Time capsule partition without deleting the data?

I have a Time Capsule already with data and would like to set a limited space for backups. Is it possible to partition a Time Capsule (or create an image) without deleting the data it already has? Can anyone provide a step-by-step or tutorial?
Thanks a lot in advance.

The following instructions will work for Lion and Mountain Lion Macs, but I have not tested on Mavericks....which seems to be just that....a Maverick.

  • Can time capsule store more than the data on my computer?

    Can time capsule store more than the data on my computer?
    I have a lack of data storage space on my macbook hence I would like to know if Time Capsule is an external hard drive and not just a back up device.

    It is a backup device.. in fact it is a backup device for wireless clients in particular hence it is a wireless router with a hard disk inside.. if you use it for storage.. it has one or two big weaknesses..
    It is slow.. cf a real NAS with raid.. a single slow green drive is plenty for backups.. less than adequate for storage.. fine over wireless of course.. lousy if you are trying to pass big files.. like your iphoto library back and forth.
    But the biggie.. IMHO.. no backup.. the TC has no way to back itself up.. and TM cannot include the content of the TC in a backup to another location.. TM cannot backup any network drive.
    So your files will be stored on one bottom of the market, cheapest possible drive available.. with no backup.. !!
    Time Machine and data files may also not so happily co-exist.. the TC cannot be partitioned (well not internally).
    You can create data images... but is this a good idea??

  • How do I remove a profile account from one computer without deleting the data?

    Hi! I want to delete mozilla from one computer and remove my profile account so that all of my data on this computer is deleted. But I use the same profile in mozilla on another computer and I don`t know if my profile will keep the data stored on this computer after deleting it in the other one. Can you please clarify this issue for me. Thanks!
    Best,

    If you want to delete your personal data on a computer reliably then you would have to perform a secure wipe to clear the data on the hard drive.
    Otherwise Windows will only mark data as deleted.
    Best is to disconnect from Sync before deleting data on a computer to avoid other computers from getting affected.
    You can use the Profile Manager to remove a profile.

    My iPod has been locked for a couple of years, I didn't even know that could happen. I need to get the pictures off of the device, but I don't want to erase the data off of it since it hasn't been backed up. Is there a way I can do that?

  • Partition Ext HDD without losing the data already on the disc

    I have an early G5 iMac 80gb HDD, Macbook and a Macmini
    I have finally managed to get them all running the same version of ilife(08) and thought it was time to get them all running from the same hymn sheet...
    I have been using a 500gb Ext HDD (iphoto,itunes etc) so i have filled around 300GB so far, the problem is I want to move my iMovie events/projects to the ext HDD to. I have followed the steps to move the files but I get a dialogue box telling me my drive isn't compatible with imovie. (iMovie 08)
    When I check the Ext HDD format (using <apple>+i it tells me the format is appleshare...
    So after that intro..... can I partition this drive and set aside say 100GB (178GB free) without losing the data on the drive??
    Thank you for reading
    Chris

    Appleshare? That is not a format.
    It must be formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) if not already. Reformatting will delete everything on the disk.

  • Delete the data in several rows without deleting formulas?

    Hello, Is there a clever way to delete data on several rows at a time without also deleting the formulas or formatting in the columns?

    As far as I can tell, "data," "values," and "numbers" are all the same thing, and formulas act upon the data as necessary. I have several columns of data, then a column that figures a percentage, in currency, of the previous column. The totals for all the numbered data is added at the bottom. I found that if I delete the entire row, however, I also delete the formula. I wanted to find out how to do this quick and easy, without deleting the formula. I decided it's easier to delete just the data from the cells previous to the formula column, which leaves the formula intact. Then I must also delete the entries (data) in the rows following the formula.
    There are also occasions when I wish to move several rows down, but I found that by doing this, I also delete the formula, and it must be re-entered manually. I just wish there was a way to keep the formula intact, but apparently the only way to do that is to delete only the columns that do not contain a formula.
    Perhaps it's that I'm not familiar with spreadsheets. I've used Filemaker Pro for several years, and find it more user-friendly than Numbers.
    Thanks for your suggestion.

  • How can i ensure that the time capsule back up all my data?

    how can i ensure that the time capsule back up all my data and no any data missed during the back up? becz i was backing up my mac to time capsule for the first time and it takes only 5 hourse for 279GB which is doesnt make sense
    any idea, how to ensure that all my data been backed up

    well this tells you why you are having issues.. since you have a filevault and unless you are logged on as that user TM has no way to backup the vault.
    so that is why the backup is so small.
    And you cannot remove the file vault because the disk is too small.. you are in catch 22..
    You cannot backup and you cannot remove the vault..
    Login as the user who has the file vault and copy the files off the computer to a directory on the TC.. Then just delete the files on the computer.. that will then allow you to remove the file vault.
    But never  will I ever use file vaults so I am being theoretical .. please read it up yourself.
    http://pondini.org/TM/25.html
    You are not doing the background reading you need to understand what you are doing..
    read the whole of pondini's info.. or at least skim it so you know what is there.
    Avoid like the plague file vaults..
    When disks go belly up, as they always do.. your files will be lost. Somewhere they need to be stored in the clear.. so why bother .. put better security on the computer and forget vaults.

  • How to delete the data from partition table

    Hi all,
    Am very new to partition concepts in oracle..
    here my question is how to delete the data from partition table.
    is the below query will work ?
    delete from table1 partition (P_2008_1212)
    we have define range partition ...
    or help me how to delete the data from partition table.
    Thanks

    874823 wrote:
    delete from table1 partition (P_2008_1212)This approach is wrong - as Andre pointed, this is not how partition tables should be used.
    Oracle supports different structures for data and indexes. A table can be a hash table or index organised table. It can have B+tree index. It can have bitmap indexes. It can be partitioned. Etc.
    How the table implements its structure is a physical design consideration.
    Application code should only deal with the logical data structure. How that data structure is physically implemented has no bearing on application. Does your application need to know what the indexes are and the names of the indexes,in order to use a table? Obviously not. So why then does your application need to know that the table is partitioned?
    When your application code starts referring directly to physical partitions, it needs to know HOW the table is partitioned. It needs to know WHAT partitions to use. It needs to know the names of the partitions. Etc.
    And why? All this means is increased complexity in application code as this code now needs to know and understand the physical data structure. This app code is now more complex, has more moving parts, will have more bugs, and will be more complex to maintain.
    Oracle can take an app SQL and it can determine (based on the predicates of the SQL), which partitions to use and not use for executing that SQL. All done totally transparently. The app does not need to know that the table is even partitioned.
    This is a crucial concept to understand and get right.

  • How to delete aggreagetd data in a cube without deleting the Aggregates?

    Hi Experts,
    How to delete aggreagetd data in a cube without deleting the Aggregates?
    Regards
    Alok Kashyap

    Hi,
    You can deactivate the aggregate. The data will be deleted but structure will remain.
    If you switch off the aggregates it wont be identified by the OLAP processor. report will fetch the data directly from the cube. Switching off the aggreagte won't delete any data,but temporarly the aggregate will not be availbale as if it is not built on the info cube. No reporting is not possible on swtiched off aggregates. The definition of the aggregate is not deleted.
    You can temporarily switch off an aggregate to check if you need to use it. An aggregate that is switched off is not used when a query is executed.This aggregate will be having data from the previous load's. If the aggregate is switched off means it wont be available for reporting but data can be rolled up into it.
    If u deactivate the aggregates the data will be deleted from the aggregates and the aggregate structure will remain the same.
    The system deletes all the data and database tables of an aggregate. The definition of the aggregate is not deleted.
    Later when you need those aggregate once again you have to create it from scratch.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

    Not true at all.
    You only buy the right to your own personal use.

    My understanding is that music syncing is a one way process from computer iTunes to your iPhone.  I think what you are asking is to have IOS synching back to an OSX or PC system.  The software doesn't work that way.
    You either have to uncheck the songs to be synced or create a separate playlist for "BC Canada iPhone" and only sync that playlist.
    As well any purchases you made on your iPhone need to be transferred to your iTunes so they can come back to your phone when you re-sync.
    Hope this helps, even though it's not the answer you might have wanted.
    Cheers

  • HT3275 My time capsule reports an error The backup disk image "/Volumes/Data-1/MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" is already in use.

    Help !
    The last few days my time capsule reports an error       The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use.
    To make things worse I seem to be loosing my screen so need to make a back up ASAP

    Make sure that no other Macs are backing up at the time.
    Pull the power cord from the back of the Time Capsule
    Count to ten
    Plug the power cord back into the back of the Time Capsule
    This will fix the issue about 98% of the time. If you are in the unlucky 2% category, please post back for more assistance
