Time Machine not backing up.
Hi All.
Still on Mountain Lion (for recording studio reasons) and TM has been temperamental lately. The disk is mounted and I can use it freely in the finder but TM just says 'Looking for backup disk...' and nothing happens. I have formatted two different fresh disks, one connected via SATA 2 and the other via USB 3 and it's still the same. If I log in as the user 'Admin' I can choose 'backup now' and it will work for a few hours back in the normal user ID (which has admin privileges). I got a dialog pop up at one point that said 'files can't be copied onto the backup disc because it appears to be read only'. If I look at the privileges on the backup disk from another computer the first privilege is for another junk ID I have on the computer, 'read & write', then it says staff 'read only' and finally everyone 'read only'. If I look at the same disk from the computer in question I see myself, staff and everyone 'read and write'. This only started after I tried encrypting my backups a while back, then deciding not to bother recently.
Thanks.
