HI. I am getting this error when backing up. I looked in the Photos library package and the file does not exist. I tried repairing the library by option-cmd double click on Photos icon.

Hi there!
See if you can complete this Time Machine backup from safe mode. Safe mode can help you to determine whether an issue is caused by software that loads as your Mac starts up.
If the issue continues, take a look at If you can't back up or restore your Mac using Time Machine - Apple Support. If the other steps don't work for your situation, you may need to erase your backup disk, then use Time Machine to select it as your backup disk again, as outlined in the article.
If you have any questions, please let us know!
