Restoring backup not working

I recently made a backup of all my photos to an external hard drive. When I went into Photoshop to work with some photos in editor, I receive the message that files are missing. I try to restore the back up from the external hard drive and photoshop becomes unresponsive and I have to force quit. Please help, new to Photoshop and I'm afraid I've lost all of my photos!!!!

Don't panic !
There is no necessary reason you have lost your photos.
We need some details of what you have done.
First, which Elements version ?
When you had the message there were missing files, was there only some, or many, or all files missing ?
Do you remember moving, deleting or renaming files or folders ? (It's easy to do so without noticing it when working in the explorer.)
About your backup : was it made from the organizer menu, or with an external software ?
Did you try the option to repair and optimize the catalog before trying to restore ? That can help, and does no harm.

Not able to sign into Blackberry Protect. Backup and Restore function not working. "Your device isn't associated with a Blackberry ID"

Not able to sign into Blackberry Protect. Backup and Restore function not working. Message is: "Your device isn't associated with a Blackberry ID." My Blackberry Messenger and Blackberry World is working fine so I am sure its not an ID issue on the phone. I can sign into Link, Blackberry.com and Protect. I see my device in Protect but cannot send messages or view it on a map. Times out with cannot reach device message. BB Protect on Device has a swirling circle beside the on/of switch. Cannot turn off.
I have deleted Link and re-installed.
I have reset phone to default(factory) and signed in.
OS level is 10.2.1.3062
BB Link is 1.2.3.56
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I managed to figure this out myself. I had to delete the device from the Blackberry Protect website. protect.blackberry.com. I wiped my device again and signed in with my Blackberry ID. I dont know if the step of wiping was necessary as I did not try my backup with the current configuration on the device following the delete. Restore is in progress for me!

HT1766 I backed up to my PC and attempted restore but I keep getting an error message that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available." I have a 32GB iPhone; only 13GB used!!! HELP! iCloud backup/restore did not work

I backed up to my PC and attempted restore but I keep getting an error message that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available." I have a 32GB iPhone; only 13GB used!!! HELP! iCloud backup/restore did not work either! How can I resolve this problem to restore from back up.

If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades.

New Computer--Backup not working well (Help!)

Hi All,
Have my CDs for the backup of my iTunes Library and Playlists. It is not copying over my playlists. The files are being sent to my C Driver, but the playlists are not there. Is that normal?
I also do not see all my apps on the new itunes.
Help!
Thanks

In my opinion, the itunes backup to CD/DVD is very poor. Plus, if you take the trouble to test it and try to restore before you actually need to restore, you might find that the restore does not work.
My advice is to buy an external hard drive and use that for backups.
Assuming you have the default iTunes setup, all you need to do to backup is copy the iTunes folderand all its subfolders to the exHD.
This will copy the itunesLibrary.itl file (database with play lists, ratings, playcounts), the Mobile Applications and Artwork folder, and all your artist/albums.
If you have a special iTunes setup, then you need to figure out yourself what folders you need to back up.

DB Restore does not work on MSSMS 2014 under WIndows8.1

When attempting to restore a DB which was backed up on a different machine (same names but SQL EXPRESS 2012) under MS 2014 running on WIndows 8.1 into a SQL Express DB, the following happens:
1. Open Restore task
2. Select Device to get 'Select backup devices"
3. Invoke "Add" and expect to see a browser. Instead, a backup file location is indicated and no browsing is permitted in the "Locate Backup File" Even when the path and file names are just typed in, the Restore will not work.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
SQL Server does not allow you to restore or attach a database from a higher version of SQL Server to a lower version of SQL Server in your case from SQL 2014 to SQlL 2012, however you can generate script in SQL 2014 and execute it on SQL 2012.

Why is Time machine backup not working after Mavericks upgrade?

Why is Time machine backup not working after Mavericks upgrade?

I had the same problem due to the Fire Wire port. Apple tested it told me it is OK!, I tried a new cable, and have tested both ports on my back up device. I find it strange that as soon as I installed Mavericks. The drive does work using USB. It could be a coincidence, I don't absolutely know at this point, my back up drive ports could stop working, but I doubt it!

itunes restore did not work what do i do now

Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

What if you have a situation where Restore did not work. I do. The ipad mini says it is disabled, connect to itunes. When connected, it says that it is locked! I have tried using Recovery/Restore but after it completed, the ipad mini still malfunctions. It does not allow you to start the device. The slide image keeps dancing around the screen. The opening page keeps changing in size and the keyboard types on its own! What can be done to fix this????????

Maybe a reset would help, to be followed by trying the recovery again.
To reset, hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Then do the recovery.
If this doesn't solve it, I recommend visiting an Authorized Apple Service Center.

System restore is not working

System restore is not working for my Itouch. I am getting a picture of a white cord and and arrow pointing to Itunes logo... any suggestions?

It sounds like there is definitely a system problem. The whole OS seems to be messed up.
Do you have an MS Windows 7 disk?
In such case you could start the Windows 7 Startup Repair process using the MS Win 7 disk.
Boot from Win 7 disk, after the temporal files has been load, you should get and window where you could choose between the OS installation and other options. The second option called Repair you Computer is the one which would be needed to get the system repaired.
Then wait for System Recovery Options to locate Windows 7 on the HDD.
Then choose the Windows 7 installation and then the next window should appear providing the option to repair the system Startup Repair
But in case this workaround would not help you, the system should be reinstalled once again using Toshiba Recovery disk

Backup not working for File Server

We have System Center 2012 Sp1 installed with Agent Version : 4.1.3453.0
We are protecting File Server which is member in DFS. We have Volume of More than 2TB and which is spanned accross multiple VHDs.
I am facing problem with Backup not working and DPMRA service is getting stopped unexpectedly. When i try to create recovery point manually i don't get option to syncrhonize the changes. 1st and 3rd option is geryed out.
I am getting Error on DPM as Affected area:   E:\
Description:   The replica of Volume E:\ on<ServerName> is inconsistent with the protected data source. All protection activities for data source will fail until the replica is synchronized with consistency check. You can recover data
from existing recovery points, but new recovery points cannot be created until the replica is consistent.
For SharePoint farm, recovery points will continue getting created with the databases that are consistent. To backup inconsistent databases, run a consistency check on the farm. (ID 3106)
   DPM failed to communicate with the protection agent on <Server> because the agent is not responding. (ID 43 Details: Internal error code: 0x8099090E)
   More information
Recommended action:   1) Check recent records from the DPMRA source in the Application Event Log on FUSE.win2k.internal to find out why the agent failed to respond.
2) Make sure that the DPM server is remotely accessible from <Server>
3) If a firewall is enabled on the DPM server, make sure that it is not blocking requests from <Server>
4) Restart the DPM Protection Agent service on <Server>. If the service fails to start, re-install the protection agent.
   Synchronize with consistency check.
   Run a synchronization job with consistency check...

HI Chris,
Sharing files using Bluetooth
To share files using Bluetooth, you first need to make sure Bluetooth is turned on, and then use Bluetooth File Exchange to send a file.
To turn on Bluetooth:
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Bluetooth.
Select the On checkbox. To allow other Bluetooth enabled devices to “discover” your computer and send files, also select the Discoverable checkbox.
Select “Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar” so you can quickly send files and perform other actions using the Bluetooth status menu in the menu bar.
To send files using Bluetooth:
Choose Send File from the Bluetooth status menu in the menu bar.
If the Bluetooth menu isn’t visible, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Bluetooth, and select “Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar.”
In the window that appears, select the file you want to send and click Send.
Select the device you want to send the file to and click Send.
If you don’t see the device you want to send the file to, make sure the device has Bluetooth turned on and is discoverable.
You do not need File Sharing turned on for Bluetooth technology.
Another way to share files between two Macs is How to use Firewire Target Disk Mode

Hello, all of a sudden I fell down my system and completely erased all bookmarks. Your progress with restoration does not work, write me of bookmarks could not be loaded. Please advice on everything because I came and they seriously need it.

Did your computer crash or did Firefox crash causing the loss of the bookmarks?
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

A fair way down that page, Lokesh replies but I don't have any of the software that he mentions in his post. Is anyone able to help?

Hi,
According to the Lokesh's reply, this problem is probably caused by 3rd plugin in Windows Explorer Shell. UAC dialog couldn't be prompt correctly.

Monthly and Yearly backups not working for Protection Group?

Hi
We have a Protection Group with 160 members currently attached to it. The group has the following customized Recovery Points:-
- 1 recovery point every 1 day for the last 2 weeks, 1 recovery point every 1 month for the last 60 months and 1 recovery point every year for the last 5 years.
The schedule is as follows:-
- Every Day at 01:00, Every Month on First Day at 01:00 and Every 12 Months on 01 January at 01:00.
The daily tape backups are working fine without issue but neither the Monthly or Yearly backups are being attempted. We have checked the monthly backups for this issue for the last few months and are unable to see any evidence of the Monthly schedule even
running? This means that we are having to manually label the Daily tapes once a month as Monthly tapes but they will then stay on the Reports for the next 5 years as DPM will constantly request these tapes back.
Are you able to help with this matter?
Not that we really want to do this but if we removed the group completely and re-create it would this cause problems with our restore points?

Hi,
This is a known issue that can occur in all current versions of
DPM including DPM 2012, to correct the condition, you simply need to perform this step. Any time before the next scheduled (monthly or longer) backup, manually update
the long term backup schedule by hitting the MODIFY button. The code that runs when modifying the backup schedule redoes the bacup schedules and it fixes the scheduling issue.
Below is a DPM Power-shell script that will show you the scheduled backups for all recovery goals for all protection groups. You can see the last time each recovery goal ran, and the NEXT run time, so you can monitor
the goals and re-fix them if necessary.
NOTE: It takes about 20-30 minutes before the fixed next run time schedule will be populated after modify the protection group and updating the schedule.
# This script will list all currently scheduled backup to tape jobs #
# It will list scheduled, last run and next run dates #
# Note: The script takes in consideration that the DPM Database was installed locally on its #
# Default instance. If SQL is installed on a different location/instance, edit the line #

I cant seem to get this script to run.. can someone point out what might be missing..
I've tried creating a shortcut like the following as well:

DPM\DPM\bin\dpmcliinitscript.ps1" "C:\Data\scripts\scheduledjobs.ps1"
Start in: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft DPM\DPM\bin\"
If i run as admin in just takes you to a command line prompt in PS..
Any thoughts on what is missing here.. i've modified the ps1 to reflect 2012 in my case.. 2012 R2
DPM
Tech, the Universe, Everything: http://tech-stew.com
Ok, the 1.6 script works.. but only if i run it from the ps1 script file.. by right clicking it and doing the Run with Powershell option (non admin).. my shortcut doesnt work.. same issue.. it just goes to a power shell prompt. The right click and
run is non admin mode as well.
When I run it with the right click it shows no jobs scheduled.. If i look in dpm 2012 r2 i see a yearly tape backup scheduled for today.. the script doesnt show me a way to also get the monthly to appear (i've set the monthly for a day later but it doesnt
appear in the scheduled tasks for next 7 days).. i was under the impression this script would help force the monthly to appear/run.. but even the yearly that does show in DPM scheduled tasks isnt showing up with the script (maybe admin issue?)

SPA122, "Restore Configuration" not working.

Hi,
I can't restore .cfg files on the Config Management menu. The "browse" button
is not active and i can't load a file. The firmware version is 1.3.1. Tested with Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome
Internet Explorer (old V6), same results. I haven't got problems with firmware upgrade or backup configuration menu.
Using Windows XP...
Thanks. (sorry for my poor english)

Well, i saved my configuration with the config manager, do one RESET with the phone (73738#). Logon on the PC with 192.168.15.1 (Yellow LAN port). And the restore configuration is active! But when i restore my .cfg file the SPA122 don't work well. The VoIP line is working but the PC connected to the yellow LAN does not work, can't get IP address (0.0.0.0).
(I reboot PC, SPA and router,same thing).
To reproduce the bug simply put the SPA in Bridge mode in Network service.
My SPA is in bridge mode and got one PC on the yellow LAN port. The SPA122 and the PC got static IP address from the ADSL router in DHCP. SPA -> 192.168.1.70 and the PC -> 192.168.1.64.

XP windows restore does not work yet all is set correctly

XP windows restore function does not work. All the restore points exist with descriptions of the changes that prompted them. It will let me select them (restore points) and restore process will strart but after rebooting it will ultimatly let me know that it could not restore.
Does the Lenovo Restore and Rescue utility disable this function of XP ? ?
Thanks

Well I have a 6460-8WU that came with Vista and I got the downgrade CD set and tried to restore to XP. The first time it said it failed to restore my system, but it seem to have XP and all the applications that I expected to see. Later I had a problem with the Welcome Windows screen being unavailable... used only the Classic Windows Logon, I called Microsoft and they suggested using their system restore.... which didn't work at all... I tried 5 or 6 different backup files from different days and none of them worked. At that point I decided to use the Lenovo downgrade CDs and format the hard drive restoring everything from scratch. It took me a few tries but eventually I did get it to say that it had successfully restored my system. The items I learned from like 4 failed attempts to restore it are this:
1. Don't try to restore it while in the advanced dock.
2. When the restore process says to remove Disk # x and press OK, remove Disk # x-1 (the currently inserted Disk, and insert Disk # x, and then do not press OK until you wait 20 or 30 seconds or until the little icon of a CD that flashes when Windows reads a newly inserted disk has finished. When I tried clicking OK either before I had actually inserted the next CD or too soon after I had inserted the next CD the process went downhill from there and failed to restore properly.
3. When it seemingly has read all the CD's and says it will now start the restoration process, but you are asked to press Next... well firstly there *is* no Next button to press and the other buttons other than Cancel are greyed out. The solution there is to wait, and wait, and wait... so long that you may think the process has failed and the computer is hung... but it is not. Eventually it will continue from that point.
Aside from that, I notice that there is a new version of the Recovery Application on the Support site, but
if you install the latest Rescue and Recovery 4.20.0511.00 in the readme there are 31 "considerations" listed, which are basically conditions under which it does not work properly or as expected, so I won't be trusting it to recover my system. I will make a Paragon Drive Manager image after I get the updates all installed and use that to restore from.
