Time machine error - the back up disk is not available. Time machine no longer backs up.

My time machine quit backing up 2 weeks ago. How can I fix it?

Did you try the simple stuff?? Reboot the TC.. next.. reboot the whole network restarting in correct order?? ie modem.. TC.. client computers.. with 2min gap.
No luck we need to know more..
What modem.. is it a router?
What TC.. what firmware.. how is it connected?
What OS on the computer?

  • When trying to back up to a WD My Passport I get a message that says the back up disk is not available.  Any ideas?

    When trying to back up to a WD My Passport I get a message that says the back up disk is not available.  Any ideas?

    Find and run the Disk Utility program. In the list on the left side of the program window you should see two hard drives - the internal Mac drive and one labeled with Western Digital's name. (Not exactly sure how the WD drives appear.) Under each of those drives there will be another indented drive name. See picture below.
    If you don't see two drives there's your problem - for some reason the Mac doesn't recognize that there's an external drive plugged in. Check cables, etc.
    More than likely though you will see the two drives. See how in the picture I've selected the indented drive icon? Do the same for your WD drive. Now look at the bottom where it says Format. To use TimeMachine your format needs to be Mac OS Extended (journaled) and I'm betting it doesn't. After you've done that TM will be able to use the drive.

  • Error-The RFC destination EDSCLNT900 is not available in ICWC

    Hi,
    You have to maintaine RFC Destination EDSCLNT900 in the CRM system.
    generally we have to maintain RFC (t-code SM59) in the sytem where Function Module is present.
    Suppose you are having FM in ECC system  and you want to call in CRMsystem,  then you have to maintain RFC destination (EDSCLNT900) in ECC system.
    Thanks & Regards.

  • Lost preferences and when requesting a batch operation  the  error "The command "Batches" is currently not available."

    For CS6 when I started to work again I had lost screen preferences and when tried to run a batch operation I got the message "The command "Batches" is currently not available."  Where are these files stored and how can I restore them?

    Found IT !!!   For Windows - go to users appdata folder and windows has a file restore function.  restored Actions Palette.psp and Adobe Photoshop X64 CS6 Prefs.psp files to previous versions.  Works great.

  • Time Machine; The back up disk is not available

    Hello,
    I have a time machine that has failed to sync since April.  I am problem solving now.  I deleted the backup disk in order to begin fresh and followed some threads on how to do so.  I restarted the back up, now it is telling me the disk is unavialable.  Any ideas?

    Best to erase the Time Capsule drive correctly and then start over.  (This will wipe the drive clean, so be sure to move any other data that you might have on the Time Capsule drive to another location)
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the next box
    Click the Disks icon at the top of the next window
    Click Erase
    Choose the Quick Erase option....will only take a minute or two
    Click Erase Disk
    Then, set the path again for backups as above in the previous post and give it a go

  • "Time machine error, The disk image cannot be mounted" What can I do??

    I ran the time machine. Then, "preparing backup" showed up for a long time. After that, a window pop out: "Time machine error, The disk image cannot be mounted" What is disk image? What can I do (I can't back up anything)
    P.S. I use time capsule for backup. there were no problem on connection

    I'm having the same issue. I do not have TC as my base station. It says right in the book that if you choose, you do not have to have it run as your router, just as a part of your existing wireless network. All software is up to date and I have already shortened the name of both my TC and TC disc to 6 characters and no spaces! I've already spoken with someone today about this. He really didn't know. Have tried backing up both wirelessly and directly connecting with an Ethernet cord. I had to finally call because when I attempted to register the product to get online support, apple.com didn't recognize the serial number!!! The gentleman on the phone got it registered for me. I bought the TC from an official apple store and for whatever reason when he put in the serial number his computer said that this TC was so "old" I guess that there was technically "no support." That basically means that even though my parents just purchased this for me a week before Christmas, that it was made a year ago and the warranty is not good?? I need to do more research on that. Right now I am very unhappy about this. I am a firm apple user and have been for years, but this is frustrating.
    I had read somewhere else (not sure I've been searching apple for what seems like forever now) to make sure that the TC was showing up in "devices" of the Finder. Mine doesn't show up there, but rather in the "Network" window. Is this an issue? If it is, can anyone tell me how to fix that. I have Time Machine backing up to my TC, so I do not see why it would be.
    UPDATE: I just opened up my TC on the "Shared" section of the Finder window and deleted the old "sparsebundle" (I had no clue that anything had backed up way back at 3:30pm on Dec 29) and now I get a slightly new message: Time Machine Error: The backup disc image could not be created." So now the word "mounted" is replaced with "created." This error showed up a lot sooner than the original one. Ok, no clue. I am going to try to Change the Disc again, and try again. I will post another update.

  • The Binding of Isaac is not available on your current platform.

    Hello,
    I'm trying to play to the The Binding of Isaac, a game on steam.
    When I press on the "PLAY NOW" button I get the error "The Binding of Isaac is not available on your current platform.", although it is available on Linux (and my friends can play it on Ubuntu).
    I'm running Arch 64, multilib repository is of course enabled, and everything is updated.
    Anybody has any clue?

    Then you should just ask your friends, because there is no Binding of Isaac for Steam for Linux, because the developer doesn't have the source code anymore and can't provide the game for Steam for Linux.
    So your friends are either magicians, that can play games on a platform, that the developer itself is not able to provide support for, or they don't play it on Steam for Linux.

  • HT3275 TIME MACHINE ERROR: The backup disk image "/Volumes/Data/Sean McGuire's MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" could not be created (error 1).

    I can select a disk (Time Capsule) and initiate the backup.  It only "waits to back up" then "making backup disk available" and remains frozen there.  I tried to update the software a while back and was unsuccessful, I think that may be the issue.
    Any insight would be greatly appreciated.  This is the error message I receive.

  • 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).
