Time Machine freezes when loaded

Hi - I've been using time machine with my laCie 1 tb external firewire 800 drive for a while. No issues. Backups are made and I can restore. Then a few weeks ago my problem began. Now, I click on the Time Machine button in the dock and time machine loads up as normal. I am able to select a date and time machine will graphically flow back to that date but then it will freeze. No file can be selected, no other date can be selected, the restore button doesn't work nor does the "cancel" button. I can do nothing except "force quit" TM. I've done a check on the external drive and I can write to it. I've also run the disk repair utility and it reports all is fine. I have NO idea what is going on and can't get TM to work properly. Any suggestions???
Greg

Are you running anti-virus software? It is known to cause problems with both backups AND viewing the Time Machine "time travel" interface.
Are you using Spaces in Mac OS? Try switching to Space #1 and launching Time Machine.
Let us know if this was helpful.
Cheers!

  • Time Machine Freezes When Opened

    Hi,
    I have looked thru the threads in this section to see if anyone else was having the same issue before posting. If I overlooked the post please forgive me.
    What happens is, I click on the time machine icon and it opens. Sometimes it works fine. I can go forward and backward in time or select cancel and I am back to my desktop. However sometimes when I click on the icon, the cascaded windows come up and the background moves, but that is all that happens. I cannot go backward in time and I cannot cancel out of it. The only way I can get out of it unless someone tells me different is to hold the power button down until the mini turns off.
    It does not do this all the time. Is there some sort of update or fix that will take care of the problem?
    I am using an intel Mac Mini with OS X 10.5.5
    I just purchased this approx 2 weeks ago
    Thanks in advance for your help

    Well.. The first few backups did ok.. Now the external drive light is out and the TM says it is preparing the backup. It has been saying this for a while. When I click on open time machine preferences it will not open. Here is a copy of the current log.
    Could there be a problem with this drive? As I mentioned it is a 200 gig that was taken from a PC and installed in an external case and formatted with GUID.

  • Time Machine Freezing when moving files it's backing up?

    Hi, once in a while time machine will freeze up and I can't do anything with my external drive or any of its partitions unless I disconnect and reconnect them. I couldn't figure out what it was until I realized I had moved a new movie file at the same time Time Machine was probably backing it up.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?

    That will happen with most backup utilities. If they don't freeze they certainly will become very confused. You should never do something like that during backups.
    Ideally the backup utility shouldn't freeze but I don't think most programmers anticipate such an action so the utility has no built-in mechanism for dealing with it gracefully. So I think you should file a bug report with Apple. You can do so at the Feedback Page.

  • Time machine freezes when i open it 10.8.2

    So everytime i open time machine to restore a file i can't cycle through my windows i can see the stars moving in the background but nothing is reponsive ??

    I have the same problem.... what is your is adress?

  • LA Times eEdition freezes when loading

    I'm a subscriber to the LA Times eEdition.  This morning, when opening the email tablet link to the  application (Olive Software), the program would not load beyond the "Olive Software/LA Times eEdition logo page.  I've tried re-booting my iPad and still the problem persists.  How do I reset this page or reset Safari?  I tried a Internet search for a fix - to no avail.  A call to the Los Angeles Times didn't help either,  Anyone else experience this problem and have a helpful suggestion to fix it?

    Try reset the cache, cookie and history.
    Last page of this pdf file has the instruction
    It worked for me!
    I got my Eedition back!!!

  • Time Machine "freezes" and I am NOT running anti-virus software

    I am incredibly frustrasted and disappointed as a first-time Apple user (brand new iMac (Intel-based) with an external LaCie 500 GB external hard disk). The problem is Time Machine. It backs up on schedule, but when I enter Time Machine, I cannot navigate at all. The background screen (outer space) moves, the cursor moves, but I cannot click on anything. I have to "force quit". So I guess I have things backed up, but can't do anything with them.
    I am NOT running antivirus software. I had Intego loaded on the computer, but removed it completely after reading on Apple blogs that this could interfere with Time Machine. I have reformatted the external hard disk. Still, Time Machine freezes. Apple has put out a couple of patches, I understand, but that was months ago and all of my software is up to date.
    I have called Apple support TWICE and they act as if I am from the moon -- how dare I question that the Time Machine does not work properly?
    Does anyone out there know how to fix this? I am ready to return this computer to the Apple store, which cheerfully sold me on the idea of an external hard disk as a back-up.

    Hello Zurichmike (lovely country):
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    There are several things you could try. Easy ones first:
    Erase and reformat your external HD.
    Run repair disk from your software install DVD (on your internal HD).
    Go to Macintosh HD>library>preferences. Trash the TM preference file (com.apple.timemachine.plist) and restart. The TM preferences will need to be changed as they are now default values.

  • Extension Manager CS6 freezes when loading extensions

    Extension Manager CS6 freezes when loading extensions
    When launching Extension Manager CS6 it starts loading extensions but totally freezes when the last 30 percent of the loading extension bar is still unaccomplished. It is not possible to close the window, not even with the task manager.  I have restart the computer to get rid of it.
    My OS is Windows 7, 64 bit. The most recent versions of the entire Adobe CS family are installed, freshly updated, including the Extension Manager CS6.
    To trace the cause of the problem I tried to create a log file in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Extension Manager CS6. I logged in as administrator and wrote in the Command Prompt Window:
    echo > ExManLog.YES
    The log file was created but contains nothing but "ECHO is on".
    A possible cause of the problem might be that I have two installed active version of Ajatix Advanced CSS Drop Down Menu, which is an add-on to Dreamweaver. The first version is the free one, the second is the full paid version. I would like to deactivate the first one since which might make the Extension Manager happier. But the only way to deactivate it that I know of is to use the Extension Manager. Catch 22.

    Dear Carl, thanks for the advice that made me understand how to remove an extension without using the Extension Manager. However, the problem persists, i.e the Extension Manager freezes soon after it is launched, when the last 30 percent of the loading extension bar is still unaccomplished.
    Following your instruction I have tried to remove both my versions of the troublesome DW extension (Ajatix Advanced CSS Drop Down Menu). Which in my case meant that I deleted the following files:
    the files com.ajatix.AdvancedCSSMenuLight.mxi, com.ajatix.AdvancedCSSMenuLight.mxi_air and com.ajatix.AdvancedCSSMenuLight.zxp in C:\Users\<My UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\EM Store\Dreamweaver CS6
    and the files ajxcssmenu2.3.0.mxi, ajxcssmenu2.3.0.mxi_air and ajxcssmenu2.3.0.mxp in C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\EM Store\Dreamweaver CS6
    In the hope of cleaning out everything from this extension I have also deleted the following files:
    AJXCSSMenu.chm, AJXCSSMenu.dll in C:\Users\UpdatusUser\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration\JSExtensions
    and AJXCSSMenu.chm, AJXCSSMenu.dll, AJXCSSMenuLight.chm, AJXCSSMenuLight.dll in C:\Users\ipb-master\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration\JSExtensions
    Every time I thus get rid of the Ajitex files the Extension Manager seems happy and loads the only extension I currently have left (Adobe exchange). However when I reinstall the Ajitex extension, the Extension Manager behaves in the same bad manner, freezes after approximately 70 percent of the process of loading extensions. Same thing when I remove this extension and try to install another from Ajitex (Email Spam Blocker). It seems to install all right but afterward the Extension Manager freezes when launched.
    Don't know what to do now.

  • Lion + Macbook Pro 17 + Time Machine = Freeze

    I recently upgraded to OS X Lion on my mid-2009 MBP 17" and I am also getting complete system lockups - the mouse moves, but no keyboard, no clicks, no window movements, and all menu bar items stop updating, including the system clock.  Power cycle is the only solution.  This is happening often while a Time Machine update is running on my external drive (after it's been running for several minutes).  I believe it has also occured with video playback (as others have reported), but not often.  I'm not sure if it is related to waking from hibernate/sleep; e.g., last night's big 60GB Time Machine backup ran ok (took several hours), but this morning, after waking the machine and working for a while, it kicked off again and froze at the 90MB mark (of 270MB) right after I clicked on the menu bar icon to view progress.  I had an xterm window and Firefox open, plus a few utilties like Adium.  No video playing anywhere.
    Any others?
    Other notes:  8GB ram; no "Automatic Graphics Switching" option on Preferences pane, probably b/c this is a 2009 MBP(?).

    I see nobody is reacting to your problem.
    I have (almost) the same problem, but with 10.7.5.
    Not only Time Machine freezes up (over WiFi and USB-connected), but also my Music downloads (everything else works fine) to my iPhone 5 (with  iTunes 11.1) and also Spotlight (indexing for minutes and then freezes).
    All these 3 actions (which usually take longer than anything else) freeze up after 3 to 15 minutes. Never the same, always different durations. Very annoying.
    On the other hand: ever since I disabled Spotlight, my MacBook Pro A1286 is as fast as when I bought it in 2009.
    This all happened suddenly, out of the blue. No added software, hardware. No changes in prefs.
    I had my hardware checked. I have done a memtest. All the tricks in the book. To no avail.
    Aopple techs tell me to wait till Maverick......some solution ;-)

  • Time Capsule freezes when transferring files

  • Time machine freezes during back-up.

    Time machine freezes during back-up. Have to unplug HD before I can regain controll over Time Machine In System Preferences. Tried loading folders the old fachion way—sometimes freezes during that also.
    At first I thought I had a bad exteral HD, but I am on my fourth and still the same problem. My first Time Machine HD (THAT WORKED) now has the same problem.
    I have been working with someone with apple support for weeks. We just replaced the interal HD, and still have the same problem. My iMac is only five months old
    Any ideas ? ? ? .

    you sure this is a Mac Pro and not a MacBook Pro first. Most every report  of issues with bus powered like Passport are best solved using a drive case with its own power instead.

  • Time Machine Freezes and Corrupts Disk

    Hello,
    I have been attempting to set up one of my external hard drives for use in Time Machine, but every time I click "Erase" when Time Machine asks me to, Time Machine freezes, and my Hard Drive gets corrupt. After force quitting Time Machine and mounting my drive again, it says "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer." I have had to go back to a PC on numerous occasions and format the disk as FAT32, and then come back and try it again. I have attempted to erase the disk through Disk Utility, but the same error occurs.
    I am attempting to do this with a 100GB Store-It drive by Hitatchi. Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions as to how I can solve this issue.
    Thanks,
    Thomas

    I had the same problem with a new 120GB WD external 2.5" HDD. It seems to perform the initial backup then gets frozen at the very end of the first actualization, CPU running at 100%. Doesn't mount any more, DU shows it but declares it as non-repairable because of different issues: index faulty, B-tree header faulty etc. The same on another Mac. Re-formatting leads to the same results.
    What to do?

  • Safari slow and freezes when loading pages

    Hi I've been having a problem with Safari for the past few months it frequently freezes when loading web pages, sometimes it will eventually load, other times it wont. the blue progress bar in the address bar stops on about 10% with a plain white page it doesn't happen all the time but disturbingly it happens on pages as simple as Google search, not just data heavy sites. other symptoms include having to click links several times to get them to respond and I get the you are not connected to the Internet page when I go to some sites only to try another page from my bookmarks and it will load perfectly.
    Any help greatly appreciated its driving me nuts.

    After updating my MacBook Pro to yeosemite I want my old desktop picture back. I did a full back up before the install. I found the "Settings" folder in Time machine but when I try to open it I get an error message saying "You can not open this folder. It is in TimeMachine".

    Can you browse the Time Machine drive from Finder?
    If you can and you know where the picture was stored ie on your desktop you can browse through the folder structure to the picture copy it and paste it somewhere on your new install before right clicking it and 'set as desktop background'
