Time Machine multiple password prompts after 10.5.6 upgrade

Wanted to see if anybody else has noticed this behavior change since upgrading to 10.5.6. I back my MacBook Pro to a network drive shared from my Mac Mini. With 10.5.5 and earlier, I'd mount the network drive, and then set Time Machine to use it. I'd get one password prompt, for the initial mount of the network drive.
Post-10.5.6, I mount the network drive (password prompt #1), and then tell Time Machine to use that drive, and I get another password prompt from Time Machine. I'm not sure why this is, and it seems like a behavior change. Has anybody else noticed these double password prompts after going to 10.5.6?

I have the exact same problem since upgrading to 10.5.6. The time machine arrows start spinning, and then stop with the exclamation point. I look at the dropdown and it says "Latest Backup: Delayed"
When I open Time Machine Preferences, it tells me I have 32.2 GB of 232.7 GB available. And in latest backup, it says "Failed" with the little "i" in the circle. When I click the "i" it tells me "The backup volume could not be mounted."
When I actually look at the contents of the drive (which definitely is mounted) I see a 200GB file (the correct size) named [name of my computer]_[some serial number].sparsebundle. The stuff in brackets is replaced since I don't know if that's the sort of thing that I should post.
What seems odd (although I haven't looked at the volume enough in the past to know if it is odd), is that both the modified date and the creation date are March 27, 2008 which, I believe, is when I first started using time machine.
The only other thing on that drive is a folder, "untitled folder"
That's it. I'm not sure about whether it's trying to backup when not connected, but I think I remember that.
Do these specifics fit with what you can see about the current state of your backup?

  • Time Machine out of space after 10.10.3 upgrade

    After upgrading from 10.10.2 to 10.10.3, Time Machine says I am out of space on my 1 TB Time Capsule. I have 122 GB of space available, but it's saying I need 423 GB to perform a backup. I suspect this is because iPhoto change to Photo and my Time Capsule is now hosting two copies of my photo library: the older one from iPhoto and the newer one from Photo.
    Other than wiping out my Time Capsule and backing up from scratch, any ideas how I can get Time Machine the space it needs? Thanks!

    You will have to erase the Time Capsule drive and re-backup from scratch.

  • Time Machine backups only work after restart

    Hi
    Getting frustrated as Time Machine backups only work after a restart. Work for a few hours and then get stuck with Backing up: XXMB of XXGB. I have left it on this for many hours ie overnight without completion
    I have a Mid 2014 MBP 13 in running 10.10.2
    I backup onto an external USB via a hub.
    Things I have tried with review of Pondini great site which has helped with different TM backup problems.
    Disk permissions and repair of SSD on MBP (were errors but did not solve issue)
    Direct USB connection
    Backup via Airport Extreme
    Re-index spotlight
    Reformat USB disk
    New USB disk!
    Below is log (backupd filtered) of latest backup attempts including final completed occuring after restart.
    Any help gratefully received

    Backup completed successfully.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
    You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
    [Process started]
            Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
            Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
            The test results are on the Clipboard.
            Please close this window.
    [Process completed]
    The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
    Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
    12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but whatever else you're told to do may not be. For others who choose to run it, I don't recommend that you post the test results on this website unless I asked you to.

  • How to avoid multiple password prompt for intarnet portal

    we have developed a intranet portal in Share Point 2013 with multiple site collection. when accessing through IE, Chrome, we can do settings to avoid multiple password prompt by adding the domain name of site in Trusted sites. How we can achieve the same in Safari while accessing through MAC or IPAD

    first time when you call the BSP application from the browser (or by double clicking the BSP_APPLICATION link from SAP GUI) you need to pass user credentials. For further windows this will not be required as browser will remember your info.
    if you need to <b>somehow</b> avoid this then the only option is to hard code the user id and password in the service in transaction SICF or by passing the same via URL.
    Another option is that if you port this application in a SAP portal environment, SSO can be used .
    Hope this helps.
    Regards
    Raja

  • Why is Time machine backup not working after Mavericks upgrade?

    Why is Time machine backup not working after Mavericks upgrade?

    I had the same problem due to the Fire Wire port.  Apple tested it told me it is OK!, I tried a new cable, and have tested both ports on my back up device.  I find it strange that as soon as I installed Mavericks.  The drive does work using USB.  It could be a coincidence, I don't absolutely know at this point, my back up drive ports could stop working, but I doubt it!

  • Time Machine says Backup Delayed After Upgrading to Lion

    Time Machine says Backup Delayed After Upgrading to Lion on both my Macs. It backs up fine when ever I connect to the USB drive but now seems to want to back up hourly when before weekly was OK. When it does not compleye an hourly backup it reports a delayed backup - failure on both machines. How do it revert back to it reminding me to do weekly backups?

    I'm having the same issue with Time Machine on OS X Lion!
    According to this webpage:     http://web.me.com/pondini/AppleTips/LionChanges.html
    Backups (i.e., Time Machine, SD, CCC, etc.) will only save the current "Version" of files.
    The above statement sounds like the issue @iJRB and myself are having after upgrading to Lion where Time Machine shows the following error message below within "System Preferences > Time Machine"
    @iJRB: Is this the error message you are seeing?

  • Time Machine does not start after external hard drive is connected

    Time Machine does not start after external hard drive is connected

    These are the iCloud storage options: http://www.apple.com/icloud/includes/lightbox-storage.html
    Also bear in mind that:
    1. restoring data over icloud takes time
    2. iCloud is not designed as a replacement to Time Machine.

  • Time Machine backup not working after Mountain Lion Install

    Oh my.  It seems that Mountain Lion and Lion Server are different species and cannot be interbred!  Is this really true?
    I am running OSX Lion Server on a late 2009 iMac with the main purpose of allowing the MacBook Pros in the house (both running Lion 10.7.4) to wirelessly back up to Time Machine.  All has gone well until I upgraded one of the MacBooks to Mountain Lion.  Now it appears that Time Machine via the server is no longer available on that MacBook.  Also, the Server Admin app is also disabled. 
    My questions are:
    Is it necessary to upgrade to OSX Server if I wish to use the server a Time Machine target for Mabooks running Mountain Lion? 
    If I do upgrade to OSX Server, is it also necessary to upgrade all the Macbooks to Mountain Lion? 
    Is OSX Server stable enough to bother with at this time?
    Thanks in advance for your replies!

    Well I can have a go at answering you questions
    Is it necessary to upgrade to OSX Server if I wish to use the server a Time Machine target for Mabooks running Mountain Lion?
    I'm not sure about this one as it didn't check before I upgraded my server to Mountain Lion but I would be suprised if a Lion Server (10.7.4) could not back up a Mountain Lion (10.8) client
    If I do upgrade to OSX Server, is it also necessary to upgrade all the Macbooks to Mountain Lion?
    No, I am running a mix of 10.8 and 10.7.4 clients with a 10.8 server and they all backup with Time Machine.
    Is OSX Server stable enough to bother with at this time?
    This is a very subjective area - my server is running well using Mountain Lion, it's not used heavily as it's mainly for backing up a few clients, running the built in wiki, web server, calendar and contacts.  It's running fine and I like the additions enough to put up with the bugs [single sign on / kerberos is the one impacting me].  However if you search here you can find other who are having many more issues. This one is a personal choice you'll have to make.
    For the server app, you have to run the same version across the server and the client to use it, you can always use screen share to get to the server and run the server app directly on the server.  This is what I do when using a 10.7.4 client.
    Hope this helps with you decisions.

  • Hard drive packed up, but had Time Machine backup. I installed new sad and upgraded to Mountain Lion., but I can't find iPhoto library and photos or iTunes songs? Is there an answer to this?  Graham

    Hard drive packed up, but had Time Machine backup. I installed new ssd and upgraded to Mountain Lion, but I can't find iPhoto library and photos or iTunes songs? Is there an answer to this?  A backup run did not install either photos or songs. Graham

    Thanks so much but none of that helped.  It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive.  I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
    Thank you for your help and replying to this.  Guess I made my own issue!

  • Restore encrypted Time Machine backup: password failure

    hi,
    I upgraded my mid 09 MBP with an SDD and created a Fusion Drive maintaining my HDD in the optical bay. After rebooting and wanting to restore from a Time Machine Backup, I'm prompted with a password request of the disk image, being the password I used to encrypt the TM when creating it.
    No matter how I enter the password, it says it's not correct and I can't proceed.
    Finally I created in a fresh setup of Mavericks. Once I'm in my Mac, When going to Time Machine, I see my Time Capsule drive on the network, and entering the encryption password, I can indeed access my Sparse Bundle.
    I have to say that my password contains a space at the end of the password (it slipped in by copying the password by accident) and I think it might be the reason it's not accepting it as the valid password when in recovery/setup mode.. Either way, I've tried the password with and without the space so...
    In Disk Utility, I've had the disk listed but the change password feature is disabled..
    I've looked thru different forums, but no luck so far.
    Anyone who has had the same issue or has a clue on how to either change the encryption password or how to install the full backup I have in my sparse bundle, it would be highly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance.

  • Time machine is non functional after last OS update

    I am unable to back up my I mac. When I click on the TM button it brings up a prompt that says " You haven't selected a location for time machine backups". When i click "set up Time Machine" it brings up a new TM window that shows the TM is "off". When I click the option on the left that that says "select back up disc", it brings up a new window that has one option only "other Airport Time Capsule". If I click onto that it opens a new grey window with a globe on it and it says "no configured airport base stations have been found. Airport utility will continue searching". If I try to turn the TM to the on position it brings up the same window scenario described above. This worked fine since 2009 and with the last major OS update it went bad....
    I was a pc guy before getting our macs and so this world is different, I have had NO problems with any of our macs since 2009, this is the first time and it started with the last OS update...our printer is not working either unless its hard wired to one of our 2 computers...again new issue since the last OS update. I have done a hard reboot on the Airport/TM and that didn't do anything. I wonder if it needs to be reloaded onto the IMAC, not really sure how to do that either.
    Thanks for any help/consideration you could give. Peter

    You need to do a full reset.. Yosemite wants to control and own everything.
    1. Full factory reset.
    Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
    N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
    2. It will now show up in Airport Utility.
    Redo the setup but do not accept apple recommended names.. use short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    3. Wireless should have WPA2 Personal with pure alphanumeric password.
    4. Your computer share name is well advised to be short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. (just remember your windows days.. apple is now using windows networking by default.. they began in Mavericks. when did you problems start.. oh yeah.. in mavericks.. hmm.. connected?? I think so!!)
    5. Make sure in network preferences for whatever connection you use IPv6 is set to link-local only.
    6. Manually mount the TC in finder if you still cannot connect in TM. Do this using top menu, Go, Connect to server.
    Type in AFP://TCname.local (TCname is your new short name.. local is default domain).
    Or AFP://TCIPaddress (eg 10.0.1.1 the IP you can find by the summary on the TC in airport utility).
    Type in and save the password for disk access in your keychain.. this is important.
    7. If it stops the day after you set it up.. welcome to Yosemite.. reboot the TC.. make sure it is mounted in Finder and try again.
    8. Use a replacement backup utility.. eg Carbon Copy Cloner to a USB drive.. much more reliable.

  • Retrieve backed up emails from Time machine in snow leopard after downgrading from Lion?

    I installed Lion, but after putting up with it for the last month with problems like: computer crashes, slowing my computer to an unbelievably dismal speed and computer freezes at least once a day, I have now reformatted my hard drive. I have reinstalled Snow Leopard and restored all my settings, folders and applications from a time machine backup.
    However, I am now back in my desktop (that's another story as all of a sudden it asked me for a password, even though I've never created one to log in) and on snow leopard- BUT I have no address book contacts and as for my email- well my email accounts appear in mail, but all my emails are lost (sent, received, inbox.... nothing there).
    I desperately need those emails back as I run my own business and this has just been a nightmare. I thought that after reformatting and then restoring from a time machine back up life would go back to normal but obviously not.
    Can anyone please shed some light on where I would find the folder in my time machine back up to cut and paste back over for snow leopard to show my emails again?
    Thanks in advance.

  • How to restore Time Machine multiple drives

    Hey, fellow Mac-ers.  I have a new situation for me, and some questions on how Time Machine works.  I have a Macbook Pro, bought it from Apple, set up Time Machine, and voila, everything is awesome.  But, now I have upgraded it to a second hard drive (made the Superdrive external), and Time Machine appears to be backing up the iTunes and iPhoto libraries that I moved to the second drive.  Great.
    A.  But, let's say the worst happens - how do I restore it?
    A.1.  Let's say I have to buy a new hard drive, this one with double-capacity, so can I restore both drives to the one?
    A.2.  Or, let's say the second drive (a standard hard disk instead of SSD) dies, can I just restore that volume?
    A.3.  Or, let's just say I have 2 new blank hard drives, will Time Machine just restore volume-to-volume like it was backed up?
    B.  That takes me back to, how does Time Machine work after all?  It seems to have automatically recognized the new volume and included that in the backups, but I am inferring that from the total data size it says it is backing up.
    B.1.  How can I tell for sure? I see where I can exclude from backup, but nowhere where I can include, or a list of backed up folders/volumes.  I guess I can open Finder to a folder on the new volume, and enter Time Machine - that should show a stack of folders back through time.
    B.2.  On the new volume, what exactly is it backing up?  Everything?  I noticed it didn't back up everything from my boot volume - it probably only backs up /Applications, /Users, things like that - but not /etc, /var, or other stuff where I may have edited scripts and config files.  My cron jobs were gone after restore.

    Exactly what happens with Time Machine (TM) in yosemite is somewhat of a mystery to all of us.
    But if you want to know some basics of how TM works.. it is here.
    http://pondini.org/OSX/Home.html
    Read at least the first two articles.. and at least glance over FAQ and Troubleshooting so you know what is in there.
    The stuff at the bottom of the home page about using TM as recovery is also very helpful albeit rather old.
    TM is designed to be very automated.. and not require user intervention on any major scale. So lots of times people do not know that their backups are not working or have failed.
    I think you are better reading the background than me jumping in to answer the specifics.. except to say the multiple volumes is covered in Q32 of FAQ.
    You will also see that finding out the exact details of what TM is doing is not super easy.
    Read Q7-8 in the FAQ.
    But the guy who wrote it all up.. James Pond died a couple of years ago now so it is not up to date past Mountain Lion. Most of it is still relevant.. but Yosemite has been very unreliable.
    I have taken to recommending people use an alternative.. there are several third party backups.. The first article you read from above will show you how TM is different from the clone type backups.. let me encourage you to use a cloner. I use Carbon Copy Cloner. It costs $40 but can produce a bootable clone to any external drive. The end result is a backup you can test in a matter of moments that it works. And as a clone it copies everything. That doesn't stop you using TM.. it is excellent for what it does.. (once we get past the buggy introduction of Yosemite at least).
    There are a number listed.. Superduper has long been popular and Chronosync has also got a following. I find CCC works great.. but I am not connected.. and I paid my $40 and will have to pay to upgrade when I can stomach Yosemite for more than an hour, so I am not on a free ride.

  • Time Machine/Capsule Password stress-PLEASE HELP

    I just bought a Time Capsule and am trying to set up my first back-up on Time Machine. The problem is that when I am prompted to enter my username and password to "access the file server", I plug the info in and it says that it's invalid! I went back and reset everything and checked all my username and password stuff and nothing works. I even re-started in "safe" mode and then started again and nothing. I would call into Mac Support but the iPhone 3G came out today and they are swamped with phone calls. Can anyone help me? I don't want to sit on the phone for hours on hold... :o(

    Nope, it didn't change anything. I am getting really frustrated! Any other suggestions? I have also made sure that I am teh administrator on the computer and checked all my passwords and user names to be sure they are what they are supposed to be. sigh

  • Help needed with Time Machine multiple drives set up

    Hello, I need help in finding out if what I want to do is possible.
    I upgraded to Mountain Lion today as I understood it can handle multiple back up drives. I see how to add a 2nd back up drive, however I do not see a way to put different folders onto different drives.
    iMac - backed to a 3TB DRIVE A via the time machine
    iPhoto Library original file - already on the 3TB DRIVE A - so no back up for now!
    What I'd like to do is to also back up only the iPhotoLibrary file to a 2nd drive - lets call it 3TB DRIVE B
    Can it be done with Mountain Lion or not really? I don't even seem to be able to exclude files from an External Disk actually.
    Any other software I could use that would do the trick?
    Or do I have to rearrange our already messy set up? I've put the iPhoto Library on the DRIVE A as its a faster drive. but I guess the solution would be to put the iPhoto Library original file onto the slower Drive B and only keep the iPhoto file on it?
    Hmm any help or tips greatly appreciated.
    Thank you in advance.

    So here's my question: After reinstalling system TM started normal back-up procedure and I get message not enough space on external disk. I use 200Gb for around 100Gb that I have on my computer (I know not so much but works well for me). What I do not get is why does TM need around 30% more space compared to the space I'm using (wants to back-up 130Gb) and why is it not backing-up the system I've just installed but tries to back-up everything from scratch? Is there a procedure to back-up only changed files since the last version?
    Ordinarily, that's exactly what TM does. But this situation isn't ordinary. Everything you restored is considered "*new to that disk"* and will be backed-up again. See #14 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip* at the top of this forum, and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1338
    The 30% you ask about is actually 20%; the initial estimate of the space needed might be low, and TM needs workspace on the TM disk, so it adds 20% (see #7 in the FAQ Tip.)
