Time Machine error

[Richdmoore]

For what it is worth, I had the error again just now, and looking at the log posts above determined it was the milod directory. (I previously excluded the widget listed in previous posts.) I used theses instructions to exclude it, as just doing it via the gui time machine did not work (Hidden file?)

I remember that I also made that exclusion from the terminal. I went back just now to double check and noticed that the directory was not hidden. I also went to a second Mac and noticed it wasn't hidden there as well. I'm not sure what changed. In any case, usually just typing "cmd-shift-." exposes hidden things when using the selection dialog and the Finder in general. (It's just a toggle to show or hide hidden files or directories.) But, I suspect I used the terminal because that toggle failed to show the directory.

Did it solve the problem?
