MacPro backed up to Time Machine, added Mac Mini now get "The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/Jerry Booher’s MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use." error when Mac Pro tries to back up
It is standard Mountain Lion error due to the networking ability which is comparable to wet string. (actually that was lion.. it dried out some with Mountain Lion.. higher in the hills perhaps!!)
See C12 and C17

But many people are suffering the same issue..
And the above is even a little out of date.. you might need to do a reset to the TC.

My time machine does not back up and giving me this error message: The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/Amiel’s MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use. Pls help.
Make sure that there are no other Macs backing up at the present time.
Pull the power cord from the back of the Time Capsule
Count to ten
Plug the power cord back in
This will "fix" things about 98% of the time. Post back if you are in the unlucky 2% category. -
my time machine will not back up and i get this message: /Volumes/Data/Kathy P’s MacBook.sparsebundle” is already in use....i have tried multiple fixes but still unable to back up
If you have tried the fixes in Pondini's Time Machine Troublshooting, specifically #C12 and nothing helps, then it is time to let one of the genius types at an Apple Store take a look.

If you cannot take the Time Capsule to an Apple Store, contact Apple Support directly.

I can select a disk (Time Capsule) and initiate the backup. It only "waits to back up" then "making backup disk available" and remains frozen there. I tried to update the software a while back and was unsuccessful, I think that may be the issue.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. This is the error message I receive.

The backup disc image "/Volumes/Data/Mike Nice's MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" is already in use.???
Why am I getting this message and why will my Time Machine not complete the backup and how do I correct this?
Reboot.. pull out the power plug.. push the power plug back in after 10sec.
Reboot whole network.. same as above.. but do it for everything..
ie turn everything off.. computer, TC, router -Mode.. whatever.. every single computer device in your home.. off.. not in standby.. not in sleep.. off.
Power up.. Modem... wait 2min
Power up.. Router/TC... wait 2min
Power up.. Switch, AP any other network equipment... wait 2min
Power up.. computers, iphone, ipads etc.. ie clients...
Everything should now be working. -
I noticed today that my last back-up was this a.m. and it has tried several times to back up since but I keep getting this message
Time Machine couldn’t complete the backup to “TimeCap”.
The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/ MacBook Pro ."sparsebundle” is already in use.
I have never had this problem before and don't know what to do. I am not that great around computers so if anyone can help I would appreciate it. I did try to do some research but could not understand any of the content I read. I sure don't know what "sparsebundle" is and this is the first time I ever heard the term.
If anyone can help woold appreciate it.
I have Version 10.9.1This is a standard issue..
Been around since LION but you missed out.. !! Well the old rule applies.. there are three types of Mac users.
1. The bugs have bitten you, and you have done the work arounds.
2. The bugs are biting you and you are now trying to find out what is going on.
3. The bugs will bite you. And in the meantime you laugh at everyone with problems and say it must be all their fault. Doesn't happen to my system.
You were simply in the last group.. now, with the wonders of mavericks to help, you got bit.
The solution is simple.. unplug the power cord from the TC .. count to 10.. power up the TC again.
No luck look at the more technical help.

Your naming might also be an issue if this continues to happen.. see C9. -
Why do I get this strange message from Adobe on my MacBook Pro?
Why do I keep getting a message that says something like "we want to share the space in your computer"? Since the message said it was from Adobe, I removed an Adobe file. Now the message is gone, but I cannot open various programs that tell me I need that Adobe file to read or open certain programs. What do I do?

Hello, I get the above message when trying to back up to time machine. It worked previously. I have done the usual things (switch off & on etc). Any ideas?
Thanks!What router are you using? I got the same problem on and off when I was using a number of brands of WiFi routers. Until one day, I heard that non-Apple routers don't support Bonjour and it makes TM backup unstable. I tried using an Airport router (Express, Extreme and Time Capsule), the backup became stable, in long term.
Is it the solution to your problem? Give me feedback. -

When I want to scroll through My pictures why do I get this Error message (A necessary data reference could not be resolved)
Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner. -
According to my network provider (Amaysim/Optus) Tethering is enabled, so why do I get this error message "to enable personal hotspot on this account, contact OPTUS"
Amysim/Optus support can not help.
I can not check or change any network settings (no APN settings)
I have synced phone using latest itunes (10.5.3).
Phone software is up to date (5.0.1).
Network settings have been reset.
SIM card has been taken out and put back in.
Phone has been switched off/on again.
Another sim card from virgin works ok (hotspot option is visible and can be turned on/off as required)
The Amaysim/Optus SIM card can be put into another phone (android) and tethering/hotspot works fine.
Can anyone provide solution to this nightmare?I am having the same issue although i have an iphone 5. I have contacted Live connected numerous times an tried everything imaginable to solve the issue. Is it possibly a handset issue? I cant recieve any help from optus as im with live connected, they cant help me and apple keep telling me to contact your carrier ( live connected). Seems to make me want to switch providers pretty shortly..
please let me know if you can solve your issue and maybe it can help me too.. -

I get missing plug-in error when opening my online bill which is in PDF format. I am using a 2010 Macbook with the latest version of Safari and Adobe suite installed in my computer. Why do I get this error? What should I do?
In relation to my previous inquiry regarding inability to view a pdf file using Safari...
Is it possible that I can view other online bills from other website but not this particular bill from one specific website?
Sorry if I missed any important point in this article -->Apple Safari 5.1 and Adobe Reader/Acrobat Advisory
