10.5: Reconnect Time Machine backup after drive swap
Cannot get this to work - In the terminal, running as admin on my system (my usual account isn't), I get either:
[Errno 13] Permission denied: '../2010-03-05-163914/Volumename'
so I thought, add SUDO before the xattr call, and then I got this: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '../2010-03-05-163914/Volumename'
Any ideas, anyone? Terminal isn't my thing...

When doing which step on the way, exactly? ---

Sorry - it would (of course) be the "critical step":
Next, and this is the critical step, overwrite the UUID with the UUID you have copied from Disk Utility above (the UUID is represented by the X's in this example):

Had you followed all the steps before that?
This will only work in the proper sequence, particularly after disabling ACLs on the backup drive. If ACLs are still in effect, you will not be able to set the UUID; The error messages would be consistent with that. Important: If you should have disabled ACLs for your working volume instead by mistake (you should have disabled them for the backup volume!), you should re-enable them for the working volume again, following the step indicated at the end of the instructions. Maybe that's been the mistake. ---

I sent you the mail and went to the gym, and a little bell went off on the treadmill. Well…bell, flashing light, klaxon…permissions. I activated the root account, did the command which worked, deactivated root and set the system off to backup (and all your other steps as well, of course, including ACLs). Time Machine runs at a higher level than my usual account or the admin account, so root made sense.
