I have a .mac account & the backup software that comes with it (version 3.1) I back up all of my important documents every day, but I also am trying to set up my iphoto (version 5) library to backup once a month, using the apple backup software. I have tried it several different ways & I always get the same error. I am backing up to an exteral drive with plenty of extra room. Every time it backs up, it gets most of the way done & then I get an error message

"Unable to copy /Users/mkral/Pictures/iPhoto Library/iPod Photo Cache/F09/T2963.ithmb to /Volumes/iLife/Users/mkral/Pictures/iPhoto Library/iPod Photo Cache/F09/T2963.ithmb: Mac OS error -36
End backup at 2006-08-03 04:00:32.942 -0400"

The error is the exact same every time, except that the specific photo changes (it's not always T2963.ithmb) If I remove the offending file from the iphoto library, another file takes it's place as the one that stops the backup. Any ideas on how to get this to work?

Thanks in advance,
Mark
