The latest Mac OS X upgrade is available at a Software Update near you. Apart from fixing loads of glitches, it also messes with Time Machine and some upgraders, this one included, have had mixed results after the upgrade. For more details go to the Discussions on Apples Support pages, here.

In most cases the drive used by Time Machine for storage refuses to mount. Various solutions are offered ranging from a low level reformat, turning Time Machine to a new drive and back again or trashing Time Machine’s and other System preferences. See the discussions for greater detail.

My Time Machine is is operating flawlessly after the 10.5.3 update. But I haven’t repaired my permissions yet so that might be a case of a stitch in time. I am impressed that you know so much about the innards of OS X. My in-depth knowledge of the Mac OS ended, in large part, after Mac OS 9.2.2. I find the guts of OS X daunting, at best.

2 posts in 2 days… you’re prolific this week Mr. Tennent. Interesting, as always.
