Cloud media and backup assistance

I just added backup assistance to my plan and the cloud media, I cannot find my pictures or videos from my phone.   Does anyone know what happened for them to disappear?

  • Turning Media Server on makes Lenovo EZ Media and Backup Center un-usable

    I have a Lenovo EZ MEdia and BAckup Center. It was sent to me (under warranty)  to replace an Iomega model which failed.
    If I turn on Media Server the device becomes un-usable. Logging onto the device and then selecting any operation takes 5 to 10 Minutes for each interaction. All windows network drives configured to the device become inaccessible. 
    When I turn it off then I can access all my windows networked drives again and I can log on and interact with the device without problem. Obviously anything which needs the media server function can no longer see the device. 
    I have the latest firmware 4.1.106.31982
    This problem really needs fixing. I will be looking for another device if this carries on 

    Hello wafitz
    I seems you are experiencing a variation of this issue "Media scan causes the device interface to become unavailable".
    I have also seen similar situations that happened when data is added to the unit when media server is enabled.  
    This could cause media server to potentially lock and cause performance issues to the rest of the unit.

  • Is it possible to set my IPhone 5S to automatically backup to the Verizon cloud or to backup assistant. The only settings I see is where it will remind me to do. Can it be set to automatically do this, like my Droid did.

        We want your information backed up as easily as possible, Todd536. With Verizon Cloud, you can not only tell the application when to back up automatically, but what you want backed up each time. Visit http://bit.ly/1f5sO4P for all the steps to manage your Verizon Cloud on your iPhone.

  • HELP!!! Contacts gone and backup assistant isnt restoring them?

    I lost my contacts 2 months ago on my iphone 4s. The numbers were saved in my text messages though, so I went by those, and re entered the names to match, etc. That saved half of them (115). Then, it happened again last week. so, same thing, and this time, downloaded the Verizon BackUp Assitant app, and synced as I added the names back in. Today, same thing happened, contacts gone, and nothing in my backUp assistant...PLEASE HELP! I have my own business, so contacts are crucial to my every move!!

    Verizon backup assistant stinks.  My 4s keeps dumping my contacts and backup assistant dumped them all too.  You stink

  • EZ Media and Backup - all data disappeared

    I have an Iomega EZ Media and Backup 2TB system I've been using for about a year with no problems.
    Yesterday had a very strange issue, was having trouble connecting so rebooted with button on the back (pressed for under 5 seconds).
    Drive shut down, hit the button again to turn back on, connected from laptop, all my files, about 1.8TB are gone!
    User accounts, settings, directories are all still there, but all files are gone and picture at the top shows the drive as being empty.
    Is there any way for me to recover this?
    I believe everything was fine after upgrading to firmware 4.0.8.23976, but I'm not 100% that didn't cause the issue.

    Hi mattgaines,
    Pressing and holding the power button is not recommended because it may result in data loss. I'm not sure if this is the cause since you said it was for under 5 seconds, but it is possible. It could also be the firmware on the device. Some customers have been able to get their data back by adding the shares back by the same name, but since the directories are still there that might not work.
    Is this device still covered by the warranty? I think it would be best if you contacted technical support to see if they can troubleshoot the device to get the data back. However, data recovery is not covered under the warranty. If the data cannot be retrieved, you will have to use a data recovery service to try to get the data back.

  • Lenovo EZ Media and Backup Center MUY LENTO

    Hola buen dia a todos. Tengo un Lenovo® EZ Media and Backup Center 2T el cual solo lo uso como BackUp de la empresa conectado en Red con direccion IP estatica como cualquier otro equipo de la red conectado directamente a un Switch 3Com. Los primeros dias volaba pero luego, ya casi un año, esta imposible de lento. Acceder a buscar algun dato es una tarea que demanada muuucha pasiencia. Cambie las configuraciones de red dejandola dinamicas a ver si ese era el problema, restaure toda la configuracion desde el boton de Reset y asi y todo nada, es lentisimo, si bien las copias de datos se realizan bien con COBIAN cada vez que necesito acceder es imposible. Esto es asi? Hay algo que pueda modificar? aparte de decirme el Storage Manager que el dispositivo no esta disponible....esta en la misma red que el resto de las PCs con sus DNS Wins Gateway todo igual y me dice que forma parte de otra "subRed" jajaja
    Alguna sugerencia?? Gracias

    Hello deboerpp
    You might have found a solution already, but figured i'd mention this.
    Your xbox should be finding the ez media via the ez media's built-in UPnP media server.  After adding data to a unit while media server is turned on it is possible that the media server feature is crashing. 
    I recommend turning off media server from the web interface of the ez media, rebooting the unit, then turning media server backon and running a media scan.  
    Give the unit about 10-15 minutes then try refreshing any connected media player/xbox

  • 2TB Iomega EZ Media and Backup NAS connection failure.

    Hi,
    Can someone please explain to me why my 2TB Iomega EZ Media and Backup with the newest firmware installed often suddenly cannot be approached anymore whatever I try. My desktop (W8.0) says “Cannot find networkpath “. Code: 0x80070035. IE. says “Cannot find server”. White and blue leds are on.
    And after a few hours or sometimes days it reconnects again all by itself. What can I do, suggestions welcome.
    Thanks,
    Wil

    Hi Andrew, Thank you for your response.
    Does anybody else have access to the device that might be trying to log in? Have you enabled security on the device? If not, I would recommend enabling security and make sure that your device is secure by reading the following support article: Security Best Practices Guidelines
    Nobody else has acces to the device. Security is enabled.
    You might want to set up a static IP address as well: Configuring a static IP address
    A static Ip address has been set up after installation, otherwise it won`t function.
    If the problem persists, you can try to reset the network and user settings with the reset button on the back of the device. Press and hold the reset button for four seconds. Using the device reset button
    This I will try.
    OR
    Reset the entire device using the Factory Reset from the web interface. This will erase all of your data, however.
    This is only a last resort as the device is full with data.
    You can also contact technical support to troubleshoot the issue further since you are still covered by the warranty.
    This I will do if the problem persists.
    Thanks a lot for your advice.
    Wil

  • Cloud App VS Backup Assistant App???

    I have the Galaxy S4 phone and want to know if the Cloud App is the same as the Backup Assistant App I had on my old phone.  I have gone to the Play Store and can no longer find the Backup Assistant App.  Is the CLoud App the newer version???

        Hello dctajar. I'm glad to see you are taking advantage of saving your information. Backup Assistant Plus is still available on your phone by going to Settings>Accounts>Backup Assistant Plus. Verizon Cloud is a one stop shop for backing up your information. With Verizon Cloud you have 5 GB of storage space at no cost, and you can store contacts, call logs, text messages, media and documents. With Backup Assistant plus, you are able to backup your contacts and media with 500 MB of free storage space.

  • $30 upgrade fee is for Wireless Workshops and Backup Assistant Plus?

    I recently upgraded my device, over the phone, using the 2 year discount price of $199. I was completely unaware and never told by the VZW agent that I would be paying an extra $30 to help VZW offset the cost of Wireless Workshops and their Backup Assistant+ crap. The agent on the phone told me to expect a $199 + tax charge on my next bill but failed to mention the extra $30 and, to be quite honest, I'm pretty upset about this. I called the customer support line and was told the $30 free is there to support the cost of the Backup Assistant Plus service (which I do not use and have completely removed it from my phone because it's trash) as well as the Wireless Workshops they offer in their stores. This is complete ** and if I had been made aware of this nickle and dime scheme by VZW when I was upgrading, I would have canceled my upgrade and gone with another carrier instead of signing another 2 year contract. I will NEVER go to a workshop for a device, service, whatever that I know how to use or could spend an hour researching online so why am I having to pay for this? I use Titanium Backup Pro and the Android SDK environment to backup my phone and data instead of the clunky Backup Assistant Plus trash. In fact, I've completely removed all traces of BA+ on my phone...
    So why am I "donating" $30 to Verizon for services that I, and I'm willing to bet most people, don't use? Why wasn't I made aware of this by the VZW agent I spoke to on the phone?

    The final price of the phone was $260. I was told by the VZW agent to expect a ~$199 + tax ($215) charge on my next bill. There was no mention of a $30 upgrade fee. I was not notified BEFORE the purchase, and if it's listed on the discount upgrade page it's not very clear.
    I did not see the articles in the news about this fee in the past and VZW did not make it clear to me that I would be charged this fee. I expect the VZW phone agent to make me aware of the fee's associated with any service I use, like this upgrade, but the agent failed to mention it.
    Yes, I am complaining about the discount. I'm already unhappy that I was forced to lose my unlimited data plan when upgrading (unless I paid for the phone in full), but being charged an extra $30 for "services" like BA+ and workshops is absurd. Regardless of how much of a discount it was I don't like having surprise fee's come up on my cell phone bill. Why don't they include that free in the displayed upgrade price? Why not show $229.99 instead of $199.99?
    And it's 57% discount, not 60%+
    Well according to the stats you just posted sales tax is 8% so since you insist on including that, then at full price a $600 phone plus 8% is $648. $260/$648 is 40% thus you received a 60% discount. Also even at 57%, you are complaining about a 57% discount? Really? If you went to a car dealer and got a 57% discount you'd be ecstatic. If you got a TV for 57% you'd be ecstatic.
    This fee was announced April 11th 2012 It made ALL the major news sources.

    There is no way you were not told in some fashion. You say VZW agent. So you ordered this over the phone? Ok so where did you see the phone you wanted? Um at this site? Well the fee is listed VERY clearly on the price of the phone. if youw ent into a VZW store it;s CLEARLY listed on the price tags.

  • Get it Now and Backup Assistant

    I use a Motorola RAZR.  I understand now Verizon no longer supports Get it Now on this phone.  Is there a way to directly install backup assistant, VZ Navigator and Mobile Email onto the phone?  VZ customer service only told me to upgrade and offered no real assistance

    Please disregard this post....I see this is posted elsewhere on this forum

  • Curve 8530 and backup assistant

    I had bu assistant working for months. I don't know if it's the upgraded OS or something else but the addition I made to my contacts a week ago does not show up online. If I click on bu assistant on the BB it only offers to "restore" which is probabloy not a great idea if the online version is not as updated as the cell. If I "sync" on the bu assistant online page, the red and black thing keeps moving but I don't see anything else happening.
    Any suggestions? (BTW I do use the BB desktop software for backups and I installed aurkon bu but can't tell if it's up to date.)
    Thanks.....

    On one phone I uninstalled, it rebooted, I downloaded it from vzstart, installed and it rebooted. But all it wanted to do was to restore. I ignored it and an hour later it did the backup. No new pin.
    On the 2nd phone I did all that above, twice, with no luck. Did it again the next day and decided to let it do a restore. Ironically it did a backup of over 10 numbers after the restore but did not show up on the web.I installed "lookout" which Verizon suggested when they phoned me after I had left an email on their contact page. They told me there are issues with BUA and they are working on it.  Guess what - 3 hours later the changes showed up on the web. So I supposedly have 3 backups going (BB desktop, BUA, lookout) and don't know if any work or if upgrading the OS ruins them.
    The thing is, is this going to happen every single time there is an OS upgrade?. (This message looks half like a complaint and  half like I'm happy things are working! Oh well)

  • 2TB Iomega EZ Media and Backup NAS

    Hi, I have a hard disk failure on the unit and would like to replace it. What utilities do I need to prepare a replacement drive and where can I obtain them? My unit is out of warranty and SeaTools shows the drive has failed.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello marticus
    Unofficially this process from NAS-Central.org should allow you to create a usb firmware field imager for the EZ media.  
    This thread should also help with what you are looking to do.  Keep in mind that the firmware was intended for the disk that would have shipped with the unit,  I can't say for certain if the unit will run properly if the firmware is able to install on the hard disk using the suggested method. 
    Hope it all works out for you!

  • How do I turn off the notification in Backup Assistant Plus Media?

    If you turn on "schedule backup", there is nowhere to select the time of the backup. Setting the time of "Recurring Sync" in Backup Assistant + Contacts has no affect on the time of the backup in Backup Assistant Plus Media. Invariably it runs it a 3 am and then sounds the default notification sound. I can't find any way to stop it except to set the default notification sound to "silent". There are some notifications that I want to hear, so this is not a good solution. Does anyone know how to turn off the notification sound?

        timsak,
    Great question! We don't want these notfications keeping anybody up late at night and I personally know how what feels; we'll get to the bottom of it. You can access your Backup assistant plus profile on our website and ajust settings there http://vz.to/1mOFxfz and from your phone, adjust the Sound Settings and Backup Assistant Plus Settings by launching your System Settings. If problems persist, please reset the application from your phone http://vz.to/18HfhrM .

  • Backup Assistant - I am posting as a new item as this issue is shown as resolved and it is not.

    I just got my second LG Cosmo 2 phone device and am having the same problem noted by others.  I was told by a customer service rep to take my first phone back to a local store and exchange as the backup assistant problem I am having will be resolved.  Well it did not resolve...read on.  The first time I go to use the phone in the morning Backup Assistant is checking if changes to my directory have occurred.  You have to unlock the phone to let it complete or you hit end to cancel the update.  I have worked with customer service to fix the problem with no success.  We have deleted backup assistant, which apparently re-installs automatically when you access "Apps".  One customer service agent told me to change my schedule from midnight to some other time in the day as sometimes the Verizon systems are not available from midnight to 6 am.  I am totally frustrated with this annoying issue every morning and especially if you are in a hurry to answer or make a call.  Seems to me  the backup assistant application could have a schedule option of "off" or "manual" so that this problem goes away.  Let the phone user determine how they want to manage their directory backups.  I've been in the software business for over 30 years and backup assistant is just poorly designed and it is proven by the numerous complaints similar to mine.  It would be so simple to fix with a software update and stop a lot of wasted time in this forum or unnecessary calls to customer reps.  It anyone has a solution please let me know. Thank you much.

    Hi gmeyerco,
    I know how frustrating it can be to have Backup Assistant connect randomly.  The next step I would take would be to uninstall the application and reinstall it.  Please follow these steps to uninstall/reinstall:
    To Uninstall:
    Press Menu
    PressMediaCenter
    Press Browse and Download
    Highlight Backup Assistant
    Choose options on the bottom left
    Choose Cancel Subscription
    To Reinstall:
    Press Menu
    PressMediaCenter
    Press Browse and Download
    Press Backup Assistant
    Choose Free Subscription
    Then follow the steps for installation and set up.
    I am certain this step will resolve your issue, please reach out to us if the steps do not resolve your concern and we will certainly continue with trouble shooting.
    Thanks,

  • Why do I get "communication error" when selecting Contacts in Backup Assist Plus?

    Have reset Backup Assistant Plus due to sync Errorcode 5 using Verizon response to others in this forum.  After running Backup Assist Plus again, I find that I cannot select Contacts for backup. I get a message that says "Error - There was a communication error".  I was able to select pictures and these were successfully backed up.  Any suggestions?

        Hello BobS3!
    We absolutely want to make sure your contacts are backing up as well! I'm sorry you're running in to this concern. Let's figure this out together. Just to clarify, you mentioned you reset Backup Assistant Plus. Was this by following these steps: http://vz.to/14Iv5eS and clearing the data for the Sync Service and Backup Assistant apps?
    Additionally, here is the easiest way to backup your contacts: http://vz.to/17zlkh3
