I got an interesting error message today after trying to use Time Machine for the first time:
click for full size image
“Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while copying files to the backup volume.”
Thanks Apple. That fucking useful…
Why didn’t the error message just say:
“Sorry, something went wrong.”
How about telling what went wrong and how I can fix it?
The help documents for Time Machine are pretty worthless too. ugh… trying again, I guess.
update: looks like searching ‘/var/log/system.log’ for “backupd” with Console.app will get you the error messages that are causing Time Machine to fail. I just found this string “Nov 11 18:35:25 Macintosh-4 /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[3488]: MDBackupIndexFile returned -1134 for: /Applications/Address Book Exporter.app/Contents/Info.plist, /Volumes/Terra/Backups.backupdb/John Engler’s Computer/2007-11-11-092541.inProgress/3B403D2E-A7F8-40F2-8552-C8FC6E608AF7/Intelligence/Applications/Address Book Exporter.app/Contents/Info.plist” in my log file. So, I’m deleting Address Book Exporter from the Applications folder now. Will try again… thanks to this post in Apple’s Discussion forums for the pointers.

If I haven’t said it before:
“HDTV rocks”
totally. Izzy Stevens on Grey’s Anatomy is so hot in HDTV. Heck, Callie Torres is hot in HD too.
If you don’t have an HDTV yet, get one. Seriously.
