Backup problem with ipad2

I could not backup my ipad2 prior to the IOS5 upgrade. I kept getting message "the backup file is corrupt or is incompatible with this ipad", "Delete backup file and try again." How do I do that??

I did this with no result, so I deleted the backup files on my PC's hard drive, and now there are no messages, but the "backup" spins for hour if I let it with no result. Ultimately backed up my ipad2 on iClouds, but my 3GS phone will not backup at all.

IOS7.0.2 & Itunes 11.1.0.126 sync problems with iPad2

iOS7.0.2 & Itunes 11.1.0.126 sync problems with iPad2 - Does step 1 & 2 of sync. Then this message> The iPad "my ipad name" could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorised for purchased items that are on this iPad. To authorise this computer for items from the iTunes Store choose Store> Authorise This Computer.
Tried all that many times. Also went into my account and de-athorised all computers and re-authorised this one. No joy. What next. Fedup that things are going wrong with apple. We buy apple because it works I always say. Yeah right.

Hello Laura,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to sync your music to your iPhone.
I recommend trying to resync. You can resync content to the iPhone by unchecking "Sync Music" and then clicking "Apply" and then checking "Sync Music" and then clicking "Apply" again:
I recommend reviewing the full article here:

Backup problem with LMS 3.0 on Solaris

Hi All,
I'm encountering problems with LMS 3.0 when I try to do a backup. After you hit OK on the window that says "Do you want to backup now?", an error would pop up saying: "Enter a new directory name or ask the system administrator of the Ciscoworks Common Services server to make the directory accessible to user casuser", thus I cannot proceed with the backup process. When I do backup, my login privilege is admin. Even tried to do backup on the same partition as my CSCOpx directory but to no avail.
Appreciate your help on this guys. Our LMS 3.0 runs on Solaris platform. Thanks in advance.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for your prompt response. By the way, what is a casuser? Is he also one of the user that can be found on the Local User Setup on Common Services? The scenario here is that, I am not the one who installed the Ciscoworks LMS 3.0 on the client side, so I am not aware on how they did the installation procedure for the application. I remember assigning casuser password during installation on our other clients that has LMS 3.0.
Will the write access on the backup directory for the casuser be done by the Solaris root administrator?
Thanks for your help.

Having a problem with Ipad2 IOS 7 itunes moving app icons

When trying to move or reposition app ICONS in iTunes for my iPad2 it is extremely sluggish or won't let me select a home screen or icon to work with.
Sometimes all the home screens "disappear" from the window.
Did not have this problem with previous iTunes version 11.x.x before updating to the new 11.1 iTunes and IOS 7 on my devices.
My iphone 4s with IOS 7 does not have this problem, but is a little sluggish.
Running Windows XP on a very fast PC.
Thanks

While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unchecked. This seems to help with partial downloads...
The other issue doesn't ring any bells.

Backup Problem with Windows Server Backup

Hello,
we have problems with Windows Server Backup Feature.
Our system is a Windows Server 2008 Standard. On the computer runs a SQL Server 2005.
Since several days no backup can be carried out. We get the error message:
- Error during a Volume Shadow Copy service operation. Detailed error: Failed to process the volume shadow copy: "0x800423F0".
- Errors in the event log: For the started backup an error occured. The volume shadow copy operation was not successful. Error code: "2155348129". Run the backup again after the problem was fixed.
We have already tried to restart the services, uninstalled the Windows Server Backup Feature and reinstalled it, also we rebootet the server several times. Unfortunately, so far without success.
What else can we do respectively where could be the problem?
Kind regards

Time Machine Backup Problem with OS X 10.9.4

I am having a problem with the Time Machine backup on a MacBook Pro 2.6 running OS X 10.9.4. What is happening is it starts the backup and then gets to a certain point and just freezes indefinitely at that point. (Indefinitely meaning overnight >12 hrs) I deleted the sparsebundle file and restarted the backup and it essentially freezes at the same point. It's like there's a particular file it has an issue with. Is there a way to tell what file it's backing up when it freezes so I can exclude it from the backup. I initially thought it was a Time Capsule and backing up over the network issue. I acquired a USB 3 Seagate drive and tried using it with the same result. So, the issue has nothing to do with the Maverick network "qwerks" I've seen referenced.
My initial backup size is about 250 GB. I've pared that back by excluding the Parallels Virtual Machines on the hard drive and my IPhoto Library. That scales the back up size to about 55 GB.   Before I did the file exclusion it was hanging up at 1.83 GB out of ~250GB. Now it's hanging up at 1.82 GB out of ~55 GB. So it's as if it is reaching some file it has an issue with and stopping.
Any thoughts?

These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes.) You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard."
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Note the timestamp of the last "Starting" message that corresponds to the beginning of an an abnormal backup. Now
CLEAR THE WORD "Starting" FROM THE TEXT FIELD
so that all messages are showing, and scroll back in the log to the time you noted. Select the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ If all you see are messages that contain the word "Starting," you didn't clear the text field.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Catalog backup problems with PSE 11

Hi,
I'm having terrible problems trying to backup my catalog to an external hard drive.
My PC is running Windows 7 with 8 GB of internal memory. My external hard drive is formatted to FAT 32 and has 130GB of spare capacity. My catalog is 45GB.
I have previously backed up the the catalog without any problems but can't remember if I did this before I upgraded to PSE 11.
I initially tried doing a full backup but got an error part way through writing the 'breeze' data. Having read that the breeze data was only used for face recognition, I deleted the remaining breeze data files and tried again.
I then encountered a problem when writing some of my early .jpg files. I couldn't see any obvious problem with these but tried removing them and runnning the back up again.
This time it got a bit further but hung up on some .mpg files.
I removed all video files and tried again.
This time it got up to over 60% complete but it then hung up on some early files which had a 'description' 2002 rather than a straight date name to the file. I thought that there might be a problem with file names including ' 's ', so removed these and tried again.
I then tried running Catalog 'optimize' and 'repair' (I didn't tick 'the re-index visual similarity data').
I eventually got up to over 65% complete but couldn't get the backup to go past my 2007 files no matter what files I removed.
I then tried doing an incremental backup using a Catalog file that I had created in 2011. This backup failed with 'an error encountered while writing.....WaldoData\waldo.cache'
I now don't know what to try! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
FYI, looking at the backup Catalog files that I have previously created, it appears that only the first contains all the images from whole catalog with an equal number of .xml files.
Two others which I created (which I can't remember were full or incremental backups) only have some of the images. I'm sure that this can't be right.
I presume that for an intial backup the .xml files should run from B0000001 to Bnnnnnnn; the .jpg/.mpg/ etc from Bnnnnnnn+1 to B 2(nnnnnnn) and that when one runs an incremental back up the new .xml files are added from B2(nnnnnnn)+1 to B2(nnnnnnnn)+(mmmm) and the image files continuing for a further (mmmm). Is this correct?
Otherwise what should one be seeing?
Regards
Mike

Thank you for your information about my problem with PSE 11. I have since tried the programme on 2 different computers and it works fine. Seems like the problem is with my computer although my old PSE 10 works okay. I'd appreciate any ideas about what could be wrong with my computer to cause my photos to break up into various segments which don't join together particularly when I move them into 'before and after horizontal' or '......vertical' and even when zooming them.

Time machine backup problem with upgrade to Lion - Choose Backup Disk button non-existant

Hi, I just upgraded my mac mini to Lion and have encountered a problem with by Time Machine. It no longer sees my networked drive for back up. So, I followed the instructions on this site http://code.stephenmorley.org/articles/time-machine-on-a-network-drive/ and get to item 6b. and have a problem I have not been able to sort out. Instead of the button "Choose Backup Disk" on the Time Machine window, I have a button "Select Disk" with a button "Options" under it. When I click "Select Disk" I get a window promtping me to "Set Up Other Time Capsule" and clicking that takes me to a window for AirPort Utility. (screen shot )
Anyone know why I don't have the right button for starters and why I can't access any drives on my machine at all? I followed the web instructions on the site I mention above because initially I had an error about AFP, so suspected the drive set up here (it is my work) is incompatible.
(The only IT guy we have is on vacation for 2 weeks and then I am on vacation for 2 weeks and can't wait a month in order to back up! Thought I would try here to see if I can get answers before I am away.)
Thanks in advance!

i had a similar problem when I first installed Lion last year. It seems that some network NAS products need a firmware update to work with Lion. I contacted the manufacturer and they helped me out. I am using a Synology NAS system. Problem solved after firmware update.

Time machine backup problem with company backup.

I have serious problems with making backups of our company computers by Time Machine.
We have Synology NAS with Time Machine Support. When I made setting for Time Machine backups (users, shares, quotas, etc. ) ewerything worked fine. All Time machines uses one directory, that appears on the network like a Time capsule. Machines have their own accounts with quotas etc. After a few days started many problems. Some Time Machines has missed their target sparsebundles and unsuccessfully tried write into some others. After Time Machine restart and new manual setting problem persisting. Only successfull solution is complete remove all affected sparsebundles (miss all older backups) and make new ones. This problems appears on many different computers with various OSX version 10.6 - 10.8.
Can you help me with this problem?

I have used OS X Server on an Xserve and gained the impression that it did little that OS X would not do. Earlier versions had a fairly easy to use GUI but as it developed it became more tedious and unreliable than using OS X on the same hardware. It was far from cheap for unlimited users even with educational discounts.
At one time OS X Server was more advanced than the same version number OS X - about half a version ahead.
I am not saying that it may not be faster to set up if you have had previous OS X Server experience but it is a steep learning curve after only OS X experience. The average user would get there faster with one of the many tutorials on the web about using OS X as a server.
At one time OS X Server had a security bug in that it confused FTP root with machine root under some conditions leaving the whole disk open to the public.

Backup problem with Time Capsule over Router

Hello fellas,
I am facing a back up problem with my TC(2TB) with Time machine. When I try to back up it gets stuck at "preparing backup". However when i directly connect to it via its own wifi, everything works like a charm. I even erased older back ups and created a new one. When I, however, switch back to the router setting (TC connected to a Router and me connecting over wifi) I still do see the erased backup on the right side. When I try accessing them, I get a black window where I should be seen a mirror of the desktop. I can manually (over Finder) add and erase files in the TC. The TC does pick IP and is active.
I did verify and repair the TC.(Permission tab was grey)
OS 10.9.5
TC version: 7.7.3
Hope you guys can help me.

Mavericks has a lot of issues with networking.. And it effects TM and the TC more than most things.
Apple finally fessed up there was some issues.
OS X Mavericks: Time Machine problems
Let me recommend you follow exactly the same list as in this thread.
I just updated Safari 7.1 and OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 now my Time Machine is not backing up and I don't know how to fix it.
In your situation there is a couple of other things to add.
Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only.
I am not sure how your router is handling ipv6 or bonjour for that matter.. both are necessary to have TM work.
If that doesn't solve it..
Use Finder to force the connection to the TC to AFP protocol.
From top menu, Go, Connect to Server.
Type AFP://TCgenx.local (where you replace TCgenx with your nice new short name). local is the default domain in the TC and it can help to specify as your router is probably using a different domain.
Even better is to use the TC IP address.. but it has to be static.. so you will need to set it by dhcp reservation in the main router.
AFP://192.168.0.100 (replace with the actual TC IP you can get it from the summary screen in airport utility but must be static).
If you still have issues post back more details.
What router are you using make and model?
If it is not apple compatible it may simply never work.. some routers do not handle specific apple protocols like airplay or bonjour and this affects how it works with TM.

Time Machine backup problems with firewire 800 since Mavericks

Since I installed Mavericks about a week ago, I have had problems with TM not working with my LaCie external drive. At best, it would not back up when the mac was awakened from sleep mode and in use. When I would open time machine preferences, I would see the "preparing for back up" prompt that would last forever. Not only was it doing that, I have found that it would freeze my mac. I figured this out when I was not able to get my mac to respond from the login screen. It was basically frozen and couldn't log on. I noticed the back up drive light flickering but nothing would happen even with waiting a long time. I finally figured out that shutting off the TM EHD would unfreeze the mac and it would start functioning normal again. This was happening with my external HD daisy chained to another external drive that contains my iPhoto, iMovie and Itunes files. That drive was also connected to the mac using firewire 800. I tried many different configurations, switched the order the drives were daisy chained, tried different cables and even directly connected the TM drive with firewire 800 to the mac, but the problems still persisted. The strange thing is that when I connect the TM drive through USB, it works flawlesly and no hanging up of the computer. Thats what Ive been forced to do. I have my other EHD connected directly through firewire 800 and it works fine. I only have one firewire 800 port, and since it works fine with my other LaCie drive, it makes me think its not the port or macs hardware? I can only guess this is a Time Machine issue or something wrong with my TM drive? I have been in contact with LaCie and given them all these details but I have not heard back yet on what they feel the problem is. I thought I would post this to see if anyone else had some experience with this problem.

Forgot to mention I did that. Completely erased and reformatted HD and then reconnected to TM. Didn't help. I did have the mac hang up while installing Mavericks and had to eventually shut off the external drive. It did that to me the firs time I tried to install Mavericks and I lost all my data because it did a clean install after that. I had another back up on CCC so I just restored from there. This time the update to Mavericks transferred my data. I have had TM hang up my mac in the past on occasion, but I was always able to shut down the drive and then the mac would return to normal. Perhaps I should try to erase and reformat again?

Since upgrading to ios7 I have intermittent wifi problems with ipad2

since upgrading to ios7 I have intermittent wifi problems with ipad2

You need a larger internal drive and you definitely need to uninstall any Avast product, using the instructions at the developer's website. A 120GB SSD with only 9.6GB free just isn't going to cut it - you need at least 9GB in free space just to run Mavericks and many people suggest that 10-15% of your disk (particularly on a SSD) should be free space.
Good luck,
Clinton
