I built a website, using iWeb. I backed up daily with Time Machine and OS 10.6. My HD crashed. I replaced the HD and installed 10.5. But now I can't restore iWeb and my domain file. How do I restore my site files on the new drive?

I obviously dont know how to use this forum...my question to the community seems to be the truncated phrase in the title block above..you can scroll thru it to see my whole question....basiclly,.my question is: How do I restore my iWeb domain files which are kept in user>library>applicationssupport>iWeb>domain in my Time Machine date listings...to a newly installed disc. I had a disk crash, removed the failed drive and installed another. I then installed OS 10.5 (I didn't have a copy of my 10.6). Now I'm having difficulty figuring out how to get the iWeb files from the Time Machine external drive used with the 10.6 to the new drive running 10.5...any help muich appreciated....!!

Go to to your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder in the Finder and then enter Time Machine. Go back to the last backup that has the domain file, select it and use the Restore button.

Can I back up computer with time machine on lion then reinstall snow leopard and restore from backup safely

Can I back up computer with time machine on lion then reinstall snow leopard and restore from backup safely?

If your machine came with Snow Leopard or earlier and you have your install disks, yes, you can reinstall SL. However, you will need to erase the entire hard drive so you will lose all your files. Also note that there are some apps (such as Mail) which can't be downgraded "automatically" such as with a restore from Time Machine. Here is some info on TM:

I just exported some music from Amazon to iTunes but now I can't find my original iTunes music. How can I find them?

I just exported some music from Amazon to iTunes but now I can't find my original iTunes music. How can I find them?

I did this by going into the folder where the Amazon MP3's were and copied the link into iTunes under the add file link in the menu. This music was purchased before I had an iTunes account so I wasn't aware that they could've been automatically exported. I still have the iTunes MP3s on my iPhone. Could I sync them over or something to that extent because I can't find the files at all even when doing a system search.

I just bought a new computer and want to load in photoshop from the old one. I have CS5. Since CS5 was an upgrade I installed CS4 first, but now I can't figure out how to install the CS5 upgrade. Any advice?

No, but it may help the chances of a successful installation.

Can time capsule be partitioned so as to back up osx with time machine and bootcamped windows drive with win 7 ulyimate

have imac 27 inch. I plan to bootcamp the drive and install win 7 ultimate to run AutoCAD. I want to backup the imac using time machine and the boot camped drive to one device. Can time capsule be partitioned to use time machine for osx and win 7 backup for bootcamp drive.

You cannot backup a Windows partition or system using Time Machine. Nor can you partition a TC as far as I know although Airport Utility may allow that now. See:
A whole lot about Time Machine for help with TM problems. Also you can select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and search for "time machine" to locate articles on how to use TM. See also Mac 101- Time Machine.
Of course you should carefully read the documentation that came with your TC to find out what options are available.

Back-up fcpx with time machine on external disk?

Hey there,
I just started with editing in FCPX on a Mac Book Pro, and I'm trying to make a back-up on an external hard disk with Time Machine and I work from my internal hard disk. So every time I'm done editing in FCPX I let Time Machine make a back-up on my external hard disk.
So that seemed a good idea, but when I'm trying to open a project from my Time Machine-back-up, FCPX gives the error: 'The document “CurrentVersion.fcpproject” could not be opened."
Is any one familiar with this problem? I just want to be sure that this way of backing-up my projects is doable. It would be a great help!
Grtz,
Chloe

Opps! The program is Event Manager X. Sorry for the mistake. Google it to get to web site.
When you use "Duplicate Project" from within FCP X it will create an exact copy of your project. Options are included for events used in the project. I select the option to also copy all events actually used in the project. You have to select the hard drive where you want the duplicates stored. I put the duplicate on my backup hard drive. Now I have both the original project and the duplicate project showing in the Project Library. I also have a new event showing in the Event Library called "Clips for .... Project".
Now I want to "hide" my backup (duplicated) projects and events from FCP X so neither of us gets confused and inadvertently messes up the backup project. That's when I use Event Manager X. It will show you a list of all your projects and events on all your hard drives. You simply uncheck the project and events you want to hide. When FCP X opens back up those projects and events will not show up in your libraries.
To restore a backup project you simply repeat the process except check the projects and events you want to return to active status.
This, in my opinion, is a not only a good backup procedure, it's also an easy way to reduce clutter and mess in your workspace by "hiding" projects and events that you aren't using. There's also some evidence that having large numbers of projects and events showing in your library adversely affects FCP X performance.
You can schedule Time Machine to backup at certain time intervals; however, I'm thinking that it's pretty much backing up stuff as you work, so you need to turn it off manually. Not sure about this. Anyone else know how Machine Works?
Good luck,

Can I use a Linksys EA 6900 router with Time Machine to do backup?

Hello, I have a Linksys EA 6900 router. I plugged in my WD Passport (formatted in Apple Mac format) 1 GB drive into the USB port and I can see it on the network, browse it etc no problem, but when I try to back up to it using Time Machine, it does not find it.
Please help, thanks!!

Backing up that way is not supported by Apple. There are tricks you can use to make it work, but you don't know if your backup will be of any use when you need it. Many people have found that using unsupported methods with Time Machine results in failure to restore when they need it.

How to recover old Back ups made with time machine?

After a recovery with time machine to a very early back up, it completly deleted my old back ups from my back up drive? I had almost everything there. how can i get it back? is there any way?

Hi Patsmith7,
i think I understand what you're asking. You'd like to move the current Time Machine backup to a new HD so that it will never be written over as you continue to use the current HD where the data resides. If that is correct, then just follow the below link which will show you a very simple way of accomplishing this.
If you only want to move a specific date then you will have to follow the same instructions in the link but click on the drop down arrow on the current backup which will show you each instance (date) of the backups. Grab the date that you're interested in and complete the move as instructed in the link to the new HD.

Good Luck and let me know if you have any other questions.

Can you use two Time Capsules and back up both with Time Machine.

My little iMac hard drive (250GB) is quickly filling up with my iTunes library (180GB). I have a 500GB Time Capsule which I use to back up my system via Time Capsule. I would like to move my iTunes library to an external hard drive. If I add the 1TB Time Capsule and use it as my main system back up and wireless router can I use my 500GB Time Capsule as an external drive to locate my iTunes library? Will I be able to back up both my iMac HD and the 500GB Time Capsule to the 1TB Time Capsule using Time Machine or some other method?
Finally if I can do this can I have both Time Capsules running wireless?

Could I simply make a copy and move it between the two Time Capsule on a routine basis say every two weeks or month?
Yes
I know I will have to "point" or "map" the new location of my iTunes library to the external hard drive/2nd Time Capsule. Once that is done wouldn't Time Machine then just find the location and back it up along with all the data on the iMac hard drive?
Since this Time Capsule would be connected wirelessly or via Ethernet to your Mac, it would appear as a network drive. Time Machine will not back up data FROM a network drive. Therefore Time Machine will not back up data on this other Time Capsule.

How can I find the serial number from CS4 for my mac? I remembered it being on the box, but now I can't find it, and they website I thought to have registered it to doesn't recognize the e-mail I would have used then I got it.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but the website recommend I ask here. I bought the CS4 when I bought my macbook pro in when I was in college. I remember there being 2 serial numbers, so I could install to one other computer. That macbook pro finally died, and now I have a new mac which I am trying to re-install the creative suite on, only I can't find the serial number. The two stickers on the back of the CS4 box (which i thought were the serial numbers) don't look like that they're asking for, and the website listed on the inside of the box for me to register to doesn't recognize my e-mail (which hasn't changed since buying CS4). Any idea where I could find the serial number?

HT201250 Backing up data with Time Machine and iOmega

I haven't backed up my data with an iOmega external hard drive and Time Machine in three months. As soon as I plugged in iOmega, the screen went to the purple outer space background with a box indicating a list of options to be backed up. I clicked "All My Files" rather than the default "Documents" because I have been working extensively on iPhoto and iMovie. That was an hour ago. The screen has not changed. I can feel the hard drive whirring, so something's going on. How long should it take?

The backup frequency can be changed using e.g. TimeMachineScheduler and I think you can set Time Machine to backup external drives. (System Preferences --> Time Machine --> Options)

Can I use my time capsule for solely for back up purposes with time machine?

Hi Bob,
Just go back to this issue. Maybe I have not explained my config correctly.
I have Speedtouch router for Internet access connected to a soho switch with 8 ethernet connections on the ground floor. To this switch there are wired 7 Microsoft devices including PCs on both the ground and first floor) and an airport express Wi-fi hot spot (first floor) . My Macbook is wirelessly connected to the AE for Internet access . An HP printer is also connected to the AE.
I would now like to set up the TC as a wifi back up disk for the Macbook using Time machine.
Should I a) replace the AE with the TC or b) can I set TC up seperately ?
If a) can I use the same network Id and password for TC as I had for the AE or do I need to use new ID and password for it?
If b) is there a risk of interference between the TC and AE ?
Probably a) is the best solution as I dont really need the AE if The tC will give me greater functionality but I would like your confirmation of this
thanks
Yvonne

Backing up macbook with time machine for first time

I tried backing up my macbook for the first time, using time machine, to a new portable external hard drive formatted for p.c. The screen said do you want to erase the disc and i did. It said nothing about formatting for mac, but began to appear to be backing up my computer, and was running for 3-4 hours doing that. I walked away from the computer and came back an hour or two later, and there was a message on the screen saying error, could not create directory. I don't know if this was related to the initial backup, or if an hour later it tried updating the backup and it referred to that. How do I know if my computer is backed up properly. What do I do about the message about the directory. If I don't need this program to update the backup every hour, how do I change that. Also, I have a 1 terrabyte external hard drive on which I store all my raw photography files, can I plug that in and plug in another new external hard drive and back up the external hard drive to the other external hard drive using time machine as well? thanks for any suggestions, this is a little confusing the first time, Virginia
