The time of day or night is not the issue, it is that it will only back up to iCloud automatically once in any 24-hour period. I've never seen any indication on the screen that the backup is taking place, though admittedly most of the time It happens overnight while I am sleeping.
If you are backing up daily, then the Bakup shouldn't take too long anyway, so it usually isn't an issue. -- Marcy weinberg Junior Partner Fedora Outlier, LLC Top down, BETTER THAN EXCELLENT ™ consulting, teaching and support http://www.fedoraoutlier.com 888-958-6979 ext.3801 [email protected] On Apr 2, 2013, at 1:47 PM, "Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D." <[email protected]> wrote: > Must this be overnight local time, or if connected to power and locked, will > it work during daytime hours? > > Is there an indication on the screen it is backing up so as to not disconnect > power and unlock in the middle of a back-up, regardless of time this is > happening? > > Thanks.
