I'm supposed to back up my computer. Can someone help?

If you go into Finder, Apps, and double click the Time Machine icon, it might go to the task bar/menu.

You can also access it from System Preferences, fourth row of the main window.

I know how to find it, I was just mentioning that I couldn't find it on the menu bar. It showed up on my desktop, though, among all the photos that I need to sort through. As long as it seems to be working, I can now play around a bit, clean up some folders and files, and take it in for its checkup. I hope they can find a fixable problem so I don't have to buy anything new. Those young sales people seem to think anything over a few years old needs to be replaced
