Description of my issue:

This problem has been showing up now for a while. Every time I try to make a Backup with Akeeba I get an error, all this time I wasn´t worry because I managed to upload the files manually to Amazon S3, but right now I´m unable to do that.

Thanks in Advance!!!!

Please read the Basic Setup for cloud backups section in our documentation. Your Part Size for Split Archives is set too high, causing a timeout.

Moreover, all of this information is also present in our troubleshooter for Amazon S3 uploads, the last paragraph. Whenever you have problem uploading to S3, please follow the instructions on that page. It solves 100% of the S3 issues which can be solved by end users, i.e. anything except having to upgrade/configure PHP or fixing a networking issue on the server.
