Crashing during Time Capsule Backup

We have two Macbook Pros and we connect to the Internet using a Time Capsule.  Lately, while the time capsule backs up, our computers either freeze, run very slowly, or drop the Internet connection all together and Firefox crashes.  In the past, when the Time Capsule was backing up there was no noticable  interference with operation. 

Both Macs freeze up (or run so slowly that they seem frozen) during the backup.  Only my computer crashes on Firefox (my wife is using Safari).  The freeze/slowdown will occur during backup no matter what program is running.  My wife was in the middle of typing a Word document and even though she was typing, the characters weren't appearing on the page.  All of a sudden the computer would "catch-up" and put the last two sentances on the page all at once.  Then it would freeze again.  No problem with either computer during "non-backup" periods. 
It's like the Timecapsule is taking over all functionality on the computer whhen it backs up.  We only use the Wi-Fi connection and haven't tried backing up on ethernet.  Due to the location of the Timecapsule, it isn't feasable to connect via ethernet.

  • Time Capsule backup for multiple users

    I have my iMac setup so that each member of my family has their own account. I am the administrator. When I run a time capsule backup is it backing up their files as well or do I need to create a backup for their accounts.
    If I create individual backups for their accounts will it backup the shared files like the applications or just files specific to their accounts? Is this something I need to control by selecting what files to exclude in the preferences
    Time capsule seems great for simple backups but concerns me if I ever have a HD crash. It seems very difficult to restore a backup to a new mac if I ever have to do that. Does anyone else have this concern? I am considering buying another external drive and use SuperDuper to create full bootable backups at least once every 6 months or so.
    Thanks,
    Gil

    It is much harder to check what Time Machine has backed up.. you can assume that everything currently needed to reproduce the same setup on another computer is there.
    To double check you must spend a bit of time understanding both how Time Machine works and how to restore from it.
    Read up a bit from Pondini's excellent KnowledgeBase of articles.
    http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    Q7-9 are highly relevant.
    Also go back to the main page and read the main articles on how TM works.
    I must also say at the moment, on Yosemite in particular, I would not fully trust Time Machine.
    I encourage people to make a bootable clone using Carbon Copy Cloner for example to a USB drive. You do not need to do it continually but the clone makes for a much easier return to normal.. since you can simply change boot disks. It costs $40 and is excellent value.. there are others you can buy.. and I am not connected to CCC in any way.. other than I use it and been amazed at what a great piece of software it is.

  • Time capsule backup with no username/password

    I had a imac 27" have a HD crash. The time capsule backups need ausername and password. I  do not have these and have tried many options does anyone know a way to do a restore without username and password?

    Sure.. read Pondini brilliant KB.. Try Q 16-18

  • Cannot find time capsule backup to restore

    Hello - I have a MacMini (Intel Core 2 duo) runing OS 10.6.7.   I used Time Machine to backup my data daily to a remote Time Capsule on my local network;  I should also say at this point that I use Time Capsule to backup 4 machines in total.    The hard drive crashed, and needed to be replaced.   Now I am trying to restore my data to my computer.  However, neither migration assistant nor time capsule can find the correct image (sparsebundle) to be mounted - for example, when I "Choose Time Machine Disk to Browse" no disks show up. Migration Assistant behaved a little differently, showing me 2 (out of 4) Time Capsule backups, but not the one relevant for this particular computer. 
    I know that backups have been performed, and I can manualy mount the specific Time Machine Backup through the finder - at which point I can "see" folders named "yyyy-mm-dd-xxxxxx,"  just as interesting is a file "yyyy-mm-dd-xxxxxxx.inProgress" - and which appears to be the latest date at which the folder was accessed.  I have attached a screen shot of the contents of the folder.
    Any thoughts?   I really just need to restore the most recent backup, the rest are not necessary past this point.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I just ran into the same problem, neither the Migration Assistant nor "Restore from Backup" from the 10.5 Install DVD would find a valid backup on my Time Capsule (which kinda renders it useless).
    After some googling and trial and error I found a workaround using Terminal. I don't know why mounting the sparebundle image with Disk Utility wouldn't work, but it isn't available when your computer crashed anyway... So here is my method:
    -Boot from the System DVD, choose the language
    (-Goto Utilities and start the Disk Utility and reformat your drive, if on Intel check that you partition it with GUID, NOT Apple Partition Scheme NOR MBR, restart from DVD) only if something went wrong with your disk like in my case
    -Goto Utilities and start Terminal
    -In Terminal first make a directory for the mount, type: mkdir /Volumes/MyBackup
    -Then mount the Time Capsule and link it to the folder you created, type: mount -t afp afp://myuser:mypassword@IPAdressOfMyTimecapsule/VolumeWhereMyBackupIs /Volume/MyBackup
    -The AFP-Volume is now mounted, but you can't see anywhere.
    -Quit Terminal, this will bring you back to the 10.5 Installer.
    -Goto Utilities and choose "Restore System From Backup"
    -The Dialog will ask you for a Backup Source. You should now see your Time Capsule and an already mounted Time Machine Volume at the location you specified in Terminal.
    -Select the Time Machine Volume and press Continue, it'll take a while you show you all the backups, choose the one you want, choose a destination, drink tea.

  • How to connect my new MacBook Air to a LaCie hard disk with TIme Capsule backup from my old Imac? LaCie has USB 2.0, FireWire and eSata ports.

    How can I connect my new MacBook Air to a LaCie hard disk with TIme Capsule backup from my old Imac? LaCie has USB 2.0, FireWire and eSata ports.

    You can direct connect your MBA to the LaCie via USB 2 cable.  If you have an Apple Airport Router you can USB connect the LaCie drive to the router and then use Airport Utility to configure it.  Time Machine can access it either way.

  • Restoring an existing Time Capsule backup to a new HD

    The hard drive on my 6 month old MacBook Pro failed inexplicably several days ago. After wasting half a day trying to repair the disk, I caved in and made an appointment at the dreaded "Genius" Bar.
    They verified my suspicions; complete failure. They kept the laptop, ordered a new drive and two days later informed me it was fixed. I sat down and connected it to my Time Capsule with an ethernet cable. When I turned it on, it played through that now insufferable multicultural "welcome"-in-twenty-languages jam and I followed Apple's instructions +Restoring an existing Time Capsule backup to a new Mac+:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1177?viewlocale=en_US
    My favorite step is #12: +Your Mac will check the Time Machine backup for a period of time.+ When that period was clearly going to be a while, I went on a run, came back 40 minutes later and...it had returned me to the initial post-willkommen-bienvenido-etc. screen where I get to choose a language. Okay, my bad for leaving it unattended. I started over at #2, and this time it only took about half an hour. It showed the folders on the Time Capsule, I selected all of them, and clicked Transfer.
    Almost immediately, it dove back into the welcome song! Now, for the third time, I'm at step #12. It's been over half an hour, and still no sign of hope. Just the progress bar checking for backups.
    Would they have installed Snow Leopard on my Leopard machine? I definitely told them what I had been running, but it seems like a plausible reason for the hang-ups.
    Any advice would be much appreciated, thanks!

    Connect to your Time Capsule via Ethernet if at all possible.
    After booting from your Leopard Install disc and selecting Utilities, select +Disk Utility+ and see if it can find the +sparse bundle+ containing your backups on your Time Capsule. You may have to join the network, etc., via the Airport icon in the menubar. If you can get the sparse bundle to appear in Disk Utility's sidebar, select it and do a +*Repair Disk+* (not permissions) on it.
    Would they have installed Snow Leopard on my Leopard machine? I definitely told them what I had been running, but it seems like a plausible reason for the hang-ups.
    That's fairly likely; it happens a lot, probably because most folks have upgraded and installing SL has become a habit. But it shouldn't matter -- as long as you're using your Leopard Install disc, it should work fine. Once the restore actually starts, the first thing that happens is your internal HD is erased, and everything is restored from your backups.
    It's also possible that whatever was going wrong on your internal HD corrupted something critical in your installation of OSX, and the corrupted stuff was backed-up, and that's what's giving TM a problem. If nothing else seems to help, try restoring from a previous backup.

  • Use external drive for Time Capsule backups AND file storage?

    I have an external drive formatted by my MBP.  I'm using it to store my iTunes music library and iPhoto pics.  Can I use the drive for Time Capsule backups as well?

    Yes, but that is not recommended. Storage and backup should be kept separate to reduce the chances of a disk failure. This is especially important because you cannot even partition a Time Capsule drive. Go get a separate drive for your storage needs. Get another drive for a second backup and use a different method of backup than Time Machine

  • Can't Connect to My Time Capsule Backups, Please Help!!!

    I have been using Time Machine/Time Capsule to back my data up for over a year. I bought a new MacBook Pro this morning. I did not want to use Migration Assistant to transfer everything over because there were many bugs and corruptions on my old disk and was scared that would all be transferred to my new machine. It was time for a fresh start.
    I set up my new computer and transferred most of the files I needed via a flash drive. I am now trying to set up my MacBook Pro to connect to my Time Capsule backup disk via Time Machine, but once I enter Time Machine it does not allow me to go "back in time" to see all of my previous backups and restore points. There are some really important files I am trying to get to, but this computer isnt connecting to the Time Capsule backups. The old computer has already been completely reformatted, but it is still able to access the Time Capsule backups.
    I have done some internet research and learned that Time Machine uses a computer's ethernet MAC address to allow access. There are some codes posted on various websites that allow to alter what Time Machine thinks you MAC address is so that you can access your backups with a new computer/different logic board. None of these Terminal workarounds worked for me. The Genius Bar and Apple Care couldn't help either.
    I am hoping somebody can help me out. I understand I can use my old computer to get into Time Machine and retrieve what I need then transfer those to the new machine. But there must be a way to allow a new computer to fully access Time Capsule backups, but curiously, I can't find it. I rather have my new computer have full access because I am selling the old laptop and so I wont be able to use it to access my backups any longer.
    Sorry for the long explanation, but I hope that gives someone all the facts required to both understand what I am saying and help me fix the problem.
    -Amir

    Right now it is just empty because I have unmounted and disconnected my Time Capsule. I'm trying a low-tech work around to see if this works, but much rather do it the "right way."
    What I am doing is this:
    (1) Use Migration Assistant to copy everything from the Time Capsule to the new machine (this is exactly what I was trying to avoid initially). Migration Assistant has been copying files for about 5 hours now (still not sure what is going to happen).
    (2) Create a full backup on Time Capsule with my MacBook Pro now that it has everything from the Time Capsule on it.
    (3) Do a fresh install of Snow Leopard.
    (4) Hopefully, have the fresh start on my machine I wanted, but still have access to at least one archived copy of my old computer and files/folders.
    Does this make sense? Basically, the new machine does not allow me to access the old backups. So I am handicapping the machine now by reverting to my old settings via Migration Assistant, will back that up, then start all over from scratch again but hopefully have the peace of mind that my files are not gone because I will at least have that one copy of all my old copies in a Time Capsule backup that the new machine can access.

  • While trying to setup a time capsule backup to my MyBookLive external drive, I got the following error message: The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features. What's up with this?

    While trying to setup a time capsule backup to my MyBookLive external drive, I got the following error message: The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features. What's up with this?

    This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

  • Problems with Full restore using Time Capsule backup???

    For some reason my MacBook Pro recently crapped out completely, and I am trying to do a complete restore of the OS via a full backup I made with using Time Machine onto my Time Capsule disk, but I am running into some problems doing so and I was hoping someone might have some insight as to how I should deal with things at this point...
    Here's where things get messy...
    - I insert my Mac OS X 10.5 Installation DVD into my Macbook and boot from the drive, and I immediately choose the menu option to 'Restore from Time Capsule Backup'...
    - After logging into my Time Capsule and then choosing the proper .sparseimage file to restore from, I click 'continue' and it brings me to the screen where I choose where I want to restore to (which in my case, is the one and only internal HD inside my Macbook Pro)
    - The bottom of this window tells me that it's "Calculating space required to restore data..." but it simply hangs at the point with a spinning wheel indicating its still doing the calculating, but never actually presents me with the space required, not does it allow me to click continue to perform the restore?? I've allowed it over an hour to calculate the space required and it still just spins its status wheel...
    This is where I am stuck at this point, and I have no idea how to get it to proceed to the next step to allow me to perform the restore??
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I will have no choice but to do a complete reinstall (including all apps and data) if I can't get the backup restored... Thanks!

    I had the same problem when installing a new HDD in my Macbook. The solution I found was to reinstall Leopard onto the new HDD from the install CD, then reboot off the install CD once I had done this. I was then able to choose the 'Restore from Time Capsule' option and get my HDD to show up in the window.
    A word of warning, once you have reinstalled Leopard and it starts asking you for all you info, as if for the first time to set up your computer, there is an option at the end of that process to restore your data from a Time Capsule backup. While this did restore all my files and so forth, it did not update any of the 'Apple' apps, i.e. iTunes, iPhoto, Quicktime, or the operating system itself, suggesting a 500Mb download via 'Software Update' to update the system. It was faster for me to reboot of the install CD and restore via the process outlines above. That way you get all your system updates included.
    Not sure if this is the 'approved' method but it worked for me! The restore process took about 75 minutes for about 100Gb of data from my external backup drive connected to my Macbook via a Firewire cable.
    Hope this helps!

  • System "hiccup" during Time Machine Backups

    Over the course of the past week or so, I've noiticed that my system will freeze/stall/hiccup (whatever you call it) during Time Machine backups. This will apply to YouTube/Vimeo videos, iTunes (where I noticed it... it's like the song pauses and resumes 2 or 3 times over 10 seconds), task switching, text entry, etc. Again, this is only a recent thing.
    Here's a log of what I was doing during this last backup. Didn't check the time when iTunes froze, but it happened at least twice, maybe 3 times.

    The boot drive is failing, or you have some other hardware fault.
    Back up all data immediately, then make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to bare metal from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • Is it possible to recover the contents of a "Sent Mail" folder that was accidentally deleted?  We have complete Time Capsule backups.

    We lost the contents of a "Sent Mail" folder when our ISP asked us to delete and re-create the account in an attempt to solve a connection problem.
    Is there any way to re-create these messages from stuff in the Library or from a Time Capsule backup?
    Thank you.

    Yes.
    Open the Sent folder in Mail.
    Go to the menu bar and ask to Enter Time Machine.
    Go back in time until you find the messages you want.
    Restore them.
    Of course I am assuming your backup disk is connected, or you have adequate local snapshots.

  • Time Machine issues (16030) sparsebundle" is already in use for Time Capsule backup

    Time Machine issues (16030) sparsebundle” is already in use for Time Capsule backup process.  Just started happeing been using it for over two years.

    First, restart the computer and the Time Capsule. In most of the cases, this solve the problem.

  • Attempting to use Migration Assistant to restore a Time Capsule backup to a mounted partitioned drive?

    Had a power surge and my Mac Pro did not fare well. Was able to boot from one of the drives in read only mode, so I did a Time Capsule backup of everything on the drive. Reinstalled Mountain Lion. Booted the computer up and am trying to use Migration Assistant to take the Time Capsule backup and restore it to the 1TB drive. When I use Migration Assistant, it says that there is not enough space on the drive to do the restore. I looked in Disk Utility and saw that the start up disk is another one of the 1TB drives with about 600GB used, therefore not enough space to do the restore. I want to restore to the original drive, but it says it is a "Mounted Partitioned Drive". Can I use Migration Assistant to restore a Time Capsule backup to this mounted partitioned drive?
    Thanks in advance for any help - greatly appreciated.

    I am not sure, never had to go there, I have multiple bootable clones of the system online and off, and a couple 1500VA/900W UPS units powering everything.

  • New Macbook does not recognize Time Capsule backup from old macbook

    I just purchased a late 2013 13" macbook pro. I have a mid 2009 macbook pro running Mavericks. The new macbook will not recognize the time capsule backup from my old macbook. I am trying to migrate all data over, but the new mac does not ever acknowledge the external drive that contains the backup. I've tried two different external drives with the same result each time. Both computers are running Mavericks.

    Do you see the drive in Disk Utility?
    If yes, run Repair Permissions then restart the drive.
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Applications/Utility folder.
    2. Click on the First Aid tab and select Repair Permissions
    3. Click on the icon for your boot volume.
    4. Click the repair permissions button.
    In System Preferences > Time Machine can you select the old Time Machine with Select Disk?
