niallmc Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Hey, have just moved my my copy of Retrospect 5.0 from a G4 with OS 9 onto a new G5 running Panther. Problem is - when i try to restore backups from old catalog, it doesn't seem to recognize the catalogs. I have copied accros all catalogs into the new folder and the preferences too, but still no joy! It seems to backup fine, i'm using AIT tapes, but as yet have had no luck restoring. Anyone got any solutions - or do i need to buy an OS X update??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonaldL Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Go to Configure>Backup Sets and forget one of the backup sets. Then readd it by clicking on More and Open and selecting the catalog file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niallmc Posted April 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Hey - unfortunately that didnt work. I think the problem lies elsewhere. In the backup catalogs folder - under the 'kind' it is labelling them as 'Unix Executable Files' as opposed to backup set catalog. Any ideas how i can change this? Have tried dragging them onto Retrospect logo inDock and using the Get Info to change what application they open with, but whenever i do - the retrospect logo is greyed out and cannot choose it as an option!

natew Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Hi Are you using Retrospect 5.0.238? What version of OSX do you have? Are you able to run a catalog rebuild from the tapes? Thanks Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
