[QUOTE="poppi, post: 1791618, member: 214058"] I recently had to update my operating system from 10.6.8 to 10.11 El Capitan. Since then I have had periodic problems with Time Machine backups. When trying to make the hourly backups I get a message " Backup failed. Time Machine couldn't backup to G Drive 2. Unable to complete the backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder". My backups have always gone to an external hard drive and I never had a problem before the S/W update. Also, it has not been a total failure - I had some backups along the way with the latest a week ago. Suggestions will be appreciated poppi [/QUOTE]
