I am not certain if making one of the backups, or accessing them remotely through time machine was the cause, but I do know that the sparsebundle was corrupted by remotely accessing the backup. I suspect it became corrupted when I mounted the remote drive with Time Machine in order to try and retrieve an old file from a remote site. I was unable to repair the image file using DiskWarrior and was forced to reformat my Time Capsule. A year's worth of backups went down the drain. It was not worth the trouble to do these backups remotely. Furthermore, the backups are so painfully slow as to be impractical, not to mention the risk of corruption and loss of data.

This works fine from outside the network, but not from inside, as it does not detect the disc location automatically as it was before, and now every time I want to use the time machine I have to select manually the location of the disc. Therefore I wonder if you could please let me have the command line to undo the instruction to the previous status. Many thanks!!

When I start the backup, the remote Time Capsule is mounted, but now it appears to be stuck at "Making Backup Disk Available". It has been an hour and a-half since Time Machine started and it is still trying to make the disk available. Has anybody else had this problem? Any ideas for a solution?
