[QUOTE="Shaw, post: 533414, member: 42119"] Hi, I've a mac laptop, and therefore don't always have my external hard-drive plugged in. What I'd like to do is simply switch on my computer and do a time machine backup from time to time. It seems however that because the rate of daily backups is every hour, I have to wait 60 minutes until the backup is scheduled to happen routinely. Surely there's an override for a manual backup, but I can't seem to find it. Time machine looks and works otherwise very nicely, though unless you've a desktop mac I'd have thought that this would be an issue for a lot of users. Any suggestions? Cheers, Andrew [/QUOTE]
