Why does my TC no longer tell me the date of my Oldest and Latest Backups?

When I go to Time Machine Preferences, all I see next to "Oldest Backup" and "Latest Backup" is "---". For the first several months, I was told these dates. (It does tell me when the "Next Backup" will happen.)
Why did my Time Capsule stop telling me this information?
How do I make it tell me this information?

I assume you've tried a reboot of your Mac and TC? This will force the Mac to consider the TC backup "untrustable" and do a full check of it against what's on your Mac.

  • Why does my ipod no longer play all the items in a playlist?

    Why does my ipod no longer play all the items in a playlist?  I have to go to each item individually to select it as it no longer goes from one item to the next.

    what kind of connection do you have? do you use the ipod 30 pin cable that connects directly to the head unit? it so, maybe you could get help on the alpine site, or a similar site?it could just be a bad connection. you may just have to go oldschool and use rca cables and plug those in...

  • Why does it takes so long to download the new version of Itunes?

    why does it takes so long to download the new version of Itunes?

    Since you cannot download iTunes on an iPod touch, this would not seem to be the correct forum for this question. I'd suggest you post full details of your problem in either the iTunes for Mac forum or the iTunes for Windows forum, as applicable to your system.
    Regards.

  • Why does my iPhone no longer give me the option to connect to my tv via Apple TV when on Safari as it previously did following my latest software upgrade?

    Why does my iPhone no longer give me the option to connect to my tv via Apple TV when on Safari as it previously did following my latest software upgrade?

    Thanks for your help, much appreciated.
    Same phone, same tv, same broadband network so everything the same so I assumed that it would.....just work!!! :-)
    I'm away this weekend but I'm going to turn off and reload the Apple TV to see if that might work.
    If not I may be begging your assistance again next week!!!
    Have a great weekend.

  • Why does placing links in Illustrator now change the "Date Modified" data for all of my files?

    This seems to be a new glitch that started after I installed the latest updates to Illustrator CC (2014) and reoccurs every time on both computers I work on:
    When I choose to place a new image in my Illustrator file and the window opens to let me choose a file to place, the "Date Modified" field of all the files in the folder I'm viewing (except other Illustrator files) quickly changes to the current date and time. This is definitely happening when I'm in Illustrator because when I needed files from a folder that had hundreds of images in it and I was able to select a file quickly, I was able to do so before it had changed the date on all of my files. However, when I needed a file from a folder that had hundreds of images in it but I took a long time to find the image I needed, Illustrator had time to change the date modified on all of my files. This might seem like an unimportant issue because it doesn't actually seem to modify or damage any of my files, but having all of the dates change on my files is a serious problem for my workflow and file management issues. So far, my only work around has been to use back-up image files, but that's not a long term solution and I don't understand why Illustrator should be modifying the dates of my files.
    Is there a setting I can choose somewhere to prevent this problem? If not, is there somewhere I can report this kind of glitch? I'm not sure if I'm using the exact language necessary to get the issue across so please let me know if you have any questions! Thanks!

    iCloud is not compatible with Snow Leopard, that is your problem.
    A quick way out is to purchase Soho Organizer which is compatible, even when running on Snow Leopard, it will correctly handle Contacts and Calendars from iCloud. $100, 2 user license.

  • Why does it takes so long to deliver the Retina iMac with modifications?

    I ordered an iMac 27" Retina 5K at a local retailer in Kapellen (Belgium). I have made some modifications to the basic model, e.g. Fusion HDD 3TB, more memory and so on. I am waiting for almost 4 weeks and no one can tell me when the machine will be ready. How comes? Does anybody has experience with this extremely long delivery times?

    You are absolutely right. I'm new on this forum. Sorry.
    I was only hoping that some Apple people would read this. By the way: Apple said: 3 weeks. We are starting the 5th week tomorrow, without any explanation. My apologies for my frustration.
    I see, then call Apple's online store and speak to a customer service agent. Ask for expedited shipping., don't be surprised if they say OK.

  • After clicking on a link, why does it take so long to find the site - and sometime not find it at all?

    This seemed to begin right after Firefox update several wks ago. It sometimes takes up to 2 min to find a site after I click on link (whether in an email or on another site). This has been happening at least 90% of the time since then. There have been a few times when it did NOT happen; those seemed to be earlier in the day (mid-morning on W Coast) and possibly for a couple of days after Firefox did another update a few wks after the previous one. Sometimes it does not find the site at all and I get the "Oops! Sorry" msg.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Why does it take so long to download the Epson driver update?

    App Store asked me to update my Epson printer software to 2.15.1 and I clicked OK... That was over an hour ago and it's not even at 3.6MB of the 39.7MB!!! It's giving me that crap about "7 hours and 3 minutes remaining".
    What's interesting is that just a few minutes before downloading this update, I downloaded IOS 7 and iTunes 11 in under 1 minute... Is there anyway I can find out where am I downloading this update from and what's causing it to go so slow?    

    They're around 400 - 500MB each, so it depends on the speed of your internet connection.
    After iOS 5 is released updates should be much smaller though.

  • Why does BC have so many issues in the data center?

    It just seems there are site connection and email problems way too often? I just don't have much confidence in up-time promises my clients need. Is this something engineering is trying to address or are there big changes going on that are causing temporary instability?

    Thank you for your "copy and paste" reply. It is very obvious that you did NOT read my original post.
    If you had you would have noticed:
    a) I stated: "I run the default theme"
    and that
    b)I stated: "I have disabled "hardware acceleration""
    c)I stated: "changed the value for "dom.max_script_run_time" to 20 "
    (both of which are in response to the linked help article that you recommended - and neither of which did any good)
    d) I also stated: "The only plugin I use is Flash"
    (which is the latest up-to-date version and if Firefox cannot run with Flash it is of no use as a browser)
    I will try "Safe Mode" and post how that works after browsing Facebook - but it should not be necessary to do this.
    I had reported similar issues with Firefox two or three builds back (Firefox 19.0.2) then the issue was fixed for a couple of builds - and now with the release of Firefox 22.0 (on Mac) it is as bad or worse than ever.

  • Why does it take so long to receive your itunes receipt

    When you buy something on itunes why does it take so long to receive the receipt??

    Because the receipt usually gathers all your purchases over the course of a week or so and combines them into one receipt. Do you really want a receipt for every app or song you download??

  • Why does it take so long to access older messages on this site?

    Just curious, but why does it take so long to access the older messages
    (and related responses) on this site?
    When I do a search, the list of results comes up immediately, but when
    I click on an entry to see the full message I run into problems. If
    the entry is relatively new (say less than six months old), the full
    message and related responses displays within seconds, but if it is
    old than that, it can take up to 15 minutes or more to display
    everything.
    I have tried different browser, different operating systems, with and
    without proxies and firewalls, on T1, on DSL, on dial-up, and the same
    thing always happens.
    Anyone know what is causing this, and a way I can fix it?
    Thanks

    Hey that happens to me too....I think they are archived a different way then the new post, so it takes longer to retrieve them.

  • TS1702 why does it take so long for the updates to download on my ipad?

    why does it take so long to for the undated Apps to download??

    First shut down the text app and clear both
    cache and data and do a normal power cycle. Follow that with  a system cache clear and then restart the text app again and restore your preferred settings for the app.

  • Why does it take so long to download software like Adobe to a Mac laptop

    I just recently bought a MacBook Pro and I am installing Adobe Reader and it is taking sooooo long to install.  I have been installing since 8:30 pm and its now 10:27 and its only up to 42%.  Why does it taking so long?  Also I have downloading other software and it took forever as well.  Why does it take son long to download software to the Mac?

    Something is obviously wrong.
    Stop the download and take the machine back to Apple as you have 90 days free support.
    They will test the machine to see if it's a hardware issue or a problem with the Mac itself.
    If they say it's fine and it surfs/downloads fast on their connections, then it's likely something wrong with your home network or router.
    Did you by any chance change your DNS settings in Network?
    This could be the problem, delete what you entered and reboot the machine, the ISP's default DNS settings will return.
    To OpenDNS? On the router? Are you using your own router of it someone managing it for you?
    Are you over 21 and can you legally surf for adult sites? If some sort of filtering is on, this could be the cause.
    OpenDNS doesn't have servers everywhere, so it causes certain downloads from Akamai servers to come from a lot farther away than your ISP servers.
    Have you run Internet speed tests? Using other machines on your network are they fast?
    Is your router or modem old? Did you power them off, wait 30 seconds and power them back on?
    It's rather a lot to try to figure out network issues, you may have to call in a local professional.

    Why does it take so long to receive an email from find my iphone

    Well, first off, you do not know where your iPhone is..it could be anywhere and on any network with a
