So, I have a problem with my Time Machine backups:

Setup is this: Wireless connection to Airport Extreme, USB HD attached to the back of that.
HD has two Time Machine .sparsebundle files for the two machines that back up onto it. It's full, so Time Machine has to delete old stuff to store new stuff.
The Backup for my machine only throws up this error message:

The backup for the other machine works fine.

I can mount the .sparsebundle for the other backup, but if i try to mount mine I get this:


I'm guessing that my Backup file is corrupt.

Questions are:

How did that happen?
How do I start again?
Will it keep happening?
Is it the fact that the HD is full the problem? I can get a bigger one if I must.
