Time Machine using OSX Mavericks
Update: Please check you are running new enough firmware first: http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=409701#p409701 Hello there, I have a Macbook Air running OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) ba...
Like many after upgrading to 10.9 my time machine stopped working. Good news is managed to fix it, running the latest 4.1.13 RC1 build on Sparc NV+ Had similar problems saying another task was using the sparse bundle image.
Under TM preferences, went to select backup disk. Here it list the disks it can see. Hover mouse cursor over disks to see the AFP names. Noticed that as usual there were two entries in the list for ReadyNAS. So selected other disk. Looks like the syntax for an AFP link changes under Mavericks?
I also Mounted the AFP NAS in Finder and logged in as ReadyNAS as per the backups page in Frontview. Mavericks seemed to have defaulted to my name as user name, which is incorrect.
Now TM works on my NV+ on 10.9 and radiator RC1.
There still appears to be the odd issue trying to open folders in the NAS, but then went away, hopefully these will be fixed in the final release.
I am very grateful to for the continued support we have had on the NV+ for Mavericks. thanks
