  1. When I go to TimeMachine it does not show my NAS. I followed all the steps and went over it a few times. Can you let me know what I did wrong or what else I need to do?
  2. What about the part when you have to do a full system restore using Time Machine backup on QNAP? Any tutorial on that?
  3. Is there any way to set individual quota's? Example, we have 20 computers at our office, and wan't every each of them to have maximum 200GB backup space..
  4. It does not work for me.

    When I enter the username and Password, it returns an error (OSStatus error 2.)
    Saing that TimeMachine could not access the backup disk "TMBackup"

    Any information about this?
  5. so how do you restore the backup
  6. thank you!
  7. great video
