Backup from another machine

Hi everyone, I tried to find answer to my questions in this forum but I did not succeed yet.
I had a iMac secure with FileVault. As I was expecting to exchange it with a macBook air, I did a backup with Time machine on an external hard drive. Now on my new macBook Air, I used Migration from that backup but I only selected my application folder and document folder because my mba only have 128gig of hd. I was expecting to use this external hard drive to keep my photos and my music. But now, when I look in the backup folder (with finder) on this external hard drive, my music and my photos are locked. I tried to unlock them by changing the privileges but I can't. I do use the same user name as on my older machine.
Anyone have any idea?
Thanks!

No one?

Is there any way to access backups from another machine?

In an immense screwage, Apple has misplaced my macbook pro on the way to depot service.
Given the fact that I do expect them to eventually get it back to me, is there anyway to access the time machine backup for the missing machine?

Can I restore backup from another mac with time machine?

I would like to restore files from a TM backup from another Mac - is this possible? Thanks.

I'm not sure I know how to help. I use OS X Server's Time Machine services from a Mac Mini to do my back ups to a drive connected to that server. I have the same user account on one MBP Retina that does not do back ups as another MBP Retina that DOES back ups. However, I can't even open the sparse bundle from the one that doesn't do back ups of the one that does (if that makes sense).
You might try and see if this link helps. This guy was the TM guru around here. He might have addressed a solution to what you're trying to do.

Restore backup in another machine

Forgive me for the 'weak' English.
Oracle 10gR2 in both machines.
RH4E in both machines.
I am trying to restore one backup in another machine.
I copied the backup files to the new host, created one passwordfile, created a init.ora file and created the directories used in the init.ora.
I set the ORACLE_SID for the SID of the original db and after to try to connect as sysdba I receive error ORA-01031: insufficient privileges.
sqlnet.ora:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
But I also tried with other parameters (NONE, EXCLUSIVE) and nothing.
I have one another instance running in this machine (where I want restore backup).
export oracle_sid=my_sid
sqlplus /nolog
SQL> conn /as sysdba
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
Somebody can help me?

sqlnet.ora:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)Assuming your OS user (normally oracle) is member of dba group, try removing (or commenting) that line.

It depends how you installed it.
If you installed from your iLife 11 DVD, then you can insert the DVD and install it again.
If you purchased it from the Mac App Store, you can open the Mac App Store, go to the Purchases tab, and reinstall from there.

I can't execute my forms from another machine

After a lot tears, blood and sweat, eventually I achieve to install successfully an IAS (server).
I probe it and realize that I can execute forms in the Navigator wich is in the IAS Server, but I can't execute it from another machine.
I now that the web server is Ok because I can see the main page of the web server (runform.htm) but since I introduce the name of the forms it can't find the page.
?What am I doing wrong?
Regards

If the IP address approach is working and the machine name is not, it may be that you need to have your machine added to your DNS server. The DNS server does the linking of your machine name to a IP address known by the server. If it is defined on the server, then make sure the machine you are trying to access the form from has that DNS server defined in its Network set-up.
Hope this helps.

If you remove a backup from Time Machine, can you add it later?

if you remove a backup from Time Machine, can you add it back later? I have two backup sets active, but only one is connecting to a drive at the moment. It seems to be pausing TM for the inactive one, which is as I would expect, except that the menu icon for TM shows an exclamation point (= "waiting to backup"). I'd rather have that error / pause sign show if the ACTIVE connected drive is experiencing issues. It has zero diagnostic function as currently set up.
The solution would be to remove the backup drive from the TM list and then add it back later. I am just unsure if I can do this (will TM recognize the alternate backup set again if I re-add it?)

Yes, you can re-add it.

Deleting Backups from Time Machine to Make Room

Deleting Backups from Time Machine to Make Room
So, I went into my 1.5 terabyte back-up drive and deleted a number of the TM backups because the drive was getting too full. (I also use that drive to store “permanent” photo files in other folders.)
Evidently, the computer does not recognize the deletions because the drive shows the same miniscule amount of space as it did prior to the deletions.
I know people have talked about using “actions” button in the gear icon. However, I can’t find that.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Tek

Thanks for the reply, V.K.
Unfortunately, I deleted via the finder and then emptied the trash. :-}
I know now, (after the fact) that this was the wrong thing to do. However, I didn’t find a “delete” option within TM.
It all seemed “logical” at the time. . . and quite frankly, still does. Why the heck is TM so difficult to control? Why can’t one just set it for X number of backups and have an easy to access delete button? (grumble, grumble)
I looked at the FAQs, but am still not clear on how to find the “action” button. I am using a laptop with no “right click” feature. The mouse is a one piece model.
My backup drive is directly attached, but, only when I want to backup since I work on a MB pro laptop.
So please:
How do I correct this?
Do I need to format the backup drive and partition? I don’t want/need so many backups cluttering my drive. I need space for permanent photo archives which are very large. These are now merely in a separate folder on the backup drive.

Schedule boot from another machine

Few day ago the power button of my macbook was broken and it won't to startup.
I've boot my system with another macbook with the hd and I've try to install Aurora and Alarm Clock pro and schedule a boot, hoping when remounted the hd in the broken one it will startup...
What happened is the second macbook (without my hd plug-in and without aurora and alarm installed) is start but my is not...
Is there a way to schedule a startup from another machine or is impossible?
thanks to any advice!!!

Some external CD/DVD reader/writer are capable of booting the computer from an OS X install disc. Although there is alternative method for doing so, you need to be able to boot from your current OS X install disc in order to run Disk First Aid repair on the hard drive.
If your external CD/DVD reader/writer does not support booting your Mac from an OS X install disc and your Mac has Firewire ports and supports Firewire Target Disk mode, you can connnect another Mac with a Firewire port that includes a working CD/DVD module and also supports Firewire Target Disk mode and install a new OS on your Mac from this Mac.
