OSX: Change time machine auto backup interval
The default time machine backup interval is every hour. Sometimes this can be really annoying so, if you find yourself in need to change this, here’s how:
Navigate to /System/Library/LaunchDaemons and locate the file named com.apple.backupd-auto.plist.
Inside this file you will find the following content:
<key>StartInterval</key> <integer>3600</integer>
3600 means hourly (60 minutes X 60 seconds). If you multiply by 4, for instance, and use that value (14400) you will have automatic backups every 4 hours instead. Or whatever interval you prefer.
Happy backing up
