Time Machine disables Bluetooth

I have to admit, that I haven’t used much of the build in features of MacOS X in the past, so I haven’t really hit any problems in running my setup.

So, today I thought that I give Time Machine a try. I mean, after all it sounds very impressing and I also want to travel, at least once, trough space with my Mac.

Connecting my LaCie Rugged Firewire drive was a no brainer, but as soon as I enabled Time Machine my connection to my Logitech TravelMouse Bluetooth enabled Mouse was lost! Surely, I must have hit a “disable bluetooth” button or alike somewhere, right? Or is the battery of my mouse dead? Bluetooth is still on?

Well, it turns out that on some machines, as soon as you turn on Time Machine you will loose connection to your bluetooth devices! It also turns out that I am not the only one with Time Machine problems. If you read trough this Apple Discussion topic you will see that there are some other “mean errors” involved with Time Machine.

So far for now, let’s hope that Apple will fix these issues in the upcoming 10.5.6 release (which apparently is ready to be released).
