Time Machine restore not working (but QE/CI is working!)

Casemon · #1 01-12-2008, 11:36 PM

Time Machine restore doesn't work, though Time Machine backup seems to be working...

TimeMachine.app runs, then Finder crashes and TimeMachine exits. Here is the console output:
1/12/08 4:45:43 PM com.apple.launchd[104] ([0x0-0x1a01a].com.apple.finder[172]) Exited abnormally: Segmentation fault

I'm not sure why restore doesn't work, i have full QE/CI working thanks to Zephyroth's nvidia driver installer.

Anyone else seeing this? Any ideas on how to fix it?

* Asus a8n-e (no SLI)
* Athlon64 3000+
* 3x512 DDR 333Mhz
* Asus GeForce 7300GS 256Mb PCI-E 16x
* Both PATA or SATA (working)
* Onboard sound. Using Rev1, I think LineOut works, but I only have connection for Optical / Digital Out and that is NOT working (yet?)

Time machine doesn't work for me either, even after the time machine patch

That worked for me!

As of this minute I actually have a perfectly working copy of 10.5.2! I "Marvinized" GarageBand a few minutes ago and the last piece was Time Machine. Thanks!

Nice

Thanks, but my problem is if I try and load the time machine program, a finder window opens, but I don't see the time machine program running. I have it working and backing up just fine, I just cant see the program to restore it. The link posted did not fix my problem, I'm running 10.5.1. Thanks for your help.

I think that usually indicates a problem with your graphics card not (having QE/CI fully supported?) - doesn't it?

I got time machine running, the trick is to open finder and click a couple of times on today,yesterday and such down the bottom of the list, then timemachine should start working. I also applied the timemachine patch.

hope this gets it working for everyone
