My iTunes music library is stored on an external hard drive. When I do the Time Machine backup, is it backing up those files also? If not, how can I include my iTunes music files in the Time Machine backup? Thanks.
Mac mini, macOS 10.13
Hello. Open up the Time Machine system preference pane on your Mac and click the Options button to view the exclusion list, make sure your external drive is not in this list (select and then click the minus (-) button to remove it if it is). Once this is saved Time Machine will now be backing up your external drive as well.
