A file that is in use, whether it is an application you are using, or an open file you are editing/viewing, is marked by the system software as being "busy" and therefore can NOT be backed up by the 40SC Tape Back-up.
To back up these files or applications, close the file and quit the application before running the back-up program.
In addition, the System file, Finder, and other like files in the System Folder on your start-up volume are marked as "busy". To back up system software, you need to start up from a different volume before running the 40SC Tape Back-up application.
