receiver
         S-Video from the Receiver to the Monitor
    Wait - JUST FOUND IT! 
    By going thru the excercise to track all of the connections per your suggestion, I found an anomaly when I switched Receiver sockets for the HDMI links.  The video moved but the audio didn't.  Turns out the monitor was using the optical audio feed from the receiver.  So I disconnected the optical audio and the monitor automatically switched to the HDMI audio feed!   Looked promising...
    So I first connected an optical audio feed from the ATV to the receiver - Audio!  Then I pulled it, but the audio didn't switch to the HDMI feed.  It stopped.  Would be OK if all I was going to use is the ATV, but I need the DVD player too and I can't use a switcher to toggle between them if I have to unplug the optical audio each time.
    This is becoming a career!  Any suggestions?
    Will

  • I would like to use a video my grandson posted on FaceBook in my iMovie. I saved it to my desktop, but it will not drop into iPhoto. The format is video.php.html.

    I am using a MacBook Pro OK X Version 10.9.5. Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory 4GB 1067nMHz DDR3
    iPhoto Version 8.1..2
    My grandson posted a video on FaceBook that I would like to use in my Christmas  Memories movie. He use a Kindle Fire HD. I downloaded it to my desktop (video.php.html), but I cannot save it to iPhoto. What should I do? Thanks.

    what you downloaded is no video (just some link to an 'internal website hosting the video'...
    it's a bit tricky, to pry a video from FB's dead cold hands...:
    click on the video for playback in your web-browser. (no need to run the full video)
    replace the "https://www.facebook.com/…"
    by "m.facebook.com/…"
    the same site appears in a diff. 'look'…
    right-click/ctrl-click on video, select 'download to'.......

  • I just downloaded an app to my desktop but it will not sync to my iPad

    I have done this many times before and it worked fine. But today two apps I downloaded to my mac desktop and they show up in my list of apps on the desktop. But after I sync the iPad to my desktop it just goes throught he procedure of backing up and doesn't put the two new apps onto the iPad. And I checked that the operating system is compatable in the app requirements. How do I get them to transfer to the iPad? Thanks.

    They are ios apps, sorry for not specifying. I just went to my iPad, then iTunes and they show up there. Under the apps it says "install' But when I do that it says the app requires ios 6.0 or later and only have 5.1.1. When I read the requrements on the app on the iTunes store on the computer it said it only required 3.1. Anyway, can I put ios 6.0 on an iPad 2 and more important will ios 6 slow down or not run smoothly on the iPad 2? Thanks.

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes.
    Restart the PC first.
    If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair".
    If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:
    Can you launch your iTunes now?
