Time Machine hangs while backing up, 10.7.5, both MBP & iMac, same hang 3 different TMBackUpDrives
I'm experiencing a problem on two machines, a 15-inch, Late 2008 MBP and similar date 24" iMac. Time machine is hanging shortly after it begins to back up. Both machines are hanging shortly into the write on a network drive, or 2 different usb2 externals. Is anyone else experiencing new problems? The backups have been working great for months but now (I'm wondering about any recent updates?) I can't complete a back up. the Seagate guy on a Facebook thread was asking me about updates? I'm not on 10.8 yet but now I'm reluctant to go ahead unless I can first ensure I've got clean and recent backups. Any ideas?
