Absolutely losing my mind trying to perform a backup on my computer (~1.2TB used storage; a large backup). Running macOS 13.3.1 via OC v0.6.8. Trying to perform a backup before updating to macOS 13.6.
I am getting the following WindowServer Error (attached) after hard restarting my computer.
As I understand it, this is linked to System Sleep in some way. I have tried disabling sleep entirely via multiple system settings, but it still freezes. I have also been using
to find and disable applications preventing sleep properly and ended up disabling Continuity features to start. Even with nothing preventing sleep, the problem persisted.
So I am out of ideas, the computer will backup for like an hour or 2 and then give up. I think Time Machine saves the progress of the current backup (as I am seeing less and less storage available on the drive despite no files regularly visible) but I am leery of trusting a backup that was formed across 5-8 sessions follow frozen computer states.
Anyone else encountered and overcome this problem? thanks for your time
