TM Error Logger is an easy to use and free Mac OS X application that will allow you to view Time Machine error messages.
Do you get those Time Machine Error alert messages and wonder why? Would you like to find out exactly what caused the error so you can do something about it (or just ignore it)?
Run TM Error Logger after you get the Time Machine error and you will get a report showing which file or folder caused the error. Click on "Open Problem Folder" to reveal the folder containing the problem.
TM Error Logger will poll the system log every 30 seconds looking for Time Machine Errors. You can update the window immediately by clicking "Current Log"
