Hey guys,
I seem to be experiencing a strange issue.
Every so often the operating system (Mac OS Lion 10.7.3) will refuse to backup via time machine and spits a "Device ID doesnt match" error. From what i can tell it means the UUID of the external drive (that im using for time machine) has changed or something, as a result time machine doesnt backup anything. Anyone got any ideas as to what is wrong or why this is happening?
I have a 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo MacBook from 2008 running Mac OS Lion 10.7.3.
