Time Machine must create a new backup for you

getting this error message Time Machine completed a verification of your backups. To improve reliability, Time Machine must create a new backup for you. don't want to lose the history off my backups how can i fix this without losing any backups.

You really can't.
That's not one of Apple's clearest messages; it means your backups are damaged beyond OSX's ability to repair them. See #C13 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for details.

Getting this error: Time Machine completed a verification of your backups. To improve reliability, Time Machine must create a new backup for you.

I keep getting this error on my new Macbook Pro w/ Retina.
"Time Machine completed a verification of your backups. To improve reliability, Time Machine must create a new backup for you."
Connected to a wifi network and QNAP storage system. There are 5 computers on this network, and each backs up just fine. The issue is isolated to this one machine.
This error shows up every week or so.

A third-party NAS is unsuitable for use with Time Machine, especially if it's your only backup. I know this isn't the answer you want. I know Time Machine accepts the NAS as a backup destination. I know that the manufacturer says the device will work with Time Machine, and I also know that it usually seems to work. Except when you try to restore, and find that you can't.
Apple has published a specification for network devices that work with Time Machine. None of the third-party NAS vendors, as far as I know, meets that specification. They all use the incomplete, obsolete Netatalk implementation of Apple Filing Protocol.
If you want network backup, use as the destination either an Apple Time Capsule or an external storage device connected to another Mac or to an 802.11ac AirPort base station. Only the 802.11ac base stations support Time Machine, not any older model.
Otherwise, don't use Time Machine at all. There are other ways to back up, though none of them is anywhere near as efficient or as well integrated with OS X. I don't have a specific recommendation.
If you're determined to keep using the NAS with Time Machine, your only recourse for any problems that result is to the manufacturer (which will blame Apple, or you, or anyone but itself.)

MOUNTAIN LION, MBP RETINA : Time machine keeps saying to improve reliability, TM must create a new backup for you

Hello
I have a little network with 2 x Macpro, 1 x Macbook pro Retina, 1 x Mac Mini server and one DiskStation.
I have no problem to backup the two Macpro and the Macmini on the Diskstation
But I only have problem with my Macbook pro Retina.
I was told to start the 1st backup using Ethernet
After a few complemantary backup in WIFI I get the message :
I have done this MANY times
I have tried to repair the Backup file
THE PROBLEM IS ONLY WITH THE MACBOOK PRO RETINA IN MOUNTAIN LION
I had Apple support, answer : "no support because you are using a disk station" (I have used this diskstation since many years without ANY problem)
Looks like it is a WIFI problem !!!!
Thanks in advance for your help
Best

Yes. See #C13 in [Time Machine - Troubleshooting|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Troubleshooting.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
My Time Machine drive is a 500GB drive connected to an Airport Extreme via USB.
I hate to have to tell you this, but backing-up that way is "iffy" and +*not supported by Apple.+* See [Using Time Machine with an Airport Extreme Air Disk|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Airport.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
You really should find a more reliable way to back up. See #2 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum) for your options.
I find this message confusing. Why must TM create a new backup?
As in the first link above, because they're damaged beyond Disk Utility's ability to repair them. Exactly what that is, we mere mortals don't know. It's only on network backups, and even folks using Time Capsules see this occasionally.

Why do I get this message every time I travel with my laptop and then return home: To improve reliability, Time Machine must create a new backup for you.

Why do I get this message every time I travel with my laptop and then return home: "To improve reliability, Time Machine must create a new backup for you."
I get this on my new MacBook Air, but never got it on my old MacBook Pro.
Thanks!

"....To Improve Reliability, Time Machine Must Create a New Backup for You"

I bought the new Apple 2 TB Time Capsule thinking it would be a great way to get a powerful wireless router and handle file backup for both me and my wife's iMacs. She is running an up-to-date version of Snow Leopard and I am on the most recent update of Mountain Lion. The Time Capsule was installed and running by the first of August and we had no problems until this monday (7 weeks later) when I got the message that "Time Machine completed a verification of your backups. To improve reliability Time Machinge must create a new backup" My wife's back up was still ok but I had to go though the 5-6 hour process of re-copying all my files(using an ethernet connection) to the device. All went smoothly for a few days until I got the same message again about creating a new backup. Also my wife cannot enter her time machine files even though the computer is still being backed up. We have a stable internet service and both computers recieve a strong signal from the router. Is it possible that the Time Capsule Drive is defective? Is there any sort of maintenance such as zpping the PRAM that would help? This is really frustrating as it looks like the timemachine backup is totally unreliable and not worth fooling with. Is there any way to use the storage capability of the time capsule without going through time machine?
Thanks,
Reid McCallister

hi
rest assured you are not alone. i have the same problem and i hate it with a passion. in fact, i am the victim of this message as of 20 minutes ago and doing a full backup as I am typing this. I am so overly ****** that I actually posted here and will be calling or emailing apple next because I cannot take this anymore. the problem lies in time machine and unfortunately, there is no fix for that. time machine is the best idea of apple with the worst implementation ever. you have no obligation to use time capsule to benefit from time machine as this would not be legal anyway. i will give you 2 temporary solutions and let you decide which one works best for you:
1) open time machine preferences and turn automatic backups off. create a new full backup from scratch and only backup manually whenever you remember, preferably every day. the automation process is the problem that lies within time machine. also make sure that your system does not go to standy or sleep whatever that may be called. Power nap, despite all claims, is not compatible with time machine. install CAFFEINE, an app that keeps your mac awake and prevents from going to sleep while back up is in progress. use it like this and pray it will all go fine for a long time. you may wish to duplicate the first full backup to save time in case this should happen again so you have a base to start on
2) install CCC (carbon copy cleaner) I have not used it myself yet, but probably will be installing it after finishing this post. it is claimed to be better, yet it is yet to be seen by me personally.
unless time machine can be trained without any addons to use a specific wifi only for backup, these issues will persist.

Creating a bootable backup for upgrade to Lion

I've read some articles and watched some videos on how to create a disk of my drive from the disk utility. Is that a good way to create a bootable backup of my Mac Mini? I also want to have all my applications transferred over to Lion, though I know how to do that in the installation of the OS. But I want a fresh install over Snow Leopard and reinstall my apps from that bootable disk, again is that possible? If this can work, how can I know for sure if the backup works?

Spinland wrote:
Then what CSound1 said: use CCC to clone your drive to another disk for safekeeping, then install Lion and enjoy. All of your apps will still be there after the upgrade.
Have you checked to make sure your apps are Lion compatible? This guide can help you find out:
http://fairerplatform.com/2011/07/are-your-apps-lion-compatible-how-to-check/
Hi Spinland
That is not what I said exactly ......
1 Clone the SL (internal) to the external.
2 Boot from the external and install Lion on it.
3 Run Lion from the clone until you know it works (and you can identify any incompatible apps).
4 Clone the Lion external back to the internal.
5 You're done.

Automatic Backups for PC (Vista & XP) using Time Capsule

Does anyone know if PCs (Vista & XP) can be configured for automatic backup on Time Capsule?
We have 4 Macs running Leopard and the auto backup is working fine there.
Additionally, we have a couple of PCs running Vista & XP and I would like them to auto backup also.
Thanks for your help!

No problem with the Windows part. First map a drive to the TC seems to be more stable then using the Airport utility. Then use the free NT backup utility that comes with XP, you will need to copy the utility and chm and the files ntmsapi.dll and vssapi.dll into a folder on the Vista machine but it will work fine. Also need to enable the Removable Storage management feature in the OS.
Another solution, consider Microsoft OneCare, it has a good backup feature.
Hope this helps

Time Machine completed a verification of your backups. To improve reliability, Time Machine must create a new backup for you.

I just wanted to collect all my messages since oct 16th. under one roof. I have spent too much time with this problem already, will NOT edit this the way I should. It REALLY bugs me that Apple doesn't acknowlege it - would make life easier knowing that they are working on it.
I have the same problem. It all started around Oct. 13th when my old 13'' MacBook was doing it's last backup just before I got my current 15'' Pro. It was running up-to-date SnowLeopard, and have 1TB TimeCapsule (1st generation).
Now I have had this same problem every two weeks running Lion in my new MBP.
This does not seems to be just Lion-related, or because of lack of space - my HD was 320MB, now 750MB (350MB used).
TM will erase the disk in this particular case, and you will loose all the data history!!!
You should make a backup with CCC or similar on a separate disk to be on safe side.
I think that there will be a fix for this problem, we are not the only ones complaning.
After more research I ended up with two options: either the TC HD is at the end of it's 4 year life OR Lion TM settings > options > lock documents 2 weeks after last edit is somehow behind this problem. I unchecked this setting and will see after two weeks...
Meanwhile, fingers crossed.
SAME BIG PROBLEMS HERE TOO. JUST GOT A NEW 2TB TC bacause thought that my 4y. old 1st gen is kaput - but the problem returned just after 5 days of usage. And the newest airport firmware update did not help the situation at all...
Disk Utility verified TC disk OK, new MBP running Lion disk ok as well.
Tried about everything with my old MB with SnowLeopard.
I mean I have tried really everything since the problem occurred mid-september - new MBP, new OSX (Lion this time), new TC THIS WEEK, started fresh from the very beginning but the problem still exists.
I have no other software in my mac but from Mac App Store + Nikon + Adobe.
A virus? Others have it too?
Studied all day today and tried many options including ethernet / wireless settings (FYI: found out also that in Airport Utility alt-key brings the missin options in setting up wireless- and radio modes - confusing since no mention of this in the manuals).
There is a firmware/OSX - problem and it bugs me that Apple doesn't acknowlege it - would make life easier knowing that they are working on it.
Too many people are having these problems, and also I lost a couple of days of work while solving this on my own.
Here we are solving this mess as well. My 1st gen TimeCapsule began to work odd two months ago, needed to do fresh backups every week or two. Finally got a new one this week. Seemed to work fine first, but today a complete stop with my network. Problems occured not immediately after the firmware 7.6 update though. Seems that my iWork backups are a bit of a mess too since Pages keeps showing an unwanted photo in a written article after deleteting it from there...
I have my new TC 2TB as a base station downstairs + express extending to upstairs study + express joining for AirTunes (+ the old TC to play with). Lion and Airport Utility up-to-date.
Got also new MBP two months ago.
First thought that Lion is the problem, then that old TC is the problem - seems like APPLE is the problem...
BTW - DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU NEED TO HIT ALT-KEY TO SEE ALL OPTIONS FOR WIRELESS MODE AND RADIO MODE??? AND THAT SOMETIMES IPHONE AIRPORT UTILITY SHOWS THOSE OPTIONS, SOMETIMES NOT... sort of hard to figure that out without a mention in the instructions...

Unfortunately, the message pretty much says it all.
What it does not tell you is that your Time Machine backups are corrupted and Time Machine cannot repair them, so it wants to delete your entire backup file and start with a new one.
I'm afraid that AppleCare will tell you the same thing, but it's worth checking with them to see if there are any new developments in this regard for this puzzling issue which affects a small percentage of users.
Please post back on your findings if you pickup some additional useful information when you speak to Apple.

Time machine: can i create a separate backup for an external hard drive?

I am already backing up my internal hard drive to External Hard Drive A
I would like to back up another external hard drive (External Hard Drive B) to another hard drive (Hard Drive C). Is this possible with Time Machine in Mac OS 10.7.5. If so, where might I find instructions?
Thank you!

Sounds like you (or somebody) encrypted the disk with FileVault2.
When you enabled FileVault2, you should have received a message similar to the following:
WARNING: You will need your login password or a recovery key to access your data. A recovery key is automatically generated as part of this setup. If you forget both your password and recovery key, the data will be lost.
(That's the wording when encrypting the boot volume in Security & Privacy preference. The wording when creating an encrypted non-boot disk with Erase in Disk Utility is slightly different, but also includes red-letter WARNING about data loss if you forget the password.)
If the disk is encrypted with FileVault, better hope you can remember the password. As the help says, "The disk encryption in Mac OS X uses the government-approved encryption standard, the Advanced Encryption Standard with 128-bit keys (AES-128)."

Automate Backup for Cisco ASR 1k

Looking to automate the backup process and send it to another location via FTP.

Hi JP,
Yes as long as it can ping the routers then you will be fine. You will need to make sure the SNMP/TFTP and account config is setup correctly as well. With regard to bandwidth usage I am not sur ebaout this but it will be pretty small, the largest hit will be the pulling of the config (nightly/weekly) but the conigs are normally <50K.
Hope this helps.

Create automatic backup?

Is it possible to set Acrobat Pro 9.0 to create an automatic backup of whatever document you are working on? I don't mean "save". For example, in MS Word, I have my preferences set so that a document named Backup Document Name is automatically created as I work on the document, so in case there is a computer or application crash while using the document, the Backup Document is automatically saved.
Does anything similar exist in Acrobat Pro?
Thanks.
Sheri

thank you for answer . You mean create two scheduled task with wbadmin or powershell ? Create Backup once ? With this is still full backup , or incremental ? And can I create automatic backup ?
Falcon
I try create automatic backup and I have 2 backup disk.After I change disk the windows backup detect new disk and create new backup . How detect which files must copy ? In the folder windowsimagebackup is list with files with hash or how ?

Rman cold backup for oracle rac

Hi experts;
I want to create a cold backup for an oracle 10g rac DB.
It has 2 nodes, it's not in archive log, this will be the next step.
But now, I want to backup before to proceed.
My doubts are:
I need to shutdown the both nodes?
If yes:
I need to startup nomount just in one node?
If there any document with this specifics steps?
Thanks for your help.
Al

Cold backups are done with the DB completely shut down.
For RAC the data files are used by all nodes in the cluster.
You need to shut down all instances in the RAC.
Then use your OS utilities or RMAN to do the backup.
