Time Machine just forgot about my iPhoto Library!!
today I exchanged my MacBook Pro's built-in 320GB hard disk with a 500GB one. As a preparation, I had bought a brand new 1.5TB disk for backup yesterday, and started a fresh TM backup on that disk. Today I then installed Snow Leopard on the new 500GB disk and restored from the TM backup. I got suspicious as I noted that the amount of data after the restore was too low, and started figuring out what would be missing. I was very surprised and disappointed to discover that my iPhoto library wasn't on the TM disk at all - on NONE of the backups!
The log on the TM disk says "Node requires deep traversal: /Users/<me>/Pictures/iPhoto Library reason:must scan subdirs|missed reservation|"
- but doesn't report any errors.
Very, very disappointing. I think I'll redo the restore from the old disk, I don't know what else may be missing, so...
