Time Machine not making hourly backups on MacBook Pro
On my M1Max MacBook Pro running Tahoe 26.5.1 Time Machine has stopped making hourly backups. It is now 10:21 PM, and this is the current status:
Basically 12 hours ago was when the last backup completed. It was not one that had been triggered automatically, but I triggered it by selecting “Back Up Now” from the Time Machine menu in the menu bar.
I had removed this backup destination once before, when this happening, and re-added it. This fixed the problem for a few weeks, but then hourly backups stopped again. It was a couple of weeks, before I noticed. This was a time frame, during which no backups were made. A scary thought!
I will take that route again and see, what happens. Basically, however, I would like to understand what the root cause is.
