The changes seems to have moved the needle; now at about 84% done after four hours so that’s something.
Curiously enough the High #Tidemark for the TimeMachine snapshot is at 4.61 EB (that would be Exabytes) which seems somewhat insane given the entire drive is just over 2 TB. Wasn’t planning on it but that definitely rules out ever resizing the partition.
Some times I despair of Apple’s #TimeMachine. For a “It just works” backup solution, it so often just doesn’t. Currently it’s refusing to finish a network backup — and not an huge one by current standards according to the 1.5 GB snapshot on the local disk — so after a week of this I upgraded the backup drive to APFS, changed the way the drive was shared to use the ”new” official mechanism, and started over.
Now to wait to see if it progresses; it already took half an hour to verify the disk…
We joined this platform 3 months ago and couldn't be happier with our decision. So to commemorate this milestone we just made our Instagram account friends only. Check out our story to see our last IG post! We think you'll like it. It's a big step towards winding things down over on that platform, and we intend to be fully off of all META owned entities by 2026. But we're hoping to use our remaining time there to bring a few friends over to the good side here in the Fediverse.
How do I back up files from my #Mac to #NAS using #TimeMachine
Ran into a weird #TimeMachine issue: backups would fail when the Mac was locked. I wrote up the workaround in a blog post. If you know a better fix than rewriting the files, let me know!

I'm wondering what I'd have to alter in history (If I had access to a #timemachine )
To make this ever repeating #totp 1997 end.
Please make it end!

Is there a way to move time machine backups from a SSD to a new one? Mine is maxed out (and 2 terabytes) and I want to replace it without losing the existing files. The SSD has 4 separate Mac backups on it.

Migration auf neuen #MacBookAir aus #TimeMachine Backup, was eine externe SSD ist …
Ich suche in der Kabelkiste nach einem USB-C auf USB-C … Gerät fängt an … um die 30 MB/s… dauert „noch etwa 4,5 Stunden“ 
Abbruch, zurück setzen neu starten
Kabel von einer anderen Backup-Platte entwendet: Nun kopiert es mit 630-700+ MB/s und will so in ca 20 Minuten fertig sein 
OK, this was a weird one. A failing SSD didn't help things at all, but the real reason appears to unneeded extended attributes on a specific directory, as detailed here: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/283518/time-machine-always-makes-a-full-backup . Thanks to @gsymon who threw in some good suggestions. #MacOS #TimeMachine #Spotlight
Has any #MacOS user have #TimeMachine start making effectively full backups every time? Using BackupLoupe it looks as if every file it backs up (including all of say /Applications) is being picked because the Attributes Modified / Last Accessed timestamps are changing. For stuff I know I've never touched.
Could this be #Spotlight off on a frolic?
Hey smart #Mac people: Is there a way to tell #TimeMachine to not backup every hour while sleeping? Seems a bit aggressive. Every 6 or 12 hours seems more reasonable for my needs
I restored some files using macOS Paranoia's Time Machine. Worked great. But then Apple decided I wasn't allowed to do anything to any of my files anymore. Couldn't rename them, delete them, open them, nothing. Restarting the Finder didn't help. Rebooting did.
Hi @frawi,
ja, #lol, Cloud kam mir als #permacomputing Apostel, der ich bin, gar nicht in den Sinn. Der Erreichbarkeit und Datentransfermengen wegen. Die #TimeMachine war IMO Peak-Private-Backup und wahrscheinich das Beste, was Jobs' Firmen für die Menschheit getan haben. So eine tolle #UX für #rsync.
lol, jetzt bin ich doch glatt dieser #Cloudspeicher-Werbekampagne auf den Leim gegangen.
#TimeMachine (a.k.a. externe Festplatte neben dem Rechner) angeblich nicht gut - hahaha, so durchsichtig! 
Aber Cloud 
, na logo, lol!
macOS Paranoia's Time Machine: "I can't backup this file that I've always backed up before but I won't tell you why. Instead I'll just stop the whole backup because my developers were too lazy to write error handling code."
