Viewing History

Every time a backup is performed manually or on a schedule a log entry is recorded with the time and date the backup occurred. This is useful to see when your backups are actually happening in case your Mac was turned off during a scheduled backup or otherwise not able to complete.

To view a tasks history:

  1. Select the task you wish to view.
  2. In the History pane there is a list of all log entries.
  3. You can optionally clear the history or open the log in the Finder for viewing in your default text editor application by pressing the buttons below the list.
