  • "Unexpected Error" when trying to set up time machine.

    I only really want to use it as an external HD, but every time I try to set up to connect to my wifi it says "unexpected error" try again later.  When I press the reset button, airport utility can recognize it.  Then I try to set it up as extending or connecting to a current wifi connection.  The process seems to be going fine until the very end and then airport utility says "unexpected error."  Then, it no longer recognizes the time capsule.  Help please.

    You cannot extend wireless if the other router is not an apple.
    If you join to the existing wireless, ethernet is cut off when it sets.. are you using ethernet or wireless to do the setup?
    The best way to setup the TC even for just using as external hd is to plug it into the main router by ethernet.. and bridge the TC.
    The other method is to plug it by ethernet directly to the computer but use static IP addressing.
    Tell us how you want to do it.

  • HT3275 Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive.  Could not complete backup to media share.  The network backup disk does not support the required AFP feat

    Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive.  "Could not complete backup to media share.  The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features."  What are AFP features and how do I get Time Machine to backup to my current external backup?

    This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

    Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    First, empty the Trash, if possible.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 \) 2>&- | wc -l | pbcopy
    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. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear.
    The output of the command will be a number. It's automatically copied to the Clipboard. Please paste it into a reply.
    The Terminal window doesn't show the output. Please don't copy anything from there.

  • I'm trying to set up time machine to back up on an external HD connected t my airport extreme, but the disk doesn't show as an option in the time machine selecting a disk, any suggestion anyone? My mac "sees" the airport extreme   ??

    I'm trying to set up time machine to back up on an external HD connected t my airport extreme, but the disk doesn't show as an option in the time machine selecting a disk, any suggestion anyone? My mac "sees" the airport extreme   ??

    The first important thing to consider here is that Apple does not support Time Machine backups to a drive at the USB port on the AirPort Extreme, so that may likely have something to do with your difficulties.
    If you want to continue to try this, the drive must be formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and you almost always have to use a powered USB hub with a drive at the port of the Extreme...even if the hard drive has its own power supply....because the port on the Extreme is under powered.
    Most users who try this unsupported method have corruption difficulties sooner or later, but we do hear from some users who seem to be able to make it work.
    The bottom line is that there is no support from Apple on this if you have difficulties, so you may want to consider a secondary backup plan for your important data.

  • Trying to set up time machine but it does not show my disc plugged into airport.  Time capsule setup never shows disc .

    Trying to set up time machine but cannot get it to find my disc plugged into Airport.

    I hate to have to tell you this, but backing-up that way is unreliable and not supported by Apple.   See:  Using Time Machine with an Airport Extreme Air Disk.

  • HT201250 trying to set up time machine, it will not connect to airport utility, inspite the wi-fi is very strong.

    I have tried repeatedly to connect time machine to my air port utility, and keep getting the message that it was undetected. I have a strong wi-fi connection in my house and I just don't understand that it will not connect. Can anyone help me with this?

    Power off both your Mac and the Time Capsule and wait a few minutes
    Power up the Time Capsule first, and let it run 2-3 minutes by itself
    Power up the Mac next and let it run a full minute.
    Go into Time Machine Preferences again and see if you can select the Time Capsule as a destination for Time Machine backups. Do this by first removing any existing disks for Time Machine. Click Add/Remove Disk and remove the existing disk that is set up. Then repeat to select and add the disk again.
    If still no luck, open Macintosh HD > Library > Preferences
    Locate the com.apple.TimeMachine.plist file and move it to the desktop
    Then repeat the complete the entire procedure above to see starting at the top, to see if you can select the Time Capsule for Time Machine backups.

  • Newbie trying to set up time machine

    I've just tried setting up Time Machine and it's tell me that I need Airport Utility. I'm using another wireless modem. Can it be set up without Airport Utility? I just bought a wireless modem should I take it back and buy Airport Utility?
    Thanks, mimi

    Haha clueless. No, if you have a Mac you already have AirPort Utility. Go to Applications, then Utilities, and you should see AirPort Utility. If you are using a Windows machine your Time Capsule included a disk that has AirPort Utility for Windows on it. You can also download these programs from www.apple.com.

  • Error when trying to set a date type edit field

    Hi all
    I have an edit text field in a form which is bounded to a date type
    database field using dbDataSource.
    When i try to set the edit text field value with Today's date by code.
    I recieve an error message that the value which
    i'm trying to set is not legal. the  error number is [131-183].
    I use the following code to set the edit field:
    If oEditText.Value.Trim = String.Empty Then
                Dim strDate As String
                Dim sboBob As SAPbobsCOM.SBObob =
                 oCompany.GetBusinessObjec(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.BoBridge)
                 rs = sboBob.Format_DateToString(Microsoft.VisualBasic.Today)
               strDate = rs.Fields.Item(0).Value.ToString().Trim()
    Try 
           oEditText.Value = strDate
    Catch ex As Exception
        SBO_Application.MessageBox("error setting
    current date: " & ex.Message)
    End Try
    End If
    My question is how can i set the edit field with a valid value?

    Hi!
    When writing to EditText.Value you must always use the B1 "DB-Format" as String.
    The following examples are assuming (it's a must!) that the EditText-Fields are bound to a corrosponding DataSource (Type Date, Price etc...)
    MyDateEditTxt.Value="20080207"
    MyPriceEditTxt.Value="1341.79"
    The best of it: It's Windows and SBO-GUI-Language independent.
    EditText.String must always be written with the format of the actual Language of the SBO-GUI, which can be changed by the user....
    You may also have a look at my statements regarding these problems near the end of this thread:

  • No Signature of Method Error when trying to set Bind Variable Groovy Expr

    I am trying to set a Bind variable on my view object to equal the output of a function defined in the the EntityImpl.java that corresponds to that bind variable.
    I set the value of my bind variable to be = adf.object.getMyServiceType()
    Where the name of the view object I am currently in is called GridSwSoftwareServiceView.xml and the Entity object is called GridSwSoftwareService.java and the EntityImpl file is called GridSwSoftwareService.java.
    I am seeing this error:
    No signature of method: oracle.jbo.common.VariableImpl$VariableExprValueSupplier.getMyServiceType() is applicable for argument types: () values: []
    Does anyone know what this error means?
    I was trying to follow an example from this doc: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/11/how-tos/groovy/introduction_to_groovy.pdf
    Edited by: user10791986 on May 21, 2010 2:50 PM

    Looks like a bug... :(
    It works fine as a View Object attribute expression but it fails miserably once added as an expression to the bind variable. In this case, here is a work-around:
    Define the method as static in your EntityImpl.java :
    public static String getMyServiceType() {
    return "EBSO R12";
    Then access it by fully qualifying it with the package and class :
    com.yourpackage.EntityImpl.getMyServiceType()
    Edited:
    On a second thought, I am wondering if the expression is valid since the Entity hasn't yet constructed at that point.... That explains why it works when made static.
