Time machine taking days...
Hello! New in this of mac computers. I got my Macbook air new version, and the time machine is taking forever (now it is saying around 19 days, and evolving from 10 MB to 10 MB every half an hour. The hard drive is a Lacie with USB 3.0, and not sure why it is taking such a long time... Any advice? (There are like 50 gb in my hard drive, and I have not updated to Mountain Lion...)
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console 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. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes) in the String Matching text field. You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard." Note the timestamp of the last such message. Clear the text field and scroll back in the log to that time. Post the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear.
Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don't post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
Some personal information, such as the names of your files, may be included — edit that out, too, but don’t remove the context.

Time machine 10 day reminder is missing
Time machine 10 day reminder is missing. How do I turn that option in Yosemite back on? using Macbook pro
Yes, unfortunately, the Recovery HD doesn't get restored. That's been requested, but hasn't happened yet, obviously.
You have to reinstall Mountain Lion (that won't disturb anything else). If you saved the installer, just run it again. If not, and if your backups are on an external HD, there should be a copy of it there you can use to get a fresh copy of OSX and install it. See the green box in Using the Recovery HD.
Or, the CarbonCopyCloner app has a "disk center" that I believe can create one. I use CCC, but haven't done that myself, but have seen a number of posts saying it does work. -
I just bought a WD 2 TB hard drive. I hae 247.3 gigs to back up, and this is the first time on this 3.0 speed harddrive plugged directly into my macbook bro's 2.0 usb hub (10.7.4, 2.7ghz intel core i7, 4gb 1333 mhz ddr3) and it is saying about 23 days??? This doesn't seem right, because I have backed this up before for the first time on an older external that I was afraid was failing (2.0 usb) and I think it did it in one night....any suggestions? thank you in advance!
Well...I called microcenter tech support and found otu that "My Book Essential WDBACWOO20HBK 2TB superspeed usb 3.0 external desktop hard drive (western digital) is having LOTS of problems with Time Machine. So in other words, taking it back and getting a different brand!

Time Machine Taking a Long Time to Index / Back Up
Hi everyone.
I noticed this on the latest backup to my Time Capsule device. I'm backing up over a WiFi connection to a time capsule device. It is taking a long time to index the backup. Here's the code from the latest backup.

I am just curious as to why this is, and what I might do to fix it. I did see one suggestion in another website suggesting diabling spolight indexing of the backup image with sudo mdutil -i off /Volumes/Time Machine Backups, but don't know where to type that in. It then states to reenable it, but don't know where to type that in, either. Any advice would be helpful. I did run a verification not too long ago, and here's that code.

If any of you have or had a similar problem, I'd appreciate your help. For the time being, I may just disable time machine during the evening, and only have it run during the day when I'm at work.Is your sig still current (10.7.3)? Or did you update to 10.7.5? Because 10.7.5 had a Spotlight/Time Machine bug that slowed down a lot of backups. If that's what it is, there's now a 10.7.5 Supplemental Update that fixes the slow Time Machine problem.
If it isn't 10.7.5, I don't know what the problem might be. -
Time machine is backing up with an external disk. Its about 230GB but is taking more than one day and still less than the half. is this ok?
Yes, I read, thanks.
The excerpt says can be very very slow but dont specify how long. in my case more than one day.
Not solving the problem yet. I gave up for now because already one day and a half and still doing backup (half of the 230GB).
My computer is a 2.7 Core i7 with 16GB .
If I wait the 3 days Backup that I see could take, for the rest of backups I have to wait the same ?
I am copy like the old times, all my docs and folders. -
Time machine taking a LONG time
I have a IMac with OS Mountain Lion, and I backup automatically through Time Machine to a My Book. Ever since I updated the OS the backups are taking a long time. The initial backup after updating the OS took 3 1/2 days. It did finally end and then they seemed to be taking the "normal" amount of time, minutes versus hours or days. The last backup has been running since last Thursday night, and today is Tuesday. It is showing "backing up 3.21GB of 3.53 GB". I have been writing down where it is at before going to bed and last night it was 3.20 GB of 3.53 GB. At 1 GB per day I have about 22 days left. That seems a bit strange. This last backup had been taking a long time and I've stopped it once and restarted. Is this a current issue with the latest OS? Any suggestions?
Ok, I was trying to check something else and accidentally stopped the backup that had been running from last Thursday. I restarted my computer and began another backup. It is running now and here are the messages from the "console" from when I began the back up. It is still running. It started at 213.1 mb of 1.68 gb and has gone up to 11.91 gb of 13.10 gb.

Hi.
I bought a macbookpro 13"retina, new two weeks ago and a G-tech 1TB external drive from the apple store. It's my first mac.
I performed a backup, using Time Machine, which copied 18 GB onto he 1TB external HD in around 20 minutes.
After a little more reading, I realised I should use Disk utility to partition the 1TB external G-tech drive into a 250gb partition, and a 750gb partition.
[My MBP has a 250gb flash HD. I'll use the other 750gb for storage of my other files, like photos, music etc.]
So, using disk utility I formatted the 1TB exernal drive, then created two partitions.
However, I've started backing up my data using time machine again, onto the 250gb partition, on the external drive, and its now taking 5 hours to copy the 19.81GB
So why is it taking 25x longer than the first time I did it? [First time it took 20 minutes]
ThanksSince performing the fist backup, a couple of days ago, which took twenty minutes, and the second backup, which is taking 5 hours, I installed MS office for Mac 2011 and Silverlight.
Dont know if thats responsible? -
Time Machine Taking a Long Time to Index
Hi everyone.
I first noticed this today. My Time Machine is taking a long time to index. It's stuck on "Waiting for index to be ready (100)" for about 10 minutes at least, it seems. I did notice earlier today that it had to delete old backups to make space for new backups, and I'm wondering if that has anything to do with it. I'm in the process of doing a verification now, but here's the code from two backups earlier today.
Here's the one where it had to delete backups to make room for new and future backups.

I'm backing up to a Time Capsule over WiFi. This time capsule has a total of 3 laptops that are backed up on it.Never mind. Whatever it was, it's fine now. We'll see what happens when it has to delete old backups to make space. It's down to about 720 MB free without removing old backups.

Time machine taking too long (indexing)
I run my time capsule to back up both of my computers
a Imac 2GHz intel core duo running 10.6.8 and
an Imac 3.4GHz intel core i7 running 10.7.4
both are connected wirelessly to the Time Capsule
Recently, on the older machine, backups have stalled. I can work on it for a while, doing disk repairs and disk permissions with the Snow Leopard installation disk utility and 'fix' it for multiple backups - and all is well. Then it stalls on 'indexing backup' again. Meanwhile, the new machine running Lion is just fine. I just noticed it again.
Last successful backup was 0517 this morning (EST) and this was at approx 1700 (5 evening). I sat at the computer and was working away when Snow Leopard became really slow and I noted that the Time Capsule was indicating indexing backup, I let it run for 45 minutes and it was still indexing backup, so I quite Time Machine and restarted at 1845 (645 evening). The restart of Time Machine allows Snow Leopard to regain its usual speed, Time machine reported a file count of 202 files that had changed and went to 'indexing backup' a half hour later it is still at 'indexing backup' (about 9 emails were received - how that relates to 202 files I am not sure)
Why does it work multiple times just fine and then all of a sudden stall? When it does stall it simply (over time I presume) eats up all available memory (1.5 gb) with page swaps each one getting bigger and bigger until all memory is gone. I can 'free memory' and recover to about 600 free (running email and browser app in the background) but the time machine does it all over again if I allow it to run.
As I said, I have used Disk Utility (with the Snow Leopard Installation disk to allow repair of the boot volume) and have repaired the disk and repaired permissions - several times. (some disk permissions are repaired - no disk repairs reported) After each time, I go back and restart Time Machine and 'poof' within an hour it performs a backup with no problems. I note that backups are performed on schedule for the next few days with no problems, and then bingo, the system is totally bogged down again, and Time Machine is stuck on indexing backup once again. I have not noticed any commonality as to when the problem occurs - sometimes after a day, sometimes after several days. And meanwhile, the Lion machine is performing flawlessly
At the moment my kludge to work around is to turn off Time Machine so as not to use up all the memory and then periodically use the installation disk routine to 'repair' (disk and permissions) and then backup, but this is NOT solving the problem long term of course.
The first time I noticed this (about two months ago) the disk repair did note a disk error the system was claiming 2 bytes less free space than there was, but after that time, all the disk repairs report fine.Indexing can take a long time over wireless. You would do much better with ethernet connection.
Maybe the hard drive is failing.. The fact that the disk passes tests does not mean it is ok. As a disk ages it can have issues reading, where the same sector has to read multiple times.
I guess the ideal would be replace the machine.. it is several years old and really due for replacement.
Or at least the hard disk... although the cost of doing that job might not be worth it.
As a test I would do a backup using TM to a USB local disk plugged into it... that is good practice anyway when you are getting poor reliability on backups.
You can create a disk image using a other tools.. CCC or superduper.
A clone of the existing drive again can be worth it.
You can set to boot from FW drive and ignore the internal.. see if the problems go away.
Pondini is usually helpful although he doesn't have specific on this indexing issue.

Time Machine taking over a WEEK for initial backup
While several applications (Mac the Ripper, VLC, MPEG Streamclip, and QT Player Pro) were working simultaneously on a big chunk of video from a homemade DVD, my screen went dark with a message "You must shut down your computer." Took a couple of restarts to get things looking normal again -- except for Time Machine (running fine for well over a year), which subsequently couldn't complete any more backups.
After several tries to get TM working again and finding it very very slow, I tried to start clean:
a) checked and repaired my HD (used Applejack)
b) erased my external TM partition with Disk Utility
c) ejected external (Seagate 1.5 TB) drive, disconnected it, powered it off for a few minutes, then reconnected and re-powered it
d) deleted /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist
e) opened TM Preferences, re-selected the drive, re-entered the usual exclusions
f) allowed backup to begin after 120-second countdown
I don't know how to start TM much cleaner than that.
The first message was, "No pre-backup thinning needed: 196.95 GB requested (including padding), 976.06 GB available." As expected, correct? Well, that was a week ago! Looking at the console messages, I have seen steady, but abysmally slow progress since 02:10 on 5 December:

It's progress, and I keep hoping that suddenly Time Machine will finish with a burst of accomplishment. But at this rate, it will be months before the first backup is completed.
Suggestions welcomed. (Start over? What will be different?)Robert Leedom wrote:
3b. Verify internal HD. Check. (Used Applejack.)

I'm not familiar with Applejack; I assume it uses the same "works" as Disk Utiltiy (the diskutil UNIX command)?
You listed 1-5; I assume you also checked or tried 9-14?
The Time Machine Buddy widget initially was giving me information, but for the last several days (even after uninstalling and reinstalling TMB), it's been blankly saying, "No Time Machine information found." I thought it was reading from the same place that Console gets info. (Is it?)
Mostly; it reads the current system.log and the prior archived & compressed one, system.log.0.bz2. Sometimes if either is very large and/or corrupted, it will hang or won't show anything.
> You might try installing the "combo" update...
<Gulp!>
I'd feel a lot better about trying that if I had a backup somewhere. As of now, I have NO backups.
It's always a good idea to keep "secondary" backups. See #27 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions for some suggestions.
Since you don't have TM backups now, if it's large enough, you might be able to partition the TM drive and put a "bootable clone" on a separate partition, until you can get a second HD.
Question: Given that I'm already running 10.6.8, will the system let me try to "combo update" to 10.6.8?
Yes. The "combo" contains all the changes since 10.6.0, so is fairly likely to replace a damaged component of OSX. -
Time machine taking longer to backup?
Since the recent update to the timemachine software it has been taking about twice as long to complete each hourly backup. Amy ideas out there?

Time Machine taking over my external HD
Is there a way to stop Time Machine from taking over my external HD? I have a 1T for video and photos and previously used Retrospect for the backups. It doesn't do it automatically with the iMac Intel Processor (older version of Retrospect) so I thought Time Machine would be the answer (instead of upgrading Retrospect). However, I am not willing to give up my entire HD to Time Machine - I only want my documents backed up and then the changes to files backed up with the previous backup deleted. Is there any way to do this? I've already excluded all the apps, etc. and still end up with huge backups. And according to the info about Time Machine, it's going to keep taking over the HD until it is full!!! The Retrospect backups for the past 3 months are 3G for the original backup of documents and the current backup.
In 24 hours with Time Machine I already have 75G and counting!!!
Or do I just need to get a 2nd external HD with less memory and dedicate it to Time Machine?Or do I just need to get a 2nd external HD with less memory and dedicate it to Time Machine?
Well, OP is considering this option, and it one way to go TM-dedicated TM external. Really their options depend on how much free space is present on their Mac internal and current external. Disk Utility erase/ partition options will reformat, quite obviously, but even if they have just one external available it is usually possible to backup video and other stored files to say DVD media while they reorganize/ reformat their backup drive.
Another choice is to turn TM off.
Due to the magic of shareware there are now third-party utilities that allow you to alter the frequency of Time Machine Back up.

Time Machine taking over 60+Gigs with NO change in data?
All of a sudden, yesterday, the free space on my ~500G USB backup drive dropped from 192 Gigs to 127 Gigs with no change in the amount of data on the drive. Time Machine seems to be the culprit, but there's no way for me to see what files, caches, or whatever are taking up that space. Does anyone have any ideas on what might cause such a significant use of disk space? Maybe something got corrupt, but how might I find out?
I'm using an iMac 20" 2.16 Intel Core 2 Duo with 3G RAM. I've had Time Machine working fine since October 2007, so I don't want to "delete and start over". Any ideas or suggestions, or pointers to some useful information, would be most welcome!

HT201250 Time Machine taking forever...???
I am backing up 230GB from my local drive to a new external drive using Time Machine. I am now 24hrs into the process and only 25GB along...should it take this long?
You might start with this link:
http://pondini.org/TM/D2.html
and
http://pondini.org/TM/Home.html
Also the other links within these Time Machine general information web sites may shed light on your issue. For instance, you need to format the external backup drive properly, probably not causing your issue, but check this link just in case:
http://pondini.org/TM/5.html
FYI, my Time Machnie backup for ~ 215 GB took 2.5 hours, yours should be similar, so checking through the above links' list of troubleshooting steps might be worthwhile. Mine was via firewire and USB 2.0 might be somewhat slower, up to a factor of x2, but the time you have been waiting seems excessive.
