Hi Peta,
Use the Apple help line only as a last resort. The last time I use
the service I was charged and it wasn't cheap.

Thank you all so very much for your efforts to help me with my missing
iPhoto and my icon dropping from the dock (two problems).
This problem was caused by, in some mysterious unknown way, the iPhoto
having placed intself into the wrong directory. Now, a happy ending,
I am reunited with
Hi Peta,
You mentioned in one email how important your photos are to you, it
would be devastating to loose all your photos.
I work with my iPhotos a lot, nearly every day - this is my passion
- so if I lost my thousands and thousands of photos it would be a
disaster for me.
Make sure
Thanks for this Ronni
Yes, I had plugged in my Maxtor external hard drive (which I had been
using with my Toshiba notebook and which was set to automatically
back up every 24 hours) when I bought my Apple earlier this year. I
unplugged the Maxtor a while ago because I don't think it was

Had your problem with iPhoto on three machines using Apple Time Capsule and
WD My Book (both 500GB). No problems with a Unitek SATA HDD Docking Station
and Superduper, about $65 plus whatever size HD you use.

Hi Peta,
I highly recommend Western Digital External Firewire Drives. The SATA
3.5 1TB (as long as you have a Firewire 800 port) or the Western
Digital 3.5 IDE 7200rpm Drives (Firewire 400 port) in a Sarotech
HardBox enclosures.
I've never had any of my drives fail.

Hello People,
When Peta asked for advice about Backup Drives, it prompted me to send
some information on my new Backup Storage setup.
I purchased (through Daniel of MacWizardry), and have been using the
2nd Generation DROBO-Storage Robot for over a month now and I'm
thoroughly impressed,
I agree this is a great product BUT make sure you update the firmware
before you format the drives as we had a few minor issues.
Cheers
Duncan

Is anyone aware of software to lock and prevent the contents of a
flash drive being seen? I have used lockngo with Windows but it
does not work with MAC OS.

That's interesting Duncan.
I know I updated the Firmware without any problems at all. I think if
I remember Drobo Dashboard asked me to, not sure though?
What issues did you experience?
Was it to do with your Firewall blocking the web-based firmware update?
Or did it fail to install?

Hi Barry,
One really easy way is just to use an encrypted disc image - all anyone can
see is the image file - you just double click it to mount and it asks you
for the password. No password, no mount.
Just use Disk utility to create it.

Hi Barry,
There is a Corsair Flash Padlock. http://www.corsair.com/_datasheets/CMFUSBPADLOCK-4GB.pdf

need to buy another flashdrive.
Creating an Encrypted Disk Image on the FlashDrive as Neil has
suggested is good.

Thanks Neil
I was aware of tis method. however. as I understand it this requires
setting up a new blank image. I was hoping not to have to copy all
the information I have on the flash drive to a somewhere and then copy
it back to an encrypted image.

Hi WAMUGers
For several weeks I have been unable to perform a Time Machine backup. It
starts off and then later I discover it has been unable to backup. I get
error messages such as
there was an error copying
Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while copying files to the
backup volume.
Thanks for that Ronni.
Do you know if these are readily available and if they are
horrendously expensive. They look as if they could solve my problem.
At the moment I have considerable data duplicated onto two flash
drives, one is encrypted for when I need to use it with MAC OS and the
Hi Rod,
Not sure if this helps but make sure you have verified the
permissions on the source drive with 'Disc Utilities'. And that you
have ownership on all the enclosed files that are being backed up.

Well, that's one way of doing it.
Another way is to create a blank disc image (or more than one if you want to
split the info into parts) on your mac, then copy the info from the flash
drive to the disc image(s) on the mac. Then erase the flash drive before
copying the disc images across.

Hi Ronni and Eugene
I just found this:
In order to find the corrupted files (Disk Verify in Disk Utility did
not detect the corrupted files) go to the CONSOLE program, them click
system.log. In the finder box for Console, type backupd to narrow the
log to messages associated with backup. Look for
No problem with updating the firmware but the firmware out of the box
gave us issues with all red warning lights coming on all the drives
and therefore no data or protection. Once we had updated the firmware
for both the drobo and the drobo share we have had no problems at all
and love it
Thanks Duncan,
I now remember also having all the red warning lights, a bit scary.
Drobo certainly lets you know when he is not happy ;-)
