In Time Machine "Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while completing the backup folder

Time machine fails to complete backup

I've been getting the Unable to Complete Backup error message for several days. Last good back up was 11-22-13 at 11:13PM. I am running an iMac with OS-X 10.7.5.
I did the above steps in Console and got a huge string of lines; I tried to edit all repeitious ones that were the same, but still ended up with a lot of lines that seemed to develop more different processes over a few days. Sorry to put all this stuff in here, but I don't honestly know what to make of all of this code language.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Reboot the TC.. it sometimes gets lost on the network.. are you still actually using 10.6.8 as the problem is more prevalent on Lion and ML it seems is no better.
You might find reset of the TC is needed. change the names to short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.
Reset the TM to the new name.. use the A4 in Pondini's great KB.

I am trying to back up my imac using an external storage: My passport Studio 1TB. Each time it trys to back up Time machine says: Unable to complete back up. An error occurred while creating the backup folder. Does anyone know how I can fix this problem? Thanks

Plowie,
Do a search in Discussions, "An error occurred while creating the backup folder."
Many of us are having this problem and no fix has been offered, that I could find.
Unless you call "eject the external HDD; turn off; turn back on" a fix. That's what I have to do every 2 or 3 days; I even have to "force eject", with the concomitant warning message that you could lose data, etc.

HT201514 Trying to back up Time Machine to My Passport Air external hard drive, which is supposed to be compatible with my iMac and Mountain Lion, but get the message: Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder. Help!

Hello, I've just bought a Mac compatible Passport Air external hard drive, which is supposed to be compatible with the OS I am using (Mountain Lion) but I keep getting an error message saying Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creting the backup folder. I've tried all the help suggestions, but nothing with this actual message comes up - it appears to be partititioned correctly etc, so don't know what I'm doing wrong - any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.

Were you not plugged in via USB to begin with?
I would recommend performing some resets just to be on the safe side. Unplug the external HD, and try these steps:

Time Machine Issue-Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder.

Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder.

As usual, backups worked for a few days. Failed again on wakeup this morning...
Starting standard backup
Backing up to: /Volumes/TM Backup/Backups.backupdb
Error: (22) setxattr for key:com.apple.backupd.ModelID path:/Volumes/TM Backup/Backups.backupdb/David’s Mac Mini size:10

Error: (22) setxattr for key:com.apple.backupd.ModelID path:/Volumes/TM Backup/Backups.backupdb/David's Mac Mini size:10
Backup failed with error: 2
I've searched Discussions and have seen the exact same error messages with all kinds of Macs and ext HDs, both USB and FW. I can't believe it's a 'failing HD' since it works for a few days; and that it's been going on for months now. Seems like the ext HD would have actually failed by now if that was the case.
I wish I could figure out why three different errors are reported: (-50), (22), and :2

Time machine couldn't complete the backup...

Hi,
My TC backs up three Macs. All of them run 10.8 and are up-to-date. My MBA is unable to perform scheduled backups. A minute or so after Time Machine starts a new backup it pops-up a dialog 'Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to "Mike's Time Capsule". The backup disk could not be found.'
My Time Capsule is visible in Finder. If I click Open Time Machine Preferences... the window shows the Time Capsule disk and that it has 89GB of 998GB available.
If I then click Select Disk... a new window opens. In the Backup Disks section my Time Capsule is listed as Data on "Mike's Time Capsule". Below that in the Available Disks section there is Data on "Mike's Time Capsule" and Other Time Capsule Set up a Time Capsule that is not listed here.
If I click Data on "Mike's Time Capsule" in the Available Disks section and then Use Disk, the same error dialog reappears immediately.
I've tried removing the disk from the Backup Disks section, turning off Time Machine and then adding the disk again, the error pops up again.
Turning on Time Machine without selecting a disk automatically selects the Time Capsule as a backup, I am asked for the Time Capsule's password and the countdown to the backup starts. After a long period preparing the backup, the first backup will complete normally as will any manual backups, but timed backups all fail with the error that the disk can't be found.
I've turned off Time Machine, deleted the two plist files from Library and tried again. Same problem recurs.
I've even tried turning off Time Machine, removing the whole backup file from the Time Capsule and restarting with no luck.
My other two machines work just fine.
There have been no significant changes to any of my machines or networks recently.
Time Machine Buddy says:
Starting manual backup
Attempting to mount network destination URL: afp://Mike%20Richards;[email protected]/Data
NAConnectToServerSync failed with error: 64 for url: afp://Mike%20Richards;[email protected]/Data
Backup failed with error: 18
The Time Capsule is acting as a router for my wireless network which is used by the MBA and my phone and tablet - no problems connecting to the Internet. Airport Setup shows no problems with the Time Capsule as a router and it is up to date.
So any ideas appreciated - thanks!
Mike.

My Time Capsule is visible in Finder. If I click Open Time Machine Preferences... the window shows the Time Capsule disk and that it has 89GB of 998GB available.
You have done most of what we normally suggest people do..
89GB is the backup size. that is very large for an incremental or is this backup of the full disk again, having been deleted by you on the TC?
Did you happen to upgrade install Mountain Lion onto the Air or is it a clean install?
I would suggest wireless is part of the problem. As a route around the problem, go and buy the USB to ethernet dongle (cheap) or the Thunderbolt to ethernet (fast but expensive), so you can plug the computer into the TC.
Redo the setup of the TC.. even from a full factory reset.
If you are on 7.6.3 firmware be a bit dubious about it.. especially if issues started recently after the upgrade. I would even suggest go back to 7.6.1 before you factory reset.. although that loses the info on which is the cause.
Use naming convention of short, no spaces pure alphanumeric for everything. TCname Wireless name and hard disk share name (already correct with data).
See C9 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
This might be one of the more obscure ones, but I think it isn't helping using names that have spaces and special characters.
