Hi All, I said some while back that I've been having problems with my TM backups and after spending easily over and hour on the phone yesterday with Apple support what we have found is that I have a folder that TM will never back up. It can be renamed, copied to the desktop and imported into another user's Public drop box and TM will refuse to back it up or its contents. The Finder is happy with it, it operates as normal in every way, works find in Open/Save dialogs and it looks just fine in terminal too. I zipped it up and emailed to the Apple support guy and he found that his TM would not back it up either! Result.
He is sending to Apple's engineers and will let me know - I will post back any results here for whatever use they may ben. We rely on TM to backup our stuff so we don't have to worry. Not fun to find out that you need a file only to discover that, for reasons presently unkown, it's been excluded from your backup for days, weeks, years ...
