Time Machine backups freezing Mac OSX

Hi All,

I wanted to share a solution for a problem that had me puzzled for days, when I was starting Time machine backups, it would hang about 200-300MB into the job.


It turned out to he caused by the fact that I had scan network files enabled on my Sophos AV for Mac client.

Disabling that resolved the issue straight away.

Cheers,

Max

  • Hello Max,

    I see. Can't find an appropriate knowledgebase article - so you might want to take this to Support even though the forum likely (can't tell as I'm not a Mac user, at least the one I have access to does not run TM) has some useful information.

    Regards
