I continue to be bugged by the TimeMachine backup failure "Some of the files on your Mac cannot be backed up until Cloud Files syncing has completed." I have two machines that are identically configured. Both back-up to a Synology NAS. One works fine and the other consistently gives this error message. I think I had hoped Apple would fix this in 14.1, but they clearly haven't; the issue persists. Anyone got any suggestions to resolve this?
 
Quick update for anyone with this same issue. I have searched every forum and website that I can find that references this issue. With help from an Apple forum, I was able to fix the issue very simply. Go to System Settings/General/Login Items, scroll down to 'Allow in the Background' and turn off any activity associated with Adobe. My TimeMachine backup re-started immediately and I was able to turn both the Adobe background options back on again and it still works.

Hope this is helpful.
