Brand new time machine set up, weird gray text, un-selectable files.
Just got a new external hard drive for time machine back ups. Set it up and went into it via the Time Machine interface and the text in the finder window is all gray and in separate boxes and nothing is selectable. The disk was formatted fresh before I set it up and is brand new so it has no older time machine back ups associated with it. I still have the old time machine drive and hooked it up and it has the same problem which I never noticed (I don't think I've ever had to actually retrieve anything from it). Looking at the drive itself via Finder the files are all there and have been backed up, the interface is just wonky. Any ideas?
