rsync -aWuq --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/Seagate
rsync: mkdir "/media/bmike1/Seagate" failed: Permission denied (13)
Mike, this suggests that whatever user is login in to the remote box doesn't have the rights to 'mkdir /media/bmike1/Seagate'
Login to that box with that user and run that mkdir.
If it fails (and most likely will), you know what the problem is.
Being that the problem, there is a wide array of options to overcome it.

What is the exact text of the error? What are the existing permissions of
what you're trying to backup?

I was trying to backup my system for the first time and rsync is throwing
a permission denied error up. Did something change with rsync or is this a
user error? How do I fix it?
