Hello Dave:

Happy New Year! Hope you are doing well. Thanks for all the information about the next version. Looking forward to it.

I recently have had a problem with iCal and performing a backup. I have made a backup of my iCal calendar and this is what happens from the Log in SuperDuper:

I'm not sure what "Result too large" means but I have deleted the offending file and the backup proceeds without any problems. The only problem I have is that I then do not have a backup of my iCal calendar which honestly has been somewhat "flaky" recently. What do you suggest I do?

Thanks!

It means you've got some damage on your source drive. You need to start up from your Tiger DVD, select "Disk Utility" from the Utilities menu, and then repair the internal drive using the buttons on the right side of the Disk First Aid tab (not Repair Permissions on the left).

Once again- swift and accurate reply. Where exactly do you get all this goodness anyway...?

:)

Anyway, doing a Disk First Aid repair solved the problem.

Best to you and your family...
