[QUOTE="gpc, post: 673040, member: 52552"] Ah, good idea. But no, that hasn't worked. For the Time Machine drive, the buttons for Verify or Repair Disk Permissions are grayed out. I tried Verify Disk and Repair Disk, which were available, and after about 15 minutes it tells me the volume "appears to be OK." I'll try verifying the permissions of the main drive next, altho I don't think that's what you meant... [/QUOTE]
