Problematic macOS Ventura update

Posts: 1 · CB58 16 Nov 2022, 13:57

Hello
Since updating my iMac M1 to macOS 13 Ventura, I have a problem syncing files to my external hard drives. Everything was fine before, only new files were copied (mirror synchronization), but since then, each synchronization starts as at the beginning, copying everything, which takes a lot of time and resources.
I have since installed the latest version (11.28), thinking that the problem would be fixed, but it is not!
Am I the only one experiencing this problem?
Should I wait for the problem to be corrected internally, or is there a setting to be made on the software to correct this defect?
I look forward to an answer, thank you in advance
Cordially

Post an example. Also, run a compare and see why FFS is wanting to sync everything again

Outside of the realm of FFS, with Ventura - no ;-).

And as far as that goes, don't count out Win11 either.

Are your external hard drives formatted as FAT32?
See this posting: viewtopic.php?t=9866

Check the dates on the copied files--do they match the versions on your internal drive, or are they all set to the date & time the FFS job was run?
