Cleaning off old time machine shares
Hi! Thanks everyone on this great forum -- today I was able to upgrade to beta firmware, get Lion to work, run migration assistant via time machine, etc -- all stuff I could only do with this forum. ...
Yes, this was the problem. Changing to user mode, and following the super helpful link provided above by mdgm, was easy and fixed the problem. Thanks guys.
Any suggestions of an easier way to delete these big sparsebundles? I left it overnight but it was still trying to kill it in finder and had to cancel to take my laptop. I read mention that finder is slow for this. Is there an easy alternative for a non-technical guy, or can someone give me quick and very explicit instructions on doing it using terminal? if it's complicated, no worries, I will just leave my computer doing it for a weekend or something at some point.
It seems like, in time, this would be a good feature to build into frontview, as I'm sure it's a fairly common issue of users (a) backing up timemachine to the NAS and (b) getting a new computer
