Root Problem backing up Launcher Pro homescreens/settings

Good evening fellow Eris users!

So I'm having trouble backing up my homescreens/settings with Launcher Pro. Never had any issues before, and I probably do have a pretty recent backup... however, I'm just wondering if anyone has any ideas why this would happen. When I try to make a backup, it gives me the usual warning about how I can't automatically restore widgets and will have to do so manually, but then gives me the message: "An error occurred when trying to make the backup. Please make sure the SD card is available." I am charging my phone right now, but not with my computer (i.e. eris is not mounted). Anyway, I've never had any issues before-- I did just update Launcher Pro, no idea if that would have anything to do with it. Going to try a reboot to see if that works. If not I know the developer is very helpful and I believe he has a forum(?) or at least email I could send. Will report back...
 
Thanks guys, I just flashed xtrROM4.2 and restored my most recent backup, which worked fine. I was just curious for if I make any drastic changes in the future and want to do a new backup. I will probably first try just reinstalling Launcher Pro and if that didn't work try changing the folder/file names. Was more just curious for future reference and to see if anyone else had run into that issue. Thank you both for the suggestions!
