Time Machine was working fine with my Iomega Home Network Storage Drive before I upgraded my MacBook Pro to Mountain Lion.
Now it fails to back up saying that it cannot find the Drive.
Has anyone else had similar problems and found a solution.
Thanks
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.7)
How is it on the network? Like what is it plugged in to?
The NAS drive is connected to my WiFi Router by Ethernet cable. My MacBook Pro is connecting by WiFi.
See if it shows up in the recovery partition (command R while booting)
Yes, it shows up as a recovery disk when I reboot with Control R and it shows in Finder as a Time Machine drive.
Hi,
I had a similar issue with Time Machine after upgrading my iMac (where the Time Machine HDD is connected and shared from) to Mountain Lion. This was fixed by following the instruction from this site: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4700. It seems that Mountain Lion introduced a more secure network protocol which may not be supported (yet) by the network drive.
Hope this helps.
BR,

Thanks for the suggestion Hindra, but it didn't fix my problem. As I said everything was working with Time Machine with the Lion OS and the trouble only started when I upgraded to Mountain Lion. This fix apparently applied to OS X 10.7 and OS X 10.8.
I am hoping that Iomega will come up with an upgrade to their firmware or software to solve it.

I think the only thing you've not tried from here is deselecting and reselecting the drive http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11173?viewlocale=en_US
I have done this (de-selecting and re-selecting the drive) many times with no change. I can see the drive and Time Machine folder when I use Finder.
Since upgrading to Mountain Lion my MacBook Pro Time Machine will not work with my Iomega Home Network Storage Drive
