Hi Anyone who may help.
Firstly everything worked once and I have now created time machine backups for 3 macs and had multiple successful backups.
Now a new problem, after the NAS had a scheduled power off it no longer performs backups on any of the macs, it just does a quick looking for disk and then stops - importantly it doesnt say not found so it must see the disk which is an error id see if it cant find the disk. I can also access files on the nas and so doesnt seem to be network problem.
Any idea how to fix it?
Thanks

Are you talking about the NAS internal disk(s) / volume?

Not sure what you mean. Basically I can't get it to do any more tm backups

You said: it just does a quick looking for disk and then stops. I have no idea what that means. I guess you are saying that when you run TM on the Mac it isn't finding the NAS???
I'm not a Mac user - hopefully someone else who uses TM will chime in.
