The latest backup would show up on the menu with the correct date, now although the backup is performed the latest backup that show in the menu is May 2 2015. How do I correct this? Thanks everyone
MacBook Air, iOS 8.3, Time Capsule Backup
now although the backup is performed the latest backup that show in the menu is May 2 2015.
I'm not sure whether the "latest backup" means the oldest backup date....or.....whether the "latest backup" means the most recent backup. Can you clarify on that?
Since there are no "menus" at the top of the screen when you open Time Machine......which "menus" are you referring to here?

Thanks Tim! I am impressed, thanks for such an immediate response.
I am referring to MOST RECENT BACKUP
I am referring to the menu at the top of the computer screen, where you can see and enter the little clock that is the TIME CAPSULE icon through which you are able to enter TIME MACHINE, enable a backup or open TIME MACHINE preferences.
My husband's multiple MAC computers no longer register the most recent backup either but the backup in fact does exist.
So, you are looking at Time Machine Preferences?
What is the exact information that you see there regarding the backup dates?
You should see something like Backups: January 1, 2015 - Today, 8:30 AM, for example.
Oldest backup: May 30, 2013
Latest backup: May 2 2014
The actual latest backup was last evening. I put items on the desktop and these show up on the backup
Make sure that the Time Capsule is not backing up at the time
Pull the power cord from the back of the Time Capsule
Wait a few seconds
Plug the power cord back into the Time Capsule and give it a minute to restart
Then restart your Mac
Check Time Machine again.
If the information is still incorrect, there is some sort of bug involved here, and you will need to check with Apple support for further advice. Click "Contact Us" at the lower right of this web page.
Thanks Tim.
It did not work.
Same goes for several new MACS wth different TIME CAPSULES. My MacBook Pro does show the correct info.
At this point, I have no other ideas about what might be causing this.
Perhaps another user can help, or you might want to contact Apple support to go over this.
time capsule backup does not show up on menu correctly
