Terminal Path Problem after HD replacement (Git, ls)

I recently had my MBP looked at by the Genius Bar, and they determined that I needed a new Hard Drive.  After getting my machine back, I restored it from Timemachine, and all was well.
When I opened up Terminal for the first time to work on a develoment project, I found that Terminal wouldn't recognize git commands, even though git was installed.  When running a git status in my development folder, I received the following error:
-bash: git: command not found
I did some googling and found that it was probably due to my bash profile PATH.  I ran echo $PATH, which resulted in:
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
Someone indicated that I need to update my .bash_profile, but it didn't seem to exist.  I created it and included the following line, which is where git is installed:
export PATH=/usr/local/git/bin
My path then became:
/usr/local/git/bin
That fixed my Git issue and all was well.  Until I tried to list (ls) the folders in a directory:
-bash: ls: command not found
I'm having a hard time trying to figure out just exaclty what to do next in order to have all Terminal functionality back.  I'm not all that savy with Terminal, so any help at all would be appreciated.  Many thanks in advance.

You are a god among men, a gentleman or lady, and a scholar.  Thank you!

  • How many still suffer problems after MLB replacement !?

    Hi,
    I've had my MacBook for around 4 weeks now, 1.5 of them spent in repair after one kernel panic and the inability to start up afterwards. I received it back yesterday and everything worked fine all night.
    I'm currently at work so haven't had chance to check myself, but my girlfriends just rang me to say that the computer won't boot up !?
    I think if there is another issue I'll be demanding my money back and purchasing something I can rely on like a MacMini !?
    Has anyone else suffered similar problems after an MLB replacement !?
    I understand that there are work arounds like resetting the PRAM etc, but would you accept this if say you'd bought a new car and after it having problems on ignition being told by the dealer that it'll work, but you have to remove the battery and clean the spark-plugs every time you want to use it !!
    I think Apple should really start offering replacements or people there money back, and even start recalling them until they've identified the problem !!

    Hi,
    At this point after more than a month of having your MacBook, you cannot get a full refund, or return the MacBook either. My friend has tried to do that with his MacBook, but Apple will not allow them to return or even exchange the MacBook. Soory about that, but if you continue to allow Apple to fix the problems, you will get a working MacBook eventually. By the way, you may want to ask your girlfriend to reseat the battery, make sure the computer is plugged, and if that doesn't work try resestting the NVRAM and the PMU. Also, you can try and reseat the RAM. Hope this helps.

  • Problems after motherboard replacement

    Hello,
    My PXI system consists of PXI-1045, PXI-8360 and five NI PXI intruments (5152, 4065, 6552, 2532, 5404). I was working with this system without problems for a long time. However, the motherboard of my PC had a specific problem with the ethernet connenction and I decided to replace the motherboard with a new one (same model). After the replacement (the pc finally was fully functional), I tried to power on the PXI chassis, but  I couldn't "see" any module in PXI chassism, using
    the MAX. I must tell thatI didn't change the hard disk of the pc, or anything else just the motherboard.After some experiments, I finally fix the probrem with the following solution: First I unplugged all the modules from PXI chassis. After that, I plugged one module and I reboot the pc. After that I plugged the second one module and I reboot the pc. And so on...
    This was the only solution that I found in order to indentify all the modules of the PXI chassis.
    My question is why happend this thing? Where are the PXI modules' adresses stored? Also, is the procedure I used correct, or I had to do something else in order to make the system work?

    Hello George,
    you might want to consider posting this question in a more hardware based forum - the problem does not seem to be related to CVI.
    Good luck

  • UGH. many problems, after 3 replacements during the summer

    So, during summer i got 3 replacements, about 7 days apart, after first getting it.
    A few months ago it started being ridiculous again.
    Problems:
    1) I've used the DVD drive (it's a burner too) 4 times. 2 of those times i had to reinstall the OS; I then burned an audio cd, and installed a video game. Earlier this week I was having tons of problems with the cd drive. It wasn't working, and now the cd won't even come out (note: the first two times i got it replaced it was because of a cd drive issue)
    2) I get a lot of lock/shut down errors (the multi-languaged gray box)
    3) I can't do any form of hard drive repair using system utilities. it says i need to reinstall and format, but i can't do that because of the cd drive!
    4) I have the defect with the palm rest, where it turns that nasty brown.
    5) The side of the case (near where you would plug in usb devices) is very loose, and if you press it, it makes a weird noise.
    6) The spacebar, and the click on the mouse are sticking (notice: i never take this thing out of doors, and i don't have any drinks or food in my dorm room)
    7) Some of my itunes songs started playing in super fast-foward, so i don't know what that problem is. It seems like it would be the memory, or a hard drive problem.
    My major concern is that i do a lot of heavy writing, and i need my computer. I'm convinced that there are problems. Enough of them, at least, to get it fixed or replaced. I need this computer to work, and i can't have downtime.
    Do you think it is possible for me to get a temporary computer while it is getting fixed, or do you think they will just give me a replacement all together?

    If you do take it in for repair... you might want to use an app like super duper:http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html
    to make a bootable clone of your drive so you don't loose any data. An authorized apple dealer and repair center might lend you a computer. Who knows...

  • Vim+gnome terminal+xfce - problem after last update

    I use vim in the tabbed gnome terminal in the xfce4 desktop.
    After todays update I have serious problem with editing file.
    I see rendering artifacts, mixed syntax colors, I can fix it with redrawing vim screen or resizing terminal.
    Have you noticed something similiar?

    Fixed with vte 0.16.4-2. vte was rendering uninitialized things on the screen, making random alienated things appearing in your terminal.

  • G10 Flash Problem after Lens Replacement - Ideas?

    Need some advice on my G10. The story is that I have two G10s -  one had a "lens error" and the other just badly scratched. So I replaced both lenses - one sourced from Chicago and one sourced from China. After replacing both, neither flash will fire. Prior to my meddling both cameras worked perfectly.
    I tore them down again and reseated every ribbon cable and internal connection. Same result. If I disable the flash with the menu the shutter fires. If it is set to flash (auto or forced) then the shutter will not fire - the focusing light just hunts around waiting for the flash that never comes.
    Now if I put an external flash in the hotshoe - the external flash will fire just fine. Just not the internal. I checked the microswitch under the hotshoe and it is responding fine.  Weird.
    So thinking both lens replacement units might be faulty I put the original scratched lens back in (which was working just fine ) and same result - no flash again and no shutter on flash setting.
    I am sure it is something I must have done during the reassembly because there are two cameras involved - I just can't figure out what it was.
    My other thought is that the capacitor discharged when I disassembled and now it will not re-acquire enough juice to fire.
    Any ideas from the Forum? Thanks much.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi, I am guessing you do not have the service software, focusing charts, collimator box etc. to recalibrate the lens system?
    When the camera shoots how is the image?
    I doubt you have 2 bad lenses.
    Do you have the service manual ? The flash circuit board usually connects to the DC supply right off the battery box, look in that area for a problem with a connector, you may have reversed one on both cameras? I've worked on a couple models, G5 and the S5 but never on the lens assembly because of all the special tools and software needed. I was able to locate the service manuals for those that I worked on first. If you don't have the service manual try and find it.
    So my guesses are you made the same mistake with the flash pcb board connectors on or near the battery box on both cameras or the lens systems need to be recalibrated which is why you have that "hunting" symptom.
    Also as an after thought do you have the AC adaptor, if so try it using that and see if the flash works. If it works with that then your problem is most definitely in or around the battery box/flash PCB.
    Let me know what you find.

  • How to fix iphone 4s (searching..) problem after screen replacement

    I had a black iPhone 4S that had a cracked screen and I decided if I was going to change the screen i also want to change my iPhone white too but when I finished the whole process my iPhone kept saying (searching..) for signal no matter if there was a SIM card in or not. I also went back into the phone and checked if any cables or antenna cables were not put in and it seems like I put them in all right.. But I just need help how to fix my iPhone to read the SIM card..
    PLEASE HELP.. 

    An iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service may be eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service. For example, an iPhone that has failed due to damage or liquid damage is ineligible for warranty service but eligible for OOW service. However, certain damage is ineligible for OOW service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications.

  • Time Machine Problem after Hard drive replacement

    Hi all,
    I am new at this so thanks in advance for any help or direction.  I am running Mac OS X version 10.6.8 on an iMac and am having troubles with my Time Machine since having my 1 TB hard drive replaced under the Seagate recall.  Specifically, the store somehow cloned my drive during the replacement process but now when Time Machine runs it doesn't recognize its prior backups as belonging to itself, starts to perform a full backup and then realizes it runs out of room as shown above.
    I am backing up wirelessly to a 2012 dlink network attached storage device and it was working perfectly before having the hard drive replaced.  The first time took ages but since was working fine.  I have spent 3+ hours on the phone with apple support to no avail (trying to associate the old backups with TM and then just trying to delete them to start over..,) and have since been working through the Pondini pages of troubleshooting TM solutions.
         Specifically, I have followed the instructions on http://pondini.org/TM/B6.html going through the green box steps 1-5 successfully first, but then I am unable to complete the process to inherit or associate the old backups (either pink or blue box) due to this error. 
    If I cannot associate the old backups with this 'new HD computer'  then I think that I need to erase all prior backups so that I have room on the NAS to start TM backup from scratch.  However, this is problematic as I cannot 'see' the old backups to try to delete them through Time Machine itself as the computer does not see itself as existing on the timeline prior to the HD replacement date.  I therefore need a way of deleting the whole thing but clearly not through Finder or Terminal from problems mentioned by doing this in prior posts.
    My NAS is partitioned so that all the Time Machine Backups were supposed to be just in one part of the NAS, separate from the stuff we were archiving from several other computers....(I cannot just reformat the entire NAS).  From reading many of the Pondini troubleshooting posts I think that I need to do something to delete the whole sparsebundle? and think I have located it (see image below) (although I am not sure if it is the one from my prior successful backups prior to Nov 18 or from the more recent failed attempts).
    I am carefully reading http://pondini.org/TM/12.html about deleting but at this point am a bit confused as to the best course of action.
    Ideally, I would love to successfully tell TM that it has already backed itself up and that the Backups.backups folder belongs to it and not some other computer, so it can just proceed with updates.
    Failing that, I think that I would try to delete all prior backups to free up the entire 1.87 TB that are designated and apple formatted for TM on the NAS and then restart TM from scratch.
    Not sure if the Backups.backups folder that I have identified has all the info from before November 18th and then could be used to restore itself as I cannot see it through TM.
    Thanks for the advice in advance.  I would be grateful for any assistance and I am sure others having their hard drives replaced would also benefit.

    Hi all,
    I am a bit disappointed that nobody has offered me any help!  Please?  Pondini?
    Thanks

  • Is anyone still having discrete graphics card problems after replacement

    Is anyone still having discrete graphics card problems after replacement?
    Macbook Pro eligible for replacement through Apple program.
    Submitted my computer 2 days before program came into effect.
    They replaced card or logic board with same original model: AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB
    Issued me a refund check for my repair.
    Seems to have some noticeable issues, fan running more than usual again, and temporary graphic lines,
    but disappear too fast before a screen dump...
    Is anyone who has participated in the replacement program received a different graphic card for
    Model Macbook Pro 17" (late 2011)
    Thank you for the reply.

    Unfortunately I have yet to call AppleCare because I am on a project for 3 weeks and cannot be without my laptop during that period....
    Until that time I am trying to figure out what I can do to protect the Palm Rest/Mouse Pad area of my Macbook once they either fix it or give me a new one. Has anyone had any experience with either of these products that can provide some input as to whether they are good or bad?

  • Multiple Samsung Stratosphere problems after FF1 update

    There have been multiple posts on various issues users have found after the recent Stratopshere FF1 update.  Some were replys to older posts and some only touched on a single issue.  I wanted to consolodate into one thread, and hopefully get teh attention of Verizon to maybe reply here.
    For reference, a lot has been discuss here --> https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/874446
    Summary:  Verizon and Samsung have finally updated the Stratosphere almost 1 year after release.  This updated the phone from Android 2.3.5 to Android 2.3.6.  Going by filename, this is known as the FF1 update.   This update went live at the end of August 2012, and most users were upgraded before mid September 2012.
    There were some noticable changes in this update:
    -Lock screen has changed.  The puzzle piece and glass lock options have been removed.  New options have been added, such as facial recognition unlock.
    -Call answering screen has changed, introducing the option to ignore call with a message.
    -Camera now has digital zoom ability.
    -Ability to uninstall the 2 games the phone comes with (Need for Speed and Lets Golf)
    -Phone icon has changed ever so slightly
    -Wifi icon now included up and down arrows to indicate data is being sent or recieved
    -Wallpaper no longer "stretches" over multiple screens - ie, it no longer scrolls as you move from screen to screen
    -The visual voicemail app has been improved (I have personally not used this feature)
    -Callback number is now supported in text / picture messages
    -Android core OS updated from 2.3.5 to 2.3.6 (both versions are still Gingerbread)
    -Update to how the device deals with the end of scrolling.  It used to rubber-band bounce back, now it will just give a green bar and expand the bar as you scroll.  (I cannot fault Samsung for this change as this was at teh core of an Apple lawsuit and has been changed in newer versions of Android.)
    -(I am sure there are more.  please list any others you may have noticed)
    I have found some problems, and others have confirmed that this is (at least) somewhat widespread:
    -The biggest problem is with wifi connectivity.  Upon an initial connection to wifi, everything works great.  After somewhere between 15minutes and 2 hours, problems start happening.  Its as if the wifi keeps hanging or reconnecting.  Download speeds (tested with the SpeedTest.com app) slow to about one third of normal.  Apps like Facebook that require a constant connection will just time out.
    -It appears the signal strength for 3g and 4g connections is lower.  There are places where I used to get a 4g connection, and now I only get 3g.  Some palces I fall back to just 2g digital.
    Another minor issue i found was with text messages.  When you reply to a message, it no longer automatically focuses the text in the input box.  You have to first click into the box to start typing.  Not a huge deal, but one more step to take over and over.  Minor annoyence.
    At my house, I struggle to get a 3g or 4g signal.  I depend on wifi for my data connection.  So with the wifi connection problem introduced by teh FF1 update, my phone is somewhat useless to me now while at home.  Here are teh troubleshooting steps I have been through so far to attempt to fix the wifi problem:
    -Complete factory reset on my phone.  (did not help)
    -Pull battery and SIM card out of phone for 15 minutes.  (did not help)
    -Went to a Verizon store.  The guy at the store was helpful, and said he also had a Stratosphere and was getting the same wifi problems after the update.  He said all he could do was to send me out a replacement phone. I got the replacement phone, and it had the same problems.
    -I read in multiple palces that Android 2.3.6 has a bug within wifi and DHCP.  Apparently if you have a DHCP lease set to "forever", the phone will keep requesting a new address.  Setting the DHCP server on the router to something like 2 weeks, or using a static IP is supposed to solve this.  I have a NetGear N900 router, and I can not change teh DHCP lease time.  It appears, however, that my router is not sending out "forever" leases.  But just to make sure, I gave my phone a static IP.  (None of these steps made any difference).
    The only thing that temporarily fixes the problem is a reboot of the phone.  This will again give you anywhere from 15min to 2 hours of good wifi use before problems start happening.
    I have now had this update for over a week, and on 2 phones.  I still can't maintain a wifi connection for much longer than 15 minutes without problems starting up.
    I am asking Verizon or Samsung to at least confirm this issue if possible.  Maybe there are newer revs of the Stratopshere hardware that don't have this problem.  Or there is something unique about my (and apparently others) situation.  But it seems like Verizon's current stance is to offer a repalcement phone (as currently all Stratospheres are within their 1 year manufacture warranty as the phone has not been ouy for quite 1 year yet).
    I am asking for a workaround for this problem, or a true fix adressed by a new software update, or at least allow us to roll back to the original Andorid 2.3.5 software.
    I have had my original Stratosphere for almost a year with no wifi problems - then get the FF1 update and have had nothing but problems on 2 different phones.
    Thank you for your time.

    Thanks for starting a comprehensive thread on problems with this update. I want to add one more.
    I have Bluetooth in my car (a 2004 model), and previously the phone has connected to it practically instantly when I start the car. Since the update, I have never been able to connect the phone to the car by Bluetooth. Several times the phone has made a standard notification sound at the moment it should be connecting to Bluetooth, though no notification appears. I have no idea what that could mean.The car's Bluetooth shows up as paired in the list of devices in Settings > Wireless & networks > Bluetooth settings. I haven't seen this widely reported as an update issue, but perhaps some others have experienced it too.
    UPDATE: I finally did some testing, and found that the notification was to signal the extremely brief appearance of a dialog indicating that the car's Bluetooth was requesting a connection. Accepting that request let the phone connect with the car, and calls went to the car's sound system as they should. When I turned the car off and back on (just the electrical system; not wasting any gas on this!), the connection was established immediately, so apparently the acceptance only had to be done once. Nevertheless, it did have to be done, and the dialog notification disappears within seconds. I believe it would have been possible to go into Bluetooth settings and accept the connection request there if I missed the notification; but not seeing the notification, I might not know to do this.
    One further observation: When I turned the phone's Bluetooth off and back on after a connection had been established, leaving the car on the whole time, the two did not reconnect. I believe that may be different from before the update, but I'm not really sure.

  • Vendor Open Item Was Not Offset After a Replacement Check

    Hi FI Guru,
    We have an issue with vendor replacement check.  Our vendor open item still apears in FBL1N after a replacement check is paid.  We initially issued a check against a vendor invoice and we had to void that check because due to check printing problem.   The check was cancelled in FCH8.  We then issued a replacement check in F110.  When I displayed open items for the vendor in FBL1N, the vendor invoice still showed up.  The replacement check already sent to our vendor.  So we have to apply the payment to the vendor's invoice.  It seems the second transaction (for the replacement check) is incomplete because I dont't think it hits our bank account.
    Here are my questions:
    1) Is there another transaction our user needs to offset vendor invoice?
    2) If we have to fix it manually, what is the best option to offset the open vendor invoice and still be able to hit our bank account.
    Any help is appreciated. 
    Thanks!!

    Hi,
    In order to change the Open Item Management for a G/L account using
    ZFSEPA02 the line item total(Total of open items)for this account
    should match/tally with the account balance for this account (FS10),
    otherwise the open item activation will not be possible.
    Unfortunately as per note 175960 you find reports RFSEPA02/ RFSEPA03
    are no longer supported as of release 4.5A.
    ALTHOUGH you can find a possible solution on how to tally the line items
    to the balance in the NOTE 403744.
    1.  Active New General Ledger
             This note applies ONLY WITH RESTRICTIONS to Release ERP 2004 or ERP
             2005 with activated New General Ledger and activated document
             splitting.
             In these releases, it is not currently possible to subsequently
             activate the open item management under the specified conditions.
             The only option currently available is to set up a new account with
             open item management and to use this instead of the original
             account.
             However, it is also possible to deactivate the open item management
             using report ZFSEPA03 under the prerequisites described below.
         2.  Migration to the New GL:
             If you are planning to migrate to the new General Ledger using a
             migration type that enables the use of document splitting, ensure
             that in Phase 1 and Phase 2 NO changes are make to the open item
             management. Phases 1 and 2 indicate the period between the migration
             date and the end of the actual migration (the "Migration Completed"
             indicator is set)

  • Handoff does not work after phone replacement.

    Dear all,
    I'm using iPhone 6 and Macbook Pro Retina 2014 mid and getting some trouble with using continuity on Yosemite.
    Before I use iPhone 5s 16G(IOS 8.1.1)when it was not thrown to the water , continuity does work so well.  But after that, replacing it for iPhone 6, it does not.
    I think it could be happen since my previous iPhone 5s cannot be logout from iCloud but i don't know why exactly.
    so could you give me some advice for fixing it?
    I'm currently using iPhone 6 (64G)with IOS 8.1.1 (12B436) and Macbook Pro Retina 15" with OS X Yosemite 10.10.1(14B25)
    and I also tried to solve this problem with logout/in from iCloud and handoff off/on, rebooting both devices but failed.
    The only working function of the continuity is SMS sync.
    Could you please help me solve this problem?

    I thought I'd post you a quick response because you described exactly the issues I was having. After my phone was idle for a while, my iPhone would refuse to get data over 3G.
    I've tested this thoroughly and I'm able to "trip up" the phone into a state where it can't download data from the 3G network. But turning airline mode on for about 30 seconds then off again resets forces a renegotiate with the cell tower/3g and everything seems to work again about a minute later.
    Nothing untoward listed in the console at this point either - The PDP context that you mentioned that was deactivated was more than likely the Internet Tethering. (It's usually PDP context 1, by the looks of things).
    I think I might switch off 3G and see if that helps until Apple fix this issue. It is related to the wifi issues that others have reported - As I've seen my iPhone unable to download information via 3G if wifi is turned on, but you don't connect to a wifi network. But I can't seem to reproduce this reliably.

  • WiFi problem after upgrading to Windows 8.1 Lenovo R400 ThinkPad

     I have this problem after updating to 8 to 8.1
    Right after updating to 8 to 8.1, all of a sudden my wifi stops working. I used my philips external wifi usb stick and now I'm able to get the internet going.
    However if I disconnect my philips usb I no longer get the internet because the built in wifi that came with the R400 ThinkPad no longer works. I went through the device manager and under properties it tells me, 'Device not working properly' however it is up to date.
    Im Running Windows 8.1  64bit  Laptop Lenovo R400 ThinkPad

    Hi Matti,
    Thank you for replying back!
    I suggest you to reinstall the Windows 8.1, as all the windows driver will not update, if you have upgraded the Windows 8 to Windows 8.1.
    Please download Windows 8.1 separately and reinstall the OS, I hope this may resolve the issue.
    Note: I am not suggesting for clean installation, only reinstalling the same OS.
    Do not update the drivers from ThinkVantage system update utility. I suggest you to uninstall the current drivers and download the drivers manually for Windows 8.1 and install it.
    Below is the link to enter the downloads page and download updates accordingly, please click on "Select Product" then in "QUICK PATH" enter the MTM no. select the exact model.

  • Computer problems after upgrading to Mavericks

    SO many problems. I cleared out a ton of old stuff that I saw might be causing problems, and I've verified and repaired the disc, and uninstalled and reinstalled a couple of programs that I was seeing problems with in the console, but now I'm just flummoxed. It's behaving better than it was earlier, and isn't giving me the beach ball nearly so often, but it still seems like it's taking too long for a lot of things. I just reinstalled Avast and am currently letting a game update through Steam. I have the console and the activity monitor open to one side. Since I opened the console, it's been spitting out one or two messages every second, and all I can find through some internet searching is that it's something to do with the wireless connection. There's some other stuff periodically mixed in that doesn't sound good either, involving either sandboxd or mdworker. But for the most part it's along these lines:

    I just reinstalled Avast
    "Avast" is perhaps the worst of the whole wretched lot of commercial "security" products for the Mac. It's worse than the imaginary "viruses" you were worried about when you installed it. Not only does it fail to protect you, it throws false warnings, destabilizes and slows down your computer, and sometimes or always corrupts the network settings and the permissions of files in your home folder. Removing it may not repair all the damage, and neither will Disk Utility or even reinstalling OS X.
    Back up all data, then remove "Avast" according to the developer's instructions. Reboot.
    If you tried to remove Avast by dragging an application to the Trash, you'll have to reinstall it and follow the instructions linked above.
    If you still have problems after following those instructions, post again.

  • Time Machine problem after restoring to a new HD (after my original HD failed)

    I am running Lion 10.7.5 on a MacBook Pro Late '11
    My HD was getting SMART errors, so I did a complete back up using Time Machine using a WD My Passport 1TB external, and then sent my MBP to Apple for HD replacement (under my Applecare plan).
    I collected it yesterday and restored my system using Time Machine (using the data from my external HD) and everything was restored perfectly, which was great,
    However, I'm now encountering a problem after plugging my external HD back into my MBP on the new system. Rather than Time Machine doing a swift 'top up' back up, it appears that TM is attempting to do a full back up. (I have 300GB and it took nearly 24hours to backup on the faulty drive) Is this normal after installing a new HD? Bearing in mind the Time Machine data is still on my external drive?
    It's also appearing to be taking FOREVER to do this entire back up again. It is stuck on 'preparing back up' and when I do get some movement, it's doing a couple of KB's at a time and with no genuine back up progress.
    Fundamentally, I just want to just top up my Time Machine back up without having do a complete back up, again. (which doesn't actually seem possible, viable at the min)
    Any help / support would be much appreciated

    AFAIK, it'll do that since the HD has a different UUID and the old TM backup won't recognize it. See Pondini's TM FAQs, for starters.
