Backup failed because the network destination disk was ejected or disconnected unexpectedly!

My time machine is stuck on 'Stopping backup'.
The time machine widget gives the above reason: 'Backup failed because the network destination disk was ejected or disconnected unexpectedly!'
Any idea what I can do to restore it?
Many thanks

  • HT3275 I get the message that backup failed because the volume is already in use.  Any ideas?

    My Time Machine for my iMac has suddenly developed a problem: on repeated attempts to do a backup, it returns the message that the backup failed because the volume is already in use.  The solution to the problem may well be simple and obvious, but it'll be a revelation to me and any help will be gratelfully received.

  • Ical failed because the network is unreachable

    Please help! I cannot get my ical to sync to my mac.com account. I keep gettting an error message that says "The connection to account “[email protected]” failed because the network is unreachable". My calendar is synced correctly on my  iphone and on my iclound.com account, but it will not sync to my iMac ical account. Please help!! I am getting so frustrated!!!

    First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    Go to iCal > Preferences > Accounts and remove all references to MobileMe / .Mac / iCloud you might find using the minus "-" sign at the bottom.
    Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    Go to Apple > System Preferences > iCloud > Sign Out and then sign back in.
    If your password doesn't work go to https://appleid.apple.com to reset your password.
    Close System Preferences
    Go to iCal > Preferences > Accounts and make sure that "iCloud" is now listed.If iCloud is not listed, use the plus "+" sign at the bottom to add it back in.
    If the issue persists:
    1. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    --- NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion: Click anywhere on the desktop and then click on the "Go" menu at the top of the computer screen while holding down the "option" key on the keyboard.  You will see "Library" in the menu.
    3. Launch iCal and test.
    If the issue persists:
    1. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    --- NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    3. Launch iCal and test.
    Hope that helps.

  • HT3275 I am getting a message that the backup failed because the "sparsebundle is already in use."  My husband and I both have MacBooks that back up to one time machine.  It is also our wifi router.  I do not understand this message

    I am getting the message that "the backup disk image '/volumes//data/ ---'s MacBook pro.sparsebundle" is already in use.  ---"s is my administrator designation.  I don't know what this means or what I should do.  My husband and I both use the same time machine with our MacBooks.  It is our router for our home network although for the most part our computers are separate.  We share an email site, and some files.  I am concerned that we are not backed up securely

    Most common message in history of the TC.. something has failed to unmount.. Lion and esp. Mountain Lion are affected.
    Simple way.. reboot the TC to lose the connections..
    Might take a network reboot.
    That means restart the whole network from off.. start in order, modem.. router/TC.. clients. 2min gap between them.
    But from 5.6 utility you can disconnnect all users.

  • CTI Warning: The call has failed because of network interruption

    Hi, one of agents received incoming call and his call dropped within few seconds and error on CTIOS agent desktop was "CTI Warning: call has failed because of network interruption". I investigated and got info from icm database schema that this error is 26-U-Abort and caused due to network congestion. Network team shown the logs and no error regarding network found. What else could be the reason?

  • An HNAP call to the device failed because the HTTP connection was broken - EA3500

     OK - thanks in advance for your help -
    I have a linksys Linksys WMP300 and am able to connect to the EA3500 (shows connected at 270 Mbps) Excellent Connecttion but I can't access the internet or any of the other computers on my network.  The stupid thing is that I can connect to my neighbor's unsecured network which is also a linksys router.
    All of the other computers on the network connected just fine - my son has a laptop running windows Vista, we have a family computer using Vista, my wife's laptop is Windows 7 (we just had a guest that connected just fine).
    Here's the error code I get - any help would be appreciated!
    Error code: 82BD0304
    Error description: An HNAP call to the device failed because the HTTP connection was broken.
    Model name: unknown
    Model number: EA3500
    Serial number: 12C10603215584
    Firmware version: unknown
    Operating system: Windows XP SP 3
    Software version: 1.4.12005.2
    Connection type (WAN): unknown
    IP address (LAN): unknown
    IP address (WAN): unknown
    Computer IP address: 192.168.1.36

    Thank you for the reply - 
    Router is assigning IP address automatically. Although I have been using a static IP address in the past, this is no longer the case.
    The WMP300 is on an Windows XP, SP3 PC.
    Since running into this issue, I have not only disabled all security (to make sure that firewalls and/or virus software was causing problems) I completely uninstalled my McAfee. I have disabled Windows Firewall also. "Flying Naked" as it were.
    I am surprised that Cisco has no solution - others are also having this problem.
    It MUST be the router - I am able to connect to my neighbor's router, able to connect to my old Linksys WRT150N. Anyone else have thoughts?
    This is frustrating.

  • I downloaded mavericks but the install failed. The message stated there was an error with the disk which required repairing.

    Help please!  I downloaded mavericks but the install failed. The message stated there was an error with the disk which required repairing. Using disk utility repair disk is not available ( greyed out) and verify disk stops and says disc requires repairing. So the online support page suggests I erase the disc and reinstall then back up from time machine ( I have a recent backup). But when I try to erase the Macintosh HD I get the message volume erase failed with the error couldn't unmount disk.
    I'd be very grateful for any help anyone can give me.
    I have a macbook pro 17" mid 2009-  running on snow leopard 10.6.8 ...  I lost the snow leopard disk so I don't know what to do from there ... I tried restarting by clicking SHIFT (safe mode) after the chime comes up,  but It doesnt seem to make any difference ... please help !!
    thank you sooo much
    many many thanks for your hep guys !!

    Whenever you install a new version of OS X being installed, the disk is checked just as if you were using Disk Utility checks the disk to see if the disk is damaged. And,, from what you report, your disk is damaged and needs to be replaced. This isn't a fault with Mavericks - your disk may have been failing for years.
    It's a very good thing that you've a recent backup as you're going to need it. I would suggest that you evaluate what functionality that you need in a new disk and go shopping at OWC for a new drive - HGST (or any Hitachi), Seagate SSHDs or Toshiba drives are all good. Be sure that you buy an enclosure for the 'new' drive so that you can format it using Disk Utility before installing it into your machine - you can get one of those from OWC as well.
    Good luck - call back with any questions...

  • I have the ipad2 with the latest Os upgrade.  On certain websites, I get the following error message: cannot open page. Safari cannot open the page because the network connection was lost. I have rebooted, turned off wifi and reset the password.

    This is happening to only certain websites.  Unfortunately, the work ones that I need to access.  I appreciate any help.
    Error message:
    Cannot open page
    Safari cannot open the page because the network connection was lost
    I reset the wifi and the password, I also rebooted several times.

    Do you have any other browsers on your iPad? If you don't have one, why don't you try downloading one of these free browsers - they will all be "lite" versions (not full featured)  - but if you can access these websites with one of those - then I assume that we can point to Safari as being the culprit. That will not solve the Safari problem, but it will give us another point from which to work.

    Show parameter pfile/spfile will not show you contents of pfile , for seeing contents you will have to show parameter with required parama name.
    show parameter log_archive_dest
    Whenever you start database ostartup first by default use spfile$Oracle_Sid.ora for starting the instance if this spfile does not exist then it goes for spfile.ora if spfile.ora also does not exist then it search init$Oracle_Sid.ora in default location.
    As you created spfile after restarting the database will automatically use spfile and will show you spfile in yours param when you will show parameter spfile if it does not show then you are still using pfile

  • CTI warning: The request failed because the timeout limit was exceeded.

    hi,
    For a perticular IP Phone extension when agent is going to login using CTI agent toolkit then CTI generatin this msg "CTI warning: The request failed because the timeout limit was exceeded". but the other ph is working fine. I have deleted this phone and add againg. And the ph re-associate with PG and JTapi user. but still have the prob. For more plz see the find attached.

    Your first troubleshooting step here should be to check what JTAPI Gateway thinks is the state of that extension, you can easily check that through procmon. Here's an example from my lab.
    C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>procmon ipcc pg1a jgw1
    >>>>jdi 2000
    >>>>
    Addr: 2000      ActiveLines: 0          RegistrationState: IN_SERVICE
            m_CurrentInvokeID = 0
            m_elapsedTPServicesRequestSeconds = 0
            queuedDTMFDigits = null
            sendingDTMFInProgress: N
            sendQueuedMsgAddCallObserverResponse: Y
            monitoredVirtualDialerPort: N
            virtualDialerPort: N
            loggedInAgent: N
            DeviceStatus : UnmonitoredDevice
            addressDeviceType : GWMSG.DEVICE_TYPE_DEVICE
            observeredTypeString : logged Out Agent Device
            isAddressRestricted: N
            addressDeviceProtocol : PROTOCOL_SCCP
            silentMonitorStatus : 0
            silentMonitoredCallID : -1
            TerminalName : SEP001BD52C547F
    The RegistrationState should be IN_SERVICE for a phone that is registered with CUCM. If you can see that the phone is registered with CUCM in it's adminsitration pages, made sure that it's in the list of associated devices, made sure you're running the correct version of the jtapi plugin and still see it as OUT_OF_SERVICE, you're probably looking at a CTI Manager defect. CSCti07947 and CSCti11651 spring to mind but there are probably a couple more.
    Most of these defects should be fixed in releases like CUCM 7.1(5), 8.0(x) and up. If the issue persists, you're probably best off opening a TAC Service Request to identify the exact cause. The PG (JTAPI Gateway) only shows you what it gets from CTI Manager, so as you can see from my above observations, you'd want to focus your troubleshooting on the CUCM end.

  • "Hotspot login could not open the page because the network connection was lost"

    So, I've been trying to connect to the login for our school's wifi for a while now, but instead of like going into the sign in spot where you accept the terms of use agreement for our wifi, the pop up screen says "Hotspot loging could not open the page because the network connection was lost". This is on my iPod touch 2nd Generation, and I've never had this problem before, but it popped up like 4-5 weeks ago, and I haven't been able to log in since. Anybody else solve this problem/ have it and could give me advice on how to solve it? That would be great, thanks and see you fellow Applers later!!

  • Hotspot login cannot open the page because the network connection was lost. Why?

    Everyttime I try to connect to the wifi, all I get is about a second of the phone saying it is connected, before I get a login page, with the web adress of "captive.apple.com".
    The login page is black, and after about a second I get the message,
    "Error Opening Page: Hotspot login cannot open the page because the network connection was lost"
    I've tried restarting the phone, resetting the network data, everytihng I can think of but no luck.
    How can I fix this?

    Good day everybody. I had the same issue and I got crazy but keep up work on it about 1 week to have the resolution.
    Here is the simple steps to overcome this problem:
    1. Choose your Wifi and get connected
    2. On Wifi page at the bottom Turn On 'Ask to Join Networks'
    3. Connect to your Wifi,
    4. After connecting, you will see a blue next to your selected Wifi
    5. Press the blue and get into the connection detail of your wifi
    6. Turn on Auto-Join
    7. Turn Off Auto-Login
    8. Close settings
    9. Go to Safari log with Hotel, Business wifi page
    Trick is the Auto-Login must be turned off
