Hi there, I am getting an error message - the backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/Macintosh.sparsebundle” is already in use, when the Time capsule tries to back up. How do i remedy this?
Thanks,
Bruce.
Thanks for the reply, but hasn't solved my problem. I'm on Mountain Lion. I have to say, I'm not the most computer literate!!!
Any other ideas??
Bruce.
Try rebooting your Time Capsule.
I just had success fixing this issue on my 2012 MBA running Mountain Lion. Here is what I did.
1. Go to finder/utilities and open Airport utility
2. In the Airport disk table unclick the file sharing box and then hit update.
3. I restarted the MBA and then followed steps 1 & 2 again but now enabled file sharing and hit update.
4. Wait a few minutes for everything to connect - go get a coffee!
5. Go to Time capsule icon at the top of your acreen and hit "Back-up now" - finish your coffee if the back-up affects performance (depeending on how long you have had this issue).
Cheers
Thanks Dartiesdad
This has worked perfectly.

Hi Melanie, this wasn't my question so I can't!
Forgive me... DUH! I apparently wasn't paying attention very well!
