Time machine wont recognize my drive since Yosemite Upgrade
Well it was happily working for a while... But now time machine won't see my NAS in the select backup list.
System:
Yosemite 10.10.2 on MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)
ReadyNAS NVX Pioneer Edition
RAIDiator 4.2.27
Some additional information:
In the finder, when I connect to "afp://192.168.1.150/ReadyNAS" it says not found.
However I can connect to one of my shares "afp://192.168.1.150/media".
FWIW - I also noticed that RAIDar (4.1.4) doesn't see my NAS anymore.
I turned off time machine in the config, changed the password and turned it back on. That didn't work.

- It should be working fine with that firmware. Can you send me your logs (see the link in my sig)
What's the capacity of your volume and the volume usage like? - I was having a somewhat similar problem.
On my RN3130 running 6.2.2, I was unable to see the Private Time Machine backup disks on my Macs until I enabled the Share Time Machine. After I did that the Private Time Machine disks magically appeared on my Macs.

I had the same problem and this solution fixed it. Thanks (but I don't understand why it worked!)
Another observation since Yosemite which is possibly related is that the name of the NAS changed from HomeNAS to homenas despite staying as HomeNAS in ReadyCLOUD. I would have thought that Time Machine wasn't case sensitive even though the ReadyNAS is Linux-based.
Thanks again, Henry.- Unfortunately the above solution wasn't a permanent fix. HomeNAS no longer appears in finder and Time Machine can't find the disk. Finder sees HomeNAS (SMB) and the shares. I can usually correct the problem by going in through Raidar, Selecting a Time Machine user, clicking on Settings then Apply (without changing anything). A solution would be much appreciated.
ReadyNAS 102 with 6.2.4; Yosemite 10.10.2 - Is your Mac connected to your network via ethernet or Wi-Fi?

Normally via WiFi (Netgear R7000) but same behaviour when via ethernet.- Getting "HomeNAS" to come up in Finder by opening a Time Machine user in the Backup section of the ReadyNas Admin page also behaves the same for both WiFi and ethernet.
