HT201250 Is their a way to only backup my photos on my Backup Plus Drive for MAC?

Can anyone tell me if and how to only backup my photos on my "Backup Plus Drive for Mac" by Seagate, through Time Machine?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're all users here.
In my opinion, Time Machine is a general program to back up 'everything', on an hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly basis, not really intended to back up only specific files or folders. In fact, Time Machine preferences are designed to help you EXCLUDE certain files and folders, rather than specify which ones to INCLUDE.
There are many alternatives. These are two I've used successfully:
Though not specifically designed for backup, iPhoto Library Manager from Fat Cat Software can duplicate, move, and also rebuild your iPhoto library file. It is available for US$29.95 from fatcatsoftware.com
For backup, I use an older free version of a program called Carbon Copy Cloner from Bombich Software that will permit you to back up files, folders, and and even create a bootable 'clone' of an entire hard drive. The current program release is no longer free, and is available for US$39.95 directly from Bombich Software Store. http://www.bombich.com/

    Because it says it's incompatible when it can't be, I got hope. I get error messages all the time with my iPod and iPhone that it cannot sync and that 'this device is not capapble of connecting to iTunes' stuff. I literally forget that happened, plug it in again and it works, I later realize that iTunes made a mistake, they do that.

    There is a way to find and recover individual photos from a Time Machine backup. 
    1 - dowload and launch  Find Any File.
    2 - select the Time Machine hard drive in FAF's Find Items menu.
    3 - enter the full file name of the photo you want to recover into FAF and use the Find button.
    NOTE: it will take a while for FAF to retrieve and display the results of the search due to the nature of how TM makes its backups. 30 seconds or so is normal.
    4 - select the file in the Masters folder and use the Space bar to verify it's the one you want with Quickview.
    5 - drag the file from the FAF window to your Desktop.
    6 - repeat for each photo you need to restore.

  • Is their another way like to use my time capsule as an external drive not using time machine?thanks

    is their another way like to use my time capsule as an external drive not using time machine?thanks

    You do not have to use Time Machine.. but the TC is hardly suitable for a NAS.. it has no means to back itself up and is relatively slow. Still that is up to you..
    CCC or Superduper are good backup softwares .. and there are a number of others.

  • Best way to format my 16GB flash drive for Mac and PC transferring large power point files?

    best way to format my 16GB flash drive for Mac and PC transferring large power point files?

    format flash drive in Exfat for transferring files between Mac and Pc.
    FORMAT TYPES
    FAT32 (File Allocation Table)
    Read/Write FAT32 from both native Windows and native Mac OS X.
    Maximum file size: 4GB.
    Maximum volume size: 2TB
    You can use this format if you share the drive between Mac OS X and Windows computers and have no files larger than 4GB.
    NTFS (Windows NT File System)
    Read/Write NTFS from native Windows.
    Read only NTFS from native Mac OS X
    To Read/Write/Format NTFS from Mac OS X, here are some alternatives:
    For Mac OS X 10.4 or later (32 or 64-bit), install Paragon (approx $20) (Best Choice for Lion)
    Native NTFS support can be enabled in Snow Leopard and Lion, but is not advisable, due to instability.
    AirPort Extreme (802.11n) and Time Capsule do not support NTFS
    Maximum file size: 16 TB
    Maximum volume size: 256TB
    You can use this format if you routinely share a drive with multiple Windows systems.
    HFS+ ((((MAC FORMAT)))) (Hierarchical File System, a.k.a. Mac OS Extended (Journaled) Don't use case-sensitive)
    Read/Write HFS+ from native Mac OS X
    Required for Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! backups of Mac internal hard drive.
    To Read HFS+ (but not Write) from Windows, Install HFSExplorer
    Maximum file size: 8EiB
    Maximum volume size: 8EiB
    You can use this format if you only use the drive with Mac OS X, or use it for backups of your Mac OS X internal drive, or if you only share it with one Windows PC (with MacDrive installed on the PC)
    EXFAT (FAT64)
    Supported in Mac OS X only in 10.6.5 or later.
    Not all Windows versions support exFAT. 
    exFAT (Extended File Allocation Table)
    AirPort Extreme (802.11n) and Time Capsule do not support exFAT
    Maximum file size: 16 EiB
    Maximum volume size: 64 ZiB
    You can use this format if it is supported by all computers with which you intend to share the drive.  See "disadvantages" for details.

  • I have a FreeAgent Goflex drive (for Mac) after a while the icon disappears from the desktop and can only be restored by reconnecting

    I have a FreeAgent GoFlex backup drive (for Mac) after a while the icon disappears from the desktop and can only be restored by reconnecting the firewire. This also happens when I use the USB connection as well. Thanks

    Did you use any of the "sleep" drivers supplied? I have found it best to just totally reformat/erase the drives and let the OS handle them.

  • Is there a way to only sync my photos?

    Hi.
    I just got a new iPhone 5c, which was an upgrade from my 4s. I backed up my 4s to my computer, instead of iCloud. I'm about to plus my 5c into the computer and I was wondering if there is a way to choose what I was to restore to my phone? For an example, when I plug my phone in, it will ask me if I want to restore my backup to this phone. I don't want messages to load back onto it, I just want the pictures, and I already uploaded all the apps myself. Is there a way to only do pictures? When it gets to the menu if I want to reload this phone or start fresh what would I click on? Thanks.

    No.
    Transferring a backup is all or none.
    You can import the photos/videos from the 4S camera roll with your computer as with any other digital camera which you should have already been doing.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083
    You can transfer select photos/videos from your computer to the new iPhone via the iTunes sync process - selected under the Photos tab for your new iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.

  • Unable to write to Seagate Backup Plus drive on Mac

    I just installed a brand new Seagate Backup Plus drive on my laptop with the goal of being able to use it on Macs and PCs.Seagate's web site says this:
    Using the drive under MacOS and Windows
    If you want to use the drive under Windows and MacOS, simply leave the drive in the NTFS format that it has when shipped from the factory (say No to "Do you want to use this drive with Time Machine?", if prompted). Install the included software which has a special driver that will allow the NTFS partition to be read and written under MacOS:
    Plug in the drive.
    Open the Seagate Backup Plus or FreeAgent GoFlex icon that appears on the desktop.
    Double-click the Seagate Dashboard Installer.dmg (Backup Plus) or Mac Installer.dmg (GoFlex) file on the drive and follow the prompts.
    If the driver is not installed, then the drive will be read-only under MacOS.
    The installation process seemed seamless, but I was never prompted to download an extra driver and it would appear that the driver either didn't install or doesn't work as advertised.
    I've found a user forum via Seagate addressing the inability to write to a GoFlex drive on a Mac:
    http://forums.seagate.com/stx/board/crawl_message?board.id=UPHD_and_PU&message.i d=3360
    One solution was to download a different driver (http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24481/ntfs-3g), however when I tried this I got an error from NTFS-3G that said "NTFS-3G could not mount the Seagate Backup Plus Drive because the following problem occurred: /Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/Support/fusefs.kext failed to load - (libkern/kext) link error; check the system/kernel logs for errors or try kextutil(8). the MacFUSE file system is not available (71)"
    I opened up the user guide, which instructed me to download MacFUSE, but the driver still wouldn't mount.
    In the end, I simply re-formatted the external HD with ExFAT in order to be able to read AND write. Has anyone else had a similar problem, or found a different answer?

    I thought that those particular Seagate drives shipped with the Paragon NTFS for Mac utility? If not, it's a $20 investment that you need to make.
    Download and install and then format the drive as NTFS on your PC. Your Mac should then be able to both read and write files to the drive.

  • Backup fail on Time Machine and My Passport for Mac on Yosemite

    Cannot seem to get Time Machine to do a full backup of my NEW My Passport for Mac.
    I've:
    - Updated firmware on WD external drive (and formatted correctly for Apple)
    - Updated to latest IOS 10.10.3 (Yosemite)
    - Verified and repaired Mac HD via iOS Disk Utility and the WD Drive Utility (no issues found on either)
    Error message continues to be "Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to My Passport for Mac. An error occurred while copying files. The problem may be temporary. If the problem persists, use Disk Utility to repair your backup disk."
    I'm backing up about 250 GB and have done this numerous times on my Passport for Mac. Everything SEEMS to be fine during backup, until after about 2-3 hours, into a 4-hour backup, the error message appears without any error codes.
    Does anyone have any input?  I don't think it is on the WD side.  Anyone know if there an issue with Time Machine and this external drive?  Help!
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Hi Linc,

  • How do I backup my photos on my curve 9330 to my Mac computer

    How do I backup my photos that are on my Blkberry Curve 9330 to my Mac computer. I am getting a new iphone soon and they told me at Verizon they can transfer my contacts but not my photos. So how do I get the photos that are on my phone onto my desktop of my Mac computer. I have both photos on a memory card and photos on my phone.
    Thank you for your help

  • Format external hard drive for backup drive for Mac Pro

    How do you format an external portable hard drive to work as a backup drive for the Mac Pro?

    If you plan to use Time Machine then Time Machine will take care of that for you once you choose the drive as your backup destination. If you want to do it yourself then you need to attach the drive; once it is mounted, open Disk Utility and select your drive from the left hand side bar. Once highlighted go to the main window and click on the subheading "Erase". The format needs to be "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". Click Erase and wait for the operation to complete. Now that you have a freshly prepared volume it can be used for Time Machine back up. Time Machine will recognize the disk and ask you if you would like to use this volume at which point you should follow the prompts to begin your back up.

  • Is there any way that I can delete photos from my iPhone by using my Mac?

    Is there any way that I can delete photos from my iPhone 4s by using iPhoto on my iMac (Mid 2011) using OS X Yosemite v10.10.2?  It seems it would be much more convenient to use my iMac to delete the photos from my iPhone or iPad, but I can't figure out how to do it.  Thanks for your consideration and help!

  • After updating Firefox 6, I seem to not be able to switch to different tabs. When I'm in the tab, it cannot be close, only in the menu. I like Firefox 5 for mac way more.

    Hi,
    having problem with This Firefox 6. When I updated the firefox from 5 to 6. It has not worked good on my computer. When I open a tab, I cannot close easy only when I go to File menu and chose close tab and I'm unable to switch from tab to tab.
    Also I use foxyproxy and before it was so easy to use, before you could see when you are using another proxy. In the past the little blue fox was in the browers area now I can barely find it.

  • Is there a way to retrieve camera roll photos after failed backup

    I backed up my iphone 4 to itunes (not icloud) yesterday, and today i went to the apple store to see if they could fix a broken lock button. They issued me a new phone, and assured me that i woult be able to retrieve my camera roll photos after restoring my phone from backup. Everything restored to my phone EXCEPT the photos. Some of them are very important to me and i would like to know if there is a way to retreive all of the photos through my computer, phone or itunes. PLEASE help me.

    The Camera Roll photos should have restored, as they are part of the backup, unless you had a corrupted backup. Connect the phone, right click on it in iTunes, and choose Restore from Backup. If you are given a choice of backups choose one from before you replaced the phone.
    However, the Camera Roll is not intended as a permanent store for photos; they should be transferred to a photo app on your computer or Photo Stream frequently, to avoid the situation you are now facing.
