Backups grayed out in Migration Assistant
My MacBook 12" 2017 running Ventura 13.6.6 was malfunctioning so I decided to reformat the hard drive and reinstall. Migration Assistant sees my external backup drive. However, the backup is grayed out and the continue button is too.
If I start the machine and open with Finder the external drive, the backups are there.
If I try to use Time Machine it refuses to select the drive because it is not empty and offers to erase it. It is formatted APFS case-sensitive.
Thanks
MacBook, macOS 13.6
