[QUOTE="tltanner39, post: 1840538, member: 403817"] Well, I thought all was well, maybe not. It backed up several times yesterday, and once at 6:24 AM this morning. When I got home from work this afternoon, there was a "backup fail" message again. It says. Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to "Seagate Backup Plus Drive" Two of the disks to back up have the same name. Rename one of the disks named "Macintosh HD". Last successful backup: Today , 6:24 AM The drives are listed as: Macintosh HD Macintosh HD - Data This is the same thing it did before. It backed up for ten days successfully after installing Catalina, then started the backup fail. One other thing, and I don't know if it is related or not, and it has been ocurring for a long time. I go through periods where the computer says, "Backup not ejected properly". Sometimes the backup has worked properly even with this message occuring. Then it quits saying this for a time. I just never know. Any thoughts? Thanks Tom [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I'll try another restart and see what happens. [/QUOTE]
