Are you logging on to the mac mini as the user that the time machine backups is 
being run as or simply is your log in account an administrator.

Hi,

You go into System Prefs, Time Machine and uncheck the Automatically Backup 
checkbox, close System Prefs, then re-open and check it again.  The close is 
required to properly apply changes.

Hi,

Being "Read Only" should not be an issue.  In fact, I expect that the backup 
bundle is all read only as you are not supposed to modify its contents.  When 
you find the file you wish to recover, use the Window Chooser to get to the 
time Machine controls, choose the recover date then restore the file.  Once it 
is recovered and in your current file structure, it should be read/write.  If 
not, you can Get Info on the file and change its permissions.

Hi everyone,

I’ve got a late 2014 Mac mini running the latest version of Mojave. I’ve got 
time machine backing up to a network drive, and it seems to be backing up OK, 
however it won’t let me restore a file I need. When I go to the list of files, 
I keep getting “no permission to read” announced with each one. I’m guessing 
this means that for some reason I have read-only access so can’t bring the file 
back? Has anyone experienced this problem, and if so what can I do about it?

Many thanks,

Re: Problems Restoring A File Using Time Machine

2018-12-21 Thread Pete De Vasto 
Success! I finally did get my file back, and it was kind of interesting. 
Unchecking, then re-checking the Backup automatically box seemed to  do it. 
Interesting part was that even after restarting Time Machine, I would always 
get the message “no permission to read”, no matter what file I was on, so I 
thought I wasn’t going to be able to do the restore. However, pulling down the 
context menu and selecting restore file to… worked. Only confusing part was how 
to tell TM I wanted it exactly in the same place it was before I deleted it. 
The file would up going into a sub-folder of the one I wanted. I hope that 
makes sense. Anyway, thank you for the help!

Re: Problems Restoring A File Using Time Machine

2018-12-21 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries 
Hi,

Being "Read Only" should not be an issue.  In fact, I expect that the backup 
bundle is all read only as you are not supposed to modify its contents.  When 
you find the file you wish to recover, use the Window Chooser to get to the 
time Machine controls, choose the recover date then restore the file.  Once it 
is recovered and in your current file structure, it should be read/write.  If 
not, you can Get Info on the file and change its permissions.

That’s exactly what I’m doing. I really don’t know any other way.

Thanks, Tim,
Pete

Re: Problems Restoring A File Using Time Machine

2018-12-21 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries 
Hi,

What process are you using to recover the file?  You should be entering Time 
Machine from the time Machine Extras Menu in order to recover Time Machine 
backup data.

Later...

Hi everyone,

I’ve got a late 2014 Mac mini running the latest version of Mojave. I’ve got 
time machine backing up to a network drive, and it seems to be backing up OK, 
however it won’t let me restore a file I need. When I go to the list of files, 
I keep getting “no permission to read” announced with each one. I’m guessing 
this means that for some reason I have read-only access so can’t bring the file 
back? Has anyone experienced this problem, and if so what can I do about it?

Many thanks,
Pete De Vasto
