sbken Posted April 1, 2003 Report Share Posted April 1, 2003 The worst of all conditions! I’ve been backing up daily for quite some time and now I have some serious problems with my iBook that will require me to reformat my HD. Before I erased everything I checked Retrospect 5.0.238 to make sure I could restore a backup. I can’t! I backup to a different file Monday through Sunday on to an external USB HD - with split files catalog and data. I have “Verification“ turned on for backup and no error messages have been received. When I attempt to perform a restore and receive an error -36 and when I go to Configure -> Devices -> BackupHD I receive the message “Content unrecognized”. Where to I go from here? I need to erase my internal HD, but without a backup available I’ll loose all my data. I would have thought the Verification would have alerted me to problems with the external HD. Guess not. Configuration: 300 MHz iBook, 320 MB RAM and OS 9.2.2 I really need help on this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbken Posted April 1, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2003 This is in addition to my post of yesterday. Last night the backup did not work. I received the error message: “Can’t save snapshot, error -194 (unknown)” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
