HT3275 Why can't I enter time machine?
Why can't I enter time machine?
There are lots of possible reasons.. without more info we cannot help.
What OS is on the Mac?
Is this a new setup and has never worked? Or an old setup that has stopped working?
Is mavericks involved at all? Did you clean install or upgrade install it?
What is the target device for Time Machine?
You might like to read some yourself..

Why can't i find Time Machine Back Up Device in Hard Drive
Why can't i find Time Machine Device in Hard Drive when i have plugged it already. White light just keeps on blinking.
Understanding and resolving a blinking status light
Here are the reasons that the status light may blink:
Your Time Capsule has detected that the internal hard drive has reported a SMART error
The base station has not yet been configured
The base station has been reset.
A new firmware update is available for the base station.
No IP address is available for the base station.
A Wi-Fi base station in Extended Mode is out-of-network Wi-Fi range of a primary Wi-Fi base station.
The WAN Ethernet cable is unplugged from the Wi-Fi base station.
The Wi-Fi base station lacks a path to the Internet (or local router).
Internet access may be temporarily unavailable from your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
A persistent, blinking, amber status light indicates that your base station may require your attention.
How to resolve a blinking amber status light alert
Launch AirPort Utility to determine why your base station status light is blinking amber.
AirPort Utility opens automatically if your Wi-Fi base station requires your attention. You may also choose to launch AirPort Utility at any time.
In the AirPort Utility window, locate your Wi-Fi base station and double-click on it to open the Summary window. Note: If you have more than one Wi-Fi base station, double-click on the icon for the Wi-Fi base station that has the amber circle next to it.
When the Summary window appears, double-click the amber circle to the right of Wi-Fi base station Status to open the Status window.
The Status window lists any conditions that require your attention. Respond to each item until there are no more items listed.
Eliminating the blinking, amber status light may require making changes to a specific setting, or putting a checkmark in the "Ignore" checkbox beside any option you don't wish to change. A checkmark simply tells the AirPort that you are aware of the issue and you have chosen to ignore it. For example, you may wish to leave your AirPort open without a password so that anyone can join your wireless network.
Click Update to apply your changes (the base station will restart).
After the base station has restarted, the status light should be green and not blinking. If the status light stays amber in color and blinks after the Wi-Fi base station restarts, you may repeat the steps above. -
HT3275 How can I program the Time Machine to backup every 4-6 hours instead of hourly?
My Time Machine backs up every hour and when it occurs my Mac operating speed slows down to a crawl. Is there a way to change the settings so that Time Machine backs up every 4-6 hours or at specific times of the day, e.g. 6AM, Noon and 6PM?
Many thanks,

That shouldn't happen, unless you've made lots of changes and have your Mac already pretty well maxed-out. Changing the backup interval is just addressing the symptoms, not the cause.
Check the size of your backups; if they seem much too large considering what you've done since the last backup, see #D4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for some common culprits, and ways to find out what's actually getting backed-up.
If the sizes seem reasonable, see #2 there for things that may be slowing your backups down. -
Why can't I store Time Machine back up and Aperture vault on the same external drive?
The Aperture specialists tell me I need separate drives, one for each. Any idea why?
Thanks.Thank you guys!
I read somewhere in this blog tha TM does not always work well with Aperture and that one should supplement it with Vault.
In my case, there were 2 projects that consistently did not back up to my external drives (2).
I only found out (who checks every file in a back up?) when my Library did a very funny thing: it suddenly reverted to an earlier version of itself, meaning that these 2 projects were gone, which is why I went looking for them in TM - and to add insult to injury, projects and images I had deleted from my Library subsequent to that time, were back!.
As I was lucky enough to recover the images from my memory card, it happened to me again right after I restored the images to my Library and I had to do it again, which is why I am looking at vaults. -
Can't enter Time Machine on a remote Mini
Using ARD 3.2.2 on a MacBook Pro (10.5.5), I'm able to access (control, send files, etc.) a Mini (10.5.5, ARD 3.2.2/firewall is off). However, while controlling this remote machine, the control session sort of freezes up after I enter Time Machine on that Mini.
After pressing esc, I regain control of the Mini.
Why can't I see Time Machine?Hi ...
Been having the same problem with my colocated MacMini @ macminicolo.net. But with some help from the tech there, he gave me a great solution. We tried using the VGA adapter that came with the Mini & rebooting, but that didn't do the trick. He then remembered that some of his Unix box customers sent him a custom made dummy VGA adapter that worked for them. He had a spare one. We tied it and it worked like a champ. I was able to get into Time Machine remotely for the first time since setting it up ... and see all the graphics and buttons in TM correctly.
Here is the URL < <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://">http://tvtool.info/go.htm?http://tvtool.info/english/dummy_e.htm > to the article on how to build your own adapter. All you need is a VGA connector, its housing and three 75 Ohms resistors. A little soldering & you're done.
I'm off to Radio Shack to get the parts right now.
Hope this helps.

Does anyone know why my finder window resizes when I enter time machine?
Can anyone explain why my finder changes size when I enter time machine? I'm pretty sure this didn't happen on Snow Leopard but it does since I installed Lion. It's only a small glitch but it's rather annoying since I have positioned and resized the finder window on my desktop to the place I want it - in the centre of the screen and showing all the folders in my sidebar list. When I enter time machine the finder window becomes shorter, therefore not showing all the sidebar folders. I wouldn't mind if when I exit time machine it reverts back to the way it was but it doesn't so I have to resize over again!
Anyone know why this happenes?Take a snapshot of this issue and send it to Apple. I think it may be a small glitch.

Can't enter time machine if switched off
I have been using TimeMachineEditor for years to get only backup a day. But, after finally moving my previous backup to my new time capsule, I find that I can't enter time machine unless it is turned on in system preferences. This never happened before and I'm wondering if anyone knows why. The editor only works (although it isn't working at all at the moment) if time machine is turned off.
Thanks for the reply and I'm thinking that you are right that Time Machine is just buggy. I do have the latest version of the editor and I don't think the editor is at fault. I just did a backup, I think, but when I enter Time Machine it goes into waiting mode which means it can't find the backup even though the Time Capsule is mounted on my desktop. When I try double clicking on the file in the finder, it tells me that Disk Image can't find the resource. Later it will likely work again.
I bought the Time Capsule because I was wary of using a third party networked drive any longer since it erased all my backups a month ago and started over. But it looks like Time Capsule is no better and may even be worse at the moment. -
Hello Linc et al.,
I have been having Yosemite problems similar to those discussed elsewhere (e.g. iMac 27" late 2013 and Yosemite) (albeit with 10.10.1, Mid-2010 MacBook Pro): can't enter Time Machine, although it seems to be backing up; programs including Illustrator, EndNote, and Boinc don't start, or only after an hour or two (others, including Microsoft Office, seem okay). They will start normally in safe mode, but not for a newly created user. Many permission repairs carried out (seems okay except for a couple recurring printer-related messages), disk is okay, PRAM and SMC reset. Spent some time with various tech support, so most of these have been tried several times.
The solution here com.apple.xpc.launchd & com.apple.mdworker.bundles pollute logs with errors worked through one restart - there were two mystery uids, owning many files - but not through a second.
I have followed the permission repair procedure from another post (discussions.apple.com/message/27015992#27015992); the initial return was 639, and now it is 0. Restarted since then, nothing appeared to change.
Below is what I get from the test suggested in the first thread mentioned, I hope there is something informative here! I'll study it myself, but don't know what might or might not matter.
Thanks,
Barbara

The solution here com.apple.xpc.launchd & com.apple.mdworker.bundles pollute logs with errors worked through one restart - there were two mystery uids, owning many files - but not through a second.
I have followed the permission repair procedure from another post (discussions.apple.com/message/27015992#27015992); the initial return was 639, and now it is 0. Restarted since then, nothing appeared to change.
Below is what I get from the test suggested in the first thread mentioned, I hope there is something informative here! I'll study it myself, but don't know what might or might not matter.
Thanks,
Barbara

I have a new mac book pro/LION and can't access my back up data when I click on "enter time machine". I need the back up data that I could access on my old mac book pro (that is now broken). I can only access time machine back up data that I've obtained since starting the new mac book pro. Tnx so much
Try doing a click-and-hold on the Time Machine icon in the Dock, then select "Browse Other Time Machine Disks".
By the way, you've been misled by poor field labeling on this forum into typing a large part of your message into the field intended for the subject. In the future just type a short summary of your post into that field and type the whole message into the field below that. -

Time Machine - can not 'Enter Time Machine'
Back ups seem to prepare and progress and complete successfully and are visible on the TM Drive.
Everything worked fine, and then one day, I can not remember if there was anything I did or installed that may have changed this, as one does not know to check it all the time, other than to see the cool transition...
When I click on 'Enter Time Machine' or on the TM Icon in the dock, The screen flashes once, a window of desktop contacts flashes once, and then finder restarts with nothing having happened. It does not enter the Time Machine GUI.
I have searched high and low on discussions, no-one seems to have encountered this before. What can I do ? Anyone seen this , Any Ideas ?tibbs01 wrote:
Oh dear, no response to my post.
Mmmmm how will i ever get time machine to work again ?
I don't want to re-install the Mac Os.
you don't want to but you might have to. I've never seen anything like what you describe. you can try reselecting the TM drive in TM preferences and see if that does anything (I expect not). you can also try setting up TM with a different drive and doing a full backup. see if it works there. if it doesn't, I don't see any options besides reinstalling.
P.S. do you have any antivirus software? use Filevault? -
I'm able to make backups but when I click "Enter Time Machine" or if I try to go to Applications-> Time Machine... nothing happens. I need to restore a malfunctioning application and I really need to figure out why this won't work. I appreciate any guidance.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
As Guest, test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2. -
New MacBook Pro, OS X v10.7.2. I can't enter Time Machine. I've been backing up regularly to my external drive, plugged directly into my Mac. It seems to be backing up just fine. I try to Enter Time Machine, and nothing happens. No error message, and obviously no Time Machine. Without an error message, I can't figure out what to fix. Ideas?
Restarting fixed it. I tried it after following a More Like This thread. I swear I looked before I posted! Thanks, dannyson, for posting and fixing the same issue.

Can't "Enter Time Machine" on an older G4
I just installed 10.5.5 on an older G4 tower (AGP Graphics). The G4's original 350 or 400 MHz CPU has been replaced with a 1.2 GHz CPU. 10.5.5 and Time Machine backup are working without a whimper.
However, when I attempt to Enter Time Machine, the frontmost Finder window changes size, and a copy of the window appears in the center of the screen. But Time Machine's star-field background and the bottom and right side controls do not appear.
My guess is Time Machine wants more graphic power than the built-in ATI Rage 128 Pro.
I don't care about Time Machine's fancy graphics. I just want to be able to find and restore files. What can I do?I am having the same problem with my MacBook Pro (512 MB VRAM GeForce) when I try to restore my mail. I have only the Mail.app window above my desktop without the Dock and Menu bar showing. I can't do anything else except pressing the escape key to exit time machine mode. I don't have this problem when restoring other files.
So, I don't think it's a graphics problem but I couldn't figure it out. I just discovered the problem today and didn't find any solutions on the internet. -
HT3275 can't backup with time machine
I can't backup with time machine and I do not receive any errors, time machine just stays in the 'looking for backup disk' mode and will not go any further. I went as far as buying a new usb backup disk to replace the old one and still the same issue occurs. I've tried using different usb ports on my mb pro and that doesn't work. No amount of restarting, ejecting discs or checking preferences helps. Disk utility states the drive is fine (even the new one), the permissions or sharing haven't changed.
My system is up to date with the latest updates, and this all just happened out of the blue one day. I suppose I could do a system restore but I'm afraid of losing my data; and I'm not 100% sure how to do that.
I'm running OSX 10.8.2, 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5, 4GB memoryThere is good advice available about Time Machine. Go to Pondini's paper(s) before you do anything so drastic as a system restore.
