You have failed me for the last time, Time Machine. Clean system install. Newly formatted backup drive. No excuse to not be able to back up.

@mjtsai Might see something in the system log that explains what’s going on…
Michael Tsai ‏@mjtsai 13 Feb 2014

@dnanian “Backup failed with error 2: 2”
Dave Nanian ‏@dnanian 13 Feb 2014

@mjtsai Nothing else from backups?
Michael Tsai ‏@mjtsai 13 Feb 2014

@dnanian Just that it was starting the backup. UI said it couldn’t create the backup folder, which is what it often says. Perms seem OK.

@mjtsai Destination drive secure erased to try to remap sectors?
Michael Tsai ‏@mjtsai 13 Feb 2014

@dnanian Just regular erase, but I did a full scan for bad blocks.
Dave Nanian ‏@dnanian 13 Feb 2014

@mjtsai Weird. Haven’t seen it myself.
Michael Tsai ‏@mjtsai 13 Feb 2014

@dnanian This has happened to me with about 6 destination drives on at least 3 Macs. :( Anyway, I’ll just use other software going forward.
Dave Nanian ‏@dnanian 13 Feb 2014

@mjtsai So, you’re saying the common element between all these failures is you. ;-)
