My HD has been replaced and when backing up from my time machine the transferred got interrupted

My HD has been replaced and when backing up from my time machine the transferred got interrupted. When Mac book booted only half the data. So I erased the hard drive to start again although I now can't restore from my time machine  as its saying not enough space on HD to restore. Please help coz I'm freaking out!

I seriously doubt that you can do that. I've never heard of anyone doing something like this. I also strongly suspect that that windows software didn't preserve all the resource fork, ownership and hard links correctly.
You are left with manual migration of your data back to your computer. this isn't as hard as you make it sound. You just need to copy you own stuff back. also use the following [post|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6185507] to migrate important parts of you user library, Mail, iphoto etc. You will have to reinstall your applications by hand.

  • My hard drive failed, has been replaced, and now it won't boot to CD.

    My hard drive failed, has been replaced, and now it won't boot to CD to install the OS package. It would boot for a while, get through the first cd of install and would stop randomly in the next install. I found out that the installation disk was cracked so I went out and purchased the Mac Box Set which includes Mac OS X Snow Leopard, iLife '09 and iWork '09 under advisement from an associate at the local apple store. Now, I try installing this new OS disk and all I get is the apple logo without a spinning wheel for about 10 minutes and the computer restarts and does it again. I have tried booting from disk, holding c while starting up, and in safemode, holding shift while booting. Please help save my poor poor macbook!!!

    These errors look like corrupt or missing files that leopard requires. It sound like you need to start from scratch: format your drive, reload Leopard. I realize that this is probably what you are trying to do.
    If you cannot boot from install DVD and cannot successfully get into Safemode or Single usermode (due to a corrupt or incomplete install) then you will need another computer to assist you.
    If you can get it into Target Disk Mode and have another Mac you could plug it into that Mac and reformat it.
    If it will not go into TDM then you may need to take it out and put it into an external enclosure to plug into another Mac to format it.

    Hi,
    Based on the description, you got warnings when you tried to click the mailbox delegation option of mailbox properties in EAC. Is it right?
    Did this issue affected only one user mailbox or all of them?
    From the error message, it seems that this issue is related to the corrupt permissions. Please use the
    Get-MailboxPermission cmdlet to retrieve permissions on a mailbox to check result.

    You must contact iTunes support to get the problem resolved.
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    If there is a problem with your account or payment info, you cannot
    download anything (including free apps or updates) until the matter
    is resolved.
    In countries where the iTunes Store only sells apps, the accepted payment methods are Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Other payment types such as gift cards, store credit, monthly allowances, ClickandBuy, and PayPal are not accepted. Depending on your App Store country, prices may be listed in your local currency, US Dollars, or Euros.    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552

  • HT3275 EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!  NEED TO RETREIVE AN ACCIDENTALLY DELETED BACKUP! BACK UP FROM MY TIME MACHINE DRIVE????  In other words, I emptied out a folder on my main MAC to make space and the next subsequent backup backed up the EMPTY FOLDER and then delet

    EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!
    IS THERE ANY WAY TO RETREIVE AN ACCIDENTALLY DELETED BACK UP FROM MY TIME MACHINE DRIVE????
    In other words, I emptied out a folder on my main MAC to make space and the next subsequent backup backed up the EMPTY FOLDER and then deleted the "old backup" that actually contained the contents of the very important folder.
    Now only the emptied folder exists on my MAC and in the two backups on my Time machine backup drive.
    This was clearly a big mistake on my part not realizing that the "old backup" being deleted by Time Machine would include backed up files that I had no intention of getting rid of....
    What can I do now?
    Is DATA RETREIVAL even an option?
    I am sure that the Folder of files that I need are on the most recently deleted "OLD BACKUP" but how do I get to this, if even possible?????
    Super desperate situation here...

    It may be possible to recover some of the data, if it hasn't been overwritten, but it won't be cheap or easy. 
    You've posted in the Time Capsule forum, but you mention a "backup drive."  If your backups are on a Time Capsule's internal HD, instead of an external HD, it's even worse.
    See Data Recovery.
    Good luck.

  • My wife got the iPhone 4s and when backed up with her old one the app store app

    Got the new iPhone 4s and when backed up with my old one (one of the first) the app store & other apps disappear, can someone advise?

    If they are pre-installed apps they cannot be deleted so they may have inadvertently moved it onto another screen or into a folder, Utilities appears to be a common folder so check to see if that has been created.  Check all screens and folders and do a search in Spotlight, it will tell you if the apps are still on your iPhone but unfortunately not where they are. If you find them on one or your screens or in a folder, press the icon until it wiggles and then drag it back to where you want it.  I would also suggest you check restrictions, particularly as you mention the app store icon - Settings>General>Restrictions>Installing Apps & Deleting Apps>ON. Alternatively you can reset your home screen in Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

    Hello popsicles,
    This first article should be helpful in getting iTunes to recognize your iPad once more:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If the device is still disabled once it's appeared in iTunes again, please reference this second article:

  • HT3275 getting already in use when backing up iMac to Time Machine

    I'm getting the following error when trying to backup to my iMac to my Time Machine, and I think it might be related to the MacBook I purchased yesterday and connected it to the same Time Machine.
    The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/Martin’s iMac.sparsebundle” is already in use.
    Any suggestions on how to determine the problem and resolution?
    Marty

    A computer is holding open a connection which is stopping other computers from working.. or you have loaded the sparse bundle in finder and it is not being unmounted.
    Go to the airport utility.. (5.6 if Lion) and manual setup.. disks page.. disconnect all users.. you will then be able to use the device.
    I am assuming Time Machine means Time Capsule.. it is a common mistake.
    There are a number of other issues that cause the problem but that is the most common.
    Some more info here.

  • I have logic pro has filled my computer. When i move it to Time Machine / the startup disc says it is still to full to use App

    I am trying to move all files to time machine .
    After i move them my start up disc says it is still full and can't use app.  Also I noticed Logic App is making a copy od tracks on another part of computer. Is this why memory is full? Can i save these large files straight to the back up and still use them?

    You need a non-time machine hd to move files off of your main drive.
