Ayone used Intego Personal Backup with Leopard and an Airport Disk

I have been very successfully using Intego's Personal Backup program with OSX 10.4.10 on an intel iMac and a MacbookPro with an Iomega 750GB hard drive linked to an Airport Extreme. I've set the computers to automatically switch on nightly (via energy saver) 5 minutes before the Intego backup script is set to run. The script runs in the background and automatically logs on to the Airport Disk and selects the backup folder. After finishing the backup the script then quits the program and shutsdown the computer. It's very convenient and neat as it only backsup files that have changed and they are full usable copies rather than incremental backups.
Has anyone tried this using Leopard? Could this be a potential solution to the lack of Time Machine being used with Airport Disks?

I've tried it, without success.
I have a clean install of Leopard. I bought a new Airport Extreme and Iomega UltraMax 1TB drive to go with Leopard, so this part of the setup is all new to me. I have been using Personal Backup, without problem, for ages.
What I find is that when I select the Airport Disk as the destination drive, the Spinning Beachball of Death starts and I have to Force Quit Personal Backup. A real shame as I really wanted to use the Airport Disk as a common disk between my iMac and iBook, and Personal Backup seemed the obvious way to get the iMac files on to the Airport Disk (the iBook only needs read-only access).
If anyone gets this going, I'd love to find out how.

  • Using Epson DX6000 printer with leopard and timecapsule

    I can print fine when i plug in the printer direct to the macbook, but not when connecting the printer direct to the timecapsule. Macbook sees it ok, and says it's printed to it but nothing happens. Tried reinstalling drivers' deleting preferences etc but no good. And like i said works fine when connected directly.
    Can anyone please advise?

    That was my experience as well - the key was getting rid of the old driver.
    Finally figured it out after spending literally days on this problem.
    Read this post first:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5862672
    The key for me was to totally get rid of the old epson driver. I had the Epson Stylus Photo R2400 - GutenPrint v5.1.3 driver. It produced horrible washed out results. Photoshop could see the printer, and actually printed images, but they looked washed out. After replacing all the inks, and running numerous test prints - after switching it to my windows machine and back, I finally got it working. Follow the instructions on the post listed above. The part where they have you "repair permissions" did not complete for me. Something happened and the process just aborted. Why that happened I do not know. Once the old drivers were off, I went into system preferences/print & fax. I plugged the printer back in. I added it with the newly downloaded and installed driver from Epson. When I could select which driver to use I DID NOT USE the GutenPrint driver. This time I was prompted to use an Epson SP R2400 driver. I printed a test page - all looked ok. I fired up Photoshop, and voila - my gorgeous prints on my fantastic Epson R2400 are back. Man I was a real unhappy camper for the past 7 days. So I am back in business.
    Good luck - hope it helps.

  • Intego Personal Backup - Restore to a new iMac

    Old G5 iMac dies a catastrophic death leaving me with a Lacie external hard drive with backup copies of Clone System & Home Folders created by Intego Personal Backup.
    New Intel iMac being delivered (with basic software config of MAC OS X & some applications)
    Q ?? - What process should I use to get the 'old' applications & data files, especially the email folders, from the Intego Backup version on the Lacie external Drive onto the new iMac ??
    Thanks

    Thanks Allan,
    Your suggestion was what I feared and I am planning to re-install all the applications & extras that I had on the old G5 iMac.
    That still leaves the question about restoration of data, eg Mail folders, iPhoto, iTunes etc etc, that I suspect may not be as easy as Offices Folders for example. Any suggestions here; one idea is to set up a temporary new user on the new iMac, restore the Home Folder to that user & then use Apple Migration Tools (don't know much about these yet but presume they come with the new Intel iMac) to migrate Mail etc folders to the new personal accounts. I presume, though, that this will need an Intel version of Intego Personal Backup to be installed first.
    Cheers - Tony

  • How come I can't put music on my ipod? I already have a fair amount of music on my ipod but I have enough space for more. I am using a new computer with itunes and it is telling me if I wasnt to put the new music on my ipd i need to erase my ipod HELP!

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
    To move mdia to the new computer see:

  • TC wireless failed; Use as USB backup with Netgear R7000 as router?

    TC wireless failed. Can TC (500Gb hard drive) be  used as USB backup with Netgear R7000 as router or to nearby iMac?

    No, you cannot use the USB to access an internal disk in the TC.
    If its wireless has failed the rest will not be far behind.. the 500GB is Gen1 or early Gen2.. and they are simply failing in numbers.. you can probably repair it with a power supply, I kind of doubt the wireless itself would die but is symptomatic of failure of the unit as a whole.
    If you want a backup just buy a large USB drive and plug it straight into the iMac. Choose the fastest interface you can afford.. ie firewire 800 is still head and shoulders better than usb2.. but usb3 or thunderbolt in the later machines are a big improvement.. with the later costing an arm and leg still, with most of the bits in between.

  • How do I turn on NUM LOCK with Leopard and apples new keyboard?

    Am I missing something with Leopard and the new keyboard, how do I turn on Num Lock?
    thanks,
    Jeff

    well OSX doesnt necessarily use "num lock", unless of course your using bootcamp?
    but either way here is the keyboard chart/mapping comparison:

    (clear is generally "num lock" jsut press it to use. or F6 or maybe fn & F6 on the wireless new keyboard)

  • I use a Win7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my calendar and contacts. I can enter data in my Outlook Calendar and it will appear in iCloud, but data entered in iCloud does not sync back to Outlook.  ICloud syncs to my iphone fine both ways.

    I use Win 7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my Contacts and Calendar.  They have stopped syncing...mostly.
    Now, appointments I enter on my local Outlook (iCloud) Calendar goes up to iCloud fine.  But, data I enter on iCloud directly does not come down to my local Outlook iCloud Calendar.  If I reboot the computer, the iCloud data shows up.
    Also, Contacts I try to enter on my Outlook (iCloud) Contacts goes up to iCloud fine, but does not show up in my local iCloud Contacts.
    All syncing works with my iPhone.
    I have signed out of iCloud on PC.  I have stopped syncing and re-started.  No change.
    I have an .aplzod folder for iCloud.  I have a separate Earthlink.net.pst email account in Outlook and a me.com.pst Outlook email account (which I don't actually use) listed under Data Files.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Curious that Outlook will upload to iCloud but not receive downloads unless I reboot.  However, rebooting does not download the missing Contacts.

    Hi Jim!
    You've started off with some good troubleshooting steps, so let's see if we can take this a little further and figure out what the issue is with your iCloud contacts and calendars. I have two articles here that will help you troubleshoot this issue a little further, but the troubleshooting steps for both articles are exactly the same, so I will lay those out for you here:
    Note: When using iCloud Control Panel 2.0 and later, iCloud Calendar event descriptions in Outlook 2010 do not support text formatting (bold, italics, or underline), HTML, images, or attachments. The contextual (right-click) menu has also been disabled.
    If you are having trouble with a PC (with Outlook 2007 or 2010) and iCloud Calendar, try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
    Verify that you are using a Windows configuration that is supported by iCloud. For more information, see iCloud system requirements.
    When enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel, part of the setup process is to copy your Calendars data from the default Outlook ".pst" file to iCloud, and then remove the Calendars from the ".pst" file by placing them in the Deleted Items folder in Outlook. The Calendars data is then stored in the iCloud data set within Outlook so that changes can be pushed to and from Outlook by iCloud. Be sure you are looking for your data within the iCloud dataset within Outlook after enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel. The deleted files can be seen by viewing Deleted Items within your Outlook Folder List. This is not iCloud removing your data; iCloud simply copies your data into the iCloud data set and then removes the local Calendars data by placing it in the Deleted Items folder.
    Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com and iCloud.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in Outlook. Click here for more information about troubleshooting your Internet connection.
    Open a secure website to test if you are online as is necessary for iCloud Calendar. This also tests if the ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Outlook requires port 443 access to iCloud in order to push and pull updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
    Verify that your iCloud member name is entered into the iCloud Control Panel pane. See iCloud Setup for more information about setting up iCloud on Windows.
    Completely close and reopen the iCloud Control Panel.
    If you recently made changes in Outlook and they are not moving to your other devices or vice-versa, click the Refresh button in Outlook.
    Turn iCloud Calendar off and back on:
    Close Outlook.
    Open the Windows Control Panel:
    In Windows 8, move the pointer to the upper-right corner of the screen to show the Charms bar, click the Search charm, and then click the iCloud Control Panel on the left.
    In Windows 7 and Vista, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
    Remove the checkmark in the checkbox next to Mail, Contacts, Calendars & Tasks, and click Apply. Wait a few seconds, then replace the checkmark, and click Apply.
    Open Outlook and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
    Ensure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook.
    Outlook 2010:
    Open Outlook 2010.
    Click the File menu.
    Click Options in the left panel of the Outlook window.
    Click Add-Ins in the left panel of the Outlook Options window.
    Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
    For Outlook 2007, follow these steps to verify the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active
    Open Outlook 2007.
    From the Tools menu, choose Trust Center.
    Select Add-ins from the left column.
    Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
    For additional information about managing Add-ins with Microsoft Outlook, see this Microsoft support document.
    Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.

    It´s possible to use the "Remote" app with Itunes and a Nokia E72 with Joikuspot installed only? Or I´ll need to buy a modem Wifi?
    I was using "remote" with a D-link modem, that works fine at my iPad. But now I´m using only the cell phone as modem 3G, and don´t want to intall a router to put new cables at my notebook.

    What?
    You want to control iTunes on your computer using the Remote app on your iPad?
    And you want to connect the iPad and computer through your Nokia?
    No, this will not work.
    Just create a network with your notebook.

  • Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few m

    Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few months and updates ago

    I tried your suggestion, not knowing that the direct pdf printer would also "save as" PDF, but when I try your suggestion and use the Adobe PDF printer that is a direct creation of the PDF from the browser (IE9), instead of the "black out" areas I get when I use the "Convert to" button, I get missing blocks of the resulting PDF, and only get the first 1/4 to 1/3 of the webpage.
    Just to clarify, when I said I print the webpage and then scan, that is a work around I have to do if I need a scanned version of the way a webpage appears on a particular date and time, instead of the one step process I used to be able to do when Adobe Acrobat would actually convert the webpage to a pdf without blackout areas or, if I try your suggestion, blank spots with a partial webpage. But the idea was one I had not thought of and I appreciated the thought.
    Yes, Acrobat was updated, and is updated, and was working fine until a few months ago, Win 7 and Office 32 bit versions, Office 2010

  • Using my personal hotspot to connect and set my ipad

    Hi folks im having trouble using my personal hotspot to connect and set my ipad, the phone tells me thge ipad is connected to it via the hotspot but on the Ipad its founbd my phone and the little chain link hasd gone blue but i cant advance from this point to connect to itunes

    Yes, the iPad will download app updates over your iPhone's cellular data. I just tested it.  I was tethered to my iPhone using Bluetooth, which I figured to make it even less likely to do so, but as soon as I turned on auto updates it started updating apps.
    It's not obvious at first either. You can't see any progress bars. You will just notice  the number of pending updates gradually decreasing, and in the App Store "Updates" section you will notice apps appear as updated on this date.

  • Can I use HP Pro 8600 with usb and wireless at the same time

    Hi,
    Same physical printer but when connecting to SAME computer using both USB and wireless it becomes two (logical) printers. Probably your default prnter is the wireless one, you have to select the right printer before print .

  • Using Epson Workforce 40 with Snow Leopard and an AirPort Extreme

    Hi. Long night working on this but I figured something out, that might help others out there in the same/similar situation.
    I have an Epson Workforce 40, and an AirPort Extreme. I had previously set up the EPWF40 (Epson WorkForce 40) before I had installed Snow Leopard. After installing Snow Leopard, the printer would not work and would not be recognized by my MBP 15". The document would just hang and I would have to force quit the printer or delete the document.
    Bullet points on how I made it work:
    - the most important thing is to have the printer recognized by the router and have an IP address installed and registered first, then you can install the Epson Mac EasyPrint software and "find" the printer over your wireless network
    - Goto:
    http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?oid=108743&prodoid=6307 5463&BV_UseBVCookie=yes&infoType=Downloads&platform=Macintosh&x=28&y=3
    and download the Epson EasyPrint v3.10 file called: "epson12433.dmg"
    - Unfortunately, Epson does not make software to "install" the printer to the router for Snow Leopard
    - I re-installed the printer to the router using my wife's HP laptop and the original CD that came with the EPWF40.
    - Follow the instructions on the CD for the install for "First Time" setting up the printer.
    - After following the original instructions from the CD on her PC, the router assigned a new IP address to the printer, and the printer was "connected" to the router wirelessly
    - Then, on my MBP running Snow Leopard, I ran the dmg file downloaded earlier from the Epson website.
    - After running, go to the printer/fax preferences, click the "+" sign and add a new printer.
    - As long as you are connected wirelessly to the router, under default, your mac should "find" the Epson printer. It is called something like "EPSON5A2EAA". There should be at least one, if not two options.
    - One of the options should be "EPSON5A2EAA Bonjour" and the other "EPSON5A2EAA IP". Click on one, install it, and then go back and click on the other and install it (just to be sure).
    - You will not be able to use the standalone Epson Apps installed from the DMG, however, the printer preferences for the epson, will be available through the printer preference boxes when you go through the system preferences.
    It didn't make any sense at first for me either. Once I understood that:
    - you can't install the printer from a Mac to your router
    - after the printer is installed and linked with your router, your Mac can find it and use it
    ...I was able to complete the installation and have a fully functional wireless network printer.
    Feel free to drop me a question. I'm just glad I was able to make it work.

    Actually, you have.
    Rosetta was incorporated into both Tiger and Leopard. But it was invisible, of course. Snow Leopard is the first OS that offers the choice of whether to install it or not.
    Any suggestions on how I find the recent article or make my printer work with Snow Leopard?
    Don't know about the "recent article", but you can install Rosetta by inserting your Snow Leopard DVD and clicking on the Optional Installs package. When the configuration choice window comes up, just check Rosetta alone and carry on.
    Good luck with it!
