![]() The first sign of a problem was a popup on my machine about ‘Time Machine couldn’t complete backup…. I’m running OSX Yosemite – that’s 4 versions later… I’m documenting everything I went through to get my backups working again so that someone else can save their time! If you find these instructions valuable, please add comments or likes. Some sites claim that it has to do with an error introduced with OSX Snow Lepeord. The sad part is that the error I received has been reported as far back as 2010 - Apple still hasn’t fixed it, or explained the cause. It took me a bit of effort to dig through various websites to figure it all out. I’ve had a couple of old laptops that had had met untimely deaths and still needed to have everything copied from their respective hard drives, I had a bunch of different photo libraries and outlook PST files sitting around that needed to be consolidated, all of them more tedious than difficult, but when my Mac Time Machine crashed – that was a pain to deal with.Īpple, being true to their delusions that ‘things just work’, really means that when things do actually fail, it is that much more difficult to determine how to fix it.Ī couple of weeks ago, my Time Machine back up to my Synology DS 412+ NAS started to give me errors. ![]() This past couple months have been a time of experimenting and cleaning up household ‘tech debt’. If you find these instructions valuable, please provide some feedback and/or comments so that I can feel good about myself □
