UNABLE TO CONNECT TO BACKUP ENGINE CRASHPLAN MANUAL

I don't want to have to babysit my backup software that I pay a monthly fee. So far I have 'fixed' it back to a working state 3 times due to updates, and this latest one is just the last straw. It is a shame, since CrashPlans prices are very reasonable, but with their lack of support and failure to keep things functioning the same way I am done with them.

If the CrashPlan Engine is not running, you will want to start it by running the following command as root: /etc/init.d/crashplan start I don’t want to back up iTunes, but it drops music in my Document Library by default.

It generally takes about three days for anyone at Code 42 to respond to my emails and I've called and they tell me I have to get support via email. The tray icon seems to run fine, but as soon as I tell it to show the application the CrashPlan application box that pops up stops responding immediately after it starts.
