  • Sorry, LisaT, this got fixed for me on another thread - In short, excluding the TM archive (in my case a Time Capsule) solved the first issue, the second issue was postbox mail archive.

  • call apple and ask them for help to optimize your TM setup. In short, a local congested network and DHCP will eventually cause errors to crop up in your TM backup.

  • Sorin I've narrowed the culprit. BD was stuck scanning postbox app. Excluding the app has solved the problem. You can close the ticket.

  • Already done, and more than once. No luck. It doesn't work alone or in combination with the fix offered by you. After your proposed fixes, initially scanning new files is dramatically reduced. As soon as TM launches a backup, it constantly scans. Also, after one or two wakes from sleep, scanning constantly. Keep in mind, I…

  • Sorin I can update you that the "fix" did not take.

It worked for awhile but something still isn't right. Any more ideas?

  • Georgia - do you still need to drop the TM into the exclusions if the 2016 version has the "don't scan time machine" checked?

  • I installed Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac on two different macs, a 2012 mini and a macbook air. On the air, bit defender works fine. Scans when needed and returns to idle state. Both macs are running el captain, latest version. On the mini, however, bitdefender is constantly scanning. Bitdefender related processes are…
