I have been unable to perform a backup of my new iMac Desktop running OS Monterey version 12.4 to which I installed all prior iMac folders from a G Drive mini that is now not being recognized to do a external backup
The G DRIVE mini has not been successfully been able to perform a backup via Time Machine. I tried for 7-8 hours yesterday and I received messages via Time Machine that there is no room on the device and/or there is no information on the device despite the fact that I did the installation of my prior iMac to the new iMac OS Monterey using the G DRIVE mini. I did not delete anything from the G DRIVE mini on purpose. It has a 1TB storage capacity and is supposed to delete older back ups to make room for new back ups. The connection of the G DRIVE mini is done via FireWire. The device is available in the window from which to chose which disc to backup to in Time Machine preferences.
Thank you for any and all assistance in this matter.
iMac, OS X 10.11
