| Oct 16, 2011 at 14:48 | comment | added | pitosalas | I did one more experiment. I created a brand new account and logged into it. Time Machine "Enter Time Machine" command still does nothing. The screen doesn't change, the disk doesn't make noise... THis is a total stumper that no-one seems to have any kind of clue... :( | |
| Oct 14, 2011 at 20:46 | comment | added | pitosalas | None that are related and time matched with when I try to do the "Enter Time Machine". Here is all of today's logs with the word "machine" in them. Looks like its happily doing a backup. The only quasi unusual thing is where TMSafetyNet is mentioned. But is not in sync with when I do the command. (My log is in the next post because of capacity of comments.) | |

| Oct 14, 2011 at 16:37 | comment | added | pitosalas | Yes I rebooted. I also unmounted, disconnected and powered off the drive. Then I deleted com.apple.TimeMachine preferences in /Library/Preferences. Then I rebooted, connected and powered the drive back up and configured Time Machine anew. It is now happily conducting it's backup but still the Enter Time Machine command doesn't do anything... Weird. | |

Time Machine seems to be working fine, except when I ask to "Enter Time Machine" on the menu, nothing happens!
