Time Machine Back Up Error
is there a way to bypass this error when time machine backs up? There is more than enough room on my external hard drive, not sure why it would matter how full my mac storage is!

"Time Machine has completed a new backup for you, or get a message saying it can't create the backup,"
or “failed to complete the backup, ” or “Preparing backup”
This message reappears most likely the TimeMachine disk is operating in a state of failure and will continue to fail with increasing frequency, in this case replace the drive.
