[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1945887, member: 396914"] So what could be happening is that during the night, as the machine is idle, that it does routine maintenance functions and maybe if TM triggers during the maintenance then one or more files are not available for backup either because they are being held open by the maintenance, or have been deleted during the maintenance and TM expected them to be there for the backup. So, as you say, if the message is there in the morning, run T2M2 with 8 hours, or use Mints to get 8 hours of TM log entries and look for the name of the missing file/folder. [/QUOTE]
