List backup - can't see expired backups
I just want to see all backup pieces I have (including the expired ones) but only see those that are available. Why is that so? The documentation sais I'm supposed to see all except the deleted ones.
I can see all of my backups when I query the RC_BACKUP_PIECE view so why not in my "list backup" command?
As Allan stated, there is only one backup kept during normal syncing. The backup created when you restore a device is separate from the one created when the device is synced. The backup created prior to a restore is marked in the syncing preferences of iTunes with the date and time when the backup was created. If you manually initiate a backup, I'm not sure which one that overwrites (it may, in fact, overwrite both).

I am having trouble with my Itunes account on Windows XP . I can not see any list in my music files. The songs are there but I have to click on each song to see what it is. Also, in the itunes store, I can not see any pull down list or use my search bar. This happened when Itunes updated it's look. I can pull it up on my phone and see all of my purchased music. I would really appreciate knowing how to fix this problem. Thank you.
Traci LemleyNevermind - I answered my own question, which is I CAN"T READ ANY BOOKS I purchased in iBooks on my MacBook Pro. If I want to read on my mac I have to use Kindle or Nook. Which means any book I've already purchased through iBooks has to be read on my iPad. Kind of a drag because there are times when it's more convenient for me to read while I'm sitting with my Mac.

SharePoint 2010 and Designer 2010.
We have a list of items that users enter information into. Only the user who enters the data can see the item. It's confidential stuff.
One field is the name of the person who will approve this record.
Workflow sends approver an email and sets a task to approve the item.
Problem is that the user set as approver cannot see the item.
We can't have a list of approvers - as all staff can potentially be approvers.
We can't allow anyone other than the person who created the item and the person that is set as approver in a field to have access.
I am not a programmer, but a user of SharePoint Designer 2010.
(I did think we had this sorted by sending an email containing all the list item fields, but this task still requires permissions).Hi ,
I understand that after you grant user permission on current item ,the user still cannot approve the workflow task .This is because the user doesn't have approve permission in the Tasks list .You only grant the user permission on current item in current
list ,so he can approve the item by clicking the Approve/Reject in the edit control block .
Your workflow is correct ,now you need to grant the users Approve (a permission level) permission in the Tasks list settings .In this way ,the users can finish the tasks .
Thanks

Can't see or reference table generated by 'Make Table' query.
Hi,
MS Access 2013 --
Not really a programming question per se, but, if I create a query in the MS Access user interface, I cannot reference it; neither can I see it in the Access Objects List, nor can I see using the Objects Search Bar. I have observed this behaviour
numerous times. This seems to be somewhat like SQL 2008 SSMS which requires a refresh at the parent object level before you can see, for instance, a stored procedure you've just created. But, in the MS Access case, the only seeming solution is to open
and close the program. . . .which isn't an actual solution when this is a frequent occurrence. Any thoughts?

Can't see list of backups of TimeMachine service in Server.app
We can't see the list of backups (users and date of last backup) in Server.app anymore. Load the settings will say, after a couple of minutes:
Error Reading Settings
Service functionality and administration may be affected.
Click Continue to administer this service.
Code 0.
If I click Continue, I see the list of backup destinations and nothing else. In system.log, I get the error below. Both forward and reverse DNS works fine.
Any ideas? I didn't find anything useful on Google...

Can't see old backups on Time Machine
Originally, I noticed the issue when I went to do a backup and it failed because there was not enough space on the disk. Then I went to see if I could delete old backups. In Time Machine it shows today and one other backup, 6 days ago. It should be doing backups regularly. I have had the iMac and my external drive for years. I did update to Mavericks OS several months ago. That is the only change I can think of. I have seen older backups and used them before now. Not sure why I can't see them anymore and why it says my disk is full. Why isn't it deleting the old backups if it's full?
So I guess I have three main questions:
1 Why can't I see the old backups?
2 Why aren't the old files being deleted if it's full?
3 How can it be full if there is only one backup?
ThanksThese instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes.) You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard."
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Note the timestamp of the last "Starting" message that corresponds to the beginning of an an abnormal backup. Now
CLEAR THE WORD "Starting" FROM THE TEXT FIELD
so that all messages are showing, and scroll back in the log to the time you noted. Select the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ If all you see are messages that contain the word "Starting," you didn't clear the text field.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don't post many repetitions of the same message.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.

HT4859 Where can I see what data is in my iCloud backup?
I haven't gotten an error recently, but the iCloud settings don't say when the last successful backup was. I also don't know how to check to see my data on a PC browser or verify that it backed up everything I want it to. Thanks!
You can see when your last successful backup was by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and reading under Bac Up Now at the bottom.
You can see what is in your backup. You can only see what you have selected to be backed up by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your phone on the Backups list at the top, then looking under Backup Options. Note: your backup will contain other data as well (such as your text messages); these don't show under Backup Options because you don't have the option to exclude them from that backup. -
Time Machine - can't see backups
I have a 1T LaCie attched via USB and have been using since Sept 2008 - when i enter TM all I can see is back ups for Sept & Oct 2008, but nothing since. It seems to be backing up on a regular basis, and I get no warning messages. Can I just delete the backup file on the LaCie and start over if I don't care about files prior to what is on my HD now?
So, thanks to a rotten power supply I have a freshly dead 17.5 month old 1 TB Time Capsule which is out of warranty. To try and preserve the utility of my prior Time Machine backups and what seems to be a perfectly good 1 TB HD, I bought a 3.5" SATA enclosure with USB 2.0 and pulled the drive out of the TC and put it in the HDD enclosure. Now following Pondini's Tip #17 in the FAQ I can browse to my prior backups.
The big question is: How can I get Time Machine use the same HD from the Time Capsule (now attached by USB instead of Ethernet) to pick up where it left off making further incremental backups as it had been making for 1.5 years up until the TC's power supply died? I'd like to not have to back the whole thing up separately again and bifurcate the backups.
In Finder I can see a 104.93 GB file titled:
Mjmckay's Mac Mini_0016cba344dd.sparsebundle and dated the date I started using the TC.
Using the Disk Utility I can also see the name and info of the HD as follows:

Right now, TM doesn't see any oldest or latest backups
Are there settings I can change to get it to seamlessly pick up? I think I have seen some references in the user forums to a distinction made by Time Machine between backing up to a Time Capsule (wherein maybe TC is the only "easy" Network Attached Storage destination) with "sparsebundle" files and the way Time Machine backs up to direct, USB 2.0, direct-attached external hard drives (which is what my Time Capsule HD has now become). Or is that the problem at all?
Any one have suggestions? -
Can not see historical data in Time Machine backup
Hi folks
First my setup:
MBP Late2012
Samsung Evo 840 SSD
external USB 3.0 1TB as TimeMachine HD
Mac OS X Mavericks
Now my problem.
After updating to Mavericks I've made a full backup with Time Machine.
Then I swapped the former 500TB HDD to the Samsung Evo 840 500TB.
A clean setup of Mavericks follows.
After that I restored the Backup from Time Machine.
Everything ok. Til now.
Because everthing works fine in the past, I did not control the Time Machine.
Today I wanna restore a File from my "Pictures" folder.
So I opened Time Machine.
Oops.
There I can only see the latest run.
Also in the timeline on the right side the only entries are TODAY and NOW.
I can not scroll into the past.
All windows behind the current window have a black titlebar.
In Mountain lion the titlebars are grey if there is data available
and the title contains the date of the backup.
What is the problem?
Is there a bug?
Did I something wrong?
Thanx in adv.

How can I see a calendar item that was in my backup
I did a full backup at home of my 8330 with BB Desktop Software a week ago.
But I accidentally left my phone in the office and can't retrieve it until Monday.
The data I need is in one calendar entry in the backup. How can I see it? I don't own Outlook or Office.
I can't figure out where to start.
Solved!
Go to Solution.Not easily, as the backups are intended to restore to the BlackBerry device, not be viewed and/or edited on the PC.
Try to find ABC Amber IPD Converter software for your PC. It can read your backup IPD files and save to Excel or another PC file format.

Extracted Time Capsule Disk – Can't See Old Backups in Time Machine UI
Hello,
I was one of the unfortunate souls that purchased a Time Capsule in March of 2008, only to have its power supply die last month. Instead of buying a new one, I decided to take out the hard drive and attach it to an Airport Extreme.
The first few steps went fine: opened the TC, got the drive out, put it in a new case and hooked it up. Once I had it mounted, I told Time Machine to do a backup. And it did. And it was merely an incremental one. I was optimistic.
However, now when I "enter the Time Machine," I can only see the latest state ("Today/Now").
I'm wondering if anyone has an experience successfully extracting a TC drive, or if anyone has encountered my specific problem before. The fact that the backup action recognized the existing backups has me hopeful that there's simply some arcane preference somewhere that will make the Time Machine UI recognize everything properly. After all, the point of extracting the drive was so that I didn't have to start over.
Thanks!Ok, immediately after posting I read Pondini's "Time Machine - TROUBLESHOOTING" thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2057525) and found a solution in E2:
Also, sometimes TM will start a new "sequence" of backups, as if they were from a different Mac.
To see these "other" backups, you need the (badly named) Browse Other Time Machine Disks option. It's available by holding down the Option key while selecting the TM icon in your Menubar, or by control-clicking (right-clicking) the TM icon in your Dock.
You'll see a selection screen showing all the disks/partitions that have TM backups on them. Select the one you want, and you'll be taken to the normal TM "Star Wars" interface, where you should see all the backups on that disk/partition.
In my case, there was only the one disk showing, but when i selected it, all of my backups were visible.
I'm not going to mark this as "Answered" yet, because the regular "Enter Time Machine" menu option still does not work, as described above. But at least now I have a workaround to access the backups. -
How can I see the old backups of my previous Macbook done by Time machine in a Time capsule with my new iMac? I've changed from a Macbook to a iMac because that one stopped working and I cannot use it anymore. I've been able to import all the data of the last backup of the Macbook when setting the new iMac, but I cannot access now to the old backups of the Macbook and there are information that wasn't in the last backup and I would like to recover. Thank you very much.
Yes, you can ..
