My time capsule back up error says sparsebundle not found
My airport time capsule stopped backing up my computer, it comes back with sparsebundle not found error. Another MAC on the system backs up just fine.
What OS is on the computer? This is fairly typical Mavericks networking.
Did you reboot the TC?? No luck reboot the whole network.. from everything off restart in correct order. modem.. TC.. computer.. with a couple of min gap to allow things to settle down.

Time Machine Restore and now says Scanner not found - when trying to use
the printers.
Had a faulty harddrive -(per the apple store - this after replacing the screen and logic board...) - so they installed a new one - I restored from my time machine backup - and then went to use my HP 1315 Scanner. Didn't work - get error - scanner not found - even though I can print to the device.
So - I uninstalled and reinstalled the printer in the system preferences - but get same error - so instead I uninstalled all the HP apps and reinstalled them (a pain because HP doesn't make 10.5 software yet).
Still same issue - Scanner not found.
I was using this same scanner prior to the hard drive freeze. HP posts a notice that if you really want the hp software to work you should downgrade to Tiger, install, then reupgrade - but that seems like a lot of hassle to get a scanner to work.
Does anyone have another suggestion?Thanks Barry -
I wish Profile allowed to list all of my computers and all of My OS systems - but it doesn't - so I'm forced to post each and every time whatever OS is causing whatever issue I'm having.
I have deleted and reinstalled several times to no avail. I do get an error on install that the HPIOX cannot launch...
I am a bit frustrated - this is the 5'th device an Apple upgrade has cost me...
All my belkin devices for my iphone don't work with the new iphone (they altered a pin configuration for the power)

It wouldn't be such a hard pill to swallow except I keep seeing that ad where the japanese girl comes by and the Mac guy starts talking japanese and the tag line "it just works" -
No - in fact - it doesn't.
My camera only shares pictures with the mac - movies require a 3 way translation
My printer will print - but not scan
My Mercedes car kit will play music - but not charge
All of these things worked with Tiger and Iphone 2g - seems to me like either Apple is trying to force profitability of its partners by forcing consumers to constantly upgrade to new equipment - or - they just don't give a s_t ---- -
Time capsule backs up too frequently.
My Time capsule backs up too frequently. As a result virtually whenever I use my imac it is slow because it is backing up. Is it possible to select a daily back up only?
My Time capsule backs up too frequently.
Not sure what too frequently might mean.
Time Machine will backup the changes on your Mac hourly as long as the Mac is not sleeping. If you are backing up using wireless, and things appear to be slow, then you may need to do some troubleshooting on your wireless connection link and speed.
I am not necessarily recommending it, but you can use a utility like Time Machine Editor to set backups to occur once a day, or on any other schedule that you like.

I keep getting the message "The backup disk image “/Volumes/Donald Baker's Time Capsul/Donald Baker’s iMac.sparsebundle” could not be accessed (error -1). does anyone know what this means? My time capsule refuses to back up.

The last date of my back up was 10/4- keeps saying The backup disk image "/backup disk image "/Volumes/time Capsule/ cheryl lynott's MacBook.sparsebundle" is already in use?
HELP -- what does this mean -- .......
Often, this error can be corrected by pulling the power on the Time Capsule, waiting a few minutes, and powering the Time Capsule back up.
See # C12 for more tips

Help !
The last few days my time capsule reports an error The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use.
To make things worse I seem to be loosing my screen so need to make a back up ASAPMake sure that no other Macs are backing up at the time.
Pull the power cord from the back of the Time Capsule
Count to ten
Plug the power cord back into the back of the Time Capsule
This will fix the issue about 98% of the time. If you are in the unlucky 2% category, please post back for more assistance -
Need assistance with my Porsche Design LaCie Time Capsule... It is not operating at all.. I have ran the diagnostic via the Disk Utility and under the error reading it runs the repair and then says it not about to repair what do I do... Thanks
LaCie doesnt make ANYTHING. It contains a Seagate 3.5" 5400RPM HD.
Check the HD on another computer, if nothing, your SATA bridge is fried, or the HD (very unlikely since its a Seagate inside)
Youd have to crack open the HD, remove the SATA bridge cart thats plugged into the HD and put the HD into an enclosure or a HD dock to get the data
those external HD use a 50 cent SATA bridge famous for failing. The curse of all the good HD externals is the junk 3rd party SATA bridges attached to them that crash and burn.

HT1218 Time Capsule is showing error code -6584)
My Time Capsule is showing error code - "An unexpected error occurred (error code -6584)"; can someone tell me what this means? Correlated, Time Machine does not show any backed up data although it says that ~400 GB out of 1 TB is remaining.
On the More Like This.. see the various very common complaints.. just to the right >>>
First one is good.. anything Pondini responds to listen. https://discussions.apple.com/message/17748380#17748380
A simple reboot of the whole network.. from off.. modem .. router/TC.. clients.. 2min gap will probably fix it.
If it keeps happening, tell us your OS. (Most likely Mountain Lion.. which has networking ability of wet string and a pair of tin cans). -
Time Capsule local snapshot error (MTM FS server)
Hi
I found an error in the console log which happens every second.
It seems the Time Capsule causes this error:

If I disable the local snapshot: sudo tmutil disablelocal
The errors are gone..
But I've no idea why I get these errors.
I formatted my whole Time Capsule and startet from scratch but the same errors...
I working with Yosemite and the 2nd or 3nd generation of Time Capsule.
Any ideas on this?
I appreciate any help...Yosemite is actually not just buggy it is broken. The DNS is broken. After you restart the TC for the next few minutes yosemite can find it.. after that it is lost again.
Users have finally got so sick of the situation they have started hacking mDNSResponder back from 10.9.
See http://arstechnica.com/apple/2015/01/why-dns-in-os-x-10-10-is-broken-and-what-yo u-can-do-to-fix-it/
You will get error after error because Yosemite cannot find the server.. -
I have the new iPad and I could not use I tunes , every time I get an error says "cannot connect to itunes store " please help
Sorry, yes iTunes on your computer.
When I updated my iPad 3 and iPod Touch 4th generation to iOS 6 a few months back, I was able to update the iPad effortlessly over WiFi. but I kept getting error messages when trying to update the iPod over WiFi, so I used iTunes on my MacBook Pro.
Connect the iPad to the computer, launch iTunes. Select the iPad under the devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update
If you are using iTunes 11, go to View>Show Sidebar at the top - so the sidebar is visible. -
Has anyone encountered this message on their time capsule/machine? Time Machine couldn't complete the backup because the backup disk image"/Volumes/Patti's Time Capsule/Patti's MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" is already in use"?
If you reboot the computer it should fix the problem. Also see the first link under More Like This to the right of this page:

I,m getting this message, The backup disk image “/Volumes/terry bostock's Time Capsul/terry bostock’s iMac.sparsebundle” is already in use. What does this mean. I've upgraded to Mountain Lion, but it was ok till recently.
A constant bug in Mountain Lion.
Usually, simply powering off the Time Capsule, waiting a few minutes, and starting it back up will reset the network connection.
Give that a try first. -
My Time Machine / Time capsule gets the error: The backup disk image could not be mounted
My time machine / time capsule gets the error: The backup disk image could not be mounted.
Reboot the TC.
If you normally have multiple computers backing up, under Lion there seems to be some issues.. you need to force other users off the system. You can do that through the Airport utility, manual setup, disks, disconnect all users. Note carefully if you use Lion you probably need to download the real airport utility.. 5.6 to accomplish anything useful. -
Does Time Capsule back up everything on my computer? If I inadvertently delete photos from iPhoto can they be retrieved from Time Capsule?
About TM "Backup Drive is Full"
Alert TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Time Machine "thins" it's backups; hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first of the day; those "daily" backups over 30 days old, except the first of the week. The weeklies are kept as long as there's room.
So, how long a backup file remains depends on how long it was on your Mac before being deleted, assuming you do at least one backup per day. If it was there for at least 24 hours, it will be kept for at least a month. If it was there for at least a week, it will be kept as long as there's room.
Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive.
Also, see Pondini's Time Machine FAQ -
Will time capsule back up an external hard drive
Will time capsule back up an external hard drive?
Time Machine will backup the drive to the Time Capsule if it is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and it is connected directly to your Mac by USB or FireWire....and it is not "excluded" from backups in Time Machine Options.
