Time Machine copy failed with error:28

Usually I just say OK when Time Machine can't complete a backup in either my computer or my wife's, and a couple of months later I get the irritating message again.

This time, it keeps returning. I have no idea what to do:

Here's a log:

No such file or directory

Hi, first thing is this...

Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.

Any change?

If not...

Have you looked through Pondini's extensive TM help site?

Can't imaging something not being covered there.

The backup volume is full. If you're using it for anything but Time Machine, move the other data to another drive. Otherwise, you need a bigger drive. There isn't enough space on that one for even a single snapshot of both computers.

I will look further at that site tomorrow.

I first ran Disk Utility from my regular log on (I always just type dis in my spotlight to get it). I saw that permissions were greyed out, but disk verify & repair weren't).

So I booted up to my memory card and ran disk verify and again, repair permissions were greyed out.

You say you're backing up two computers. Regardless of that, the backup volume is full and there isn't even enough room to update the Spotlight index, without which TM can't function.

If you want to do that, you should first back up to another external drive. You should do that anyway. One backup is not enough to be safe.

Then remove the old drive from the list of backup disks in the Time Machine preference pane. Erase it in Disk Utility with the default options. Re-add it in the TM preference pane.

If I recall correctly you do this by going on to TM and using one of the

pull down menus in the top apple menu strip ....

I myself am having problems with TM. I erased the external target disk and

started TM again. However it stops wverytime and refuses to backup ..

Telling me there isn't enough room even though the ext space is much

bigger. It also quotes the size of my HD content about 20% bigger than

finder says 😟 weird.

============

1. Enter the time Machine

2. Scroll back it time for a few generations

3. Select the folder(s) to delete

4. Under the "Action" item (or gear icon), select the delete option you

want.

Just to be certain, is that really "28" or is it "-28"? (I assume it is

a positive error number, as error -28 is

Repair Permissions is not relevant for Time Machine backups. It only

repairs permissions on files installed by the OS X Installer application

(or the OS installation or preinstalled OS, or Software Update). TM

backups don't qualify.

In any case, Time Machine deletes old backups using root privileges so

it doesn't care about permissions on the backup drive.

Something odd is happening here. Given your described usage, you should

not be chewing through 1 TB of backups in less than three months. I've

gone more than a year on a drive with a similar ratio and not filled it

(and I am backing up my downloads, sometimes two or three times as I

move them to other folders).

Has anything major been done to the computer within that timeframe, e.g.

installing a new hard drive, or erasing the main drive and restoring

from backup? If so, that drive is treated as a new one and would require

another full backup, leaving the old one there.

A similar possibility is if Time Machine thought the computer had been

replaced, which would result in a new backup being started, and would

also leave the old backup unable to be deleted automatically.

In this case, you wouldn't be able to directly access the backups prior

to the change using "Enter Time Machine", but could get to them by

holding down the Option key and choosing "Browse Other Backup Disks"

from the Time Machine menu.

> What suggestions do you have for me to resolve this issue.

Which OS X version are you running?

Have a look in system.log (using Console) to see if Time Machine logged

any relevant information when the backup failed. Look for references to

"backupd" (which is the background software which does Time Machine

backups).

That did the trick for me. I did notice before I did this some "ghost" bars in the backup screen for old dates that cannot be accessed. More are seen there now. I guess these are just place holders, I don't know.
