That seems unusual unless you changed drives.
If you upgraded the drive it sees the computer as a different one to the original backup..
I am not sure that it isn't better to do a fresh backup but you can try and inherit the old backup..

HT3275 (After an OS upgrade to Mountain Lion) Time Machine does not find the backup on my time capsule; it insists on a new backup.

(Self explanatory, I hope.)

After upgrading to mountain lion my calendar does not print in weekly mode anymore

after upgrading to mountain lion my calendar does not print in weekly mode anymore

I'm having the same problem with both my Vivotek wired network camera and Panasonic wireless network cameras. At first I thought this was an issue with the video framework in Mountain Lion, but if Firefox is working (I haven't tried it yet), it sounds like it may be an objective-c video library that has been changed. It's possible Firefox is using an objective-c interface that calls an objective-c function that isn't called by Safari or IP Camera Viewer, etc., (possibly a function that is on its way to be deprecated) or Firefox could use it's own library that directly calls the video framework.
Could be the Mountain Lion objective-c framework has a buffering issue.
Since this is occuring in both 3rd party software and Apple software, it sounds like it's an Apple issue. 3rd party applications typically utilize the Apple Developer objective-c frameworks to access video frameworks/libraries (for example, MJPEG). Thus, contacting 3rd party developers may not solve the situation (unless they can figure out a temporary bandaid--possibly figuring out the video framework call that Firefox uses and patching their software to do the same (not a simple task), but could still provide more feedback to Apple via their developer status.
Has anyone attempted to record from their cameras via iMovie or Final Cut Pro X HD? I will try mine later tonight to see if it records the hanging. If it does, then it's looking more and more like Apple's the culprit.
My suggestion is for everyone to file a bug report via http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html

I have a 2013 macpro I upgraded to yosemite. Now I find time machine does not work, nor my old back up using a click free wireless back up. What is the status of time machine and yosemite?

What is the status of time machine not working with yosemite?
I upgraded mu mac pro to yosemite and since have found time machine does not work.
Also, my old backup via a clikfree wireless backup does not work any longer.
Is anyone working on this issue?
Is there anyway I can backup my information today and until time machine &
yosemite get fixed?

After installing lion, time machine does not always back up. The back up disk is occasionally not recognized.

after installing lion, time machine does not always back up. The back up disk is occasionally not recognized. Help!

This is easy one.. for most.. just restart the TC.. ie pull out the power.. count to 10.. plug in the power.
If the simple doesn't work you can see more info here.

Have just down loaded Yosemite over Mountain Lion, Indesign CS5 does not work ( Am dependant on it) although Bridge , Light Room and Elements operate OK How do I solve this rapidly. Can any one help on this issue. Thanks

Sorry to say it, but I think you can see from Bob's response that there's no way to solve this rapidly.
Did you take an image of your Mountain Lion install before upgrading to Yosemite? Roll back to that. If you're not in the habit of taking a snapshot of your system before performing operating system upgrades - get in that habit. If you are dependent on anything at all on hour computer, having a reliable backup method in place is essential. If you don't have a Time Capsule, or some other way to run Time Machine onto a disk that's not in your computer, go set that up yesterday.
If you can't just remove Yosemite and roll back to Mountain Lion for whatever reason, you can partition your drive so that you can install both Yosemite and Mountain Lion on the same drive, and then boot into Mountain Lion when you need to work in CS5. Or you can take your Mountain Lion disc (I assume you have one, no?) and then use it to create a virtual machine in something like VirtualBox to run Mountain Lion from inside Yosemite.

Upgrade to lion and time machine does not work

I upgraded to Lion and my WD Live network drive that I always used for wireless time machine back ups no longer works. I get the following error:
Time Machine could not complete the backup.
The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features.
What can I do to fix this?

Your network drive isn't compatible with Lion. See #C16 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, Time Machine backup fails

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. I have used TM with an external HD attached to my Airport Extreme for a few years now to back up my MBP. It has worked great, so after the ML upgrade, TM will not recognize my external HD dedicated to TM backups. I can see the EHD on the TM system preferences, but it on gives me the option to remove it. Under other available disks, it also shows the EHD but the name of the Airport is different. The name of the Airport is called The Thread, but on other available disks section of the screen, it is shown as The-Thread. I have tried to change to this and I get the error message saying it can't see it. The other HD plugged into my Airport Extreme has all of my iTunes files on it and it plays the files just fine and I can see the files on the TM backup HD in the finder.
I have gotten the errors 17 and 60 when trying the backups. The dash in the Airport name is the only difference I can see.

Backing up to a hard drive on an Airport Extreme base station is, contrary to common sense, not a supported configuration and is known to be problematic, with the possibility of sudden failure always looming. See:

Time Machine does not work after installing mavericks

After I installed maverick on my imac, my time machine backups don't work anymore!!!!
I have a normal portable HDD attached to my Imac with time capsule backup from before mavericks was installed.
I also has a Buffalo NAS as a second Time Machine Backup.
TIme capsule does not recognise my Buffalo NAS and tells me that it is not available. It has previous backups from Mountain Lion for sure!
My portable HDD keeps saying "Preparing for backup" for eternity.
Please, APPLE, what is going on with mavericks? Regretted upgrading.
My backup is 31 days behind because of this! Unacceptable!
But what is strange is that I can connect to my portable HDD and Buffalo NAS as a drive. What I have been doing is to copy and paste the important stuff into the drives. But it really defeats the purpose of time machine, right?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Time Machine does not work with Seagate NAS 110

I have been trying to configure time machine to automatically back-up a Macbook Pro to my Seagate NAS 110 to no avail. I have the latest version of OSX Lion running on my Macbook as well as the latest firmware update on my NAS device which was designed to erradicate the very problem I am experiencing now. It would be greatly appreciated if anyone was able to point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance!

I hadn't found that. Unfortunately, there's no date on it, and no mention of Lion. One would assume that's what it means, but some makers have simply abandonded some of their old products.
I was hoping that somebody on this forum has been experiencing the same issues as I have and found a solution to the problem.
It doesn't look like many are using it on Macs. Yours is the only post found in the Apple forums containing Seagate Blackarmour NAS 110.
Searching for Seagate NAS 110 does get some hits, but none with resolutions:

Once awake from sleep, time machine does not work via WIFI

I use my MacBookPro via WIFI and every time a put my MacBookPro asleep (with MAC OS 10.8.3), once I wake the machine back on, Time machine is not able to connect anymore to the backup NAS on the network.
I always have to turn OFF and ON again wifi to make it work.
What's wrong?
How can I solve this undesirable matter?
Thank you

Thanks,
But i do not have a WIFI problem in general on my Mac, it's just Time Machine that does not reconnect with the backub network drive unit.....
All the rest is working fine.
This is what I get:

After installing Yosemite Time machine does not work

Time machine no longer works after Yosemite installed. Can this be fixed?

Mine isn't working either. First time I've tried to backup an iMac and it is after 10.10.3 update. It won't complete the backup. File in finder ends in "in progress" - i have tried with two different drives, ran tests on both and on my startup disk. It is a brand new WD 2T My Passport for MAC and basically a brand new iMac (late 2014) - it will NOT complete a backup. I cannot find any answers on the support discussions - how can I get this working? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated - I'm concerned I don't have this machine backed up at all.
Here is what Time Machine is telling me (I tried disk utility on both of the external hard drives I have - and neither had an issue to fix):

Mountain Lion and Time Machine does not work

After Mountain Lion upgrade I was able to backup once using Time Machine. Now TM suggest that I need 42 TB for my backup?!? I have 1TB hard disk on my Mac which has about 600GB of data on it. Time machine prepares the backup for around 10 minutes and then gives an error that my backup disk is too small (1.5TB) because the size of the backup would be 42TB. :-o I have booted my Mac, repaired permissions and searched for internet for tips. However, no luck until now. Any suggestions what could work?

Boot into Recovery (command-R at startup), launch Disk Utility, select the startup volume, and run Repair Disk (not Repair Permissions.) If any problems are found, repeat. Then reboot as usual.

Time Machine does not work after Lion Upgrade

Hi all.
I upgraded my iMac to Lion yesterday. I used to run Time Machine through my airport extreme to an external hdd.
After the upgrade to Lion I'm unable to do this. When I try to setup Time Machine again, it is not possible to connect to the HDD throught the Airport Extreme. I do find the external HDD in Finder, but not able to access it.
The HDD is a Samsung 1 TB.
Is this a known issue and is it any possible fixes in the near future?
Thanks!

Hi
It probably doesn't help you directly but I have Lion performing time machine backups onto an external disk via airport extreme. Have you upgraded the firmware on the airport extreme recently?
Cheers

Time machine does not work properly in Lion

Hi,
I have upgraded from snow leopard to Lion but Time Machine seams to have a problem.
It continues to back up my files but I cannot enter the program to restore my files.

Follow these instructions, make a option bootable Snow clone and try Lion again. If Lion doesn't work again, then the Snow clone is just a option boot, drive erase and reverse clone away.
How can I uninstall OS X Lion and go back to Snow Leopard?
1: Copy your user file folders (Documents, Pictures, Movies, Music, not Library) to a external blank Disk Utility formatted HFS drive (not TimeMachine) and disconnect all drives. Make a note of your username and hard drive name. Write down any essential information like passwords stored in keychains and product serial keys.
2: Stick the 10.6 installer disk into the machine and reboot holding the c key down. Second screen in choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
3: On the left select the hard drive makers name of your internal boot drive (important) then click Erase and Erase... button (if you want to wipe the drive of all lingering data then choose Security Option>Zero all data) when choosing a name for the drive, use the same drive name as before.
4: Quit and install 10.6, then go through setup, reboot and use the same user name as before. Software Update, install programs from fresh sources (enter any serial keys) Hold Option and click on Purchases in AppStore to redownload (not Lion of course) and then finally return user files to their respective folders on the Snow Leopard drive.
5: If you have issues with iPhoto, you can right click on the iPhoto Library and "Show Package contents" and in there is a folder with all your originals. Copy them out and delete the iPhoto Library and reboot, restart iPhoto and it should be recreated, which you can then import your copied originals again.
Note: using the same drive and user name as before, returning files exactly into their respective Music, Documents and Pictures folders like before matches any pathnames some files like iTunes has to the location of your files. If not done, then exclamation points will occur in iTunes when you click on a song. The iTunes Library will have to be opened in Text Edit and all the partial pathnames "find and replace" corrected to repair.
Optional, but recommended.
Ideally it's best to first Carbon Copy Cloner the 10.7 internal to another blank external HFS drive before doing the above steps 1-5 as that way you have a copy of everything in case you missed something or you need to hold option boot from the 10.7 clone. The clone can later be erased and used as a 10.6 clone. Or reversed cloned back onto the internal drive or as many external drives as needed. (don't use a clone on a different Mac)
Clones are hold option key bootable, TimeMachines drives are not.
Note: The above steps are ONLY for Mac's that didn't come with Lion preinstalled. For reverting a factory Lion to Snow Leopard requires other methods.
