My Time Machine backups have been flawless for 2 years since I upgraded to Leopard. I just plug in my external drive and in a minute or so, I see a little icon pop up, then the drive's status light blinks for maybe 5-8 minutes, then it stops blinking and I can close the application. However, tonight when I plugged in my external drive for a backup, no icon popped up but the drive's status light almost immediately started blinking. When I checked Time Machine, it said the "Time Machine Backup Disk Can't Be Found." The status box says the backup is "Delayed" and the next backup will be "When the disk is connected."
Any idea what's going on? The external drive's status light continues to blink like it does when it's backing up. Please help... I can't afford to lose any of my data. Thank you in advance.
