Jun 6, 2010I have a MBP, and every few days I back it up using time machine. For some reason it's been scanning hundreds of thousands of files and than it backs up tons of GB's. Like today it tried to back up 30 GB's but the last time I backed it up was 4 days ago, and I doubt I changed THAT much stuff on my laptop. Is this normal? If not, what can I do to fix it.

View 3 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Backing Up Data For A New Hard Drive Installation?
Feb 11, 2010I've been looking into this a lot the passed few days, but there are a few answers I just can't find.
First of all, I know how to physically take apart my mac and put the new hard drive in. I have the new hard drive, and the tools I need.
The method I chose (before I looked into how to xfer data using macs) was to use time machine to make a backup of my entire hard drive on an external, which I did successfully.
However, before I take apart my mac and instal the new hard drive, there are a few things I want to be clear on, and I can't find the answers to.
Will I need the leopard OS disc for the new hard drive? Or does time capsule back up the OS as well, and give me some sort of prompt (doubtful)?
I have the pre late 2008 macbook pro, and it came with leopard. I haven't upgraded for several reasons I won't get into. My question now is, should I have the leopard OS disc? SHouldn't something like that have come with my mac? I ask because I feel like I should have one, but I don't remember getting one and can't find it anywhere. I always keep things like that.
And lastly, if I don't have the leopard OS disc, what do you think is the cheapest way for me to back up and xfer my data?
I have external hard drives, my new hard drive, and my old hard drive. Would it be cheaper for me to buy one of those things that directly xfers the data from one internal drive to another, or to buy another leopard disc? Is there a way I can just order the leopard disc I should have already for cheaper?

May 19, 2012I have over 200gb of data, but when I use time machine to back up, its only backing up 64gb. I don't know if this is relevant but I had to erase the previous backup on my hard drive because I didn't have enough space for new backups.

Software :: Time Machine Backing Up Ghost Data
Jul 24, 2008Okay, maybe this is an isolated problem. I feel like I should be able to solve it, but so far I haven't been able to. Surely if it was widespread it would be talked about all over the Internet, but my searches aren't turning up anything. All right, let's cut to the chase:
Time Machine, ever since I got 10.5 (to the best of my knowledge) has been backing up 1.6GB of unknown data at least once a day, but on no discernibly regular schedule. This is unrelated to the fact that I change data on my drive all the time, and this gets backed up exactly as you would expect. The 1.6GB is on top of whatever routine stuff needs backing up. It simply seems to once in a while find 1.6GB of data that was changed, and whumph, there goes another 1.6GB on the RAID I back up on. It may be a big drive, but it will run out of space at some point, and way way way sooner than it should be running out of space as long as this continues. I am completely fed up with this problem and would have long since moved back to a previous backup scheme if that scheme allowed me to restore past iterations of files and un-delete data, which it did not. And let's face it, Time Machine is so darn cool that you want it to work even when it doesn't.
I checked the obvious large files that reside in the background while you work: Photoshop scratch disk (it's set to use the RAID right now, so it's obviously not the culprit), Parallels HDD image (I thought so at one time, but now I'm using my Boot Camp partition with Parallels, and not even booting into that partition for weeks at a time, and it still finds the 1.6GB changed almost every day or so)... I don't have any large media on the internal HD (that's what the RAID is for, if it doesn't run out of space because of Time Machine!), so I can't think of what else to look for. I saw that Time Machine keeps backup logs, but they don't list what files were backed up :-(
I realize a problem like this might be particularly hard to diagnose without being at the computer, but any ideas at all would really be appreciated.
It's also not Final Cut Express, which is set to use the RAID as the scratch disk. However, I have been in Final Cut an awful lot today, and I have seen a few or several 1.6GB backups today as well, which is unprecedented. It's rarely more than two a day. But all that's been different today is leaving FCE open, nothing else I can think of. But the 1.6GB backups occur even on days that FCE was never open.
MacBook Pro :: Backing Up User Data From Unbootable Laptop
Aug 21, 2014Recently my macbook pro was being fussy, and eventually failed to boot (get grey screen with apple and load bar, but doesn't completely load before shutting down). I did a recovery boot and tried to repair the disc, which didn't work.
I would like to pull all of the User data (music) off of the old hard drive-and move to an external hard drive- before erasing and reformatting (might not be the correct term). I am currently running 10.9.4 mavericks and optical drive pooped out a while ago.

OS X :: Unable To Setup Time Machine / Backing Up Data On Windows Xp
Dec 30, 2007I really love Time machine and I'm using it on my internal drive. I know it not the best way to secure data. That why I'm planning to buy external hard drive. I read time machine and backup data on network drive, running leopard.
I'm wondering is there any way to setup time machine to backup my data on network hard drive running Windows XP. I use my macbook with my windows desktop PC for internet and sharing file. It would be great if time machine can backup data on my windows desktop network hard drive.
Applications :: Backing Up Data On Xp / Program Similar To Time Machine
Mar 28, 2009I know this is a Mac forum, but i need a little help finding a program and I thought I'd get the best results here. I'm looking for a program that is similar to OSX's Time Machine to backup my parent's PC. It is an HP and runs Windows XP and I have a Western Digital 750 GB USB external drive. Really, the main thing I want to backup is documents and music files. is there a program similar to Time Machine for Windows XP? Something I can set up to backup new files every few days or so?
IMac :: Disk Utility RAID Setup - Backing Up Data
Jul 11, 2010I have a couple of questions regarding backing up my external drive. I've got a 2TB external drive with about 1.5TB of movies, Music etc. I've got another identical empty drive that I want to keep a backup of the first drive on. So my question is what is the best way of backing up this data? I thought of using disk utility(I'm running snow leopard 10.6.4 if that makes any difference) to created a mirrored RAID set. If I plug in the empty drive then create the RAID set will my first drive get wiped when the set is created? or with it leave the data on the first drive intact? Or should I just use something like crashplan to backup to the 2nd drive?
View 2 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: Backing Up Data From Time Machine / Router Not Detecting HDD?
Aug 11, 2010I currently have a wireless router with a functionality called ReadyShare and I also have a 320GB external USB HDD. I would like to be able to plug my HFS+ formatted HDD into my router and be able to use it as a wireless backup solution for Time Machine. The problem is that the router doesn't even detect the HDD so it is unable to share it throughout the network.
Another solution I had thought of was to connect the device to a Windows tower downstairs and then share it throughout the network. The problem here is that there is no free (read: FREE) software that I know of that allows Windows to detect HFS+ formatted drives in Windows Explorer in order to share them.I do know of software that lets Windows read them but there isn't anything that I know of that lets them be mounted in My Computer and treated like a normal drive.
This got me thinking... What if I install the Boot Camp drivers onto the machine downstairs. If I recall correctly, the Boot Camp drivers let Windows do exactly what I am trying to do. But I don't know if this is possible due to hardware differences, etc.

ICloud :: FaceTime Between Mac And IPad With One Account?
May 31, 2012I moved my MobileMe account to iCloud and want to set up my Mac so I can call my new iPad with FaceTime. In the iCloud system preferences I have "Mail and Notes" unchecked but the sole email account in Mail preferences is pointed to the iCloud mail server and I am receiving Mail. The account appears in Mail and seems to be functioing normally. If I check the "Mail and Notes" option in the system preferences a second iCloud Mail account appears in Mail with identical contents to the one that is there with this option unchecked. I'd rather not have this duplicate set of mailboxes in Mail so I'm leaving the option unchecked (is this OK?). I added my AOL address as a second email address to my Apple ID so I can use my AIM account with FaceTime and have set FaceTime to receive calls to my AIM address and I have added a contact with my iCloud email address.
On my iPad, I have set up FaceTime to receive calls to my iCloud email address and added a contact with my AIM address. This set up works when calling my Mac from my iPad but does not work the other way. How do I get it to work in both directions?
