Tinkertool for 10.1112/15/2023 In this case you have to wait until there is at least one backup session available. Time Machine has been enabled only recently, but the very first backup has not been completed yet.In this particular case, Time Machine indeed cannot be accessed at all and TinkerTool System has to wait until the backup system becomes operational again. There can also be the warning message Time Machine is not ready at the moment. Although it is usually safe to use other Time Machine features during this phase, we don’t recommend doing so, because the two simultaneously running operations could slow down each other, causing significant performance problems. In this case, the warning message A backup or other Time Machine operation is currently running. ![]() TinkerTool System automatically tries to determine if a backup operation is currently in progress. You should only disconnect if no Time Machine operations are currently running. To disconnect later, click the button Eject network disk. You cannot use any of the Time Machine features until the connection is made. If your Time Machine destination is network based, click the button Connect to network disk to let macOS connect to your backup. However, from within TinkerTool System you cannot change which destination device Time Machine currently considers the active one. In most cases, TinkerTool System will detect this automatically after a short time. If you replace Time Machine devices while TinkerTool System is running, you can click the button Rescan at the right side of the pane to ensure that the application learns about the possibly changed active device immediately. The name of the destination is shown at the left bottom of the Time Machine pane ( Active Time Machine disk). TinkerTool System automatically detects your configuration and always works on the Time Machine destination that is currently defined by macOS to be the “active” one. In addition to disk drives, destination devices can be servers in the network (such as Time Capsule), a Mac running Time Machine file sharing (available in old versions of macOS Server and in standard versions of macOS as of version 10.13), or a NAS with Time Machine support. Time Machine can be configured to work with multiple destination devices at the same time. General Notes when Working with the Time Machine Pane ![]() if a single byte in a file X has changed, the entire file X will be copied during the next Time Machine backup run. Differences are handled at the file level, i.e. Although the entire system can be restored for each point in time for which a backup is available, Time Machine technically only stores the differences between any two given consecutive backup operations (incremental backup). “Nearly” means that Time Machine automatically omits files which are considered unimportant or which can be recreated, like log files, the Trash, caches, the Spotlight search index, etc. Each backup set contains a nearly complete snapshot of the contents of all disks for which Time Machine has been activated. ![]() Outdated file sets are automatically removed, keeping hourly backups for the last day, daily backups for the last week, and monthly backups until the destination device is full. Backups are created silently in the background each hour. ![]() Time Machine is the name of Apple’s technology which automatically creates backup copies of your computer’s hard drives.
