[QUOTE="infocusinc, post: 1328390, member: 193687"] This just started happening... I don't use or want to use Time machine to do hourly backups..I'll run it as I see fit, mostly every few weeks. In the past I just turned it off in prefs. and everything was fine. No longer and I don't know why. I can no longer turn it off. It just keep bugging me every hour. It tells me it can't find the backup disk which is correct since I don't leave it connected. If I plug it in it runs a backup..ok, not what I wanted but I let it finish and them go and turn TM off again in prefs. If I disconnect the drive ( correctly) in an hour I get that danged popup again. Needless to say this is not what I want to continue to see.... Any suggestions BESIDES keeping the drive plugged in?
