Make sure the EHD is Formatted Mac OS Extended (journaled). See > iPhoto: How to move the Library to an EHDįirst. you can Move it to another External Drive and use it from there and then you can use TM to Backup that Drive as well as as your Mac. I think you mean Your Hard Disc is Full as opposed to iPhoto. If I delete my photos from my computer, will the photos still be on the external hard drive and saved in time machine? I am parinoid about losing my photos (memories). I copied my photo library to the external hard drive and burned all of my pictures onto DVD's. I bought an external hard drive and am using it as time machine. I bought an external hard drive and now use it as time machine. Maybe the disc is scratched and cannot be used.

Is the CD blank? You'll want a blank one.

Is your disc a CD or a DVD? You want a CD, not a DVD.
