About:
TM Error Logger is a specialized utility designed to capture and report errors generated by Apple's Time Machine backup service. It provides detailed diagnostics on backup failures, helping users and administrators identify and resolve issues with their macOS backups. The tool offers a graphical interface to view and export error logs for easier troubleshooting.
Key Features:
  • Monitors and logs Time Machine backup errors in real-time
  • Provides detailed diagnostic reports for troubleshooting
  • Graphical interface for easy log viewing and management
  • Ability to export error logs for analysis or support tickets
Use Cases:
  • Diagnosing persistent Time Machine backup failures on macOS
  • Generating detailed error reports for Apple Support or IT administrators
Alternatives:
  • Time Machine Scheduler – Focuses on backup scheduling and management rather than error diagnostics
  • Console.app – Built-in macOS tool that can view logs but lacks Time Machine-specific filtering and analysis
