Time Machine Backup: "Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder."
The first thing to try in this situation is a simple restart and remount of your external drive. If the problem persists the following might well fix this error:
(1) select your backup disk in Finder
(2) select the Backups.backupdb folder
(3) select the folder with the name of your computer
(4) look for a file that ends .inProgress
(5) drag the .inProgress file to trash to delete it
(6) select Time Machine icon from top menu bar and choose "Backup Now"
All should now return to normal. If it doesn't then this thread has some suggestions.
