Today was one of the rare occasions when I actually had my Powerbook switched on BEFORE the scheduled backup. And indeed, SuperDuper did start up... however, not much else was happening. So I went into the log and saw that the schedule was marked red. Here’s the log entry:

| 11:00:53 AM | Error | The automatic copy aborted because SuperDuper! could not locate the Destination volume named System Backup.

I then realized that the dropdown menu for the destination was blank. Odd, because I have not changed the name for the destination nor done anything with it since saving the schedule. Also, when starting SuperDuper manually the drive is shown. Needless to say that it was present on my desktop throughout. Is it possible that, for customized backups, the saved schedule is not smart enough to realize that a bootable new copy exists? I.e. each time I was syncing manually (for reasons explained in previous posts due to the unreliability of SD to postpone scheduled backups) the drive I had selected in my schedule was “erased” even though the name is still the same? I cannot see any other reason for SD not to find the drive.
