Error opening backup....

My TC was working just fine - and actually was working very well. All of a sudden, the backup image could not be found. After playing with it for a while, I seemed to get it to find the backup image, however, after 20 hours of continuous backing up (and actually doing nothing according to both the "meter" and the file size information) - I figured I was hosed. So I dumped that image (read deleted) and started over. The "new" image is growing in size - but after 22 hours, it is hardly an eighth of the size of my data and is moving at a snails pace. I'm concerned that this will fail as well.
Anyone having related issues and if so, have you found a fix?

you need to make sure that the TC name has no ' in it and then rerun the spotlight search
this can be done by going to settting and taking your hardrive out of the spotlight settings and putting in back in.
Spotlight takes a couple of hours to remap your drive and then TC should work

You’re running an outdated copy of Safari on your Desktop. That won’t work.
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Applications
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A to open the Applications folder. Check that the Safari application is in that folder. If it is, use it, and delete the copy on your Desktop. Never move or copy built-in applications.
If you've deleted Safari from the Applications folder, back up all data, then reinstall OS X. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.

You must copy the backup pieces from SysA to SysB -- to the expected location. This would be the same directory path as on SysA.
See the documentation on the DUPLICATE DATABASE command :
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14194/rcmsynta028.htm#RCMRF126
If the target and duplicate databases reside on different hosts, then you must do one of the following tasks for duplication to be successful:
Move backups and disk copies from the target host to the duplicate host to the same location as the target host so that the path names are identical
Move backups and disk copies from the target host to the duplicate host to a new location (so that the path names are different), and then CATALOG them.
Make sure that all backups and copies (disk or sbt) on the target host are remotely accessible from the duplicate host. Make sure that the archived redo logs are available in the expected location in the new host.

When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." Is there any way to correct this problem?

When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website using Safari, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." When I save the same PDF file using FireFox it opens up immediately. Is there any way to correct this problem with Safari?

With OSX10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02 when I try to open a PDF downloaded from the web I get 'There was an error opening this document. This file is damaged and could not be repaired. Preview will not open either. Older PDFs OK.

I am running OS X 10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02. In the last few days I have been unable to open PDF's downloaded from the web. Reader gives the error message 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired'. Removing Reader and trying to use Preview to open these files give the error 'Preview cannot open this file. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise' (or something like that). Downloading the same files with Reader removed from my Mac Preview opens the files OK.
I was recently prompted to update Adobe software but did not note exactly what the update was nor when it was done.
Reader and Preview will both open PDFs I downloaded a week ago. Reader will also open files downloaded on another Mac running OS X 10.0.0 and copied to my Mac. Any ideas?

"There was an error opening the database for the library "~/Pictures/Apert"

Hey everyone,
There's already another discussion thread about this at the link below, but the problem was never actually resolved. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2343014&tstart=0&messageID=116 67261#11667261
So I stumbled across this problem where Aperture 3 will display the following error when opening the image library.
There was an error opening the database for the library “~[path]/Aperture Library.aplibrary”.
One user suggested navigating to the actual library, and ⌘⌥-clicking the library to open it with the Aperture Library First Aid dialog. This however, did not work for me. I still received the error messages upon ⌘⌥-clicking the library.
Here's a little hack I discovered for those of you still struggling. It doesn't fix the problem (leaves quite a large dent remaining actually), but hopefully someone can cultivate what little I discovered.
⌥-click Aperture (not the library)
You should get to the library selection dialog box. Create a new library (bottom right corner) and remember the location of the new library. Put a few random pictures in the new one.
Close Aperture
⌃-click both the old and new libraries and "Show Package Contents."
Open the folder "Database" in both libraries.
Cross check the folders to see if the old library is missing files that are in the new library. If your old library is missing some files (mine was), drag the missing files from the new library to the old one.
Close both folders.
⌘⌥-click the old library.
NOW, I got the Aperture Library First Aid dialog.
Rebuild the library (3rd option)
Wait a while.
Aperture should open up with a folder named "Recovered Folder." Within this folder will be a SINGLE project named "Recovered Project" with ALL the images from your old library. There may be a few albums there too, but mine were all empty so it didn't matter in my case. To my knowledge, I lost all the adjustments I performed too.
This is as far as I got. I have much of my library backed up, so I only needed to copy the most recent photos into the backup. I am NOT reorganizing and re-editing pictures in this one!
As Aperture is a photo-organizing and photo-editing software, I understand that this by no means fixes the problem, since you lose all organization and editing. But it enables one to at least view the images lost. Hopefully a more knowledgable hacker else can figure out how to fix this completely. Unfortunately, I simply don't have the time to continue messing with this.
Good luck to anyone else having issues! I understand the frustration you must be facing, its freaky having years worth of images simply disappear! After this incident, I'm definitely going to configure Time Machine to perform more frequent backups, since my latest backup was already a couple weeks old.

Hey All,
To my horror I have a similar problem and your solution didn't seem to help. To be specific, I get the error:
"There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Pictures/Aperture Library_2.aplibrary" Everytime I try to run Aperture. This happened because my Apple computer shut off completely (due to bad battery) while importing photos from a memory card.
I've tried "option + command" while clicking the aperture application and that gave me the same error message without any other option except to quit the program. I tried "option + command" and clicked the library package but that didn't work either. I tried creating a new aperture library, opening it which I did successfully, and then switching to my main one but that didn't work.
Does anyone know away to get it to work again and have the edits still there?
I'm a professional photographer and have thousands of photos or so in the library so this is distressing. The master files for the photos are located on an external hard drive, but I'm not sure how to access them in aperture. Are all the edits on the photographs are in the external hard drive or the aperture library. Is there any other way to resolve this issue without losing the edits?
Does apple have a support number I can call? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

How to deal with "There was an error opening this document, the file is damaged and could not be"

Hello, everyone:
I open one pdf document with Adobe Reader 9.3, but it appeared that "There was an error opening this document, the file is damaged and could not be repaired".. and I found that another several pdf document in the same folder that I have not opened for a long time is also "damaged and could not be repaired".
But in the same folder, other documents of different types are ok, does that mean there is something wrong with my hard drive?
Has anyone else run into this issue or have any suggestions?
Thank you very much

It could be that the directory is damaged. It could be that at one time you had a virus that did damage, it is hard to say. Do you have a good backup?

Error creating backup file

Hi,
I'm running adobe digital editions on a Mac OS X 10.6.3 and I keep getting this error message whenever I open adobe digital editions.
Error creating backup file: /Users/yongrufui/Documents/Digital Editions/backup_manifest.xml
Error detail: Error #2038
This message also appears when I go to Library view. And I can't load my new ebook either.
Please help!

I wish I had an answer, but I have the same problem. My error is: Error Creating Backup File c:windows\personal\MyDigital Editions\Backup_Manifest.xml
Error Detail: Error #2038
I've reported this to Adobe and someone is trying to resolve, but its been over 4 days now. All of the suggestions provided so far haven't fix it.
I get this error upon Launching ADE. Always comes up on Launch, but I can move on by clicking OK. However, all that does is remove the error message. Still cannot download books from library.

ERROR: invalid backup file version. Exception: Error while unzipping invalid wcs 7.x export file

Hi,
I'm having a serious issue with your brend new Cisco Prime Network Control System (NCS) and i would appreciate if someone could give me good answers.
After a background backup task failure, the database was entirelly corrupted and the oracle server no longuer wanted to start. And because of that the NCS web server is unusable, since no one can log in.
We tryed to restore to last known backup obtained after a former suucessful backup. But we get this error:
"ERROR: invalid backup file version. Exception: Error while unzipping invalid wcs 7.x export file"
All the lost data was previously migrated from the former WCS 7.x server. Before this issue everything was working fine.
So we think that the appliance is seeing the backup file from NCS as a WCS backup.
We need to find rapidly a solution. Here is our configuration:
We formerly had WCS 7.0.172.0 hosted on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP2 with the above caracteristics:
Intel(R)Xeon(R) CPU 5120 @ 1.86Ghz 1.87Ghz 16GB of RAM.
We now have NCS Version 1.1.1.24 running under Cisco Application Deployment Engine
OS Release: 2.0
ADE-OS Build Version: 2.0.1.038
ADE-OS System Architecture: x86_64

I was getting this error too. TL;DR: When you transfer the wcs.zip file to your FTP server, make sure you are using BINARY mode... which is often NOT the default FTP mode.
Long Version:
TO GET THIS ERROR, what I had done was use the Windows CLI FTP command to transfer my "wcs.zip" to the NCS FTP server.
-----BEGIN WRONG STEPS-----
C:\ftp
ftp> open x.x.x.x
Connected to x.x.x.x.
220 Service ready for new user
User (x.x.x.x:(none)): ftp-user
331 User name okay, need password for ftp-user
Password:
230 User logged in, proceed
ftp> put wcs.zip
200 Command PORT okay
150 File status okay; about to open data connection
226 Closing data connection
ftp: 526768949 bytes sent blah blah etc
-----END WRONG STEPS-----
I would then run "ncs stop" and "ncs migrate" and get the "ERROR: invalid backup file version. Exception: Error while unzipping invalid wcs 7.x export file".
I remembered something from my misspent youth: Windows, for no good reason, likes to transfer files in ASCII mode. UNIX (which LINUX comes from) prefers BINARY, and the two do not like to negotiate.
TO FIX THIS, I had to just FTP in Binary mode.
-----BEGIN RIGHT STEPS-----
C:\ftp
ftp> open x.x.x.x
Connected to x.x.x.x.
220 Service ready for new user
User (x.x.x.x:(none)): ftp-user
331 User name okay, need password for ftp-user

230 User logged in, proceed

200 Command TYPE okay
ftp> put wcs.zip
200 Command PORT okay
150 File status okay; about to open data connection
226 Closing data connection
ftp: 526768949 bytes sent blah blah etc
-----END RIGHT STEPS-----
NOW when I enter "ncs stop" (actually... had to restart them... then stop them... x.x) and then the proper "ncs migrate" commands, I get a happy output and don't have to go home late troubleshooting this.

I hope this helps anyone banging their head against the WCS->PI1.3 install wall.
(Note, WCS needs to be migrated to NCS 1.1.1.24 (NOT NCS 1.1.3!!!!!) before you can migrate to Prime Infrastructure 1.2 or 1.3, because for no readily apparent reason the "ncs migrate" command was removed from PI 1.2 and up. Also note, there is no "Prime Infrastructure 1.1;" they just renamed NCS to Prime Infrastructure after NCS 1.1 because. Yes, the sentence ends there. Great products, all 3, just... agonizing to migrate.)

Can someone please tell why I am having errors ?
Thanks. Dan.

You cannot take a backup of a database that is OPEN if it is in NOARCHIVELOG mode. You need to switch the database to ARCHIVELOG mode (and have it generate ArchiveLogs which you *must* backup with the database) !
These are the instructions to backup a database that is in NOARCHIVELOG mode :
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmquick.htm#sthref113
Essentially, you need to SHUTDOWN and then MOUNT (but not OPEN) the database before you can take a backup. That means the database is NOT available to users for the duration of the backup. Also, you can only do a RESTORE of the database to that time of the backup and not RECOVER it to any intermediate time between two backups (because you wouldn't have the ArchiveLogs required for the point in time recovery).

Errors during backup of MSSQL 2005 using DB13

Hi Kan,
So your suggestion is that I should run a backup with the format media option selected? I believe I have tried that, but I will nevertheless give it another go.
Will keep this thread open in the mean time.
