Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lifeisabeach" data-source="post: 1895517" data-attributes="member: 38864">Hey, there is something up with Time Machine on Monterey here also. So what I use is Apple's Time Capsule and I have an app called TimeMachineEditor to force backups to be done only once daily.My 2019 iMac, which runs 24/7, showed the last backup was yesterday at 4 in the morning when that should have been this morning. Most likely culprit is incompatibility with TME, so ok, no problem. I ran a manual backup and despite it seemingly finish up just fine, once said and done, it still claimed my last backup was yesterday at 4a. So a short while later, I ran a manual backup again, and it now shows my last backup was that second backup. If I go into the Time Machine UI to browse my backups, BOTH of the manual backups I did are in fact there. The menubar Time Machine item for whatever reason failed to show that the earlier manual backup was successful.This is even more pronounced on my 2020 M1 MacBook Air. It shows the last backup was done 2 days ago. I've run the backup manually a few times now, and even though it told me the backups were successful; even though I can SEE those backups in the Time Capsule; and furthermore I can see I actually HAVE backups in between my manual ones and the "last" reported backup; the Time Machine UI still claims my last backup was 2 days ago. Now, TME may need an update to so the backups get done on my schedule once again, but there's no good reason to believe it's impacting the reported date of the last backup, manually or otherwise.EDIT: I went ahead and uninstalled TME on my MBA; rebooted; and initiated a manual backup. Despite that manual backup very much existing on the Time Capsule, the app stil insists my last one was 2 days ago. So TME very much was not the culprit.</blockquote>
