TC doesnt recognize my backup yesterday and wont mount

hi
i got my 1TB TC from amazon yesterday, connected it with my imac with ethernet cabel and started to backup my imac (413GB). all was fine. he started to backup, mounted the TC disc
and i got round 2,5GB in 5min. then i read i can stop that backup and continue tomorrow
as i went to bed and didnt want to leave on my imac.
today i booted my imac clicked on "backup now" and it began from beginning, why?
also the TC disc wont mount today. i am confused. cant i stop and continue the backup?
thanks for help

i found out when i click on "start backup" he builds a new sparse image. i stopped now,
i think i have to wait until the time counts down in the control panel.
it says "next backup" in 45min.
is it possible to limit the backup in the future to 2 sessions per day
and to spin down the disc in the TC if it is not needed? its kind of loud in my living room.
thx

  • How can I copy programs (iWorks) and files from Time Capsule to my HD manually? The problem is that the migration assistant does not recognize my backup file and the user on the TC. (If I open the TC on finder, it it there though)

  • My macbook doesn't recognize my iphone 5 and wont let me sync my music or apps in itunes

    My itunes 10.6.3 (25) in my macbook OS X doesn't recognize my iphone 5. So I can't sync my apps or music to my phone (although I was able to sync my photos and videos through iphoto) I rebooted both my phone and mac and switched connecting ports. Nothing.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Have you tried in different locations, does this happen everywhere. Have you tried a hard restart.

  • TA25361 did restore and now wont recognize the sim card and wont start up the phone

    hello

    How did you get your iphone unlocked?
    ONLY the carrier to which it is locked can unlock it.
    No one else at all.
    Any other method is a hack and will result in what has happened in your case.

  • What do i do if my iphoto doesnt recognize my user name and password combination?

    I recently changed my email password, does that have anything to do with iphoto not recognizing username and password combination?

    No, it shouldn't. Where in iPhoto is it asking for your username and password?

  • Disk drive is going round in circles and wont mount! Please help!

    I've had my macbook for a about 5-6 years... and i've only just got around to FINALLY installing snow leopard.
    The only problem is my disk drive won't mount the disk, and is having a very hard time ejecting it. Just seems to be going round in circles!!
    Is there anyone can can offer any wise words of wisdom that isn't 'You need a new one!'

    Do you know that the optical drive works? Have you used it recently?
    To eject the CD, try restarting the computer and when you hear the chime hold the mouse button (track pad) down.

  • Bold 9900 switched off and wont turn on

    Hi My BB 9900 switched off yesterday and wont turn on at all. No sign of red light, not charging, nothing. I tried connecting it my PC but the PC doesnt pick it up - Please help. I use my phone for  everything

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
    Good luck and let us know!

    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    1. The lock button and home thing WONT WORK.

    Try:
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
