Old timer

I was certified a long time ago. What exactly do I have to do to get on certview? I may have tried to upgrade a few years ago but gave up.

Key answer is given here in hte help center .... its a top question: It currently says:
How do I sign in to CertView? Close
The first time you access CertView, you will need to authenticate your account, you will be prompted to do so
You will need the Oracle Testing ID and email address from your Pearson VUE profile to authenticate your CertView account. If you have recently created or updated your Pearson VUE account, please allow 48 hours for the data to transfer to CertView before trying to authenticate your CertView account.
If you have difficulty authenticating your CertView account, your account will be referred for manual authentication after 3 failed authentication attempts. Within 3 business days, you will receive an email with confirmation of your authentication.
https://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=459
That essentially means you needs to sign up for a Pearson VUE account ... when you do so remember to say you have tested with oracle before ... and most ideally give your Prometric Id. number. ( Or you may even be in pre-prometric days .... )
If that fails you will get a new oracle testing number ... and then would need merge to see previous exam/certification. More painful.

    I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
    You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots.  Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
    See Pondini's page for more explanation:   What are Local Snapshots?   http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
    You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.  
    The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library.  Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.

  • Is there any way of undoing a shuffle? The CDs I downloaded to iTunes have all been shuffled. As most of these are classical, it is inappropriate to have them separated into songs that play any old time. Can I restore them to the original albums?

    Is there any way of undoing a shuffle? The CDs I downloaded to iTunes have all been shuffled into individual 'songs'. As most of these are classical and folk, it is inappropriate to have them separated into songs that play any old time (ie, a movement from Beethoven's 5th symphony followed by a folk song followed by one excerpt from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, etc. Can I restore them all to the original albums and make sure the shuffle doesn't happen again?
    Thanks!

    Thanks! That has worked, but only partially - there are still some Beethovens mixed in with the Vivaldis. I'm sure I installed these as total albums.
    I have noticed that too from time to time, I generally move the files into the correct folder and fix the index in itunes when one won't open, occasionally.

    Hi Craig
    Unfortunately, in your case, there isn't really a way to separate them as far as I can think.
    You could try restoring from a backup, and choosing an older backup perhaps

  • How can i retrieve a few important files from an old time capsule ?

    Hi  can anyone give me a step by step guide as to how i retrieve just a few files from an old time capsule ?
    without a router  ?
    I've plugged an ethernet cable into the wan port & my mac & it shows up as a sparspsebundle data file
    but i desperetly need to grab these certain files
    please can anyone help?
    can i use the usb port on the back of the time capsule
    there must be a way  HELP PLEASE  many thanks

    Don't panic we are working on it..
    I am just avoiding Yosemite like the plague.. (plague on you Yosemite!!) .. as its networking is so bad it causes chaos on my network.. to all other devices.. even though only one device actually runs Yoyos!!
    I am not sure how hard it is for you to go back to Mountain Lion.. or if you have a computer running ML on the network.. if so definitely use it.
    What OS was last used by the MBP when you stopped using it or is it fully up to date. Is the computer in the network now? If so it is much easier to copy and paste the files from a live computer.
    Did you encrypt the backup.. that would really mess things up or have an encrypted disk??
    Have you used the normal TM tool in Yosemite to try and recover your files?? Or perhaps migrated the files.. this can work fine.. migration often being a better way of doing things.. although there are a few rules about using different user names.. etc.
    There is another proviso here I must add.. Yosemite cannot see the backup quickly.. what I mean is that your backup is >500GB. Even by ethernet Yosemite version Time Machine can take more than 24hours just to index that.. maybe longer and by wireless a lot longer.. 3-5 times.. I do not know why spotlight is so slow in Yosemite.. but trust me.. it is pathetic. The yoyo got its string in a knot and seems to need to untangle it for every single file on the backup.
    Be very patient if you open TM backup in Yosemite.. and definitely do this by ethernet not wireless.. otherwise you might die of old age beforehand.

  • Help: How do I use old Time Machiene Back up?

    I recently ugraded my MBP to a newer version.
    I used to use time machiene to back up on a 1 TB external HD.
    After migrating all settings from my old MBP I am not able to use the old Time Machiene backup from August 08, any ideas on how i can link the back up?
    Thanks

    You cannot. It is a different machine. You need to start a new backup. You can continue to access the old backups from the old machine by ctrl-clicking the Time Machine icon on the Dock and selecting +Browse Other Time Machine disks+ .

  • How do I migrate multiple sparsebundles from my old time capsule to my new time capsule?

    My old 1tb time capsule died on me last week. I bought a new 2tb model. I have put the old disk in an enclosure and I can access the data on it.
    The old time capsule was used to backup three Mac's. How do I migrate the three sparebundles to the new time capsule? I want to keep all the backup histories.
    I found lots of sites with tips but they all assume that the old TC was used to backup only one Mac.
    I run Lion on my main Mac and all time machines were configured to backup via wireless.

    It worked. Kinda. I think.
    I did the steps outlined in option 3. It took 2,5 days to do it (maybe because I had already switched to wireless).
    Once the copy of the files was complete I actived time machine and selected the new time capsule as my backup. It said there was no backup history. But then it started backuping. Instead of the full disk (as I thought it would do, as it said there was no backup history) it only did about 35Gb. Which was what I had expected. I had just upgraded to Lion. After that backup it immediatly started again and did a backup of 40 Mb. (Why ???).
    After that was done I started time machine and all the old backups were there (eg 2010) as a test I restored a file from Jan 2010. And it worked.
    So now the other two sparsebundles to do.
    @Jolly Giant: Thank you for the help and advice.

  • How do I connect an old Time Capsule to look for data from a previous OS?

    Hello. I replaced my old Time Capsule with a new one a few months ago, and broke in the new Time Capsule with a fresh backup of a clean 10.9 install after migrating my user account.
    Today, I noticed that there were some folders full of personal data that are neither on my MBP, nor in my Time Machine backups on the new Time Capsule. I am hoping that these folders still exist on my old Time Capsule which I used with 10.8.
    I'm wondering how to search through my old Time Capsule and its Time Machine backups. Specifically, I'm wondering how to connect it to my MacBook Pro, and whether I will be able to search for my (hopefully not) lost data through the Time Machine interface, or through the directory structure contained in Backups.backupdb.
    Can anyone help me out with a plan to proceed?
    Thank you very much.

    1. Turn off Time Machine in System Preferences
    2. Unplug new Time Capsule
    3. Turn off Wi-Fi in the menu bar
    4. Attach old Time Capsule to power
    5. Attach old Time Capsule to MBP via ethernet
    6. Wait for old Time Capsule to appear in Finder > Sidebar > Shared
    7. Select old Time Capsule in Finder > Sidebar > Shared and Connect to old Time Capsule
    8. Select the Data directory
    9. Double-click on the .sparsebundle file that represents the volume that was backed up on the old Time Capsule
    10. Hold down the option key and click on the Time Machine icon in the menu bar and select Browse Other Backup Disks...
    11. Select the Time Machine backup disk you would like to browse and choose Use Selected Disk
    12. Browse old Time Capsule backup in Time Machine environment, restore data as normal, exit Time Machine as normal
    13. Eject old Time Machine backups (the .sparsebundle you mounted) under Devices in Finder > Sidebar
    14. Eject old Time Capsule under Finder > Sidebar > Shared
    15. Disconnect ethernet; disconnect old Time Capsule from power.
    16. Plug in new Time Capsule (it boots); turn Wi-Fi on (reconnect to network, if necessary); turn Time Machine back on in System Preferences

  • Migrating from old time capsule to a new one

    I have a new Time Capsule (4th gen, 2TB) that I want to replace my old Time Capsule (3rd gen, 2TB).
    (The rationale is that I was splitting the original between time machine backups and shared home media but it had become full and performance was sluggish despite the auto-deletion of oldest backups.  Instead of getting a USB drive for the other media I decided to upgrade my main TC to the newest version but keep the 3rd Gen just for the media.)
    What I'm looking for is a simple explanation for how to set up my new TC to replace my old one.  The manual isn't clear on this and I can't find a clear thread on the discussion that mirrors my situation.
    My guess is that I need to follow these steps:
    - initialise the new TC as (just) an external HD to my Mac
    - deactivate time machine then copy the sparsebundles to the new TC
    - set up the new TC in network router mode
    - deactivate the network router mode on my old TC
    - swap the new TC for the old TC
    - reactivate time machine and point it towards the new network drive
    My first question that I'd be grateful for answers to is: is the above correct or would you propose a different approach for any reason?
    My second question is how do I then re-mount the old TC as a shared network drive
    - can it connect by wifi or do I need to connect it by ethernet or USB to the 'new' TC?
    - I assume I can simply delete the old sparsebundle files and repoint iTunes to access the media
    Many thanks for your time in responding!

    Alot of your steps depend on the first one which is wrong.. sorry.. you cannot use the TC as external HD.. it is now and forever a network drive.
    That being the case.. let me suggest the following order.
    - deactivate TM.. yes that stops messy things happening.
    - setup the new TC to do all the functions of the existing one. The easiest way to do this is simply pull the old one out the network and install the new one.. otherwise you are trying to make two network connections to the two TC which will by default have the same IP. This will depend though on if you normally use ethernet. Do you?? I will suggest it another way if that is the case.
    - Factory reset the old TC.. and then set it in bridge mode and plug it into the new TC by ethernet.
    - Make sure all the network connections are full gigabit speed. If you are going to copy the old TM across this is going to take maybe a day or more.. assuming you have the 1TB drive full. TC cannot copy from one to the other direct.. it has to go.. TC1-Computer-TC2. which halves the speed.
    Do you really need these old backups.. IMHO it is better.. much better.. to start a fresh TM backup. You can get a USB drive to offload the existing backups using the direct archive method.. although you will need the old 5.6 utility to do it.
    - Copying sparsebundles is not hard.. just time consuming. See Q18 with every combo of doing this.
    http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    - Then you can erase the old TC and load your media on it.. remembering that the TC has no way to back itself up.. and TM cannot backup a network drive.. so if you store itunes library for instance on it.. and access it by wireless.. except that at some stage it will corrupt itself. Count on it. Make sure you have a backup.
    - reactivate TM if you did indeed move the old sparsebundle.. and point it to the right target disk.

  • How do I purge old time capsule names?

    I have been unable to get an old 1TB time capsule to run as a back up on time machine with a Mac mini (OSX10.9.5)—I have spent almost two days trying to set it up to work as it should but in the end I have had to come here.
    On the time capsule, I have updated firmware to 7.6.4, reset to factory by pressing the button inset on the back (several times) and erased all data using Airport utility 6.3.2.
    First off, I want to purge any and all old time-capsule names (and lost passwords) that pop up every time I activate time machine>select disk or airport utility>base station. This still happens even after I have reset and erased all data on the time capsule.

    Not sure how I could uninstall 7.6.4,
    Downgrade firmware by holding down the option key when you click the version number in the summary screen.
    (I also did this with TC connected directly to the Mini via ethernet to the WAN port),
    Never connect to the WAN port.. always LAN.. you are setting this wrongly so getting into trouble.. All devices behind plug into LAN or connect to wireless.. only the router connects to WAN.
    when I opened TMachine (TM) up popped the "old disc name" on "the new TC name."
    Reset TM.. you are mixing things up.
    Time Machine needs to be totally fixed from the computer.. the setting on the TC is totally irrelevant.
    See A4 here. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    Now I cannot seem to get the Mini and TC to see the ethernet connection at all. FYI the ethernet connection on SysPrefs>network shows "self-assigned IP"
    You are plugged into the wrong port.
    It is LAN not WAN. Hence no IP address.
    It looks like a clusterF to me...any suggestions as to how to get TM/TC to back up via ethernet before disconnecting the ethernet connection and going totally radio?
    Full manual setup of the TC in total isolation from the network... MUST WORK.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5800974?tstart=0
    Or should I just use TM with an external HD connected to the mini via USB, which at present looks like a far more sensible option?
    Local backup is faster, more reliable and in Mavericks 1000% better.. Mavericks has major network issues.
    And TM is lousy as well.
    I use Carbon Copy Cloner as a backup software.. as well as TM.. it is more reliable and bootable clone backups can be tested in a few min so you know they work. None of this is possible with TM.

  • New Airport Extreme with old Time Capsule?

    I just bought a new 802.11ac Airport Extreme to increase the speed and range of my home network.  My network currently runs on an 802.11g Time Capsule.  I would like to continue to back up to the old Time Capsule.  Should I just set up the old Time Capsule with wireless off in bridge mode or should I place the Time Capsule somewhere else in the house strategically, leaving wireless on, to improve range?  Someone told me adding a G-speed access point or client to the network would slow things down. 
    Thank you SO much for the help; I'm sort of a wireless networking dummie. 
    Steve

    My network currently runs on an 802.11g Time Capsule.
    I assume you meant to say 802.11n Time Capsule. There are no 802.11g models.
    I would like to continue to back up to the old Time Capsule.  Should I just set up the old Time Capsule with wireless off in bridge mode or should I place the Time Capsule somewhere else in the house strategically, leaving wireless on, to improve range?
    You can do either. If you hare happy with the coverage of the 802.11ac AirPort Extreme, then I would recommend that you go with your first idea. I would connect the Time Capsule directly to the new Extreme using an Ethernet cable, disable its wireless and reconfigure it as a bridge.

  • Old Time Machine Hard Drive - Can't access files?

    Hi
    I have just put an external hard drive I have not used for a approx a year into a spare bay in my Mac Pro.  It has HD video on it, but was surprised when I rebooted my machine to see it is a Time Machine drive (green and white desktop TM hard drive icon).  There is just under 400GB free space of the total 1TB drive, but can only access approx 260GB of that free space.
    So, I am wondering if the remainder of the drive - approx 140GB is an old Time Machine backup from either Lion or Snow Leopard.
    Time Machine can not see the files nor can I access them via Finder.  I only have Mountain Lion on my machine at present, but could partition my Boot SSD drive to add Lion or Snow Leopard on to it.
    Is there any reason why I can't access these TM files if they do existing, or could there be other reasons why this is happening.
    Thanks in advance.
    Matt

    Sorry, I think it's the way I replied to your last question.
    TM remains switched off from doing last clean install and have not used it this time.  I now use an SSD for my boot drive and all my important files I use as and when needed are stored on other hard drives.
    TM at the moment is swtiched off, but with the paddlock open it is asking me to Select Backup Disk - is this what you meant in your last post?  Just wanted to clarify - thanks

  • How-to move time machine backup from an old Time Capsule to a new one?

    As written on the title, I need to move my old backup from an old 500GB to a new dual-band 2TB Time capsule, but I have not found any hint.
    I've found many suggestions how to move the backups between externa HD; from external HD to a Time Capsule; between Time Capsule and external HD.
    But nothing about my needs.
    Someone can give me an how-to or at least some hint?
    Many thanks to every one!!!

    I was able to do that by using the Finder to copy the "sparsebundle" files from the old Time Capsule to temporary storage, replacing the Time Capsule, then copying the "sparsebundle" files from the temporary storage area to the new Time Capsule. If your temporary storage is limited and you have more than one "sparsebundle" file to migrate, you can copy one at a time.
    AirPort Utility also has an "Archive" function that you could use instead of a Finder copy.
    I believe I saw recently a method of copying directly from one Time Capsule to another, although I can't find it at the moment. If that option makes sense for you, I'll look further.

  • Transferring Time Capsule Data from an old Time Capsule to a new one?

    How do I transfer the data from my old 500GB time capsule to my new 2TB time capsule.  I just installed Lion as well.  I have the time capsules connected with the Ethernet cable.  I can see both of them in the finder.  When I open the Disk Utility I can only see the old time capsule so it is not possible to drag the new time capsule to the destination field in the restore tab.  Please help.  I would like to have my existing time machine backup on my new Time Capsule.
    Thank you in advance.
    FYI Time Machine 101 is not any help.

  • Restore Files From an Old Time Machine Disk

    Please forgive and send me a link if someone has already answered this but I need to restore files from an old Time Machine Volume to my current desktop.
    How do I do this?

    control-click on TM in the dock and choose "browse other TM disks". choose your old TM backup to browse and restore what you need. also, you can always open your TM drive in finder and copy what you need directly via finder.

  • I'm using my old Time Capsule as an external hard drive.  Can I back it up?

    Upon upgrading my older iMac's hard drive to 500GB and more or less filling it, my 500GB Time Capsule became less useful as a backup and more useful as an eternal drive.  I've bought a new 2TB Time Capsule to use as my primary backup/router, and have connected my old 500GB directly to my iMac via ethernet cable to store large media files and free up some disk space.  My problem is that the "TC Backup Disc" partition appearing on my old Time Capsule is the only place I can store files, and this partition won't back up via Time Machine to my new Time Capsule.  I've tried erasing and restoring, but remain unable to create any folders on my old Time Capsule that Time Machine will back up.  Any ideas?

    The Time Capsule is a network drive and Time Machine cannot backup files that are already on a network drive.
    You might want to take a look at Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper, as both of these utilities will backup a network drive like the Time Capsule.
