WD My Cloud Time Machine fails “*.sparsebundle is already in use”

I have been using a WD My Cloud NAS for many years and have had very few problems with it apart from one where the time machine backup fails and when I try to set the time machine up again it always fails. There is a fix so I thought I would share it with any other WD My Cloud users who experiwnce the same issue.

Login to the WD My Cloud web interface. This is done by entering the following url into your browser address bar

Windows: http://wdmycloud/
macOS: http://wdmycloud.local
If you have changed the name of your WD My Cloud device then replace wdmycloud with the name of your device

Now enter your username and password and select Login

Select Settings

In the Mac Backups section click on the ON/OFF button so that it is turned OFF

Now click on the account button located top right

Select Reboot from the dropdown menu

You will now have to wait 5 minutes or so whilst your NAS reboots and initialises. Once complete you will need to open the web interface again

Now open your System Settings and select Time Machine

Now click on Select Backup Disk…

Choose your WD My Cloud NAS and then select Use Disk

Enter the Username and Password for your NAS and then select Connect

You should now see a notification saying it is connecting

Once connected you should see your WD My Cloud is ready to start backing up again

Pock – Display macOS Dock in TouchBar

Pock is an app that allows you to display your macOS dock in the touchbar on your Apple laptop.

For myself this is great as I usually hide the dock in order to keep a tidy looking desktop.
Pock offers fully functional badge support so you will never miss any notification.

There is a handy ESC button so you don’t have to hide Pock to access the system one.
You can use preferences to set Pock to launch at login.
⌥+⌘+P: Will set Pock as the first item in your Control Strip (if any other apps, like iTunes or Spotify replace it). This is Global.
