TM is really not working after 10.5.4

My Time Machine stopped working after updating to 10.5.4, I use a share on a 3rd party NAS (Dlink dns-323) as my TM drive.
I have tried all the usual things, re-index spotlight etc.
The problem appears to be with spotlight indexes on the mounted backup drive from the network .sparsebundle file, I just get error after error.

TM eventually barfs with an error and I have to reboot to get rid of the mounted network backup drive.
I have no problems using TM to a locally connected drive.
Any ideas most appreciated.

I just added a 500GB USB drive in addition to an older 320GB USB drive. I have manual archives as well and "limited" TM backups on my 320. I copied all my manual archives from the 320 to the 500 drive. That move was around 160GB or so. After that move spotlight kept the 500GB busy for 10-12 hours indexing. I have been on 10.5.4 since it came out with no problems with TM. The indexing can take a long time, but it didn't give me any error messages either. If the drive seems to be running but not accomplishing anything it may be indexing. If the little spyglass in the right end of the toolbar has a dot in the middle, then it is indexing. Just hold your cursor over it and it will show the %complete. Or click it and a progress bar will be displayed. Hopes this gives some expectations of normal operation with your system.

  • Anyone else's iPhone 4s speaker not working after update to iOS 6.1?

    My speaker does not work after updating the software to iOS 6.1. No sound for incoming calls or texts, no speakerphone, no siri, no music or any sounds played from apps. Headphones still work as does anything plugged into the headphone jack. I've check all my settings - everything is correct. I've rebooted and restored settings several times, I've docked it - nothing works.
    Anyone else having this problem? Did anyone have this problem and were able to fix it? Does anyone know if Apple is aware and will be sending another update to fix it? I really don't think it's a hardware problem. Phone is in immaculate condition and never dropped or spilled on.

  • SB04100 Sound Blaster Card not working after computer rebuild

    =SB0400 Sound Blaster Card not working after computer rebuildZ I did a full disk format and reinstall for a friend on a Dimension 3000, running XP SP3. There is no sound at all. Speakers are good, tested on another system. Model number on the back of the sound card is SB0400, so I assume this is an older 24 bit PCI SoundBlaster card. Although I reinstalled all drivers from Dell, I found no drivers for this. The Creative site has no listing for this model.
    Computer does not seem to recognize the card. Have not opened the box yet but I assume if I were to remove and then reinstall the card it would be recognized (?) I then have to find an SB0400 driver.
    Does anyone know where I can find an SB0400 driver ? Does the strategy of pulling and reinstalling the card make sense ? (I have really avoided tampering with any of the hardware on this box -- since it is not mine.)

    Re: SB0400 Sound Blaster Card not working after computer rebuild? Thanks much for your response. Problem solved for now. I removed the board and then reinserted it, after which I was able to download the drivers directly. Some of my difficulty with this whole process has been ) I didn't know there was no working speaker in the computer and 2) I apparently misunderstood the BIOS settings for this. I re-set it up as an add-on board during the troubleshooting process. After loading the driver, I went back to the original setting (don't recall what it was but it was for integrated sound). The setting for integrated sound works fine, with external speakers and the new 24 bit driver. Still some noise (popping and static) but this board shares the bus with 2 other cards one of which is a wireless network card. May be a PCI latency issue but I'm reluctant to change that because the network card is a bit shaky anyway.
    Everything works for now -- I'll be glad to get this particular computer out of my house !

  • B110a black in still not working after trying all recommended solutions

    Hi there
    Black ink still not working after spending many hours trying to sort. I've cleaned the printhead carefull several times (is immaculate now) and run the system clean up and alignment functions several many times too. I've cleaned the metal connecting points. I wiggled things carefully. I've attempted printing multiple pages in b/w in case it was going to take a while to get the ink flowing again. I've replaced one (expensive) new black cartridge with another brand new (expensive) cartridge and still nothing. This machine is probably out of warranty but seriously not very old. It really ought to be working okay. We use it regularly a little bit every week. Any ideas?

    The document here has troubleshooting steps that may help resolve black not printing on your Photosmart b110a.  Be sure to check the vents as shown in solution six, step three.  If the above does not resolve the problem the post here may help.

  • Security and privacy system preferences not working after Lion install.  What to do?

    Security and privacy system preference not working after Lion install.  Not sure if it happen with Lion installer or after updating. What to do?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
    Launch the 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.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” (without the quotes) and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
    Step 1
    Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”.
    Step 2
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}'
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
    Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • Internet not working after installing "StarTech Thunderbolt Docking Station" driver

    My Internet is not working after installing "StarTech Thunderbolt Docking Station" driver although "Ethernet" and "wireless" say they're connected, still there is no internet.
    I have bought a "StarTech Thunderbolt Docking Station" as I need to use 2 thunderbolt based pieces of equipment on my "MacBook Pro"; which are a 2nd monitor as well as a Thunderbolt driven Audio Interface.
    When I first plugged all my equipment to the "StarTech Thunderbolt Docking Station" everything was working fine, all pieces of equipment worked as well as Ethernet from both the computer and the docking station were working perfectly.
    However, when I inserted the "StarTech Thunderbolt Docking Station driver CD" and installed the drivers, the internet on my computer has stopped working. Although the Ethernet says it is "connected" (same goes for "Thunderbolt Ethernet" when cable is connected to it) still the internet does not work. Even my wireless internet is not working anymore. Furthermore, also after installing the Docking Station drivers, my iTunes is crashing whenever started.
    Please help, this is really urgent.
    I've been looking for answers all around but can't seem to find any.
    I'm using OSX Mavericks 10.9.2
    I've tried fixing stuff with Network preferences, like changing IP address, renewing DHCP leace.
    I also tried typing IP address, Subnet Mask, Router and DNS Sever manually... Nothing seems to be working.
    Note: I know someone could suggest to "uninstall" the Thunderbolt Station driver, however, I can't find an "uninstallation file", even the CD that came with the docking station does not have it.

    I had exactly the same problem today, and I was lucky enough to solve it.
    Here's what helped me:
    First, I found a hint to Suspicious Package in this thread.
    With Suspicious Package installed, I was able to identify the script in StarTech's installer pkg. It' called "postflight".
    Amongst other things, postflight runs this command:
    sudo mv usr/share/sandbox/mDNSResponder.sb usr/share/sandbox/_mDNSResponder.sb
    A quick check in Apple's knowledge base revealed, that the mDNSResponder is essential to use DNS (i.e. to resolve server names like www.apple.com) and bonjour.
    I moved th mDNSResponder back to where it belongs:
    sudo mv usr/share/sandbox/_mDNSResponder.sb usr/share/sandbox/mDNSResponder.sb
    After a reboot, everything worked fine again.
    I have no idea, why StarTeck disables an essential tool. Let's assume it's an error ...
    But after this experience, I didn't want the StarTech ethernet driver on my machine (I had installed it just for curiosity, anyway - yes, I know, I shouldn't have ...), so I removed the kext the installer had copied to my system:
    sudo mv /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleIntel8 2580.kext /Users/myusername
    (You see I didn't delete the kext directly, I just moved it away and tried another reboot. Now everything works fine, so I'm going to delete the kext entirely and paint a big red cross on StarTech's installer disk.
    Hope this helps.

  • Does Lion really not work with Microsoft Office?

    does Lion really not work with Microsoft Office?

    I am afraid I have reverted to Snow Leopard as I was having one problem after another with Lion and for every problem I was solving, two new ones cropped up. I won't bore you with a long list, but one example is whenever I clicked on a single saved document to view, Microsoft Word would open not only that particular document, but also half a dozen other ones as well. Also, my Canon printer did not operate properly nor would Aol. With a lot of other weird stuff happening every day, the final straw was when my Time Capsule wouldn't backup properly, but just 'hang' indefinitely.
    Luckily, I have two HD disks on my iMac and I had installed Lion on HD2 while still retaining Snow Leopard on HD1. I also made a Lion installation disk for future installation when all these software bugs have been sorted.
    I am back to normal service with Snow Leopard and shall not return to Lion until at least the next upgrade/patch becomes available. I so looked forward to Lion as well, but I was fighting a losing battle.
    I would suggest anyone who is in my position trying to stem the tidalwave of software problems with Lion, make an installation disk for Lion and go back to SL until the next upgrade.

  • Facebook birthdays not working after ios7 update

    Facebook birthdays not working after ios7 update?

    Did you always have the same problem or is it new? I always used to be able to get Facebook to work on wifi with no issues for months. I downloaded the new software update for Revolution, and all of a sudden it seems like they blocked the Facebook app somehow unless you're on 4G. It really sux because I can't get into my Zynga games either that are tied to FB! Wish someone at Verizon could be aware of this and fix the problem.
    Also, interestingly, when I try to log into the Facebook site with the browser I am directed to an error page. The browser works fine for every other site though. Really seems like there was some kind of block instated that will no longer let you use Facebook on a wifi connection. 

  • Satellite A110-228 LAN does not work after hibernate

    Well, subject says it all, really. The LAN (wired) network does not work after hibernate.
    It seems it cannot find the DHCP server, so after a while it gets a 169.* address.
    After a reboot, the network functions as usual (gets a IP address from the DHCP server)
    Tried the usual things, disconnecting the cable, disabling the LAN device, battery or AC adapter, the behavior is reproducible.
    The wireless network will be restored after a hibernate.
    It needs a little help though (right click on the icon and "recover" or whatever it is called in English)
    Any suggestions?
    Wilm Boerhout

    Hi guys
    In the Toshiba HW setup which is placed in the control panel the options Wake-up on LAN and Built-in LAN should be enabled.
    I think the options are disabled by default.
    Furthermore the default setting for Wake on Settings is OS controlled. To use the Wake-up on LAN function under power off mode, in the device driver for the network card under the menu point Wake On Settings the Value Wake on Magic & Directed must be set.
    Please check this how to enable WOL (first time use):
    1. Go to [Start] -> [Control Panel] -> [Toshiba HWSetup] -> [LAN] tab
    2. Enable Wake-up on LAN
    3. Click [Apply]. System will request to reboot.
    4. After the reboot go to [Start] -> [Control Panel] -> select [System]
    5. On system properties dialog box select [Hardware] tab -> click [Device manager]
    6. On Device manager dialog box select [Networking adapters] -> double click [Intel(R) PRO/100 VE Network Connection]
    7. Go to [Advanced] tab -> select [Wake On Settings] property -> Select [Wake on Magic & Directed]
    8. Press [OK] to close the dialog box.

    Hi
    Thanks for the tip. However, I elected not to save the XP SP2 uninstall files when I installed SP2. so I appear to be stuffed.
    There must be some creative drivers that work with an audigy with XP SP2 installed!
    If not then its either re-format the Hard Dri've and re-install everything again (Doh!!) or get another (not Creative Labs) soundcard.
    this is really bugging me.

  • VIBER is not working after updating android 4.3 on my Experia SP.Any idea or solution ?:-)

    Viber is not working after updating my Xperia SP to new Android 4.3There are totally confusing simptoms: I can not hear the other party,  the other party can not hear me , I can not answer the call even when I try to  or the other party can not answer my viber call even if they try to. CAN SOMEONE HELP or HAVE ANY IDEA :-)

    I also had problems with xperia sp after updating to 4.3 - phone was slow to an extent of being unusable. However, even before update (on firmware 4.1) I found the phone quite slow.I am very happy that I returned the phone to my carrier in exchange to nexus 5. When I got hold of it I really felt the change in responsivenes compared to sony. I cannot recommend it more - it has all the sony has + better responsivness, better screen, better battery life (yes, I have tested this), better camera minus bloatware. I got all of this for paying 50 eur more. That was my second and last phone from sony. After having sony xperia S for 1 week and returning it because of wifi problems and after trying xperia sp and again returning it because of crappily written firmware I really wonder what are people at sony thinking about.  People, don't you see that sony does not give a **bleep** about customer satisfaction after getting their money?  Of course, you can downgrade manually, but don't forget that this voids your warranty - staff at service centre would be more than glad to tell you you have just voided your warranty because you brought them phone that you had to downgrade because of crapilly written UPgrade!.  In addition to that downgrade means spending your a couple of hours of your precious time correcting mistakes of multinational corporation that simply does not give a **bleep**. Throw your sony into trash instead, and use those hours to earn money with which you can buy new phone that will actually work.

    Has anyone had problems with the tablet not working after closing the lid on a Tecra M7? Bios is 3.20
    Doesn't seem to happen on hibernate or sleep.
    I have the lid set to do nothing on close.

    Hi
    What do you mean with tablet not working after closing the lid?
    Does the notebook freezes or what?? What happens exactly???
    The close the lid settings can be set to hibernation mode or standby mode or no action.
    These settings can be set in the power saver setup actions.
    If you have some problems with some installed Toshiba applications I would recommend reinstalling the TOSHIBA Common Modules and the program which doesnt run correctly!
