Out of curiosity, I decided to try with a trial version of chronosync, backing up to a folder on the Public drive, not to the Backup.
Same thing happened, after about 30 seconds of starting, I lose the connection to the My World Book. So it would seem to be a WD issue, as apposed to a Time Machine issue.
Unfortunately, I am unable to reproduce your problem. I do have some questions that might help me figure out the difference between our setups.
-
Do you have any other network devices or computers on your network?
-
Do you have all system updates applied to your Mac?
-
What firmware version are you running on your My Book World?
-
What brand and model of router are you using?
-
Do you have any Ethernet switches or hubs on your network? If so, what model are they?
-
Is your Mac connected via wired or wireless connection?
-
How much free space do you have on your My Book World?
I hope this information is enough. If not, I may wind up coming back with some more questions. I wish I had a better answer for you instead of just questions.
