So I've spent many a long night trying to get Parallels and Boot Camp to work proper on my machine. Parallels has been astoundingly unstable btw. The only functioning solution I found was to get Boot Camp up and running, then just use the same license of Windows in Parallels because I can't get the My Boot Camp nonsense to work correctly. Anyway, I got it working, spent many hours watching my various softwares' progress bars and decided to back up. I click on Time Machine and presto: error code -43. Apple says, "File not found; Folder not found; Edition container not found; Target not found." I don't necessarily need Time Machine, I am curious if, say, a Windows program like Acronis (Norton Ghost sucks) would back up the entire physical HDD, including OS X, but ideally, Time Machine should work... Help... My iMac is having its way with me.
