  • 3.0EA1 is started very slowly.

    SQL Developers started very slowly.
    I install SQL Developer 3 (no JDK included) and I am using it.
    Now both SQL Developers – 2.1.1 and 3 are starting slowly. I tried to change JRE by Java Console with no result.
    Any other application has no such problem.

    There are lots of things that could be the source of this...let's try a few things:
    First, (assuming you have already tried a restart - if not, do that) quit all the applications you can (try going to Force Quit and checking there too), and find your Activity Viewer application (Spotlight search for it is the easiest thing to do but it's in Applications) and launch that. Select all processes, and then look around to see what the % load on the CPU is - Activity Viewer might be using %5 and everything else will be less, for a total load of 10-20% or so. If that's not true look around and see what is using a lot of CPU.
    Next, look at memory use...you should have at least 10%, preferably more like 20% "Free". Too many applications open can use up memory capacity.
    If the computer still seems slow, test internet speed; my favorite is speakeasy.net/speedtest but there are several others. There's some possibility your ISP is limiting speed. The speed test will tell you if you're actually getting what you pay for, but without knowing what service you have, I can't say what "normal" might be. If that doesn't seem right, you need to speak with your ISP.
    Try those and let us know how the results come out; not much the rest of us can do without a little more in the facts-and-data category.

  • The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features.

    I am trying to set up timeMachine on my new mac book pro over a regular home network on a shared network drive. I have tried everything but I keep getting "The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features." I am on lion with the lateset unpdate (10.7.4). I have even tried creating sparebundles on from tutorial that I have found online, but non of the hacks that I have tried seemed to work. Have anyone figured out a way around this? If so, can you share, it will be greatful. I could just buy the time capsule that apple sells but I already have a 2TB internal HDD in an old pc that's hosting my file server so no need for the time capsule hardware. Let me know if there is a way around this thank.

    Not just any NAS.  It has to support the communications protocols used by Time Machine (some involving security, some about error detection and handling).  Some NASs never supported TM; some that worked on Leopard never got updated for Snow Leopard; and some that worked on Snow Leopard still haven't been updated for Lion.
    4) Another networked mac (not a pc)
    A Mac running Leopard 10.5.6 or later.
    Are these the only options?
    Those are the only options supported by Apple.  Some other destinations may work, to some degree, in some circumstances.  Some require "hacks" or other workarounds.  Most are somewhat unreliable, and, may stop working at all on the next OSX upgrade.
    Side note. I've been seeing some online post of how some people are setting up TM on a networked PC drive by setting up a sparsebundle like this site:
    Any thoughts? I have tried some of these examples and it don't seem to work...
    Some of those may have worked at one time, in some circumstances (2 are dated before Lion was released, the other is undated). 
    Wireless backups are tricky enough to a supported destination, with all the security and error detection and handling Apple has been able to employ.   If your backups are important to you, don't trust them to a marginal scheme.
    And, in any event, don't trust your backups to a single piece of hardware or software.  See Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #27 for an explanation and some suggestions.

  • HT3275 Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive.  Could not complete backup to media share.  The network backup disk does not support the required AFP feat

    Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive.  "Could not complete backup to media share.  The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features."  What are AFP features and how do I get Time Machine to backup to my current external backup?

    This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

  • Network backup disk does not support the required AFP features

    I have a mac mini with two (4T) hard disks each set as target in TimeMachine. Backups have been made on both for some time. This afternoon one of the disks is being rejected as target volume, with the "network backup disk does not support the required AFP features" error.
    The sparse image on the disk that is the actual time machine target shows a modification tim of 13:09, time machine reports the last backup on that volume as made on 13:08. It seems the last successful backup was made at that time. The other TimeMachine target volume on the same min reports a last backup at 15:28
    So why an error now? What has happend in the last hour, or so, to cause the disk to no longer be suitable? Why only on one virtual disk?
    The mac mini runs OS X 10.9.4 (13E28), the disk with the failing backup volume is formatted with Case-Sensitive Journaled HFS+, the still working disk Journaled HFS+.
    This may be related: A couple of month ago  I lost the complete backup on that disk, when time machine conclude that the contents of the target volume was corrupt. At the time I blamed that at a failed backup when I had accessed the mini over ssh using SLINK when traveling. Maybe that conclusion is wrong and this is part of the same problem.
    Any pointers on how to get my second backup disk working again would be much appreciated.
    Eduard de Jong

    The error message has disappeared!
    Earlier this morning the disk has been used as target for a backup by time machine without triggering the error message. A backup 8 hours earlier has also been made to the same sparse image (looking at the folder names).

  • AFP error for new hard drive for time machine The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features.

    Purchased Seagate network drive, ethernet attached to wireless router, set up went well but attempts at backup with Time Machine failed. "Do I need to erase disk and reformat or is this error message "The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features" indicating some other error?

    That means the NAS drive's OS isn't compatible with the version of OSX you're running.   See if the maker has an update.

    Can anyone tell me what this Time Machine error means? The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features?

    AFP - Apple Filing Protocol
    The Network Attached Storage (NAS) that you are pointing Time Machine at does not have the features needed by Time Machine in order to do its Thing.  Time Machine needs some specific features that are not typically available on generic networked storage devices.
    There are manufactures that support the Mac OS X HFS+ file system formats and implement all the needed AFP protocol packets necessary so that they can be used with Time Machine, but apparently yours does not.
    If you are not using a networked mounted volume for Time Machine, then more information will be needed about your Time Machine setup.

  • HT3275 Time Machine gave me this message after updating to Mountion Lion "The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features."

    After upgrading to Mountain lion, I got this message when it tried to backup to "MybookLive" network disk.
    "The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features."
    What are AFP features and why can I now not back up to my network disk?

    I had a similar issue when I tried to do a network-share backup w Time machine when the share was on a Leopard OSX G5 Power PC.
    I think Time Machine looks for a minimum feature set support from the afp mounted drives so they can be used with Time Machine.
    Western Digital may have to update the firmware on your device to support the new afp features.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original location - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it

    Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original locations - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it - also, when transferring large amounts of files it becomes a very large problem remembering which files were transferred and which not.

    You're going to need to be more specific, as I'm not quite sure I understand what you're talking about.
    If you're referring to copying from an external hard drive or flash drive, and you want to actually move files rather than copy them, you can hold down the option key to force it to do a "move" rather than a "copy." This is not new behavior, though... the Mac OS has worked this way as long as I can recall (and I've been using it since 1984).
    If you're having a problem with trying to move files from one place to another on a single drive causing them to be copied instead, that is likely because of some permissions issue preventing you from actually being able to move them.

  • Need to backup and remove photo library form my iphone.  This library was previously backup on a hard drive that crashed.  So these photos are only in the photo library and not in the camera roll.  If I do a full backup, it only takes the camera roll.

    Need to backup and remove photo library from my iphone.  This library was previously backup on a hard drive that crashed.  So these photos are only in the photo library and not in the camera roll.  If I do a full backup, it only takes the camera roll.
    So this is a 2 part question:
    1) how to I backup the Photo Library to my new hard drive (as the last one was unrecoverable but previously backed up)
    2) how do I remove the Photo Library form my phone (preferably after backup in item 1)

    Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer.  As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
    You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you.  I'm sure you'll pay, however.
    Let this be a very important lesson learned.
    Best.

  • I have set up our school ipads to be supervised by Apple Configurator and am using VPP to buy apps.  I now find the supervised ipads do not allow the pupils to download photos or movies etc. Any suggestions would be great please.

    I have set up our school ipads to be supervised by Apple Configurator and am using VPP to buy apps. I did this initially as our school internet connection was stopping us from being able to update the IOS and our County was offering a managed system, Lightspeed, which took control of every device in school which proved very expensive.  I now find the supervised ipads do not allow the pupils to download photos or movies etc. As we frequently use the ipads as cameras this is causing us a problem. We have a school imac that I use to keep the devices updated with Apple Configurator (not connected to our network), and this doesn't seem to offer any solution to download them either.  I was told there was a setting in Apple Configurator to allow other computers to download from supervised devices, but I can't see it anywhere.  I am very new to this so any advice or help would be greatly appreciated please.

    I assume you are wanting to take the photos and movies off the iPads?
    Connect the iPad to a Apple computer. Open "Image Capture". Any photos or video can me imported to the desktop or other location on your computer.
    I had this same problem last year and as we have no wifi I asked lots of people at Apple what I could do - no one provided this answer (a little unbelievable!). If you have wifi using something like dropbox would be an easier solution.
    Hope this helps

  • HT6030 I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update. Hmmmm.

    I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update.   Expect it's due to being at 10.9.1.  Mail is still teetering between dysfunctional and non-functional.  Advice?

    I'm not sure what "Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6" is. Mac OS X 10.5.6 is Leopard, a system that is quite old at this point. There have not been any Mail updates for Leopard in quite some time. If you are trying to install some old Mail update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 in Mavericks, that won't work.
    If you are trying to install the Mavericks Mail update manually, that's not necessary if you have updated through the App Store. If the App Store shows no updates, you don't need this. (The error message doesn't make sense, and may indicate some other problem with your system, assuming that you were downloading this update from Apple's site.)
    I'd advise you to start a new topic in the Mavericks forum and describe the problems you are having with Mail. Be sure to include specifics, but try to avoid speculating on causes, as responses that may be related to an inaccurate assumption on your part can cloud the issue.

  • The wrong name of the message sender appears. The phone also does not notify the receiver. This started after we purchased in iPad and attempted sending that phone an iMessage.

    When sending messages to one of our iPhones, the wrong name of the sender appears. The phone also does not notify the receiver. This started after we purchased in iPad and attempted sending that phone an iMessage.

    Hi buddy, I figured out what is wrong with that. I had the very same issue, while sending an sms via iMessage on Mountain Lion. I called the Apple guy at the Apple care support but without any luck.
    At the end--at least in my case, but it could also be yours--I think I have understood what was going on. This happens when you have your Apple ID registered on more than one device. In my case, we have two iPhones--one for me and one for my wife--but with the same App Store account. So, when I sent an sms via iMessage for the Mac, the receiver was shown my wife's iPhone number.
    I hope I have been clear enough, you know, explaining this in a foreing language is always painful...
    Ciao,
    Antonio
    P.S.: this could be true for similar issues (iMessage wrong sender) that I've read in the Mountain Lion, iPad and iPod forums.
