Backing up computer with Time Machine
! was trying to do a backup for my Mac OS 10.6.8 so I can upgrade to OS 10.7. I was using Time Machine. After 12 hours, it still hadn't finished, so I canceled it. I have thousands of documents and pictures. Could it just be slow, or do I have to do something else, other than couble click on the application icon to get it started? It displays on the lower right different dates, including Now.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
