Trouble with Time Machine

[andreasl]

Hi. I just purchased a MacBook Air M2 2022 running MacOS Ventura 14.1.

I’m trying to set it up with Time Machine on an external USB-drive. But I can’t make it complete the first backup. In the attached screenshot it says - something to the effect of:

"Some of the folders on your Mac cannot be backed up until they have finished synchronization to the cloud. Try again when all folders have been synchronized.” https://twitter.com/messages/media/1720549332561047666

Sounds like you need to give it some time. icloud - Time Machine: Some of the files on your Mac cannot be backed up until Cloud Files syncing has completed - Ask Different
