Thireus Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Hi all, I installed Brazilian 10.5 version and set up Time Machine. It's actualy using onother formated partition (Journaled) on the same hard drive as Leopard. There's 58Go of free space, but I don't know why, Time Machine tell me that it's unable to complete backup... Can someone help me? Thanks in advance.

theotheo Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Also, make sure not only you partition is Journaled, your backup drive must also be formatted using Guid, not MBR!!!

theotheo Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 is the disk you're using for timemachine the same as your boot disk. if it is, it wont work If not, make sure the DISK (not partition) is using the GUID scheme, NOT MBR. (osx86 wont boot unless it's formatted MBR that's why the above wont work) The above post shows the partition, we need the disk info, not partition.

Thireus Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 Okay thanks, hahaha I saw the MBR information XD Okay that was the prob. So the only thing I have to do is to lose 160Go of data... to have a Guid hard drive...

theotheo Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 My suggestion would be a second internal harddisk or a usb drive to make sure your data is safe. REMBER; your osx drive cannot be partitioned using guid because is simply wont boot that way. So a spare drive is your only out here :-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/69010-unable-to-complete-backup/#findComment-490547 Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSXon86 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 man, i accidently corrupted the partition in manual editing (sc9-a5393as-dev.-hdpart.) too bad i didnt here that earlier Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/69010-unable-to-complete-backup/#findComment-496259 Share on other sites More sharing options...
