Error 45" Mark as New Bookmark Subscribe Subscribe to RSS Feed Highlight Print Email to a Friend Report Inappropriate Content 2010-03-05 03:48 PM I struggled big time to get Time Machine to work correctly with my new Stora/Snow Leopard/Wifi combination. I kept getting the following error message: "Time the backup disk image could not be created error 1 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) Cha

Creating A Backup Disk For Windows 8
10, 2009 at 8:13PM You'll find similar information to this around the web, but I find it fiddly enough to piece creating a backup disk for windows 7 together reliably, and I need it often enough, that I thought I'd blog about it. That way it at least gives me a single place to look. Maybe it will help others too. Much https://community.netgear.com/t5/Stora-Legacy/Solution-to-quot-Time-Machine-could-not-complete-the-backup/td-p/294697 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 (as of Leopard). Unfortunately it doesn't allow http://www.levelofindirection.com/journal/2009/10/10/using-a-networked-drive-for-time-machine-backups-on-a-mac.html 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 error I have seen is: Time Machine could not complete the backup. The backup

You want to make use of this disk space to store your Time Machine backups. You open Time Machine Preferences and the only way you can add a non-local disk is via a Time Capsule or AirPort-connected storage. Now what? If this is your problem and you have upgraded to Mac OS X Lion, there is a workaround… Keep reading. The reason why Time Machine Preference Pane doesn't show network drive is likely the Mac Developer's mantra: keep simple things simple and complex things possible. Novice users, by definition, are inexperienced -- they're likely haven't gone through the pain of losing data and discounted the value of backups. Thus to not complicate things more and make it easy for most users (especially novices) Time Machine's preferences only cater for the two common cases: Directly-attached external storage (via USB, Firewire, or Thunderbolt). Time Capsule or Airport Base Station attached storage. But with Mac OS X 10.7, Apple have now made more advanced cases possible. As with most advanced stuff, you will need to open up Terminal to do it. The secret? The new tmutil command. Back to the HOWTO. In order to create a Time Machine backup on a network folder you need to follow these three steps: Create a HFS+ disk image, preferably sparse disk image, and place the disk image file into its destination folder/server where it will live. It shouldn't matter whether it is SMB (Windows) or AFP (Mac) shared folder as long as your Mac can write to it. Mount the disk image and use the tmutil com
