You can backup your files with an FTP program and backup the database from the admin area of the CART or the CPanel on your Hosting account using phpMyAdmin.
In phpMyAdmin choose the database and export
In the admin area of the CART on the right choose DB Backup/Restore
I have had this same issue with one of our site. We have several different sites on several different host. I am able to back up all of my sites using Store Manager except the site at newsgames.com
I have contacted the host but they see no problem.
Yes, I am able to back up using old fashioned ftp and database backup built in to the online admin, but I wanted to back up using the Store Manager. Especially since I am getting ready to upgrade to sp4.
Does your host have a way of backing up your site? I do both, but more so on the host side only because your hard drive can crash any time unless you have two or more backups on different drives.
here is a great article for moving between servers

I used this method twice and it worked fine. The only problem I had was with my new server which runs on cpanel. This causes a permissions problem but CHOWN the entire folder fixed it.
