[QUOTE="markdgrant, post: 1791417, member: 361733"] Forced to update to High Sierra, Time Capsule problems: Mid 2010 MacBook High Sierra OSX 10.13.4 Airport router/Time Capsule 2TB WHAT IS WRONG • "Preparing backup" stuck for 14 hours, tried again for another 14 hours • Cannot access any backups in Time Machine, all dates stuck on "Waiting" • Verifying backup stuck, progress bar solid blue from start This all happened after upgrade to High Sierra. Last successful TM backup was before updating. No changes to computer except deleting a lot of work files. WHAT I HAVE DONE • Backup volume is excluded from Sophos Home anti-virus as well as Spotlight • Time Machine .plist deleted from Preferences • Re-set PRAM • Tried to trash "Backups.backupd" but inside backup folder is just a disk image, nothing else. (Also had to connect manually, if that's anything). • Can't remove "inProgress" file because again, only disk image • Rebooted with Time Capsule connected and unconnected • Unplugged/plugged Time Capsule [/QUOTE]
