[QUOTE="davidmc, post: 942936, member: 131345"] No errors. Actually, much as I like solving problems, I gave up and started afresh. As TM is not my serious archiving tool - more of a panic button - I was prepared to delete my backups and start again. And now it works. Here's the thing: my external drive shows a folder "backups.backupdb" whereas before it showed a disc image (a sparsebundle with MAC address) which is what I thought it should. But now it works. Can anyone explain this to me? [/QUOTE]
