I just received my new ministack and can't figure out a few things. They should really have a more detailed manual than a folded piece of paper.
According to the manual, the ministack is supposed to boot up with my mini but it seems to stay on. The light is on and the fan keeps going. I tried it with only the Firewire connect and both the Firewire and USB2 connected. And both times set to 1394, not Auto. I tried to shut down and reboot 3 times, leaving the ministack on the whole time, and it never shut down with the mini. Am I missing something?
I also used their software, Quickback, to make a back up of my whole internal drive. And then I tried to click it again to see if it would immediately tell me it's already updated. Instead, I got a message saying
"Your copy cannot continue because your source and destination both contain the following files:"
And then it lists a bunch of folders on the ministack. Can someone explain this to me? I don't want to have to drag and drop every time and wonder whether I forgot something.
