How do I fix this error message - "sparse bundle is already in use"

Lately, I have been getting the following message that says:
The backup disk image “/Volumes/Kaminski Family Time Capsul/Keith (2).sparsebundle” is already in use.
How might I fix this?  Thank you for your time.

Unplug the power cord from the back of the Time Capsule
Count to ten
Plug the power cord back into the back of the Time Capsule
This will fix this issue 98% of the time. If you are in the unlucky 2%, more help is here:
The Backup disk image ... sparsebundle ... is already in use.

    "This message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered.
    The SMTP server "smtp.mac.com" doesn't support TLS (SSL) on port 25. Please check your account settings and try again."
    ThANK YOU!!!

    Mail Help has some articles devoted to sending problems, e.g. “I can't send email” or “I can't send email because the connection to the server on port 25 timed out”. You may want to take a look at them in case there is something there that applies to you.
    Something that usually works if you’re trying to use an outgoing (SMTP) server different from the one provided by your ISP (and in the case of .Mac in particular) is changing the outgoing server port to 587 instead of 25 in Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Server Settings.

    We have a new computer and I cannot get my garmin running watch to sync with mozilla. The error message that I keep getting is"The address wasn't understood

    You might need to install other software to open this address."
    Help please

    This is for a special URL that starts with
    connectagent://
    instead of with
    http://
    is that right?
    Two thoughts:
    (1) Could you try changing a setting for your Garmin plugin. Here's what I mean:
    Open the Add-ons page using either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Plugins.
    Find your Garmin plugin change "Ask to Activate" to "Always Activate".
    Your system information seems to list two different versions of a similarly named plugin. I'm not sure whether that is causing a problem.
    (2) Does Garmin's documentation specify any extra steps to set up Firefox, other than installing its add-ons?

  • How do I fix this error message. Itunes was unable to load provider data from sync services. Reconnect and try again later.s

    Why do I keep getting this error msg everytime my phone tries to sync to my pc,after I click ok it syncs as it should. If I don't click ok nothing happens.
    This is driving me mad, apple support couldn't fix the problem after resetting sync history, totally un installing itunes.re-downloading itunes and installing again, same thing happens!. I am the administrator.
    Also my Toshiba laptop randomly freezes, only when my phone is plugged directly into the USB port, I then have to do a hard reset to get it working again.
    Any ideas,   
    Please HELP!!!!!!

    I fixed this annoying problem once and for all. Copied all files & everything else onto an external hard drive, opened a new administrator account, deleted the problem administrator user account.Copied everything across into the new account.
    Re installed itunes in the newly created administration account. Problem solved!!!!
    After copying and pasting files, renaming files and reading endless pages in forums and nothing worked but this!!!!!!!
    Unfortunatelety I had already lost all my contacts,text msg and photos before, because I thought my phone was syncing to iTunes but wasn't because of this "sync services error" I've been getting for months.

  • How do I fix this error message:iTunes could not connect to this iPhone because an unknown error occured (0xE8000082)

    I keep getting this message and don't know what to do to fix it.  I've checked and I have both the latest operating system and iTunes.  I also have the latest O/S for the iPhone 4S,
    Has anyone else seen this message and figured out how to fix it?
    Mike

    This could be caused by a USB connection issue. Make sure the iPhone is directly connected to the Mac using the USB cable it came with. Also, try disconnecting all other USB devices.
    If you haven't already try resetting the iPhone by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see an Apple logo as described here:http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743

    Reboot the TC.. Sometimes you need to reboot the whole network.
    This is what comes of Lion and then made worse in Mountain Lion of Apple not spending enough time to fix the bugs.
    Read C12 in pondini.

    C17 can be related I think.

    how to fix this error message The backup disk image “/Volumes/AirPort Disk/FARES DEL VALLE’s iMac.sparsebundle” could not be accessed (error -1).

    The troubleshooting C17 is the specific article.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    This is generally a Lion error.. and you will need 5.6 utility to get access to the disk area.
    So download the real utility. Run it instead of v6 toy version.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Go to the manual setup, disk page and click on disconnect all users.. that will unmount all users connected to the disk and allow it to start working. But there are a number of other issues that are possible cause. Pondini lists some of them.

    how do I fix an error message of "failed to open a session on this devices" for my HP photosmart 6510 scanner?

    Hello Kwastfamily,
    It sounds like you are unable to print from your computer to your printer. I would run through the troubleshooting steps in this article:
    Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • When I update my nano ipod I get an error message "User ipod cannot be updated.  The disk couldnot be read from or written to."   How can I overcome this error message.

    In the iTunes window, when I update my nano ipod, I get an error message "User ipod cannot be updated.  The disk could not be read from or written to."   How can I overcome this error message.

    Hello there dilip77707,
    It sounds like you are getting this error message that your iPod cannot be read from or written to when you are trying to update your iPod Nano. I recommend the troubleshooting from the following article to help you get that resolved. Its pretty straight forward, just start at the top and work your way down as needed:
     'Disk cannot be read from or written to' when syncing iPod or 'Firmware update failure' error when updating or restoring iPod
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,

  • How can I solve this error message? Some of your photos, including the photo "IMG_0374.jpg", were not copied to the iPad "(my name's) iPad" because they cannot be displayed on your iPad.

    how can I solve this error message? "Some of your photos, including the photo “IMG_0374.jpg”, were not copied to the iPad “(my name’s) iPad” because they cannot be displayed on your iPad."
    There were 273 photos in the event syncing from my Mac, but only the last 103 made it to the ipad. Most of the photos were taken by an iphone. I would appreciate any thoughts or insights - thanks.

    Adrian-
    That error message suggests the photo is somehow corrupt.
    Do you have the Apple Camera Connection Kit?  You can set up a USB thumb drive with MS-DOS FAT-32 format and copy your photos to it into a folder named DCIM.  Assuming they have an 8 character plus suffix name, the iPad will recognize them and give you the option of transferring them via the Kit's USB adapter.
    Once they are transferred, you can find out if there is a problem with any.

  • How do I resolve this error message? The iPhoto library is on a locked volume.  Reopen iPhoto when you have read/write access, or reopen iPhoto with the Option key held down to choose another library.

    Hi j,
    I don't know if this will work, but I'd try logging in to an admin account, going to your main library (not user library), opening it, opening Application Support, selecting iPhoto, hold down the command key and press i, click on the lock in the lower left, entering the password and making sure you have Read & Write privileges for System and Admin.
