Time machine backup question
#3
I only know how to overcome this in the future, which is to manually create a sparsebundle yourself first---those can be used either locally or over a network, so when you switch from one to the other (and let TM know it's location) it just picks up where it left off. A side benefit is that you could then easily make backups of your TM backup, since the Finder or backup utility would simply see a sparsebundle disk image to copy.

I keep meaning to write something up here on how I did it (there's more than one way). And today isn't that day.

But in your situation there would have to be a way to convert what you had over to the sparsebundle. I haven't pursued this and don't know if it's possible.
