I am still having problems with my Seagate 2TB external disk my and back up regime as I mentioned in my email of 3rd June. My usual method is to have Carbon Copy Cloner run an incremental backup daily. The initial backup runs OK but 24Hrs later the incremental backup does not run with an error message saying "Could not find BU" BU being the name I have assigned to the external disk. The disk then failed to eject when requested saying "cannot eject BU as a program is using it" I presume this was CCC still trying to find the disk. I managed to force eject the disk. I have done all the obvious things, reformatted, run repair disk etc and I noted that when I tried to reformat initially I had a "could not Unmount" message which I overcame by clicking on the Unmount button.
I have tried running a Super Duper backup system and a similar problem occurred. The initial backup ran with no apparent problem but the incremental the next day failed with the message "could not establish ownership of BU" Can anyone spread any light on this problem or point me in a suitable investigative direction?
