HT3275 What does sparsebundle already in use mean?

I have two Macbook pros in use on this time capsule.  I only get this message from one of the laptops.  Any suggestions?

It means that you need to power off the entire network....all devices....in any order that you wish.
Wait a minute, then start the modem first and let it run a full minute or two by itself
Start the main router next, which may be your Time Capsule and let it run a minute
Continue starting devices one at a time about a minute apart until everything is powered back up.
Check Time Machine again from both Macs

  • HT3275 he backup disk image"/Volumes/Data/Sue's MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" is already in use mean?

    Can anyone tell me what "The backup disk image"/Volumes/Data/Sue's MacBook Pro.sparsebundle is in use mean when it comes to using my Time Machine.   How do I solve this blip in the back-up process?

    The TM backup has not properly dismounted the drive on the last backup or has lost connection in some way.
    It is a common problem.. the most common in this discussion area.. look at the right hand "More Like This" column for multiple similar threads.
    Solution is simple.. some sort of restart is needed of the TC.. you can do this via the airport utility or just pull the power, count to 10 and power it on again.
    See C12 for more details.

    I think the problem was using a WPA2 network rather than a WPA network. When I tried connecting to a WPA network, everything went fine.

    It's an error message returned by the burner. You can see the full list of these error messages here
    <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_Code_Qualifier>
    It's not specific enough to pinpoint what caused it—it could be anything from a bad optical medium (CD-R) to a dusty or dying laser diode. You have to isolate the problem—use a different CD-R brand, try a different speed, use a different burn engine (eg, Burn), etc. If it occurs once or twice, randomly, it's more likely to be a bad disc. If it occurs consistently, and at the same stage of the burn process, it's more likely to be a drive or software issue.

    what does the flashing yellow light mean on my airport express?

    Open AirPort Utility, the application that you used to configure the AirPort Express and click Manual Setup.
    Click directly on the word "Status" (2nd line) and a window will open to tell you why the Express is complaining. What is the message?
    It might be a notification that an update is available for your Express.

    What does "Only DRM free/unprotected" mean when trying to transfer pictures and videos to my laptop?

    Only Digital Rights Management music and video which you do not own rights to copy or use cannot be placed on your device.
    songs you have paid for or own outright will not have those restrictions.
    hope that helped?
    Good Luck

  • What does error -50303 and -50016 mean ?

    Does anyone know what does error -50016 and -50303 mean ? Can you tell me how to solve it ? I am using scxi 1161 for my application and i am getting these error codes.

    Hi Anku
    You can find explanations to error codes in labVIEW by going to the Help menu and selecting Explain Error and then inputing the error codey you get. You can also right-click in the error node in you program that presents this error and choose "Explain error". The two error codes you have posted have the following explanations:
    -50016:
    "NI Platform Services:  The specified window type is not valid or is inappropriate in the context of the current device configuration. The operation could not be completed as specified."
     -50303:  
    "NI Platform Services:  The specified device could not be initialized. The operation could not be completed as specified"
    Does both of these error occur in the same attempt to run or at different attemps to run the code? In which order are you getting these errors if they appear at the same time? The second error code indicates that you either don't have a connection to your instrument, that it's not configured correctly (such as the first error indicates) or that the instrument is not functioning as it should. The first error is a configuration error and could also be a result of the second error (i.e. no connection or broken instrument). So as both error codes you are getting could be a result of the other it is important to note which occurs first.

  • What does Transparent Networking Substrate (TNS) mean ?

    Hello,
    what does Transparent Networking Substrate (TNS) mean?
    I searched several Oracle documentations but couldn't find a plain explanation!
    Thanks
    Axel

    In addition to the glossary definition...
    For what most people care about, TNS is a layer that transparently allows you to use a variety of different methods to resolve database aliases. You can configure a tnsnames.ora file, you can set up Oracle Names, an LDAP directory, or you can use host names.

  • TS1550 timemachine won't backup because sparsebundle already in use

    timemachine stopped backing up because sparsebundle already in use how do i correct this?

    I was having this same problem. I had turned on an old Macbook briefly and then turned it off. It must have been doing a backup at the time, because my newer Macbook Air could no longer do a backup because the sparsebundle was in use.
    I followed crandyhill's suggestion above, and that solved everything. I had to open Airport Utility 5.6, click on manual setup, click on the disks tab, click on disconnect all users.
    That solved the problem, and now my Air is doing regular backups again.

  • HT201250 what does reported "error code 6584" mean ?

    What does reported "error code 6584" mean ? when trying to get into my time machine back up.

    First, I suggest you make another full backup to a locally-attached external hard drive. You should do that anyway. One backup isn't enough to be safe, and backing up over a network is less reliable than backing up locally. Then try each of the following steps that you haven't already taken.
    1. Restart the backup device. You can do that by disconnecting and reconnecting the power cord.
    2. Open the Time Machine pane in System Preferences and check that the device is selected as a destination. If it isn't, select it and try again.
    3. Hold down the option key and select Verify Backups from the TM menu in the menu bar (not the Dock icon.) This operation may take a long time. If the menu-bar icon (a clock that runs backwards) isn't showing, check Show Time Machine in menu bar in the preferences.
    4. Erase the backup device. With a Time Capsule, you do that from within the AirPort Utility application; see its built-in help for details. All backups on the device will be lost, so don't do this until you've backed up to another device. After erasing, select the device again as a backup destination in the TM preference pane. The first backup should be made over a wired connection, if possible.

  • What does the message "No Editor " mean ?

    What does the message "No Editor" mean?

    Okay - the message means that the system knows of no editor (program) to use to view these files.
    Since I gather you recently upgrade to Mavericks from Snow Leopare (you might want to update your profile), I am guessing these movies are in the file format for a program that no longer runs on Mavericks (or is not installed).
    It is possible that you can change the "kind" ie. the file format extension, to one that the system recognizes, and have it open these files with another program.  You will have to experiment to see what works.
