[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1791435, member: 204485"] I can say this has happened to me twice but not after the upgrade to High Sierra despite the format change to APFS with the upgrade. In both occasions I simply used Disk Utility to erase the old backup HDD, erased the old destination name in TM Preferences and then re selected it and performed a brand new TM backup. Because I now use a bootable clone backup as well I regularly erase my TM backup at each new macOS upgrade and have not had a problem since. Personally I cannot see the point of having backups of data from previous operating systems but that's just me. [/QUOTE]
