Summary

  • add an FAQ troubleshooting section for OSStatus Error 80 when reusing an existing Time Machine sparsebundle
  • document checking for a stale sparsebundle lock file only after confirming the backup is not mounted or in use
  • document removing matching sparsebundle Keychain entries, including System keychain entries, with security CLI examples

Validation

  • reviewed the docs diff
  • compared the suggested steps against public Time Machine OSStatus Error 80 reports and macOS security CLI documentation
  • not run: test suite, docs-only change
