Getting TM to send a message after backup

does anybody know if there is a way to have TM send a massage when backup is finished? like per email? or?

there is definitely nothing built in that would do anything like this. you could probably cook up some sort of notification system but it would require some hacking and I don't know how to do it at the end of a backup. at the beginning might work.
you can try for example the following. edit the launch daemon /system/library/launchdaemons/com.apple.backupd-auto.plist and change the command it executes
/System/Library/CoreServices/backupd.bundle/Contents/Resources/backupd-helper
to
/System/Library/CoreServices/backupd.bundle/Contents/Resources/backupd-helper; echo "backup at `date`" |mail [email protected]
you have to have command line mail working for this to work. It goes without saying that you need to back up the existing launch daemon before tinkering with it.

  • Anyone getting this pop up error message after installing Lion?

    After installing Lion I now get random pop up error messages that say...There was a problem connecting to the server. URL's with the type "file" are not supported. I have to keep closing them. Any ideas what to do?

    Actually, In my case, turning off Time Machine didn't help. I had the same problem. We definitely traced it to Time Machine. The "Fix" was this: plugged in and designated different external HD as Backup volume. Then unplugged it and plugged in the original disc (after testing in in a different machine) and now the computer recognized it and error message stopped popping up. The Apple tech was as puzzled as I as to why this worked, but perhaps, forcing the machine to re-recognize it (or maybe even gettting it recognized by a different machine first) somehow worked some magic.

  • I cannot use  my iPhone to make calls or send text messages after upgrading to ios 7

    I just upgraded to ios7 and I can no longer  make calls or send text messages.  The screens seem to be locking.   Does anyone know what I can do to fix it?

    My wife is having the exact same issue after updating to the new iOS 8.1.1 and we've tried all the same steps even restoring the phone as a new phone. We've contacted our service provider and they've told us to go to apple to potentially "remove" her serial number from their servers to allow it to work properly on the service we have. We are desperate as purchasing a new phone right now is not an option and she desperately needs her phone for work and life.

  • I have an iphone 3gs and i cant get it to send picture messages to anyone without an iphone? i already checked to make sure my sms setting is on and it is.

    I just bought a used iphone 3gs, (very new to the smart phone thing), and i set the phone up as a straight talk phone. I can send picture messages to other iphones but not to anyone else? I already made sure that my sms setting is on and it is, so is my imessage , mms and group message. anyone with any advise would be greatly appreciated

    More than likely the problem is with the provider. You will need to check with them to find out what settings need to be on the phone to support MMS. You need to contact Straight Talk. SMS and MMS are carrier functions. The only settings on the phone are the ones you have mentioned, with the exception of APN settings, which are generally taken care of by the phone's carrier settings. I'm not aware of a carrier file for Straight Talk.

  • Cannot open any folders within thunderbird or send unsent messages after computer (ubuntu) closed suddenly whilst using programme

    I use ubuntu. The computer ran out of battery power and closed whilst I was using thunderbird. On restarting thunderbird later, I found that I could not open any folders or send any unsent messages. When I close the programme, I cannot restart it because it says thunderbird is already open, but if I use killall -9 thunderbird I am told there are no thunderbird processes running. I've checked my profile and there is no lock file or parentlock file. Someone suggest deleting the global messages database, but this hasn't helped at all.
    If I am slow responding to any questions, please be patient, tonight is my last night with a decentinternet connection - before returning to my rural African home, where we get download speeds of 15kb/s on a good day.

  • Unable to send text messages after ICS

    After ICS install I just found out that although I receive text messages replies or new messages are not sent.  It appears that they are but recipients do not get them.  Reboot, battery pull, cache wipe and soft reset have been tried.  Any other suggestions?

        I'm sorry to hear about the problems encountered with your phone, Corky54! I appreciate all the steps you already have taken to resolve this issue. At this point, the next best step is to complete the Master Reset. Be sure to backup all of your data prior to completing the reset.

  • BB Protect: Send a Message after Wipe Device

    Hi,
    My wife just lost her BlackBerry 9750 Curve... It had the BB Protect app. I could track his location for a couple of hours and send a display message for return call.... but not answer... so I wiped it.
    Now, I'm not sure if the device is off, or the wipe procedure has already delete the Protect App... I was trying for 3 more hours and it can be located by the bb protect web.
    Thanks in advance,
    Pedro
    PD. Sorry, but I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, if it is the case, please point me to the right.

    Yea if you wiped the device, you wiped the service books which enable the BIS account to the device.
    Bill is correct, at least it's wiped now. There's not anything else you can do with it.

  • Get size of the mailbox before/after backup

    Hi there
    i've been assigned to do a specific report related to exchange and its backup 
    so what we want is a report that would give us the global size of all our databases before and after the backup ( even the size of the logs before and after)
    (example : we have a database x , inside of it we need to go inside the data folder, and retrieve the size of the .edb
    then do the same thing with the logs, go inside the logs folder, and retrieve the logs size )
    i was wondering if anyone ever managed to pull a script that does similar things, given the fact that i ve never worked with powershell and my knowledge is kinda limited in that area

    Hi,
    To get the mailbox database size, you can use the following command.
    get-mailboxdatabase -status | fl name, databasesize
    To check the transaction log size of a specific mailbox database, you need to check the following path and see there is a lot of 1MB size TEXT file like E000000000A.
    <drive>\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Mailbox\Mailbox Database
    To get the total size of transaction log files, some scripts may help you. You can ask this question in the Script forum which is staffed by more experts specializing in this kind of problem. You might get a better answer there.

  • [5800] Importing messages after backup failed

    Before installing the new firmware on my 5800, I backupped everything by using the backup function in the filemanager. I also did a hard reset. I started importing all of the settings and files from my backup, and it looked like it all worked. But when I look to the inbox of my messages, it's empty. I'm trying to import only the messages, but it still doesn't work.
    Why isn't he importing my messages? And is it possible to get it all back, maybe by doing it another way.
