Time Machine Error
« on: March 21, 2009, 05:09:04 AM »
   

I am using LS-CH640L firmware 1.07 and Mac OS X 10.5.6.

 

I tried to setup the LS as the time machine drive.  I follow the instruction and verified the  sparebundle file has been created.

 

But when I click Time Machine -> Change Disk -> select the drive, error OSStatus error -6602 result after I entered the default user admin and password.  I tried both configured the with airport and Ethernet MAC addresses but the same failure.

 

Your help is highly appreciated.

   Have you found a solution to this? We bought linkstation for our company for backing up but we see this problem...

I have been having the same problem when trying the time machine in my mac. It says error 6602. 

I tried several things, it says that I don't have any unit in need of updates.

I definitely can't use the time machine with my LS-CH1TR.

There is must to be a solution for this issue.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to help. sparsebundle seems to get created from NAS web configurator. I even tried different paths for it.

I don't give guests write privileges (since this is in corporate network). Might that be the problem?

 

Edited later on:

Actually, when I changed the directory of which the Time Machine is stored on the Buffalo device it seemed to help. I did this because I saw that in Preferences - Time Machine had another directory for timemachine backups for some strange reason.
