If you have tried to erase the contents of your Time machine backup (external drive) and received the “Cannot unmount disk” error – no fear. I too have received the error and resolved it by plugging the external drive into a different mac and used the disk utility to erase it. Don’t forget to choose the Max OS Extended (Journaled) option for Time Machine.
