OS X :: Backup Copy Of Leopard On Disc
Mar 16, 2009I am trying to make a back up copy of Leopard on disc but the files don't show up when I insert the disc in my windows PC (running XP Pro). I want to burn a back up disc for my own purpose and unfortunately only have a dvd writer on my PC. Can someone advise please as I can't seem to find an option on my PC saying show hidden files etc, if that's the case?

Mar 12, 2012I used migration assn't to load a Time Machine backup onto a new mac.The first TM backup after that took some time, perhaps not surprising.But the backups thereafter have all taken hours, with huge amounts of "indexing" time. Time to reload TM?

OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: New HDD, Tried To Restore From TM Backup Now New Disc Full?
Jul 5, 2012My mac HD failed, I had a new one installed. I tried to restore from external TM backup, but it didn't seem to work. I tried two times - the second time, it failed and indicated that I didn't have space on my new drive. My original drive was 320g, new drive is 500g. I had about 80g of data on the new drive. Finder now shows that the new drive has only 25g available (old backup was about 280g). My attempt to restore to my last backup (3/27/2012) didn't seem to work, my old files are not on my new machine.  Â
I'm thinking my best bet is just to undo whatever has been done to my new drive. I don't have a problem formatting the new drive, as there is nothing really on it that must be saved at this point. I am not well versed in Macs (obviously), but I have enough tech sense to follow steps if somebody could offer them. How can I undo this? Should I just format the new HD and do a Snow Leopard install from scratch, and then try again to restore from my time machine backup?Â

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Error Occurred While Copying Files To Backup Disc
Jun 25, 2012Skipping all the fine details, my MBP is having insane freezing issues and I need to reinstall Lion ASAP. But I also need to backup my files since I haven't been able to backup in a month. Yet whenever I try to backup, I'm told: The backup was not performed because an error occurred while copying files to the backup disk. While Trying to repair my external drive thinking it was the problem initially, I verified and repaired that disc and still had the problem. I tried verifying/repairing my permissions for my internal drive, and I get these amounts of errors: [URL]. No idea what these mean.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: Install Disc Won't Load?
Mar 30, 2012I'm trying to re-install the OS on a MacBook Pro that i'm selling so as to erase all my data from it, however the Install Disc will not start up to run the Installer. I load it, press install, it says it has to Restart, i click ok and it then begins to restart but then just stops at a white screen. The disc drive goes quiet as well. I've tried just starting and holding C down as well. Same result.Â
Just wondering if anyone knows a way around this? Or is it probably a dodgy disc? It seems to be fine until it tries to start up from the disc.

Windows On Mac :: Full Install Leopard / SL Disc To Run Bootcamp / Update Disc?
Oct 13, 2009Please take pity on a confused newbie. I'm running 10.4.11 (Tiger) on a 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 13" Macbook with 1GB ram. My school requires me to run Bootcamp to take my exams. They told us that we need 10.5 minimum OS and must have our 'original system discs'. The installation dics that I have are for Tiger. If I buy an upgrade disc to Leopard/SL, will that contain the windows drivers I need to install after I install bootcamp? Or do I need to buy a full installation disc of Snow Leopard (since I think you can't buy the Leopard full installation anymore)? Another issue someone mentioned is that both Leopard & SL require 1BG ram minimum, which is what I have. I'm worried the os will run very slow, but I don't really have the money to buy new ram and get it install (and don't want to crack the fragile top case) now that I have to buy the new software too.
View 7 Replies View RelatedMacBook Air :: Ripping Leopard Install Disc Via Remote Disc
Jun 2, 2008Well, my question is very simple: I have a MBA and this other laptop from work, a crappy HP which is old as hell. I'm planning to use Remote Disc to reinstall my Leopard, since the upgrade to 10.5.3 really screwed things here, and I can't figure out why. Point is: instead of running all Leopard installation thru Remote Disc, I would prefer to share Leopard disc 1 over Remote Disc and restore it to a partition on my external HD, making a clone of it, which would install *much* faster. Has anyone tried anything like this? There's any Windows program which allows me to rip a Mac DVD to a Mac partition?

OS X :: MBP Disc Drive Won't Recognize Snow Leopard Disc?
Aug 29, 2009I have a 2007 Intel MBP, running Leopard. I purchased the family version of Snow Leopard. When I tried to install it, it just spins the disc for a minute, makes the noise like it's trying to read it and then spits it out. All other discs work fine with my MBP so I know it is not the disc drive itself. I have all software "up to date." My brother installed SL on both of his MBs, one newer than mine and one older, just fine (with the same disc). I haven't seen anything out there with this issue so I wanted to start a thread to see if anyone knows how to resolve this issue (beyond taking it back to Apple and exchanging).

View 4 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Backup A Grey ILife Restore Disc?
May 8, 2009A baby managed to get its hands on one of my very important grey iLife restore discs. It appears to be severely scratched, though I do not have access to my mac at the moment to make check on whether it is working or not. Nonetheless, in an effort to salvage it, is there any way to make an identical copy for backup purposes? As in, rip the contents of the original DVD and then burn them to a blank DVD?
I am not financially prepared to pay some ludicrous price to get a replacement from apple, and would like to try everything I can before I resort to... other means of obtaining iLife.

OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Time Machine Backup Freezes On Initial Backup Attempt?
Mar 20, 2012I just purchased a Seagate 3 TB USB 2.0/3.0 external drive to use as my time machine backup drive. I have a MacBook Pro that was purchased about 3-4 years ago. The MacBook Pro has a 120 GB hard drive and is currently running MAC OSx 10.6.8. I also have another WD 1 TB FireWire external drive that I use to store all of my media files. Â
After I followed the instructions for installing the new Seagate drive for use with the MAC OSx, I initiated a time machine backup. It very quickly determined that it needed to back up almost 900,000 files totaling just about 400 GB. It started the backup process at a rate of about 1 GB per minute. In a little less than an hour it reach 53 GB and remained there for an additional two hours before I decided to stop the backup. Â
Once I got the backup stopped, I deleted the backup and decided to look at my energy saving settings. I noticed that the "Put drives to sleep whenever possible" check box was checked, so I unchecked that option and restarted the MAC. I then initiated the time machine backup again. Like the first time it quickly determined that it needed to backup the same amount of data as before and started the backup process at a rate of about 1 GB per minute. Before going to bed at around 11 PM last night it was at about 60 GB so I thought I was out of the woods (having gotten further than the 53 GB earlier). When I woke up this morning at 5:30 AM it was sitting at 69 GB.Â
I am really frustrated at this point and don't know why the time machine back up would be failing on a brand new hard drive. PS - I was previously using a Seagate 1.5 TB USB drive as my time machine backup and never had any issues with it. I decided to use the 1.5 TB drive for a different purpose, which is why I have the new 3 TB drive to use as a backup. And I still have the full backup on the 1.5 TB drive just in case anything were to go awry.

Mac Mini :: Creating Usb Restore Disc / Load Mini SL Client On Server Via Usb Drive?
Jul 1, 2010I do have a copy of the the Mac Mini SL Client software but I don't have another Mac to create the USB restore disc in order to load the client on the Mini Server via usb drive. I don't intend to use the Server Software and don't want to 'activate' the license so I can resell it instead. Can I just use the Server to create the bootable restore disc without 'activating' the Server License and locking it to my serial number? Or is there another way to create the restore disc if you don't have access to another Mac to run disc utility?

OS X V10.5 Leopard :: Backup Drive Ejects After TM Backup?
May 7, 2012I have an external 1TB WD My Passport drive which I use for TM backup's. When I plug in via USB, DriveUnlock appears. I unlock the drive, then instigate a TM backup. All goes fine, then from what I can gather, when the TM backup has finished, the drive ejects itself. There is no error messages, unmount drive issues, it just dissappears from finder. I can only assume the backup has been successful, as no error messages appear, meaning the drive wasn't ejected while backup was in progress. I have changed the USB cable, as well as tried different ports, but the same always happens. In System Preferencies/Energy Saver, I have made sure the Put HD to sleep is un ticked. Still it happens. Has anyone else had this problem, and is it fixable? I would love to keep the drive attached and backing up for the period I am working, usually 12 hours a day, rather than the once a day at the moment.Â
