[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1895485, member: 83420"] [USER=396888]@jks[/USER] FWIW, here's my pennyworth. Firstly, I assume you formatted the Time Machine External Hard Drive (EHD) APFS? That must be pretty certain as it's not supposed to work with anything else. My second thought was that the TM backup was presumably used for macOS 11 Big Sur (BS) or whatever you had before Monterey beta, then continued to be used with Monterey beta and now Monterey proper - and if that is so and if you did not reformat between each upgrade, then it doesn't surprise me that the BU failed. My advice is to wipe the TM BU and reformat it APFS and start a new backup. Ian [/QUOTE]
