afinab 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2014 I have set TMG to remind me to back up when I click the little close button in the top right hand corner A few days ago it suddenly stopped doing it, at least sometimes. There does not seem to be any pattern to it. I checked that the reminder option was still checked in the preferences and it was. When it closes without backing up, and I then re-open TMG, and close again, it will usually remind me to back-up again. In other words erratic behavior. Any thoughts?

Max 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 The same happens on my computer from time to time, not very often (Windwos 7, 64 bit). I did not yet find out the exact sequence of keystrokes of close button where it happens. As mentioned above, after a restart the reminder to backup appeared again.

afinab 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 Thanks, Max. At least I am not alone. I don't think there is any particular series of keystrokes, just clicking the x in the corner does it; but I don't know. Afina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Virginia Blakelock 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 Afina - An alternative to the Backup on Exit is a Backup button on your Custom Toolbar. It runs much faster than the Backup on Exit - and is handy to backup during a work session if you have entered a lot of data - instead of waiting to backup until you shut down. I have that button at the beginning of the toolbar - but it would be even more practical perhaps to put it at the right end, near the X Close button so you don't forget it. There is a video here showing how fast it runs with all the options selected. There is more information on customizing TMG layouts and toolbars here.

afinab 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 Thanks, Virginia, I know that I can back-up that way, I was just wondering about the funny behavior. Afina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
