Now that I've got everything sorted out, I'm ready the backup disk image could not be created error 1 to do the initial time machine back up on it. I went into preferences, changed the backup location to my TC and the backup disk image could not be created error 22 clicked 'back up now'. Very quickly I get a message that the backup failed: "Time Machine Error - The backup disk image could not be created".I've searched the apple support area but haven't been able to figure this creating a backup disk for windows 8 one out. Can anyone help, please? This is an initial backup. (FYI, it worked great on my old external drive.)Many thanks Macbook air, Mac OS X (10.5.2) Posted on Mar 1, 2008 8:36 PM I have this question too Close Q: Time Machine error: backup disk image could not be created All replies Helpful answers Previous Page 2 of 3 last Next by Mario Batz, Mario Batz Apr 5, 2008 10:46 PM in response to
Creating A Backup Disk For Windows 7
Mario Batz Level 1 (5 points) iTunes Apr 5, 2008 10:46 PM in response to Mario Batz Hi,I forgot to say that I tried all the proposals in this forum. The computer name is OK. etc.However, I noticed that my computer is still not appearing on my local network for sharing, even though sharing is enabled in the System Preference.Might it be that there is still a problem with the computer name anywhere else.To it also looks like there would be a relict in the time machine conf. I trashed the plist file, but no change.The weird thing is that I can still activate Time Machine when the external disk is connected., but there are of course no backups. And all this without a sparse image that exists on the disk.

I'm a registered mac developer), and the problem is still there. Unfortunately, https://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?t=41281 I never tested it with a clean Lion install to verify if it was working.Permission are properly set (I've verified). The folder "DSHLaptop.tmp.sparsebundle" gets created in the backup folder when the backup starts, but then it just quits with error"The backup disk image “/Volumes/Backup/DSHLaptop.sparsebundle” could not be created (error 10).Obviously my hostname is DSHLaptop. No idea what to do.Very not fun.---EDIT - SOLVED I have a Time Capsule which I was using for backups. Needless to say it was unreliable, so that's why I wanted to make the switch over to my 1511+. I had never previously used it on any DSM Version nor OSX release. Anyway, here is how I got things working under OSX Lion version 10.7.2 (11C55) (I'm a registered Mac/IOS Developer), hence the beta release. If you follow the instructions to the letter, I can guarantee it will work. I was previously getting Error 10 constantly.1) I created a new network share on DSM called "Time Capsule" and a new user named "TimeCapsule". 2) Then, I mounted the existing Time Machine (The one I was no longer going to be using). The folder contained two files: a hidden file called ".com.apple.timemachine.supported" (which had no contents... ju

That way it at least gives me a single place to look. Maybe it backup disk will help others too. Much of the specifcs, especially the hdiutil command line and the ifconfig trick, I sourced from this thread in the ReadyNAS forums. Note that the advice is by no means specific to ReadyNAS drives (I have a Thecus NAS myself). Many thanks to btaroli in that thread for the insight. Time Machine Time Machine is Apple's easy-to-use backup system, baked into OS X could not be (as of Leopard). Unfortunately it doesn't allow you to back-up to a networked drive out of the box. Enabling this ability is pretty easy. Early on there were some reliability issues - which were largely due to the fact that Time Machine created a disk image (more specifically, a sparse bundle) on the network drive, and this was prone to corruption if the network connection was disrupted during a backup. I don't know if all the issues here have been entirely resolved now, but it does seem more reliable. Apple's own Time Capsule, which has been specifically designed to work with Time Machine, uses this same method, so it is no longer an entirely unsupported technique. Enabling Time Machine for network drives So how do you enable backing up to network drives? Open a terminal window and paste the following in (then hit return, of course): defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 1 Mounted network drives will then show up in the list of destinations available for storing backups. Getting a working disk image Unfortunately this is not always enough. Often, after doing this, Time Machine will appear to start preparing a backup then fail with a cryptic error code. The

I kept getting the following error message: "Time Machine could not complete the backup. The backup disk image could not be created (error 45)"This is how to fix it and get your backups working (follow carefully and in order and you'll have it up and running in no time):The basic concept is Time Machine needs to create a sparsebundle image to save the backups to. The key here is creating your own, BUT knowing where to save it on the Stora and knowing where to point Time Machine to using it.1) Firstly, be sure to enable the 'Computer Backups' feature in the Stora Preferences (through the landing page), and assign a password (I found it worked best for me to use the same password that i used for the main admin user of the Stora).2) Go to System Preferences on your Mac > Sharing and make sure you have a computer name, no more than 8 characters. For instance i use: mymac. Remember this name, you will need it later!3) Open Utilities > Terminal and type in:ifconfig en0 | grep etherThis will display your ethernet address. You will get something similar to 00:1f:f3:46:61:04. Keep this window open, you will need it later!4) Open Utilities > Disk Utilitya) Select the "New Image" option to create you new disk image and save it to your Desktop.b) Start at the bottom with changing the Image Format to "sparse bundle disk image".c) Change "Partitions" selection to "No partition map."d) Leave "Encryption" as is,
