Long initial backup -- but it works

196 gigs of data took about 18 hrs to complete with Time Capsule (1 Tb). Using wired ethernet connection.
RE: speed of transfer through Airport:
After turning on Airport and holding down the ALT key, I get the following speeds showing: CHANNEL 1, RSSI -50, TRANSMIT RATE 130.
From what I see, this is slow compared to other users. Any suggestions for an EASY change without breaking it ?

The only way to get a higher transmit speed is to use the N only 5GHz channel. That will boost the transmit speed up to 300Mb/s if you also turn on use wide channels. The problem with this however is that it does not penetrate walls as well as the 2.4GHz frequency. Also, older 802.11g equipment will not be able to connect.

  • Initial Backup Won't Work

    Hello,
    I recently got a new mac with Leopard, and I've been trying to start up Time Machine. I have a 500GB external hard drive connected by firewire, and I'm trying to backup about 70GB of data onto a 385GB partition.
    When I have Time Machine do the initial backup, it gets about a megabyte backed up before it pretty much stops. The progress bar still says that it's backing up, but it doesn't progress anymore. I've tried leaving it to backup overnight, and when I checked in the morning, the progress was still at 1 MB. In addition, if I try to stop the backup by clicking the X, it doesn't stop until I go to Disk Utility and repartition the disk, in which an error message pops up (because it can't find the hard drive).
    Thanks

    If you have an Intel Mac then your backup drive must be partitioned using GUID and formatted OS X Extended (Journaled.) Do the following:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. If you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Set the number of partitions from the drop down menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    7. Repeat Steps 4-6 for each partition you've created.
    Once completed reselect the desired backup volume in TM preferences.

  • Is Time Machine under Snow Leopard faster only for the initial backup?

    A few days ago, I upgraded to Snow Leopard -- via clean install, manual reinstallation of apps, etc. So understandably, the first Time Machine backup to a preexisting store on an original 500 GB Time Capsule is going to be huge and take a long time. Apple claims that TM is 40% faster on the initial backup, but are there speed improvements as well? I was surprised by the slowness; I started it before going to bed, and it wasn't nearly done when I woke up:

    The throughput rate is quite variable, but at its best, it's only about 2.7 MB/sec. Is that to be expected, or would I have to start a new backup to see speed improvements?

  • Time Machine not backing up beyond initial backup on iMac G5

    Hi - hoping someone can help...
    I Have just upgraded to 10.5 and want to use my 500GB Mybook WD drive with Time Machine. When I first step it up it needed to erase the disc to get it into a Mac Journaled format, and then took about 10 hours to do its initial back-up of 230GB. After that it seemed to hang 'preparing' for another backup of over 20GBs... in system preferences had last backup and oldest backup as blank.
    I decided to start again, used disc utility to format the drive and time machine again did a long initial backup, and I left the computer for a while and now it wants to do a second backup of 223GB... and in System Preferences it still shows no oldest / last backup, and when I use Time Machine I can't go anywhere else but 'now'.... any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Cheers Sam

    I am kind of having a similar problem. I am able to back up my computer, but it only backs up 1kb every single time. And when i go to search documents I am not able to find them, I too only have the initial backup, but I am able to go back in time to many days back to look at the same thing over and over again. And every time I use it, while it looks sweet, it proves to be useless. I asked about this somewhere else and someone responded with the comment that time machine was pretty much worthless and has lots of bugs. A guy at the apple store had this same problem on a mac pro. I know I didn't really answer your question, but I guess it give syou a little idea of the problems going on.

  • Forgot my adminpassword, i have tried the reboot with initial disk doesn't work i can't downlad anything, I am able to log on but the name and password to get in my computer doesn't work for admin password. i am about to give up any suggestions?macbook10

    do you have any suggestions? Im about to give up, i can't even access wireless have to use a dsl
    pretty sad

    ... this same name and password doesn't work as an administrators password when i want to download or change things.
    It's probably that your Keychain password is not the same as your login password. If you configured your computer to log you in automatically, you may not have used your login password in so long you forgot it.
    There is no way to retrieve the "login" Keychain password, but you can reset the Keychain from the Preferences menu: select it in the Keychain Access menu and select "Reset My Default Keychain". This will create a new, empty Keychain but the old one will be saved should you ever remember its password.
    The result of this is that you will have to supply passwords for everything that requires it, since without your Keychain they will no longer automatically fill themselves. However, once you supply them and store them in your new Keychain, they will be remembered.

  • Time Machine wants 16 days to do an initial backup.  ps shows PRI = 33 with NI = 0.   But I can not get sudo renice to set PRI less than 15.  And renice sets NI directly with strange behavior for PRI. Any suggestions?

    Time Machine said it would take 16 days to do an initial backup, and indeed, after many days it is less than a quarter done.   (The problem started when I put in a new bank disk for Time Machine to write to for its backup file.)
    Activity Monitor shows that the process name is   backups   with Process ID   6060.
    Then putting this PID in Terminal UNIX command ps gave:
    EdsMacPro-1:~ ed$ ps -l -p 6060
      UID   PID  PPID        F CPU PRI NI       SZ    RSS ...
        0  6060     1  1004004   0  33  0  2556488  29040 ...
    Wow!  A priority of 33! 
    Don't know how that happened, but the way to fix that (I thought) is with renice. 
    But renice doesn't work.
    After a lot of playing with renice and ps, it looks as though renice can not make the priority better than (no less than) 15.
    And the parameter you put in, that according to the man page that is supposed to be priority, turns out to be "nice index", with priority changed by sometimes subtracting or sometimes adding either this number or twice this number - down to a limit of priority no less than 15.

    This is with OSX 10.7.5 and Terminal 2.2.3 on an early 2009 Mac Pro with lots of memory.
    What am I dong wrong, and any suggestions for how to fix my Time Machine process?

    The backup file size is 1.67 TB.*
    That's across the internal bus of a 2009 quad-core Mac Pro - which is pretty fast.
    Copying an hour's worth of MPEG-2 HD takes about a minute.
    I do a fresh backup from scratch about once a year, and the last time it finished over night.
    This time the first Time Machine backup is only about 1/5 complete after many days, and Activity Monitor shows essentially no use of disk drives or of CPU.  And in the first note I pointed out what is gleaned by using Terminal to execute the UNIX ps command. The priority of the running Time Machine process looks incorrect to me. 
    I could be wrong, but I think the problem is process priority, not file size.
    I am unable to set priority to 0 or a negative number.  Can someone straighten me out on how to do that?

  • HT3728 Can't get my initial backup to work with Time Capsule...get the following error: An unexpected error occurred (error code -6584)

    I linked up my Time Capsule yesterday and my initial backup failed twice. I then hooked up the Time Capsule to my iMac with an ethernet cable and now it won't work at all....can anyone help us out? Getting frustrated with this "easy" stuff!!
    Thanks.

    Let me guess.. you are using Lion.
    Redo the setup but download and install 5.6 utility if indeed Lion is involved.

    Use SMB names for wireless and TC.. this helps..
    Short, no spaces pure alphanumeric..
    Set and lock the wireless channels.

  • I cannot get backup assistant to work on my Cosmos 2. It keeps saying that I entered an invalid pin (but I've been entering the pin that it tells me to enter). I'm in the process of transferring phones.

    JWensley,
    Sorry to hear about the trouble with the PIN! Let's get you past that so you can complete the transfer process. Are you receiving that PIN by pressing the # key as outlined here: http://vz.to/1zINyY8 . Is this the initial backup on the old device?

  • HT1176 how long should an initial backup take?

    How long should an initial backup take?

    If the Mac is connected to the Time Capsule using an Ethernet connection, the backup will proceed on average at about 30-35 GB per hour.
    So, if you have 100 GB to backup, the process will be approximately 3 hours.
    Bets are off with a backup using wireless, but it will likely be at least 3-4 times longer than the wired Ethernet connection.

  • My iPhone 6plus will no longer connect to my Dodge UConnect system. Phone calls get a beep "phone call completed" message. Music will play though. Just can't make calls. Tried turning off iCloud and repairing but nothing works. It did work a few days

    Try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:

    Before that, back up your device, explained here:

  • Itunes Library reinstalled from backup disk- but doesnt work without DISK

    i recently cleaned up some bugs on my computer.
    I also installed Avast antivirus.
    I turned off the computer- a couple days later when I turned it on-my itunes library was empty.
    I reinstalled the library from my backup disk
    now lots of songs onthe library have exclamation points- when I click on them it says- we need to find them- then I put the disk back in and all is well.
    I bought I new Ipod - 7.0 all good- and it sync-ed great- all songs on the Ipod work
    ideally I would like to erase the itunes library and import everything from the Ipod so that I dont have to carry the backup disk everywhere. How do I do that? or another solution? thanks.

    Sounds good. Will this work for the iPhone apps, too? When I copy the whole iTunes folder, will the recopy correctly in the new iTunes?
    Yes...
    *Fast backup for iTunes library (Windows Only)*
    Grab SyncToy 2.0, a free tool from MS. Copy your entire iTunes library & any other media folders onto another hard drive or network share. After making your initial backup copy use SyncToy to periodically synchronise or echo your library to the backup. A preview will show which files need to be updated giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the changed files will be copied saving lots of time.
