[QUOTE="Captain Slocum, post: 1628435, member: 214122"] I'm using Yosemite. After changing to a time capsule for wireless backups, Time Machine hangs at the Preparing Backup stage. When I go to look at the Backups.backupd file I used to have with my old attached hard drive to trash the .inProgress file, I now have instead a sparse bundle folder called bands which contains literally thousands of files called things like 1a50d up to eb48 and also files com.apple.TimeMachine.MachineID.bckup, com.apple.TimeMachine.MachineID.plist, com.apple.TimeMachine.Results.plist, Info.bckup, token, Info.plist. So I can't even do manual restore anymore. I have searched the internet but cannot find any mention of this. Any idea what's going on here? [/QUOTE]
