SD resets my computer's idletime ...

Hi Dave,

When the backup is not successful, SD is left open and it's status is «inactive». Also, every 4 minutes or so, it is modified to «running», probably because it is checking to find the drive. By so doing my computer's idle time is reseted preventing forever from going to sleep. My work around has been to write an AppleScript handler that forces quit SD if the idletime is more than 3 minutes.

When unsuccessful, couldn't SD offer the option to quit or to be left open ? SD could use a persistent message from Growl to remind the user of that case.

Regards.


Robert
