No date in "Last Copy" column
SD makes a backup of my HD every Sunday AM, but there is never any date in the "Last Copy" column. It always shows the "Next Copy" date as a week away. I've manually ran a backup and it still doesn't put a date in the "Last Copy" column. Is that normal, and if so, why isn't there a date there so I know that a backup was completed?
Thanks. |

As a new user of SD, I wasn't aware of the log file until you mentioned it. There was a record of only one backup, the one I ran manually this morning. I've ran other backups manually. Does the log only keep a copy of the last backup?

Each individual log is just a single backup. Additional logs for that particular setup can be accessed by Cmd+clicking the title bar of the window and selecting the "Logs" folder.

An existing log window.

The other question is why even the manual backups aren't listed in the Last Copy column. |

That's true, and documented in the Scheduling section of the User's Guide.
I don't know why your manual backups aren't listed, if they're run from Scheduled Copies.

Are you sure it's running? When you run "manually", are you running from the Scheduled Copies window?

Yes, I do run it manually from the Scheduled Copies window, and it still doesn't put a date the the Last Copy column.

I guess I'd suggest deleting and recreating your schedule. Then, try clicking Copy Now in the Scheduled Copies window. Let's see if that works.
