Can I access my backup files inside the airport using finder?

When I tried to open some files inside the airport extreme appear this message:
The alias “Documents” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found.
Someone know how to open this file? I didnt lose any file, I just want to open using AirPort.
Thanks

It's recommended NOT to use your AirPort Extreme for backups Mainly because the Time Machine software was not deigned to work with the AirPort Extreme and the Extreme wasn't designed to work with Time Machine. That's why Apple has the Time Capsule, for wireless backups.
Try connecting your hard drive directly to your computer.

Can I delete all my contacts on the BB using Finder?

I can sync everything except contacts on the DTM. For address book, I get the dreaded "KB19454" error. When it did sync, it repeated only one name 156 times.
I've found a work around using google contacts and google sync, which has gotten other people's numbers onto my phone, but I can't get that one person off. I'd like to just delete the contacts file on the BB using finder and start over with google sync. Anyone know how to do that?

Great tip on typing "rset" to deleted your BB contacts. My issue is that I duplicated contacts after syncing my Curve with the BB Desktop Manager for Mac. On my Curve, I have 2 address books on my BB. Using the desktop manager, I deleted all my contacts. I then did the "rset' on my BB for good measure. So my BB now shows 2 address books that are both empty. And if I open up either 1 then it shows as empty, too. However, if I show "all address books" then I have all the contacts still there.
How do I get rid of them? I've already deleted them manually twice and am tired of doing that for 900+ contacts.
Any way I can delete these contacts on my BB that the desktop manager doesn't see?

Do you mean Time Machine.. ??
TIme machine backups have to be restored correctly.. you cannot open them.
Read the info in Pondini.. Q14-17.
http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
If you want to directly open files from a TC then you need to copy them there from finder.. but you must be careful as the TC is a backup device and not a file store.

How can I access a response file on the same computer but with different login?

When trying to access a response file on the same computer that was used to set it up, but with a different login, I get an error message that the network resource was not found. How can I retrieve the responses on the same computer but under a different login/username?

The response file is associated with a specific login (as determined under Edit > Preferences > Identity) so you cannot retrieve it if you're using a different login.

How can I read a text file inside the .xsjs?

I need to read line by line of a text file just like FileReader and BufferedReader in Java. It contains a script SQL to insert data in my DB. Can I use some API?

There is no API that allows you to access the file system of the server in XSJS. You would need to upload the file from the client side and it will appear as a array buffer in the request object. From there you can convert the array buffer to a string and process however you like.
For example:
var content = "";
    content = $.request.body.asArrayBuffer();
    var array = new Uint8Array(content);
    var encodedString = String.fromCharCode.apply(null,array),
         decodedString = decodeURIComponent(escape(encodedString));
        content = decodedString;
    var lines = content.split(/\r\n|\n/);

Can't access old backup file on iCloud

When I bought my new iPhone (5s), I did a backup of my old one (iPhone 4). I did the restore and only some of my data came over, including only a fraction of my photos. Now, when I check my space on the cloud, the old iPhone backup is there and it is huge! How can I access this data and manage it? I only have an iPhone and iPad, no PC. The only option I can find through my phone or iPad is to keep or delete the whole mass, but it doesn't show me what's actually there.

You can see any of the content of the backup without restoring it to your device, and as you indicated, the only option in settings is to delete it. It should contain your camera roll photos, which are included by default. If they didn't restore, about all you can do is try restoring the backup again.

How can i access my icloud files from the finder?

I have tried dragging the icloud icon from the toolbar of safari to the toolbar of a finder window without success. There are files from apps I would like to save on my cloud that do not natively support iCloud.
Thanks in advance for your help.
-Fricaseed

The Safari iCloud icon is for iCloud tabs which syncs all of your tabs in Safari between all of your iOS devices and Macs. So basically while you were dragging the iCloud icon into Finder, you were doing nothing. Also iCloud only saves information and files from certain applications such as Reminders, Notes, Messages, Safari, TextEdit, etc. If there are apps that do not natively support iCloud you cannot save their files to iCloud because Apple does not have a feature that can save any file from any app on your Mac. Sorry to tell you this.
Hope this helps,

I restored some files last night and now I can't access my backup and it's full.

Last night I was restoring some image files and everything appear to have gone as planned. The images were back and the time capsule continued to backup my system as before. I got up today and I keep getting a message that my backup is full and I also can't access my backup files. I'm not sure what went wrong. I am running snow leopard and have VMware to run win 7 as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Some questions:
1) What was the volume (file size) of the restored image files?
2) What specifically happens when you try to access your backup files?
3) If you mount your Time Capsule's internal drive (presuming that's where Time Machine is writing its data), how much free space does it have?
By the way, as your problem seems to be specific to Time Machine and not to Time Capsule, I'd post future questions of this nature to the discussion section for your version of OS X.

That's doing it the hard way. Why not use HTTP or FTP?

My computer was formatted but I need to access my old content on my itunes backups. Is there any way I can acquire these iTunes backup files ever again?

I tried recovery software but had no luck!

You reformatted the drive in your computer. The backup files you want to access were overwritten when you re-formatted the drive. They are gone. There may be data recovery services that can get them back. Search google if you want. This has absolutely nothing to do with using an iPhone at this point. You deleted files on your computer...

Open MPlayer OSX and show the playlist (command-shift-p) then drag the file into the playlist. Click the file in the playlist and click the "i"nfo button. What does it list for file, video and audio format?
Not all of the codecs used in avi and wmv files are available for OS X so I'm guessing your file happens to be using one that isn't...

HT2674 I have an iMac purchased in May 2011. OSX Lion 10.7.3. I deleted backup file from the external hard drive. Now, the trash can will not empty some of the files deleted. File folder: "Core Services" contains a locked file: "boot.efi". It will not

I have an iMac purchased in May 2011. OSX Lion 10.7.3. I deleted backup file from the external hard drive which operates from Time Machine.
Now, the trash can will not empty some of the files deleted from the backup harddrive.
The trash contains-- File folder: "Core Services" which contains a locked file: "boot.efi".
It will not delete.
How do I get the trash can empty of these files?

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

How can I copy programs (iWorks) and files from Time Capsule to my HD manually? The problem is that the migration assistant does not recognize my backup file and the user on the TC. (If I open the TC on finder, it it there though)

What photos are you referring to? Are these photos that are in the Camera Roll and Photo Stream albums on the device you backed up, or are they in different albums? Are you signed onto the new phone with the same iCloud ID? Are the Photo Stream photos ones that have been taken in the past 30 days?
When you set up the new phone did you set it up using that backup?
Cheers,
