What does an unexpected error occurred (error code -6584) when opening time machine

After a terminal hard drive fail in my 2007 imac which was backed up to time machine I tried to restore some data onto my replacement imac 2.9 late 2012.
I did this via migration assistant - it was a long process about 4 hours - so I went to bed and left it running.
When I returned to the imac I found I had my old programs back but none of the data assosiated with them - word but no documents, garage sale but no templates and itunes but no music...
This is my entire music collection of around 300 gig and all my Garage Sale templates which represent years of work.
Is there anyway to bypass or overcome the error so I can at least get the data mentioned above back?
any help greatly appreciated
best wishes

To fix the error code -6584 you would need to verify and repair your Time Machine Backup.
Go to System Preferences > Time Machine.
Hold down the Option key on your keyboard and click the Time Machine menulet and then selecting "Verify Backups".

  • HT3275 I'm getting Unexpected error code 6584 when trying to launch Time Machine

    I have added Time Capsule to my network and after set up receive an error message 6584 when trying to launch Time Machine

    You need to verify the backups.. hold the options key whilst clicking the TM icon in the top menu area. Choose verify..
    Look on the right for more like this.. it is a fairly standard error.

  • "An unexpected error occurred (error code -43)" when launching Time Machine

    Hi! When attempting to launch Time Machine, I get the following error:
    The operation could not be completed
    An unexpected error occurred (error code -43)
    My machine is a 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon running 10.5.8
    What's strange is that Time Machine DID work just the other day. It would launch automatically when I plugged in my external HD (Maxtor One Touch) though I didn't set it up to back up yet. After I reformatted the drive to Mac OS Extended (Journaled), Time Machine started giving me this error and won't launch. Any ideas here? Thanks!

    When you reformatted, it got a new UUID (Universally Unique IDentifier), which may be confusing Time Machine. Try just reselecting it, per +Time Machine Preferences.+
    If that doesn't help, try a "full reset" of Time Machine, per #A4 in [Time Machine - Troubleshooting|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Troubleshooting.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).

  • Unexpected Error code -43 when trying to use Time Machine

    I purchased my Macbook Pro in September. At the same time, I purchased a 500gb Seagate Free Agent Go external drive. I finally decided it was time to put it to use and got this message when I attempted to start my Time Machine - Operation Could Not Be Completed - Unexpected Error (code -43).
    Any ideas what's up with this? Thanks for any input!

    I just came back to say that the purchase date was in 2009. And, I am unable to open the Time Machine program at all! That is the error I get when I open the program. I am thinking about re-installing Time Machine from my disk and see if that helps.
    I don't think that's an app you can install that way.
    But you can use the Pacifist app, from http://www.charlessoft.com/
    If your Install disc isn't 10.5.8, you should then download and install the "combo" update, to apply the updated bits to it. Info and download available at: http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate
    Be sure to do a +Repair Permissions+ via Disk Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder) afterwards.
    And, as far as my drive goes - The awesome Apple rep at Best Buy formatted it for me when I bought it!
    Just to be sure, check that it's correct, per #C1 in the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.

  • After a full restore from Time Machine, I get "error code -6584" when trying to go into TM.

    I took our iMac in, at the direction of Apple, to have the hard drive replaced. When we got it back, I restored from Time Machine (on Time Capsule). One file on the desktop, a spreadsheet file, has reverted to a version five months old, with the loss of considerable data, so I don't know which files I can now trust. Also, when I try to go into Time Machine, I get "error code -6584" and am unable to access my backups
    This is potentially very very bad. What can I do?

    Solved:
    sudo chflags 0 /Volumes/"FCP Time Machine BU"
    sudo chown 0:80 /Volumes/"FCP Time Machine BU"
    sudo chmod 775 /Volumes/"FCP Time Machine BU"
    sudo chmod -N /Volumes/"FCP Time Machine BU"

  • Error code -50 when opening Logic virtual instruments

    I'm getting an error code -50 when trying to open any of the Logic's virtual instruments, VIs from other brands open without a glitch.

    The plugins access the key to check they are authorised to run (remember, the main plugins were separate purchases once upon a time). Obviously, if you are on a USB port/hub that's not agreeing with the XSkey, then communication is unreliable and can take the form of a number of different effects on your system.
    That -50 error probably means the plugin failed to load, as the communication with the XSkey failed during the initialisation process.

    Bob,
    I am getting eerror 34506 followed by Multiplexing error when I answer OK to the 34506 error.

    Do you have chapter markers? If so:
    Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the start or end of the timeline. Make sure no chapter markers are within a transition. Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the end of a transition.
    Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the DVD. File/Save as Disc Image...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=164927
    This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
    There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
    Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower for best results. Then click the Burn button.
    -->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
    Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

  • What does the "Copy error code files" option do in the build spec properties

    I have the "Copy error code files" checked for my application build specification but when I run my EXE on a different computer and call the simple error handler, I don't get the custom error from my computer's
    C:\Program Files(x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2012\user.lib\errors\User-errors.txt file. Instead I get the "this error code is undefined" explaination.
    I've also tried including that file in the "always included" section of the build spec but that didn't work either. Am I missing something?

  • What is Error Code 16 When Opening PS CS6 in Mountain Lion

    I had to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop CS6 as I was getting Error Code 16 on trying to open Photoshop CS6 in latest version of Mountain Lion OSX. Leading up to this error, I had had to open Application Manager using a temporary Admin Account as AM indicated that it didn't have write permissions using my normal log-on. (It had, including all cotents of Users/Library/application Support). Hopefully someone who has simmilar issues can help me out here? Thanks

    Bermrunner12 for the DB008 and DF037 error please see Installation, launch log errors | CS5, CS5.5, CS6, CCM - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/installation-launch-log-errors-creative.html.
    The DF031 error can indicate a required file was either not available or the attributes for the file could not be read.
    Make sure when reviewing your install log that you start at the bottom of the log file.  If those errors are not reflected in the latest installation then they may have occurred under the compromised user account as opposed to the newly created Administrator account you later experienced a successful installation attempt.
