How to remove a no longer existing backup location.
I created a new file server and shut the old one down. My True Image backups were going to the old machine. I now backup to the new machine, but each job fails because it can't find the old machine. I've tried deleting the backup and creating a new one, but the backup location still exists after I create the new backup and causes the job to fail again.
Any ideas?
I've done that a few times as well. Only I have to "remove from list" because selecting delete just sits there forever, trying to find the non-existant directory. Then I create a new backup, select my location, select Later from the backup now drop down, edit settings and there is the non-existant file server path again!

Note the link above. Look it figures 6, 7, and 8. Figure 8 shows where you can make any changes you wish to the path where the backup task is to be stored.
I've done that as well. Yet when I goto backup, it asks me to authenticate with the machine that no longer exists.
Paul,
I'm having exactly the same problem and the answers I've seen above don't address mine either. Have you gotten a solution to this issue?
Del,
If I am understanding you correctly, you was backing up to location A but now you want to backup to location B.
In order to do that, stop using the task which goes to A. If it is a scheduled task, then change the schedule to not scheduled.
Create a new task going to B.
