![]() ![]() Then it took about an hour for them to reinstall the system. I completed the time machine backup in the morning, brought it to the store in the afternoon and showed it to one of the staffs to confirm that I had the backup completed. Then I did it with an old disk I had, which seemed completely fine at that time because I was told that time machine can be run on any disk that functions normally. ![]() Visited a local apple store, told me to back up with time machine before handing the laptop to them for a repair. Has anyone had better and more reliable experience with APFS Encrypted volumes?Īfter using my MacBook Air 2020 for about one and half month, it’s unable to turn into sleep mode everytime I close it - it just turns off automatically. Thankfully, not much data has been lost forever, but, it makes it tough to trust APFS Encryption.ġ) Had a new HD inserted in my MacPro (2019)Ģ) Drive was formatted with GUID partition mapģ) Initial APFS container created (no encryption)Ĥ) Once Container existed, as well as initial whole-disk-sized APFS volume, I clicked on the Container and "+" to create a new container.ĥ) Chose APFS Encryption as the FS, generated a passphrase with 1Password, and am certain it's accurate.Ħ) Volume mounted just fine, was able to read/write data to it no problem Sadly, this is 100% repeatable, and I've had it happen a few times. I excluded that volume from TimeMachine backups to ensure that there weren't unencrypted copies of the data floating about anywhere (even though my TM volume is encrypted (HFS+, not APFS)). I've now lost some data permanently, which is a bit frustrating. If I try again, either with the same passphrase, or, trying something like my login password, the UI will go away, but, the volume does not mount.Ĭould not mount “Data”. I'm 100% certain of the passphase I used, but, after entering it the UI "shakes" to indicate the passphrase was wrong. ![]() When I reboot, after looking in I'm prompted for the password for the volume. The problem I've encountered is that whenever I use Disk Utility to create an APFS encrypted volume within a container, it works, but only until I reboot. I've not seen this one covered elsewhere, and whilst I've already tried the Feedback Assistant to get it to Apple, I'm not sure if it's being picked up or looked at there. ![]()
