Time machine keeps giving me an ERROR message
I got time machine in late December and it does not work all the time.
Lately, Especially, when I click onto the icon in my top "toolbar?" it keeps saying LATEST BACKUP DELAYED and then;when I click onto those words; a box comes up and says LATEST Backup FAILED, (in RED letters). I then click on the red dot that has the white I in it and I get the message " TIME MACHINE ERROR Backup Volume not found."
This does not happen all the time and SOMETIMES I can do a manual back up but not always.
I have even told it to not back up all but a few necessary things but----!
What do I do?
See Mac OS X 10.5- Time Machine - "The backup volume could not be found" alert.

Time Machine keeps giving me an error message when I try to back up to my Lacie drive.
Time Machine keeps giving me an error message when I try to back up to my Lacie drive. It won't back up and I can't find where to fix it.
I was having the same problem with my LaCie hard drives, both of them had errors like that and wouldn't eject properly. They would be fine after turning off and then remounting and so on, but then it would start again after a while. So I looked on LaCie's web site for any software updates and I found a usb firmware update from last October and applied it to both drives and now they're perfect. Sorry, I can't find it on their web site right now, but you might want to remember this if it persists and apply the update if you haven't.

Trying to download iTunes 11.1 but it keeps giving me an error message saying:
The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package "iTunes64.msi" in the box below.
Use Source:iTunes.msi
Perfect, thanks.
Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -
My iPod touch 4th gen. Keeps giving me the error message "cannot connect to the app store when I sign in. I can open the app store and browse it but I can't download anything. I have full signal strength with my wi-fi and safari is working perfect. I turned it off and restarted it 3 times now. I have an iPad 2 and the app store works flawlessly with it. What is going on?
Same here on my lpad2. Can access the web just fine from browsers but cannot install new apps or updates in appl store. Seeing a few others reporting same issue tonight so likely an apple server issue and staff will notice it in network monitors and fix it...sometime this weekend.

HT201250 My time machine is giving me an error.
My time machine is giving me this error: The backup disk image “/Volumes/Steven C's Time Capsul/Linda’s MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use.It had been backing up fine for years and now all of a sudden it is not. I'm not sure how to fix it. Thanks
The possiblility of recovery according to pondini is remote.. You history is history.. You have no choice but to start over.
I would actually recommend an erase of the TC.. and use the one pass low level format to ensure the drive itself is still good.
Read over Pondini's reply again as he has already answered your questions.
eg
•If your backups are on a Time Capsule’s internal HD, see the green box in #Q6 of Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule. The "archived" backups will still be marked as damaged, but you may be able to view and restore some things from them.
ie it is possible but unlikely as they are damaged beyond recovery.. You can run a repair and see if it fixes it.. I would consider building a sand castle to hold back a tidal wave would be equally useful use of your time. If you want decent backups.
1. Use ethernet.
2. Or use local backup disk.. not network. A local disk is cheaper, faster and more reliable than network.
3. Use Crashplan or CCC or Chronosync etc. Keep a disk image of whatever setup you want.. and do not add incrementals to it. They become less reliable when you add more than an image. Use a backup that can produce a bootable image.. and you will then have the ability to recover your computer.. TM can then add the bits you are missing.
Other backup software is not as good as TM at keeping files that you need in many version. They are less complicated but more reliable. -
My computer keeps giving me an error message "non sysetm disk or disk error replace and strike any
My computer keeps giving me an error message "non systne disk or disk error replace and strike any key when ready" It is a HP elite notebook. WHen I strike any key it looks as though it is running scripts and return to the above error. Is there a way to reset the computer to a point in time when it function normally?
My suggestion is to start unit and press F10 to get into BIOS. Navigate to Diagnostics and select Hard Disk Self Test. This will test your Hard Drive for errors and failure. If the hard drive does not pass both tests, you will need to replace the hard drive and obtain recovery disks.
I work for HP.

why does iTunes keep giving me bogus error messages. "Your internet connection is not working, check your connection and try again." My internet is working fine. iTunes is not working and will not allow me to download tunes.
This my sound too simple, but I just kept clikning on the arrow next to the selected music and it finally "Kicked" in.

When I try to save a file from my GarageBand to my PC it keeps giving me a error message . Message says could not be copied because error occurred. The file cannot be found. Any suggestions?
I was trying to upload from my iPad to my pc.
That was hard for us to guess, from your post It might have helped to mention the iPad.
How are you trying to save the song to your PC? Are you sending the song to iTunes? If yes, as a project or as an audio file? Make sure, you select "AAC" and not "GarageBand", when you share the song from your iPad.
If the clip is not too large, you might alternately try to share it by mail, see:

App world keeps giving me the error message
I have a blackberry Q10 and everytime I try and download something from the app world it keeps giving me the error message of ' an error has occured. Please try again later' this started happening when I upgraded my app world.
Hi and Welcome to the Community!
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (step 1 should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive
2) Reboot
Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. IF this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support. Also check your BB10 OS level to be sure it also is up to date.
Good luck!

I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.

When I try to do the iOS7 update, it keeps giving me an error message saying "an error has occured in dowloading." What could this mean? It doesn't tell me anything specific as the error...?
Got the same thing. Was in the middle of the download (11 mins remaining) and a blasted text message came through. Answered it, like a moron, and when I went back to download it gave me the error.. Very annoying. Anyway, perseverence paid off as after 10th or something re-attempt, it began again. (32 mins remaining). Like the guy above says. Severs will be going mental at the moment so stick with it.
