[QUOTE="gpc, post: 674133, member: 52552"] Here you go: Jun 13 19:08:30 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[2174]: Waiting for index to be ready (915 > 0) Jun 13 19:09:00 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[2174]: Waiting for index to be ready (915 > 0) Jun 13 19:09:30 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[2174]: Waiting for index to be ready (915 > 0) Jun 13 19:10:00 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[2174]: Waiting for index to be ready (915 > 0) Jun 13 19:10:30 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[2174]: Waiting for index to be ready (915 > 0) Jun 13 19:10:47 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[2174]: Copied 0 files (0 bytes) from volume Graham's Disk. Jun 13 19:10:53 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[2174]: Backup canceled. There are hundreds of lines of the "waiting," every 30 seconds going to back to whenever I last tried turning on TM. 19:10:47 must be when I turned it off again a short while ago. And here is what goes into the log when I turn it on and manually start a backup: Jun 13 19:26:07 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[3587]: Backup requested by user Jun 13 19:26:07 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[3587]: Starting standard backup Jun 13 19:26:07 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[3587]: Backing up to: /Volumes/Time Machine Pakari-1/Backups.backupdb Jun 13 19:26:08 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[3587]: Event store UUIDs don't match for volume: Graham's Disk Jun 13 19:26:08 Pakari /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[3587]: Node requires deep traversal:/ reason:kFSEDBEventFlagMustScanSubDirs|kFSEDBEventFlagReasonEventDBUntrustable| "Time Machine Pakari-1" is the backup drive's name. It has been chattering away at a lowish level of activity for about 8 minutes now, with no new entries in the log (I've hit "reload"). Still "preparing..." [/QUOTE]
