I cannot reach support in any way to solve my backup problems or upgrade to 2017 version
I am unable to reach acronis support via website or phone without paying a fee. My company will not pay for this support since I purchased acronis home 2016 last month.
I backed up to one external HD in the disk/image mode. It failed giving me an error that state it may be a problem with the HD. I backed up to another external HD that I used for acronis 2014 with no problems. I was able to backup, but during the validate cycle I received the same error that my HD was corrupt. I was able to validate this backup with acronis home 2014 rescue disk.
How can I get help since I cannot use the 2014 version on windows since I reformatted it hard drive?

Thanks for the suggestions. I will run chkdsk and let you know.
I purchased true image about 4 months ago? Am I entitled to Acronis 2017 freee upgrade?

Howard, see KB document: 58527: Upgrading to Acronis True Image 2017 which defines the rule for free upgrades etc.
Alternatively, contact Acronis Support via their Live Chat facility and ask as a pre-sales question.
See forum post: https://forum.acronis.com/forum/97491#comment-385474 where I have outlined the steps to use Live Chat. This was for a technical question but you can choose Pre-sales in the first step.
