If you read Mr. McAllister's post, he makes it clear that the reason Time Machine keeps fussing is that it is configured to run (ie, it is ENABLED) but has never been told what drive to back up to. So... you have a "please back me up automatically" setting in place but have never given it permission to write to anything! Each time it sees an eligible drive, it's like a little puppy: "can I write here? how about now? this drive?" Turn Time Machine off, already, and then live in blissful, un-backed-up, no-nag freedom. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
