Q: Is 15 hours to backup 6 of 12G fresh install a "long time"?
I'm having trouble getting my TimeMachine backup to be recognized by Migrate. I've done three new backups over the past couple of days each time changing the partition map and format (read my related post here).
Then again, I'm wondering if I'm even making a complete backup each time. I turned "Computer Sleep" off (Energy Saver > Computer Sleep --> Never) and left screen sleep the same while connected to power. Then I started the latest backup. That was 0530h this AM when I left for work. Now it's 2030h and I'm seeing "Backing up 6G of 12G" in the TimeMachine file ribbon icon popup. 15 hours isn't enough to make a 12G TimeMachine backup?
