I would like to be able to run my backups once a day to a mapped out network drive. I tried creating a new backup device, but it only allows me to see the C:/ drive...not the network drive that has been mapped out.

Can anyone help me with this?

you cant backup to mapped network drives. You need to share the drive and backup to the UNC path \\server\share
