My Time Machine will back up most of my data until running into an alert that "some files cannot be copied" then it stops without completing the back up. Is there a way to identify these files it cannot copy?
Thanks for your help
Mac mini, macOS 11.3
Not that I know of. But you might try booting into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down), select Disk Utility and run First Aid on your data volume. If you get any errors rerun First Aid till you don't. Then reboot normally and start a fresh TM backup. See if that will get thru the problem.
