Re: A worrying harddisk problem.

2018-10-29 Thread Anders Holmberg 
Hi!
Ok, thanks for that Tim.
I will do this when the sports has ended here.
I have actually set  an account for the harddisk up instead of using the 
Airports password and that seems to help.
BUt i can of course try your sollution too.
Any thing  is helpfull here.

Hi,

Do this in this order:

Unplug the drive from the USB port of the Airport device, unplug the power to 
the drive if it has a separate power, wait about 20 seconds or so, plug its 
power back in.  Now, unplug the Airport device from its power, and wait another 
20 seconds or so.  While you're waiting, plug the drive back into the USB port 
of the Airport device.  Turn the Airport device back on and wait while it sets 
things up.  After it has all restarted and reconnected, see if you have 
connectivity now.

Later...

I found out that the drive on the network no mor can’t be found.
I have checked the airport settings and it claims file sharing and things like 
tha tis turned on.
So my question is if i can disconnect the harddrive and connect it to my mac 
and do  check that the filesystem is there?
Or is there anything more to try first?
Thanks.

A worrying harddisk problem.

2018-10-29 Thread Anders Holmberg 
Hi!
I have a Hard disk connected to my airport extreme which  i do my time machine 
backups onto.
Now all of a sudden my mac is complaining that it hasn’t been backed up for 12 
days.
I found out that the drive on the network no mor can’t be found.
I have checked the airport settings and it claims file sharing and things like 
tha tis turned on.
So my question is if i can disconnect the harddrive and connect it to my mac 
and do  check that the filesystem is there?
Or is there anything more to try first?
Thanks.
