 * My last successful back up was back in November. Since then, I have scheduled
   weekly backups and attempted to backup manually but nothing happens.

 * Hi zonemom,
 * When you press on “Backup Now”, does it then show you a link to a page to read
   if nothing happens?

 * I didn’t notice a link. It simply said a backup run had been scheduled followed
   by the date and time.

 * Hi,
 * Please do this:
 * 1) Press “Backup Now”
 * 2) Then take a screenshot of your screen, and post the link to it here. Use [http://snag.gy](http://snag.gy)
   if it helps.
