Hi,

I've got an airport disk that I use for time machine backups. Everything has been working flawlessly for about 8 months now. However, all of a sudden my MBP can no longer mount the backup volume. However, my mac mini can still successfully backup to the disk. I got an error "unable to mount time machine volume" after a failed backup attempt. I've tried rebuilding the directory with Disk Warrior and also repairing the sparsebundle in Disk Utility. Running Disk Warrior did not fix the issue and Disk Utility is not able to repair the drive properly. I've attached some screenshots for reference. Does anyone have any other ideas on how I can solve the issue without deleting the sparsebundle as I would like to keep my previous backups?

Here is the error I get when trying to manually mount the sparsebundle on my computer:
