Iomega EZ Media and Backup Center User Guide
Backing up to and Restoring from Your Device
Backing up Macs with Time Machine
Time Machine is a backup utility for Mac computers, and is included in Mac OSX 10.5 or later. It can
back up and restore all files on Mac computers. Enable Time Machine on your Iomega EZ Media &
Backup Center to allow Mac computers to back up to it. When you enable Time Machine, you choose
a destination Share on the Iomega EZ where the backups are to be stored. Any Mac computers
running the Iomega Storage Manager will automatically have backup folders created within that
specified Share.
Enabling Time Machine Support
1. On the Time Machine page, click the switch on.
2. Click the Settings link and in the Time Machine settings dialog, select a destination Share from
the Folder drop-down menu for the Time Machine backup folders.
3. Click Apply.
Turning on Time Machine also turns on Apple file sharing.
Changing the Time Machine Destination Share
You can change the Time Machine backup destination Share by clicking Settings and selecting a
different Share in the pop-up window. If you have been using Time Machine to back up your
computer to the Iomega EZ , be sure to copy all your existing backup folders from your original
destination Share to the new destination Share before changing the destination Share. If you do not
copy your existing backups, they will be lost.
Manually Creating Backup Folders for Macs
You can create backup folders for any Macs that are not running Iomega Storage Manager by clicking
Add a Time Machine backup folder above the Time Machine table. In the dialog box that
displays, enter the Apple Network Hostname and Ethernet ID of the Mac computer you are adding
and click Apply. Be sure you are entering the exact hostname and ethernet ID from your Mac. Do not
change capitalization, add spaces, or add any non-alphanumeric characters. The Mac is added to the
Time Machine table, and a backup folder is created for it in the Time Machine Share.
Starting a Time Machine Backup
To start a backup, open Time Machine on your Mac, and select your Iomega EZ as the target.
Deleting Backup Shares for Macs
You can delete any Mac backup Shares. Click next to the Mac in the Time Machine table to
delete that Mac's folder.
