disk warrior and time machine
I recently got this message on my MacBook Air
macOS can't repair the disk "MacAirTimeMachine".
You can still open or copy files on the disk, but you can't save changes to files
on the disk. Back up the disk and reformat it as soon as you can.
So I tried disk warrior and received this message
Directory must be rebuilt from : Recovery disk because of macOs access security restrictions.
Here is info about my machine
macOS Big Sur
Version 11.7.1
MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2013)
Processor 1.7 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i7
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Questions:
How do I get a recovery disk- or where do I get a recovery disk.
Failing that, can I copy the files from the time machine disk to another disk and still have time machine be able to access them. Or should I just reformat the drive.
Time machine is one partition on an ssd drive - can I just reformat that partition? The other two partitions are working fine - I was able to rebuild the directories on those partitions.
All help gratefully accepted.

Folks, I often find something that most all of you already know, but just in case.
I have a laptop with the lid closed and view through an Apple Monitor. ?I use Apple’s watch and what is suppose to happen is when I access the monitor the Watch is suppose to open the OS on the laptop.?
It hasn’t work for years, if I use the trackpad to awaken the monitor it never opens and I always have to type the password.
If I use the keyboard by hitting the spacebar it might work one time out ot ten.
By accident I found if I hit the spacebar twice it ALWAYS opens and ready to use. ?I guess I should have learned this long ago, maybe none of you have a watch opens your system, maybe I’m a choir of one but just in case I thought I would pass along.
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving and are looking forward to Apple under your tree this Christmas.

Thought you might like to reflect on this, with so many of the Tech companies having the wheels come off their stock valuations, note as of close 11-18-22 Apple is down 6.04%, a home run compared to others in the industry.? I also wanted to share that Buffett has purchased another 3.9 million shares and he says his holding of Apple is FOREVER.
Why Everything in Tech Seems to Be Collapsing at Once
The industry is having a midlife crisis.
November 17, 2022 This is Work in Progress, a newsletter by Derek Thompson about work, technology, and how to solve some of America’s biggest problems.
The tech industry seems to be in a recession. Although overall unemployment is still very low, just about every major tech company—including Amazon, Meta, Snap, Stripe, Coinbase, , Robinhood, and Intel—has announced double-digit percentage-point layoffs in the past few months. The stock valuations for many of these companies have fallen more than 50 percent in the past year.

I don’t think I have your problem, but for the last few weeks I’ve been having a problem with iCloud updating on different machines.
For example, I’ll update a document at home and the next day when I go into my office it hasn’t been updated in my iCloud folder. I used to be able to force an update by creating an empty folder on a non-updated machine, but that doesn’t work any more. It will eventually update, but there’s seemingly no way to predict when.
This has driven me back to DropBox for stuff I need to work on in several places. DropBox works like magic.

Anyone else having issues with files on iCloud?
It wasn’t long ago I wrote to say my folders inside iCloud had disappeared but the files appeared on my desktop folder. Great, this is easier.
This morning my current files were not updated, my latest file which was yesterday’s date was not there, rather the latest file was 10-27-22, however even those were incorrect, my changes that had gone back to Sept. were not appearing.
Anyone know what’s going on with iCloud? Does Apple have a known problem they are working on?
I would think I’m not the only one experiencing this?
Thanks a bunch.

I think the solution to your calendar problem may be found in your System Preferences. Look at the Language and Region Settings/General Tab/Calendar and select Gregorian. Hope that does the trick!

Anyone with correct Mac OS X calendar prefs knowledge…
Anyone with correct Mac OS X calendar prefs knowledge… …please help!
The click-spacer "contact ring” on the bottom of my older-version Mac mouse broke, and I just only have the top view from the mouse prefs to incl. as an attachment for you to determine which version I’m using.
I inadvertently changed my calendar?display to Islamic from our common Julian(?) display. ?Trying to use the broken mouse may have selected the Islamic display.
Now though, I need to?change the calendar?display back to Julian! ?Or I got borked/hacked by some not-so-friendly nearby person - but no one admits knowing arabic [AIR-ah-bik], and yet they continued to correct my pronunciation with [ah-RAH-bik]).
PLEASE HELP !! ? -russ preston

Re: Dropbox files on M1 Macs
I don’t know that it is Dropbox, but do you have those apps working on the new machine? Older apps that don’t have 64 bit code will not work on newer OS’s that don’t have 32-bit code. Good luck with your sleuthing. Jonathan On Oct 19, 2022, at 12:14 PM, Harry Jacobson-Beyer <hejb44@...> wrote:
