Recovering notes from time machine backup

I am trying to recover notes from a time machine backup using the 'go to folder' option in 10.9 using the following path: /External/Backups.backupdb/user’s MacBook Pro/2014-10-29-143816/Macintosh HD/Users/user
The is no containers for me to access the notes.  What am i missing here?
Thank you

Try doing this, then Time Machine.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.

  • How to restore a deleted iCloud note from time machine backup?

    The short of it... one of my kids decided they didn't need certain notes, therefore deleted them!!!! 
    (my fault i did not have notes/synced/off on new device!),
    but they are important and iCloud is synced across all devices and those notes are gone. 
    Wasn't sure if a device/ restore from back up would work - didn't.
    Tried some of the Apple Communities/ going to lib/ turn off wifi/ move the 3 files to desktop/ move back to lib file, nothing. 
    Could I get some 'really specific' step by steps?  seems others have had success, and maybe i'm in TM when I should be on my Mac or vice versa?! or in the wrong library?
    My TM backups just does not let me get anywhere to restore those deleted notes.
    Any help would be wonderful!
    Thanks
    Thinking Apple should have given us an iCloud safety net or at least allow TM/ iCloud to be userfriendly.

    I used this to restore my deleted notes from Time Machine, hope this helps others
    closed Notes,
    turned WiFi off,
    entered finder/go+option/ to 'get to library':  /Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Data/Library/Notes/
    entered TM and selected the 3 files/ hit restore/ keep both (just to make sure, then I deleted the newer file, not the 'restored' file when this worked out)
    opened notes and my deleted notes were back so I copied my notes into pages as a backup,
    turned on WiFi and the notes disappeared!
    replaced my restored notes by copy/pasting my backups into notes/iCloud.... 
    notes/mac would not show across iCloud.... don't remeber this being an issue prior to Mavericks when 'all' notes were selected?
    Apple needs to hear from us so they can fix glitches like this.  TM was created for instances like this, hopefully this is just an oversite.  Pass this along to Apple Feedback/iCloud/bug.  If enough of us flag such issues, hopfully it's addressed on the next update.
    Dear Apple, this should be much easier than it is. We should be able to open Notes, go into Time Machine, and restore anything regardless if it's on my Mac or on the cloud.

  • App to retrieve iOS Notes from Time Machine backups

    I am looking for a suggestion for an app which will retrieve iOS notes.
    I deleted some notes around November, and want to try to retrieve them.
    My thought is that given that I backed up my iPad  to my Mac, I could recover my iPad backup from last October and extract the notes?
    Some of the apps out there let you extract material from the *current* iOS backups on your Mac. But I want to extract the notes from an old iTunes backup, which now only exists on my Time Machine backup.
    So some of the apps have a UI which presents all of the current backups in the window and you choose the one you want. I need an app which lets me browse to my time machine backup drive and select a very old backup (no longer on the Mac or in iTunes).
    Is this possible?
    Thanks.

    You can restore one or more of these ios backups from your Time Machine volume, perhaps restoring them to an external drive or a special folder, and then there are various programs that can work on those files from your hard drive. Another one (which is a bit expensive but does work) is Dr. Fone wondershare

  • Can't recover iMac from Time Machine backup

    Hi there
    I need your help! My photos, music, videos, and other data is gone.. Especially the photos i would like to have back, they were stored in my Aperture library (about 13.000 pictures).
    For a few days ago my iMac (with Mountain Lion) wouldn't start, just showed the white screen with the 'thinking-circle' - no further… But I wasn't worried , because I had a Time Machine backup. So I restarted, holding down the option key. Then I chose to restore from the backup i had made. It started, but there wasn't going much time before it stopped, said there was an error with the backup.… When it started up again, tried again it said the same. So from there I couldn't boot the iMac, and i couldn't restore it with the Time Machine backup.
    Then I made an fresh install of the OSX Mountain Lion on an other external hdd (from my Macbook Pro). I connected the external hdd to the iMac and booted from there. And then in the disk utility i could see the original hdd in the iMac. It sais - Capacity: 999,35 GB - Used: 733,3 MB. So it almost just erased/formatted… The backup hdd's capacity is: 2 TB - Used: 566 GB
    Then I took my Macbook Pro and connected the backup hdd (2 TB) to it. But it didn't show me any hdd in the Finder. I opened the disk utility and there it was! The hdd showing as the other one i had connected. But the partition is grayed out. So I guess it was right that there is an error on the hdd. So i selected the hdd and pressed 'Repair disk'. It completed and said it was ok. Then i selected the partition and pressed 'Repair disk'. It took very much longer time (1-2 hours), and then it told me that it wasn't able to repair. 'Mac OS X can't repair the disk "GlennovitS 2TB". You can still open or copy files on the disk, but you can't save changes to files on the disk.  Back up the disk and reformat it as soon as you can.'
    But anyway the partition now was showing with black text, and therefore I could see it in the Finder. And opening it in the Finder showed me one folder: 'Backups.backupdb'. I can open that, and see whats in the folders (it is just VERY slow opening. Can hear the hdd working but it takes so long time to actually see the results.). So i can see the different dates from my backups, open and see whats backuped. And i can look through the folders and find the folder where my Aperture library is stored, and its there! So i copied it and tried to paste it to my other external hdd. But it wouldn't. It showed me the error: 'The Finder can't complete the operation because some data can't be read or written (Error code -36).'
    I have googlet a lot, and tried a lot now. Both the hdd's is Mac OS (Journaled) format. There is space enough on the other hdd. I have tried using the 'dot_clean' operation in Terminal, to the library and to the folder that its located in, and then try copying again - still no success. Also tried to copy through Terminal with some 'sudo cp…' . Also I tried to remove the file-extension from the library (.aplibrary) so it should become an ordinary folder, but in the info of the file, the field with name is grayed out, can't edit in there. Also tried to compres the library or the folder its in, to a ZIP file, but it can't do that either. Tried to use a program called 'JFileRecovery' but didn't work either. Then I connected it to a Windows 7 pc, but it can't see the hdd at all.. I have also tried to connect the backup hdd to the iMac (booted from the clean installed external hdd) instead of the Macbook Pro, but it makes no difference.
    If you need info about my setup it is:
    iMac 27" 3,1 GHz - i5 - 12 GB ram - 1 TB hdd
    Time Machine Backup drive: WD external - 2 TB
    Second external: iomega 1 TB
    Extra boot hdd (with the clean Mountain Lion install) : iomega 250 GB
    Macbook Pro 15" - 2,53 GHz core2duo - 4 GB ram - 250 GB hdd
    Aperture file size: 163,29 GB
    My iTunes library was about 2.000 songs and 100 videos + app's + podcast… (haven't tried copying that yet, only the images because they are my main issue…)
    If you have read all this, thank you for that. Hope you see my frustration and hopefully have some ideas of what to do?.. Recover from the original hdd - recover backup hdd - or fix the files / copy them from the corrupted backup somehow? Please help...
    From Glenn :-)

    If there is any chance of recovery at all your best bet is Prosoft Data Rescue 3 . There is a free trial to see if it can recover what you need. But don't do another process on that drive until you've downloaded and run it.
    That means that ideally you should use another bootable drive to download and run Data Rescue. Or booted from another Mac in firewire mode. Also, there is always the option of ordering or going to the store to  purchase the DVD. Then running from the optical drive.

  • How do I recover files from time machine backup?

    I need to recover my entire system from my time machine backup.
    I'm following the help center instructions.
    The last step is step 6.
    It says, "Select the date and time of the backup you want to restore, and then follow the onscreen instructions."
    Problem is, no onscreen instructions appear.
    What am I supposed to do to actually run the backup?
    thanks!

    While in Time Machine, press the key combination shift-command-C. The front window will show all mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible. Select the one you want and navigate to the files you want to restore.

  • Recover "recents" from Time Machine backup?

    How can I recover my FaceTime recents list or call history from a Time Machine backup?
    Thanks

    Quit FaceTime if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return. A folder should open. If it does, look for a file with a long name that begins "com.apple.FaceTime". Enter Time Machine and restore it from a snapshot.

  • Recovering email from Time Machine backup

    Hi - for whatever reason, the contents of my inbox (app. 20,000 messages, 1.5 gigs) were lost over the weekend. I looked on my TM, and I think I see them sitting there in a folder called "archived email" (it's a .mbox file). What do I do now? I tried "Import Mailboxes>mbox file" but it says that there are no valid mboxes. Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thx
    G

    If you've got the Mail folder backed up, here's what I would do.
    Take a look at all of your accounts in the preferences, screen shots would be good.
    Delete the com.apple.mail.plist file from your user/Library/Preferences folder. Plist files contain all of the app preferences. Unfortunately, Apple decided to build the entire Mail folder hierarchy into the plist file instead of a separate file. So, if it gets corrupted, you have to carefully recreate all accounts so that the new plist file looks just like the old one, account-wise.
    Re-create your accounts with the same info you used before. Restart Mail and it should see everything in the Mail Folder.
    If you still don't get everything back, try rebuilding the mailboxes. If that fails, try to import all of your old email folders using Import Mailboxes…>Mail for Mac OS X option. If you point it to the Mail folder it will import all the messages. I'm not sure how it decides where to put them. If you just point to the Mail folder, you may get all of your accounts into one folder. If you point it to a particular mbox folder, you may be able to import each account separately using multiple imports and keep them separated. I don't know if it will keep folder structures.

  • Recovering iPhoto from Time Machine - Project is not recovered, the book is

    Having lost a book in iPhoto, I recovered iPhoto from Time Machine. The Project containing the book was there, but the pictures in the book were not. The pictures are in the photos section, but not in the book. I do not want to have to reload the pictures one by one. Any suggestions. Looks like a defect in Time Machine
    Richard

    I just recovered a library with a couple of books in them and all photos were in the book. You might try recovering a different backup of the same library. Go backward from the time of your last attempt and then, if necessary, forward. If all fail then you've got an problem with TM and that library. Check to see if other files can be recovered satisfactorily. If you use iWeb try recovering your domain file from a time back (select the option to keep both so you don't lose your work to date).
    It might be a little late, i.e. the horse is out of the barn, but you might consider using a separate library for your books. That provides a couple of benefits: 1 - working in your primarary library, deleting files, etc. will have no effect on your book; 2 - it's easy to backup and archive the book for ordering additional copies in the future. Old Toad's Tutorials #9 and 9a describe two different methods. I prefer #9a.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: iPhoto 8's new option in it's rebuild library window, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

  • Not enough space on my new SSD drive to import my data from time machine backup, how can I import my latest backup minus some big files?

    I just got a new 256GB SSD drive for my mac, I want to import my data from time machine backup, but its larger than 256GB since it used to be on my old optical drive. How can I import my latest backup keeping out some big files on the external drive?

    Hello Salemr,
    When you restore from a Time Machine back up, you can tell it to not transfer folders like Desktop, Documents. Downloads, Movies, Music, Pictures and Public. Take a look at the article below for the steps to restore from your back up.

  • Disk Repair notified me it could not repair the HD.  Iam to reformat the disk and restore backed up files.  OS Utilities give me a "Restore From Time Machine Backup" option.  I have not reformatted the disk;  does this restore option do both?

    Disk Repair reported that it could not repair the HD Disk.  I am to reformat the disk and restore backed up files. OSX Utilities give me a choice of restoring from time machine backup (which I have on MyPassport) but no information on reformatting the disk, which I assume I have to do first.  How do I reformat the HD ...or does the restore from Time Machine do both things?

    Boot OS X Recovery and use Disk Utility.
    If Disk Utility reported the disk cannot be repaired though, you should replace it with a new one.

  • Restored system from Time Machine backup disk but the system could not start-up

    On MacBook Pro early 2008, restored the entire system from Time Machine backup disk to the entire disk.
    The previous system on the backup disk had FileVault turned on.
    The restore completed successfully and I was prompted to restart the system via the new restored system disk.
    I heard the normal start-up sound, then the Apple logo, but it stuck at the logo screen. And the cooling fan run at almost full speed?
    I have been waiting for a few hours, guessing it might FileVault the disk.
    Finally I have to shutdown the machine as it stuck at the logo screen forever.
    Anyone has the same issue? Any ideas?

    BTW, I also tried Repair the system disk, Fix permissions via Disk Utility.
    I guess I must lose some files either during the backup or the restore.

    Guitar21,
    your MacBook Pro has booted into its Recovery mode. From the OS X Utilities menu, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Does it get to the login screen now?

  • I'm having a problem with logging into a FileVault-protected user account after restoring from Time Machine backup.

    Hi all,
    My computer had been running really slowly for a while, so I decided to erase the whole hard drive and reinstall the operating system, and then I was going to restore the files I cared about from Time Machine. The main account, which had all my documents and photos, was FileVault-protected. The last thing I did before erasing the hard drive was to run one last Time Machine backup. As far as I remember, I always ran Time Machine backups with the FileVaulted user logged in.
    I don't remember whether I was using FileVault 1 or 2. I had been using FileVault 1, but I installed Lion as soon as it came out and I thought I had migrated to FileVault 2 at that point.
    Once I erased the hard drive and reinstalled the operating system, I browsed the Time Machine disk and, within the Users folder, there was no folder for the main user account. When I tried to reinstall everything by restoring from Time Machine backup, I'd get the option for all the user accounts, but when I tried to log in with the main one I'd get the dreaded "You are unable to log in to the FileVault user account "User" at this time. Log in failed because an error occurred." Finally, when attempting to restore from the Time Machine backup again, I noticed something strange: After the computer got to about 10% done restoring, it declared itself completed successfully and rebooted.
    I've tried a number of tips that came up from questions about similar issues on the Apple support forum, but had no luck. Is there any way to get these files back? Did they ever even get backed up?
    Thanks.

    I can't find it! not sure what's going on but the only folder shown is the " Shared" folder.
    Did you have only the one user account? If there were others, they should also be in the "Users" folder. You probably won't have access to the files inside them, but they should be there.
    From what can make out, it looks like it's not backed up any of the files for the filevault account. Can't see user folder when looking through previous backups in Time Machine galaxy view.
    Are you doing that from a Finder window set to your internal HD, or your computer name? It should look something like this (with the Finder in List view):
    |
    |
    I'd been logging out and backing up manually on a regular basis.
    Scheduled backups should run normally; but they won't back up the File Vault sparse bundle, nor will any run manually.
    The only time it's backed-up is when you actually log out.
    You should have seen this window on logout:
    |
    |
    followed by this one:
    |
    |
    If you didn't see the second one, or cancelled it, the account wasn't backed-up.

    Unfortunately yes.
    Also run the Cleaner Tool prior to reinstalling
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Restoring from Time Machine backups invariably breaks the activation mechanism (Error 150:30) and there's no easy way to fix a 150:30 error other than via re-installing.

  • Imac won't restore from time machine backup after HD (hard drive) recall replacement

    I have an imac bought in 2011, running Snow Leopard.  It required an HD replacement due to the 1 TB Seagate recall - the replacement was done by a certified Apple repair station yesterday.  Before the guy left he started a backup/restore from my latest time machine backup set.  It failed.  I attempted it two times and got error messages that it failed and the computer needed to be restarted to try it again.  No luck.  I called the guy back and he told me to call Apple Care.  Not thrilled about that response since the guy had just left my house I did what he told me to do.  (A quick sideline here:  I recognize that a time machine backup should be no big deal and SHOULD work everytime, but it doesn't.  It irks me that Apple is replacing my HD through no fault of mine and yet they don't allow the restore of data to be a "covered" expense in this process - this isn't just because this was an authorized repair guy - the Apple store would have done the same). 
    Back to the issue.  When I called apple care they pretty much had me try the same thing again with an earlier back up set.  To my knowledge, it didn't work.  I say this because it looked like it was working and when I came back to the imac later, it had restarted and once again booted to the OSX install.  (The boot disc is still in the imac).  When I tried to boot from another location, one did not show up to boot from so I assumed that the data didn't transfer and it forced another restart.  So, I tried something else.  I tried to re-install the snow leopard OSX without using the restore function.  That appeared to work and then when the machine restarted it asked if I had another mac and I chose the option to get the files/apps/etc. from my time machine backup.  The computer chose what I can only assume is the most recent backup set (It chose what I know to be a subfolder that appears under the dated backup folder - Macintosh HD--which btw is confusing seeing as that's always the name of the HD on the imac).  I again stepped away from the computer so it could do its thing for two hours.  When I returned, I was back to the MAC OSX screen that asks you to choose a language.  There were no more options to choose DISK UTILITY or RESTORE FROM BACKUP, etc.  When I clicked on English it took me right back into the screen where you say whether you have another Apple that you want to transfer data from.  I realized that the imac must have restarted and I assumed maybe it was because the boot disk was still in - except how do you get the disc to eject?  I also initially assumed that the backup had somehow failed again and triggered a restart.  I tried to choose the option to just set up the machine without transferring data and when I got to the choose a name for your HOME folder message I tried to enter the same name I had it as before and it wouldn't allow me to do so, saying that that name was already in use.  I also tried a different name and that didn't work either - got the same message (I assume if it is not the same name that it won't sync up with the time machine data from the backup set).  So, I almost tried the "select time machine backup" option again until I looked at my HD space.  Clearly, there is space that has been used.  HD space was 997 at the start and now it's 636. My initial thought is to somehow get back into the setup area where I can use disc utility and erase the whole thing and then start over but 1) I don't think it's going to work even if I could get back there 2) I have no idea how to get this thing to reboot into that mode 3) I can't get the boot CD out to even try to restart to see if this thing did what it was supposed to, SO NOW I AM TOTALLY STUCK!  I have not called Apple Care back because quite frankly they were useless the first time.  I have a call into the repair guy but who knows how much help he will be.  In the mean time, I have a million things to do and a computer that isn't working - Whoever said Apples never have issues needs to be seriously censored!
    A few other notes:  I use Time Machine Editor to run my backups weekly.  It was set up that way from the get go by an Apple rep who came to my house to get us up and running.  Editor should not effect the way that time machine does its work, so I doubt there is relevance but thought it worth mentioning. 
    One other note is that the Apple Care agent tried to have me do something called a "Source" something or other from the disk utility screen but when she realized that my backup file (shown by date) contained many other sub files (11-27-12/MacintoshHD/MyNamesIMAC/etc.), it was not possible to run this operation - thus we aborted.  Sorry I don't remember the name of the process and unfortunately now can't access that option to go find it. 
    If you can help me, I would be eternally grateful!  I am open to having a phone conversation if you are willing to give me your email to mail you my number. I have so much work to do this week and this was the last thing I needed.  Did I mention this was supposed to be EASY?
    I used to be quite the geek with my PC - still on the learning curve with the mac but not enjoying it.  I am fairly tech savvy and I can follow instructions for a step by step solution if you've got one. 

    I got a recall and had the drive replaced. I have retored 3 timesa dn even had apple do the job and it is still not right. I still can't get a simple ghost of the data from time machineback tot he new drive. 
    This is Apple's explaination as taken from their web page.:
    Restoring your entire system from a backup
    If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
    With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Recovery system (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility.
    Note: If "You can't restore   this backup because it was created by a different model of Mac" appears  when restoring  a backup that was  made on a different Mac, follow the onscreen instructions.
    I even posted this information on the community and apple removed it... because they don't like the:
    Off-topic or non-technical posts
    Non-constructive rants or complaints
    But here is my experieince:
    Take in 27iMac running 10.6.8, 5-7 days, what a joke, my boss will be happy to pay for a week without working. Finally get, "if you have TM back up, 3 days." Get machine back with 10.6.3, hit the R recovery, click TM back up, runs for 2 hours, reboots, looks great. Box up take back to office... update to install - OH NO, still running 10.6.3. Updates crash with no specific error on install, BUG PROBELM, nothing runs.
    Call Apple... after hours, tells me to boot using 10.6.2 disk, wipe, reinstall OS, udate to 10.6.8, THEN do the restore. GREAT! Only thing 10.6.2 DVD won't read... now back on phone... take back to the store, Genius says, he'll ix it just like it was. PROMISES it'll be fixed.
    Pick up next day, supposedly, booted to disk, wiped drive, reinstalled, updated to 10.6.8 and THEN did the RIGHT restore... Looks GREAT... apps run and 10.6.8 OS. Back to the office... NOT RUNNING right!!!... fonts messed up, drop box app needs new install, cocktail needs upgrade, Fetch not working, memorized paths gone... back ups locked out of permissions... ***!!
    4 hours on phone with apple and still no rsolution - to missing "settings". Seems there are THREE WAYS TO RESTORE (according to apply tech)... Running MIGRATE ASSISTANT and being able to choose your files, including settings, "R" RESTORE after they load a new OS... or NOW WAITING for them to send me a bootable 10.6.3 disk and then boot from disk, w/o installing OS and doing a restore from TM. I think this is done via the disk Utilties application.
