IMac (Intel) :: How To Access Photos From Time Machine Backup Drive

Sep 6, 2014

I have an iMac desktop with OS X version 10.9.4 Mavericks operating system.  Processor 2.06 core 2 duo Memory 4GB 1067 MHx startup disk hard drive. 

Problem is I deleted some photos from my hard drive to free up space, thinking I could access them from my backup drive if I needed to.  However, when I try to get the photos through my TimeMchine backup drive, it won't let me, saying it's not the original library. How do I access my old backed up photos?

IMac (Intel) :: Unable To Access A Certain Link By One Account

Jun 5, 2014

I use safari on my imac. I was able to access a shared link (to access a briefcase) via a university website. It requires me to enter ID and password to access the briefcase. It also requires me to enter my ID and password whenever I click a new file in the briefcase. The shared link was okay until I let Safari remember my password. Now when I click the shared link, it says "Error 404! No such item". I am not able to access that shared link.  

I tried to log on my imac with another user/account, and found out that the shared link is still working. I also tried to use my macbook and the link is working as well. So i guess that it must be something wrong when I let Safari remember my password the first time when I accessed that link. I have done Safari Reset and cleared all history, cookies, passwords, etc... but I am still not able to access that link under my own account.

IMac (Intel) :: Cannot Access Safari 8.0.2 On Yosemite After Update

Dec 12, 2014

Appstore automatically updated Safari to 8.0.2 this morning, but now I can't access the program. When I start Safari it takes a while to get going, a window opens for a moment with a spinning wheel and then the program crashes. I'm using a mid 2007 20" IMac (2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 4GB of memoryrunning Yosemite. 

The system error report which gets sent to Apple makes no sense to me, as I don't have any technical knowledge, but scrolling through the report I found this section which refers to something crashing,.

IMac (Intel) :: No Space On Backup Hard Drive?

Dec 11, 2014

I am unable to move files from a 250 GB backup hard drive to a 1.0 TB b/c I keep getting the warning that isn’t enough space. Get Info says that 999.72 GB on it are in use. But the 1.0 TB was almost empty. If I add up the space of each of the 3 or 4 items on it, I get less than 20GB. What’s taking up the other 979 GB?For background, I now have iMac backed up with LaCie 2Big NAS system. The 250 GB is primarily to hold iPhoto Library and backup copies of original photos. the 250 GB is full. So I am trying to switch over from 250 to the 1.0 TB for photos. Moved a few smaller files over, but then could move no more. Thought of running disk utility to erase the 1.0 TB, but now I can’t move the few files on it back to 250 GB, but of error message that it too is full.I did run Repair Disk on 1.0TB before started trying to move files.

IMac Intel :: Unable To Turn On System / Changed Access Settings Of Some Files

Apr 3, 2009

My girlfriend changed the user's name and the problems started (iMac wouldn't remeber system settings and denied access to some files and catalogs). When I wanted to fix the problem I probably made a mistake and changed the access settings of some files (finally even hard disk's settings). After this action my iMac doesn't start (the screen is white with the apple logo and nothing happens). Is there anybody who knows what to do now?

IMac (Intel) :: Time Machine / External HD And Copying Backup To Desktop

Jun 5, 2014

I've recently starting having problems with my external HD that I use for my Time Machine backups. I'm not able to repair the drive using Disk Elements, so I want to copy some of my backups stored therein onto my Mac HD before I try reformatting the external HD. However, I get the error message "The volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup" when I try dragging the backup folders onto my desktop. Is there any way to salvage the backups before I try reformatting?

IMac (Intel) :: Amount Being Backed Up By Time Machine Keeps Growing During Full Backup?

Dec 6, 2014

After some problems with Time Machine backup, I removed a bunch of stuff from my internal hard drive, reformatted my external HD used for backups, and started a new full backup.  Time Machine has been running for about 24 hours and gives me a status of Backing up: xx GB of yy GB.  Both xx and yy keep growing (apace) so that I don't believe xx will ever equal yy.   

To cryptic?  Here are real numbers.  My internal disk being backed up contains 469.39 GB.  Backup status now says Backing up: 685.78GB of 754.42 GB.  Both numbers just keep growing. I'm happy to let Time Machine overnight (again) but, really, this can't be normal.

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)

MacBook Pro :: Cannot Access Mac OS X Drive During Backup

Jun 11, 2012

It has served me well over the past couple of years, however recently it suffered a fatal accident and I am wishing to backup my data before purchasing a new Macbook Pro. In addition to using Mac OS X, I also dual-booted my Macbook Pro with Windows 7, thus I have two partitions: BOOTCAMP (usually marked as drive letter F:) and Macintosh (usually marked as drive letter E:). I am no longer under warranty for my Macbook Pro, so I took matters into my own hands and removed the hard drive from the laptop. I hooked the harddrive up to a SATA-to-USB converter in order to retrieve my files from the harddrive using a separate laptop and save them to a secondary storage drive.

Upon powering up my SATA-to-USB converter (using a separate laptop running Windows 7), I have found that the harddrive from my Macbook Pro only shows the BOOTCAMP partition and not the original Macintosh partition (a partition containing several important files I wish I retrieve). I was able to successfully backup all my data from the BOOTCAMP partition, but I cannot access the Macintosh partition (I only need to copy several files from the partition onto my secondary storage device).

Info:MacBookPro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

Hardware :: New External CD/DVD Burner - Way To Access Backup Files

Jul 17, 2010

My iMac (Model 4,1 operating 10.6.4) drive has made some funny noises recently when inserting disks. I want to back up Pages documents to DVD's so that I can take them to a print shop if needed later. I have an Iomega back up hard drive but I really want an external burner. I used to have a Tower years ago and loved the front loading slot (great for burning Word, Excel, Pages and PDF files to DVD's}. While I have the Iomga back up drive, that will not help if my computer sighs it's last breath & I need to access some of the back up files.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Can't Access Oldest Backup From Time Machine

Mar 12, 2012

In my Time Machine preferences, it says my oldest backup is Feb. 3, 2012.  However, when I enter the Time Machine interface, I can only go back to March 7, 2012. 

When I look inside the hard drive from my finder, it also only has folders that date back to March 7.

I know that the other data is in there somewhere though, because the drive space is used up more than just a couple days worth of backups. accessing my old backups past March 7?

OS X :: Time Machine Fails To Backup - No Access To A Specific File?

The following error message appears when I attempt backup using TM;

"You do not have appropriate access privileges to save file ".0019e33d49f6" in folder "Time Machine Backups".To view or change access privileges, select the item in Finder and choose File > Get Info."

Spotlight can't locate this file, I've ran disk utility to verify and repair the internal drive, verified the external, no problems on both counts. I even tried allowing read & write privileges temporarily to everyone on both drives, but no luck.
