Time machine fails to backup
Time Machine is telling me:
"The backup disk ran out of space unexpectedly. Time Machine will try to make more space available by removing expired backups during the next scheduled backup.
Open Time Machine preferences to select a larger backup disk or make the backup smaller by excluding files."
I would expect it to erase the older files to make space for the new ones. It's not.
I can always do it manually, but I don't think this will solve the problem, just postpone it...
And If I erase it manually, It doesn't garantee that the files that have never changed, hence are not in the newer backups will be backed up again and may be lost forever.
What Should I do?
