You can't specify that, unfortunately. You could opt for a disk cloner like Super Duper and set such a schedule, but Time Machine simply runs in background. Of course, if you are using an external drive, you can just plug it in once a week for the backups. Take Care John D. Panarese Dire

Well, when you get down to it, it's still a bolt on screen reader developed by a third party. I think this was a great move on the part of GW Micro, but I really don't see how this will set Windows apart from what Apple has done. You still have to buy Office. Take Care John D. Panarese
