ITunes Music files on time machine back up

I am having an issue locating my iTunes files on my time machine. I recently purchased an SSD, but because it was so much smaller than my initial HD, I didnt include my iTunes library in the install for the new SSD. I would like to use some of my iTunes music that I have for a small film project I'm putting together but I can't seem to find the actual files on my time machine. Any help I can get in finding these owuld be really appreciated.
I do have the older backups for my larger HD on my time machine still, so the music has to be in there somewhere is what I am thinking.

Admittedly, I am not a genius on all things Time Machine, but it seems to me that unless you have specifically excluded a drive/volume which stores your iTunes library, Time Machine is backing up everything.
What reason do you have for being concerned that Time Machine is not backing up your music?

  • Can you transfer files using Time Machine back-up to a new computer?

    I have an early 2006 iMac and would like to get a new one. Would I be able to copy the files that I want moved to the new computer by using my Time Machine back-up? I would only want to transfer a handful of items including my iTunes and iPhoto libraries as well as my iWork files.

    You most certainly can. What you want to do is to go to System Preferences>Time Machine>Advanced> and exclude everything except the files you want to bring over. Then, plug the Time Machine Backup into the new machine and use Setup Assistant; It'll walk you through the rest.

  • IWeb on macbook pro with mavericks cannot import old iWeb files from time machine back up

    Hi! The apple store completely wiped my macbook and installed mavericks. I made a time machine back up before bringing it in to be completely wiped. Computer had bad software so they recommended me to handpick items and bring them over to new operating system without completly putting the entire time machine back up on it.
    So I did but my only concern is Iweb. Now I got Iweb back installed in mavericks I cannot seem to import any files from my back up to my application in my renewed computer with mavericks. I searched for .domains, sites and sites2 but I cannot extract anything and I still have some old websites stored with Iweb and use the application quite a bit...
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks a million....

    Not sure what you mean by extract but this might help;
    If you're running Lion or later the Home/Library folder is invisible and that's where the domian files are located.  That folder will be invisible in the TM backups also.  Therefore  you can extract Domain files one at a time out of the TM backups for import into iPhoto.  You would do it as follows:
    1 - download and run Find Any File to search for a file named ".site".
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages.
    2 - the search can take a while due to the structure of the TM backups.
    3 - select the backup from which you want to recover the Domain file.
    4 - drag the file from the search results window to the Desktop.
    If you recover more than one Domain file be sure to rename them after dragging to the Desktop so that you don't overwrite one with the next.
    5 - you can put the Domain file(s) in your Home/LIbrary/Application Support/iWeb folder but will have to make the library visible as follows:
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible in Lion or Mt. Lion enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Optionsmenu to bring the this window:
    To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • Recovering "iTunes Music" folder from Time Machine Backup (Permissions Err)

    OK, long story, but stay with me.... could be an interesting one here.
    So I move to a SSD hard drive in my 24" iMac. New Intel SSD drive is only 160GB, so I'm only using it for the OS, Applications, etc... all of my data is on an external FW800 disk (Western Digital MyBook). I've already relocated my Home Directory to the external drive and that seems to be working great for all my pictures, docs, movies, etc, except for iTunes.
    My iTunes library comes up, but I can't locate any of the songs. I checked the preferences and it's pointed to the correct location on the external disk. So, I was trying to do the relocation, but it would appear that the MUSIC folder does not have all the data i copied into it. When I try to open the "iTunes Music" folder I get this error... "The folder "iTunes Music" can't be opened because you don't have permission to see it's content". I've checked my Time Machine drive which obviously has all the music files on it (the space is taken up), but I can't get to them to recover.
    Any clue how I can get this permissions error resolved so I can get my music? I have (3) backups of the same directory... all the same story, no permissions. I even created the same user account name when I rebuilt Snow Leopard on the SSD.

    I don't think you understand. I need to get my music from Time machine where it is backed up. How do i find it in time machine and how do i transfer it to a seperate HD?

  • I just bought the latest Mac mini i5 but every time I try to transfer my files from time machine back-up of my mini mid 2011 model I always come up with some sort of problem?

    I am so fed up with using time machine to restore my files from my previous mini. I have tried several different ways and every time there is some sort of problem. I just want to restore it back to the original setting and manually reinstall my  personal software. My question is: Is it better to reinstall osx using the recovery drive or downloaded from the app store. Also if you have already reinstalled from the app store does that effect the recovery drive?

    It does not make any difference it you reinstall from recovery partition or app store since in either case the OSX install files are downloaded from Apple servers.
    What problems (error message?) are you gettng whenb trying to restore form TM?

  • Laptop died... can I rescue files from Time Machine back up and transfer to my kids iMac?

    Hi. Not sure this is the right forum, could not find a Time Machine forum.
    My 18 month old white Macbook has died (screen and track pad). I cannot afford a new one. I have a time machine backup. Is there a way to either
    1. Take the HDD from the laptop and put it into an external HDD enclosuer, plug it into someone else Mac and access my Pages folders etc.
    2. Or can I swap out a HDD from another macbook, install the HDD from the dead macbook and use it as normal...
    3. Plug in my TM backup into another mac and (kids have macbooks and iMacs) and access my pages folders etc...
    4. Or do some other combination of things to get up and running until I can buy another machine?
    Many, many thanks for your help.

    As long as the machine that is recovering the drive is not older than what's on the drive, and it has enough room to support all the contents of the drive it should work with the Migration Assistant.   Otherwise a piecemeal recovery may be needed.

  • I had a new hard drive fitted to my imac and restored it from my time machine back when I try to open itunes I get this message "the itunes library extras.itdb file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file"

    I had a new hard drive fitted to my imac and restored it from my time machine back up on an external hard drive when I try to open itunes I get this message "the itunes library extras.itdb file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file"

    To solve this issue all I did was check to ensure that the file permissions were set as described by the earlier posts, followed by simply deleting the iTunes Library Genius.itdb file.  Once the file was deleted I was able to open iTunes without difficulty.  Note that I am running Windows 8.  Hope this helps!

  • Time machine on external drive will not back up itunes media file on a separate external drive. Have already reformated itunes media drive,dragged itunes media backup file from time machine (old copy) and removed time machine plist and restarted.

    Two external drives, one for time machine backups and a second (daisy chained firewire) for itunes media folder . Time machine fails to backup the media file saying could not be completed, with no error specified. Steps taken already include reformating drive with media, dragging older media backup file from time machine disc to media disc, and deleting time machine plist and starting time macine preferences upon startup. Media folder is approx 200 gb, mostly ripped dvd movies.

  • How can I back up only selected files using Time Machine?

    I'm a graphic designer, I use a number of Time Capsules to periodically back up my entire computer. But I also want to set up another Time Capsule (bus powered external hard drive) that will continually run as I work and only back up a single folder and all it's sub folders - in this case a folder called 'Client Files'.
    QUESTION: How do I use Time Machine to back up only my 'Client Files' folder and all it's sub folders?

    Frankly, this is probably not worth the time and trouble that it will take to set it up.
    Time Machine backs up your entire Mac by default.
    Time Machine Preferences / Options gives you the ability to Exclude items from backup, so to do what you want, you basically will have to Exclude everything else on the Mac from being backed up.  That is going to be quite a task depending on where your Client Files folder resides and you have your Finder files set up.
    It will not be that difficult to Exclude major folders..... things like Applicatons, Pictures, Music, Documents, etc.....but to get to the point where you want may not be that easy.
    Take a look at things by opening Time Machine Preferences, then click on Options
    Since you will be adding items to be Excluded, you would need to click the + button at the bottom of the window and then navigate to find the general folder that you want to Exclude.
    Unfortunately, you cannot simply tell Time Machine to only back up the items that you want.....you have to tell Time Machine what NOT to back up.....which is going to be most of your Mac.
    And.....whatever you set up in Time Machine /Options to be Excluded will apply to all backups to all Time Capsules.  You cannot specify what is Excluded on one Time Capsule and not another. It's all or nothing. Not what you want to do, I am sure.
    Good luck 

  • I can't drag and drop iTunes music files into Roxio Jam 6 anymore and, now I have to import music one song at a time by using the " " or "-" buttons on the bottom. What is going on? G5 Dual 2 Ghz and OS 10.4.11

    Hi. I have not used Roxio Jam for quite a long time and I just wanted to make a few CDs. Jam used to work easily and well. I have a problem. I can't drag and drop iTunes music files anymore and, now I have to import music one song at a time by using the "+" or "-" buttons on the bottom. What is going on? I trashed the preferences file and restarted Jam to no avail. I also have selected that Jam should open files with iTunes in the Jam preferences. I have a G5 DP 2Ghz PPC  machine with OS 10.4.11, iTunes 9.2.1 and Quicktime's version is 7.6.4. I have 2 GB of RAM and the machine has dual 1.25 Ghz. processors plus a 500 GB HD. Can anybody give me any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Larry

    I found an solution.
    Uninstalling AirParrot as well as the two offending AirParrotDriver.kext and APExtFramebuffer.kext files in System>Library>Extensions was the fix. All problems disappeared.

  • I can't access my files on my old Time Machine back up on my newer iMac

    Okay, so I’m in a bit of a mess here.
    I did have an old Macbook running on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 which died on me.
    Luckily I managed to get a few Time Machine Back Ups  before I passed away . These back ups are
    saved on a non-Apple external HD.
    I recently inherited an iMac ( from 2009) which was also
    running on Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I got very excited and hastily up graded the OS
    to Yosemite.
    This iMac belonged to a friend, and I did not have the Snow
    Leopard disc to perform a factory restore so I decided to simple delete their
    account (System Admin account) from the iMac and keep the account they made for
    me with the intentions of making that the main account.
    After upgrading to Yosemite and deleting the System Admin account and making
    myself the main account holder on the iMac I tried to access my files on my
    external HD to manually move them onto the new iMac ( such as my photos,
    videos, music, logic files, documents etc).
    This is where I encountered my problem. I can no longer
    access my folders on my external HD. It tells me I do not have permission to do
    so, with a little red stop sign on front of all of these folders and files.
    Is there any way I can fix this without having to buy a Snow Leopard disc? AND
    IF I do perform a factory restore will my files in my HD still be locked?
    Thank you in advance.

    I managed to get a few Time Machine Back Ups  before I passed away
    I'm not sure whether a ghost can do this, but if you were still alive, you could do as follows.
    First make sure you have read & write access to the folder you're trying to restore to. You should be able to see its contents in the Finder, and to move files in and out of it.
    This is an exception to the rule that you should never make any changes to backup data. I've tested this procedure in OS X 10.8 only. It should work with later versions, but I don't know whether it works in earlier versions. Use it only for files that were backed up from your home folder, or a folder on another volume created by you, and would normally be writable by you. Do not touch backups of system or application files.
    In the Finder (not in the time-travel view), navigate to the backup volume, then to the folder named "Backups.backupdb", and then to the snapshot you want to restore from. The snapshots are folders labeled with the date when they were created. Inside each of those folders is a file hierarchy like the one on the volume that was backed up. Descend through the hierarchy until you come to a folder named "Users," and inside that, a folder with your user name. The procedure will be different if you're trying to restore files on another volume.
    Select the folder and open the Info dialog (command-I). Click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and authenticate. In the Sharing & Permissions section, give your account Read & Write access. You may have to close the dialog and repeat this step in order for the change to show up. Then click the gear icon and select
              Apply to Enclosed Items
    from the popup menu.
    Try the restore operation again, in the time-travel interface.

  • Working from Logic files on old Time Machine back up

    Hi there.
    Apologies if this is a bit a newbie question, I'm not new to apple, but new to using Time Machine in these circumstances.
    This is my issue. I have a 2.0ghz Dual core 500GB hd iMac in my semi pro music studio. I back up to a 1TB hd using Time Machine. The iMac was beginning to get very slow I guessed because it was 470 gb full, so I made sure the back up was completed, then I did a complete fresh install of Snow Leopard (up from Leopard).
    All good so far.
    Now, everything back up and running, reinstalled Logic Studio, all plug ins etc etc, but I wanted to keep the computer fairly clear of files etc, so I was hoping to be able to work from the timemachine files. Now I guess I shouldn't use the same external hd with time machine now because it will start backing up the new almost empty Snow Leopard version. But here's the issue. I open a Logic Session from the back up and it all works, plays, I can make edits to the midi, audio, but as soon as I want to save I get a series of spool and permissions error messages. It seems to work if I save the file to my desktop and work from there though. But then I don't have this saved on an HD...
    Does any one have any suggestions here?
    Would it work if I bought a new hd, plugged them both into a USB hub, imported tracks I want to use from the old hd and time back up using time machine to a new hd?
    To add another spin to the issue, I am also using a 15" i7 Quad MacBookPro. I want to use this in place of the iMac however I already have a USB input shortage (3 on my iMac version) and use a 2nd monitor. My macbook has the thunderbolt port... Does anyone know of any hubs using Thuderbolt?

    How do i delete & reformat my time machine external back up drive & start reusing it again as a time machine back up facility??
    Welcome to Leopard Forums:
    If you repartition your drive it's quick and works fine.
    Using disk utility, create two partitions on the drive and then repartition into a single partition.
    When creating two partitions, be sure to overrun the existing data. You should get a warning about losing all data, which is what you want.
    Leave everything else alone.

  • Is it possible to change the read/write permissions on a time machine back-up of iTunes? I need to restore it, but old version is locked....

    Is it possible to change the read/write permissions on a time machine back-up of iTunes? I'm needing to restore it as my phone deleted half our playlists during sync  & am not seeing a way to unlock the permissions. I have the current version unlocked, but can't seem to get the backed-up version. When I click on restore I get a pop-up that says iTunes can't be deleted as it is part of the OS. I'm not even trying to delete, just restore the old version. Any suggestions?

    Hmmm, ok I'll give it a shot. I've always had the iTunes sync w/ my phone set up to only load selected playlists to the phone b/c there's a lot more in iTunes than I have room or desire for on my phone. A few months back I started having trouble w/ trying to sync everything & subsequently adding more to the phone than it could hold. The quickest thing at the time was to unclick the sync music option in iTunes so I could still backup the phone to the computer & not have a problem.
    When I asked about it during one-to-one session shortly after, they advised me to delete the music off my phone & then re-sync it to the computer, run a backup of the phone & redownload the music to the phone. When I tried this it ended up deleting all my playlists (but not my husband's) from iTunes. Irritating, but I've been rebuilding the playlists since. I had also unclicked sync music again & an Apple person told me the most likely best fix was to delete & reload iTunes completely.
    A few days ago I realized I hadn't backed up the phone to the computer in over a month so after deleting & reinstalling iTunes, & w/o changing anything (sync music was STILL unchecked) I ran a backup & my phone went from having 4 GB free space to being 2 GB over capacity due to iTunes trying to download the entire music library to the phone. I made a one-to-one appt again & it was suggested AGAIN that I delete all the music off my phone & then resync it to the computer & redownload the music. We did this (though a few random songs that had previously been purchased somehow remained on the phone), I got home, connected the phone & instead of the music that shows  as 'on my device' disappearing from iTunes it just sat there, so, as the guy had told me I MIGHT have to do, I threw all those songs showing in iTunes as being on my phone, in the trash so that it was completely clear.
    At this point I checked sync music, made sure the options were 'selected playlists only', checked the ones from my own list that I wanted (I usually have one playlist of comedians from my husband's folder that I also have on the phone, but didn't check it at this point). It uploaded all my stuff just fine, but for whatever reason when it saw that I wasn't uploading that comedy playlist any longer, it not only didn't upload it but proceeded to delete my husband's entire folder of playlists from iTunes. -_- I got on the phone w/ an Apple support person right away but he wasn't able to tell me anything .. basically said we'll have to rebuild everything. I asked about the possibility of using time machine, he said he's not qualified to answer that, so that's when I started looking around online & found, among others, the link I referenced a couple replies ago.
    I hope this all makes sense. It's been a long-term issue so I'm trying to go from memory as I figured to begin w/ that I had just made a mistake somewhere, so didn't try to document anything. Now w/ it having happened a 2nd time, I'm not sure if it was 'user error' or something else.......
