Problems loading Time machine since clean install of Yosemite.

I have an IMAC 27"/2.8QC/2x2GB/1TB/5750/SD.
I recently tried to upgrade to Yosemite without success, I ended up taking my IMAC to my local Apple store and they ended up doing a clean install of Yosemite.  When I came home I completed the install and plugged in my Time Machine to recover the historical date i.e. files/photos etc.   Time machine is showing files going back to the 4th September and no further so far although it should be going back nearly four years, I am also unable to select any of the files/photos to restore.  Any help would be appreciated.

Time Machine in Yosemite must index all of the old backups on your backup drive before they will work correctly.
That process will take a long time....a very long time if you have backups going back 4 years.
With my Mac connected to a Time Capsule using an Ethernet connection, it took 2 days for Time Machine to index the old backups, and my backups only went back about a year.  It might take a week for Time Machine to index all your old backups.....assuming you are using Ethernet.
If your Mac connects using wireless to your network, the indexing process will likely take 3-4 times longer.
You will know when the indexing is nearing completion when you can access your backups and go back 24-36 months to see them.

  • How to restore files from Time Machine after Clean Install of Mavericks

    How to restore files from Time Machine after Clean Install of Mavericks. I know the data is there but seems unaccessable because I may have changed the Computer or Owner name. Is there any way to fix that now?

    Hi Linc,
    my back-up data is managed by Time Machine; the actual data is on a second internal Hard Drive with a capacity of 1TB - not partitioned. I am using Time Machine and have access to all data backed up since Mavericks Clean Install but not the data prior to this date.
    When I open the 1TB drive in Finder I can see a folder "Backups.backupdb/Sigi's Mac Pro/ followed by many folders of backup dates going back to 2010-09-20-103441 and up to 2014-02-07-142414 all followed with folder Macintosh HD.  February 7th  2014 was the date of the clean install.
    These Backups are followed by backup date folder 2014-02-08-075554 with a subfolder of MacPro-320GB (this is the name I assigned to my Boot Drive during formatting; I suspect I should have assigned the same name as before ie. Macintosh HD) and 2014-02-11 with a subfolder Macintosh HD, these are the ones I get access to by way of Time Machine > Restore.
    Weird thing is on Febr 11 when I relised my possible mistake and renamed the Bootdrive back to what it was initially ie. Macintosh HD despite this I have access to all backup data since the Clean Install in both folders MacPro-320GB as well as Macintosh HD but not to any data prior to the Clean Install.
    Is there something that Time Machine knows and prevents access or is it simply a matter of renaming the subfolder 2014-02-08-07554/MacPro-320GB to ........./Macintosh HD?
    I like to restore selectively and not everything - It was hard work reinstalling apps that were supposed to be the troublemakers (ref my discussion on Maverick problems) but I now need to get onto data specific to some of these apps as well as other data I may have missed. Long story? Yes and sorry.

  • How can I restore my contacts from a snow leopard time machine to clean instal of Lion

    I recently did a clean instal of Lion (which was wayyyyy to difficult by the way--why this wasnt an easy option to begin with I do not know and am not happy about).
    In my sleep depravation from the previous problem I accidentally synced my contacts from mobile me to take my computer contacts (deleting all my contacts from my phone and computer).
    Fortunately I have a back up on my time machine from my previously installed Snow Leopard.
    I tried to restore these files, but they seem to not be compatible.
    Steps I took:
    1.) -Opened Address Book in Lion
    -Opened time machine
    notes: i could not go backward in time with lion address book
    2.) -Copied files from time machine address book to desktop
    -completely unable to open files.
    I do not want to use migration assistant because it seems to want to take ALL my files over and frankly thats not what I want to do at all.
    PLEASE HELP!

  • Restore from time machine after clean install of Mavericks

    I decided to do a clean install of Mavericks to get rid of all the very old files hiding in my system folders.  I made a startup disk following online instructions, rebooted from the USB drive and wiped the drive and reinstalled Mavericks.  Then I plugged in my Time machine backup drive and tried to recover particular folders from the latest backup.  However, I am getting a permission error that prevents me from going into the old user folder from that backup.  It has a red circle/line icon on the folder.  How do I get around this so I can select what to restore?

    You might be able to view in System Preferences > Users & Groups.
    Time  Machine  -  Troubleshooting by James Pond is the best source around for Time Machine  help.
    I'm not seeing your issue listed. It's possible you will need to do a full Time Machine restore to another drive so you can actually boot from the drive then log into the user. If you have enough space on internal you could partition to restore there without polluting your current new install.
    Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions 18. How can I copy my TM backups to a different location?
    I backup to Time Machine but I also use a clone and use it over Time Machine when I'm trying to restore a User like youare trying to do. Hopefully someone else will have a better suggestion other than doing a full restore.

  • Back up problems with Time Machine since I have Mavericks

    Since I upgrade to Mavericks Time Machine is not able to back up my MacBookPro.
    Not only it is slow but it never ends.
    Each time it seems to reach the end of the back up 150 or 200 mb are added to the amount to be saved.
    Without end.
    Before Maevroicks I had Montain Lion and it was fine.

  • Time Machine and clean install

    I made a clean install (Erase HDD -> Install Mac OS X) to my MacBook Pro. All previous attempts to clean my computer from all the junk I had installed on my computer during my studies failed so I decided to make a fresh start.
    I did not use migration assistant after install because I didn't want to get all the preferences from the previous install. What I did, I browsed spesific folder with Time Machine's "Browse other Time Machine Disks" -function.
    The questions are, what happens to my old Time Machine sparsebundle-file if I start backing up again? Will it just add new backup after previous (before clean install) backup, will it destroy all previous backups or will it create new sparsebundle?  Is it even possible to continue backups to the same backup-database?

    Just to make sure I don't lose my previous backups. I have enough space for new backup, so is it possible just to move old sparsebundle-file to a folder so that Time Machine can make new sparsebundle on the root of Time Capsule?

  • Time Machine and clean install to Lion

    Completed a clean install of Lion on my 2009 IMac. But Time Machine won't recognize any backups prior to the clean install. In other words, when you enter Time Machine, it only goes back to the time you actually did the clean install. How do I gain access to the indexing for backups from my former system? The data on the backup drive should all be intact.

    See Pondini's TM FAQs for starters.

  • Cannot restore iPhoto Library from Time Machine after clean install

    I was experiencing various problems with my MBP and wiped the hard drive after meticulously backing up everything with Time Machine, or manually. I reinstalled everything. I was relying on Time Machine to restore my photos and events in iPhoto. When I select "Browse Backups" in iPhoto, I can see all of my backups, but can select none of them. Any ideas to save a decade worth of photos?

    Hi a:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    I am preaching, but +"wiping/erasing a HD"+ should be reserved for true disasters. That is a Windows process.
    Now, trying to help (I treasure my own photos - a lot), go to your home folder (~pictures). If something called iPhoto library is there, highlight it, open Time Machine, and then restore it.
    If that does not fix the problem, try posting in the iPhoto forum. There are some real experts with iPhoto problems that may be able to help.

  • Problem trying to do a clean install of Yosemite

    A friend of mine installed windows 8.1 on my macbook but he somehow managed to wipe out the original yosemite installation and now when I try to reboot it and install from a usb stick windows goes right through it and I believe it doesn't even recognize the usb, anyone know of anything I could do? Like formating the windows 8 and installing the OS X? Please help

    If you have access to another Mac computer, go to the App Store, sign in with your Apple ID, and download Yosemite.
    You can make a bootable USB stick to install using this free program which will do all the work for you.
    Bootable USB Flash Drive – Diskmaker X
    Go back to your computer, boot off that Disk, and reinstall Yosemite on the Yosemite partition.

  • How to do a clean install go yosemite and then just install certain files, apps, documents, phopt's, etc...from time machine backup?

    How to do a clean install of yosemite (have Mavericks 10.9.5 now) and then just install certain files, apps, documents, phopt's, etc...from time machine backup?

    Do a backup before doing anything.
    If you want to make a clean install of Mountain Lion, boot into the Recovery Volume (command - R) on a restart, use Disk Utility to Verify/Repair  the disk and run Repair Permissions. Then erase the hard drive using Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format using the Options button. Reinstall Yosemite. Restart normally and test. Use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant to import what you want.

    I did all the things you suggested & it is running much better!  After that, in doing the permissions repair with Disk Utility there were some to repair initially, but in running again there were none to repair.
    Font Book validate initially showed several fonts with major problems but after restoring fonts & doing the start up in Safe Mode & restarting, there were no major errors but still 9 with minor problems.
    Are there additional things that I should now do?
    Linc, I thank you soooooooo much!

  • Problem with Time Machine Backup or Maybe Not Time Machine

    The problem manifests after a Time Machine backup.
    I have an iMac 24-inch, Early 2008. iMac 8,1
    Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM.
    Last week I purchased two  4-Terabyte G-technology G-Drives. Each drive is equip with FireWire 800 and USB 3.0/2.0. In general use they seem to work fine on the iMac.
    I designated one drive as a Time Machine Volume. This is where the problem happens.
    Time Machine will do the initial backup just fine. Then it runs once per hour with no problem. Intermittently however, Time Machine will fail and report :
    “Time Machine couldn’t complete the backup to “hard disk name”.
    Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder.”
    Interestingly enough if I try to open a folder on the Time Machine volume using the Finder I get:
    “The operation can’t be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code -50).
    If I try to eject the volume I get the irksome “Cannot eject volume because it’s currently in use by one or more programs.”
    To resolve this I’ve tried everything, from the banal verifying permissions, to swapping the two G-Drives around, swapping out all the cables, etc.. When the error occurs I go into the shell and check with lsof and always find no software apparently holding or using that volume.
    Very frustrating
    I can force eject the volume, then remount the volume and things are back to normal. Same with restarting.
    This happened under OS X Mountain Lion and is now happening under a clean install of Mavericks.
    I thought that even though I don’t see any MDS  related processes using the drive, it might be spotlight, so I told spotlight not to index the volume. Problem still happens.
    I’ve found that one person had almost this exact same problem at:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4756742
    His solution turned out to be replacing the G-Drive with another brand new G-Drive.
    Unfortunately, I cannot return the drives to the Apple store because the boxes were tossed out. I also don’t relish trying to explain that the drives work just fine until some glitch that occurs either just before or just after a Time Machine backup.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    You can also contact G-Drive while the drives are under warranty (one year I believe).
    I have the same problem using Time Machine with the 2T G-Drive and my MacBook Pro. G-Tech emailed me a Firmware Update Utility app and, when that didn't solve the error message problem, they sent me a replacement drive and new cables, twice. The problem persisted; I get one or two backups each day and then the error message. I also can't copy anything to the drive and have to force eject it, so G-Tech suggested I see how well it worked with the USB cable.
    Time Machine works flawlessly with the USB cable and the G-Drive, so G-Tech suggested it is a problem with my Firewire 800 port. I worked with Apple Care over the phone, doing all the tests suggested in Eric's post - testing with Disk Utility, Time Machines interface with my User Accounts, the Operating System, then resetting Time Machine, etc. and then I took it to the Genius Bar so they could run the tests themselves. All looked like it should be fine (but they were using a 1T G-Drive and all testing was done within 30 minutes)...when I got home, after two good backups, I got the error message again.
    Apple Care finally suggested I make a Genius Bar appointment and sit at the store working with my MacBook, the G-Drive and Time Machine running until I got the error message, to prove the only thing left that could possibly be the cause of the problem, is the port.  I did this last Wednesday.
    It is 9 days later and I got my computer back this afternoon...the logic board was replaced because the Firewire 800 port is attached to it...I got my first Time Machine back up at 5:34pm...and the error message again at 7:34pm.
    The only solution, it seems, is to use the USB cable instead of Firewire. USB and Thunderbolt seem to be the direction Apple is taking, which is why so many people have been posting about this problem, here and elsewhere, with no real solutions from Apple. See this article:  http://www.infoworld.com/t/mac-laptop/how-cope-the-end-of-firewire-205957
    I hope the USB works for you too.

  • Do I need to pause Time machine when I install Aperture 3 ?

    do I need to pause Time machine when I install Aperture 3 ?

    If I had to anticipate when TM was about to run and then quit Aperture I'd really be disinclined to use it.
    Not always, but you have to give TimeMachine a chance to make at least once a full backup. If Aperture or iPhoto are open, when Time Machine is running, you will only get incremental backups. I cannot find the corresponding Aperture document right now, but see this:
    iPhoto '11: Back up your iPhoto library
    Important:   Time Machine can’t do a full backup of your iPhoto library when iPhoto is open. To ensure that Time Machine does a complete backup of your library, quit iPhoto periodically before backing up.
    To restore photos, quit iPhoto, open the folder containing your iPhoto library, and then open Time Machine.
    I noticed recently, that TM had never made a full backup of one of my Aperture libraries and was a bit scared, because I am relying heavily on TM. So I try to remember to quit Aperture before connecting my backup drive. It is not dramatic, if I do not do it everytime, but I make sure, I get a full backup of each library at least once, after I created it.
      Early versions of TM had a problem where if Aperture was running and TM did its backup there was a chance the whole library would be backed up rather then just the changes but I thought this was fixed in later versions of TM and/or Aperture.
    You are referring to this, right?
    Mac OS X v10.5, 10.5.1, 10.5.2: Time Machine may back up the entire Aperture Library each time
    In Mac OS X v10.5 through 10.5.2, Time Machine may perform a full backup (rather than incremental) of the Aperture Library, resulting in heavier-than-expected disk usage for Time Machine backups.
    This can happen if the Aperture library is included in Time Machine backups and a backup occurs while Aperture is running.  In this situation, Time Machine excludes the Aperture library from a backup while the application is running, but backs up the entire library once Aperture quits, rather than just the changes since the previous backup.
    Resolution
    Download and install Mac OS X v10.5.3 or later. Afterwards, when you use Time Machine it will perform incremental backups as expected.

  • Slow backup (and spotlight problems) after time machine restore

    Hi All,
    After having some shaky moments with my macbook pro's internal hard drive, I have now installed a new one. I am running the latest version of 10.6.8.
    The machine is running fine after a restore from my Time machine backup, but there are a few problems:
    1) Time machine is now making a new backup - it looks like it wants to do a complete backup, which is ok as I have the space. However, after about 30 mins it has completed 156k and is now running at about 1k a second (or less).
    2) Spotlight is reindexing, but appears to be stuck on "Estimating indexing time".
    3) I tried opening mail, and it said it had to convert my mailbox - it got part way through the number of messages and stopped. I force quite, I'll try that one again later.
    Any ideas for 1) and 2) above? I can't see any odd looking messages in the console...
    Cheers

    So... thought I'd update this since it may help someone else later...
    The time machine backup completed fine in the end - it looked like it wanted to do a complete backup but I think it just did a delta in the end.
    The spotlight reindex ran for about another 6 hours, judging by the console messages.
    However, now I'm trying to run mail - and it's stuck on importing the mailbox - it got to 14157 of 57904 and stopped there. The "time remaining" is increasing by about 5 minutes every minute....
    I've seen the following message in the console, which I also saw while it was trying to do the spotlight index last night:
    NSDataMessageStore: couldn't find body
    Anyway, I'll let it run and see what happens...
