Backup Software Recommendation

Looking at backing up my X-Serve and 3.5TB X-Serve Raid using Apple, instead of backing it up as a client using Backup Exec thru Windows. I just downloaded Retrospect Server and it seems very weak. Anyone have a recommendation.
I would like to find some software that will allow me to do weekly (during the weekend) "full" backups and during the week "incremental". Of course utilizing multiple tape library sets, etc. I just bought an IBM Ultrium Tape Library System connect via Fiber.
Any help in this department would be much appreciated.

Atempo Time Navigator, Bakbone Netvault, or Tolis Group's BRU, in that order.

RELIABLE data backup software recommendation for MacBook Pro WANTED!

I own Retrospect 6.x and I must say that on the intel platform it is less than stellar. On my 15" Powerbook I would get about 90MB/minute and on my new 17" MacBook Pro I am getting about 30MB/minute, which is taking FOREVER. Can someone PLEASE recommend some reliable data backup software in universal binary that will obtain backup speeds similar to what I use to get out of Retrospect on my powerbook? Thank you kindly!
Scott

Welcome to the forum,
If you don’t have a .Mac account, you may want to consider it. It has a fairly respectable BackUp feature that’s quite good and very well integrated to your Mac. I strongly recommend it. Can’t say much compared to the speed of Retrospect although it does perform incremental backups as well as a host of other options. Hope that you may find this useful, etc.

(Non-Time Machine) backup software recommendations for Snow Leopard

I have been a long time user of Retrospect Desktop backup software, up to and including version 6.1. It has saved my skin at least twice when I've had catastrophic hard drive failures. I've been using 6.1 successfully in Leopard, under Rosetta. However, as I prepare to upgrade to Snow Leopard, I discovered Retrospect 6.1 will incompatible. According to Roxio:
+Snow Leopard stores some files, including some applications and all files in the /System/ directory, in a compressed format. Retrospect can only restore files in their uncompressed format. This means that a complete OS restore will require an additional 4-5 GB of available storage space on the destination. When /System/ files are restored uncompressed, the Mac OS X may complain about certain files, such as fonts and kernel extensions, not being installed properly.+
Naturally I thought about upgrading to Retrospect 8, which is supposed to be compatible with Snow Leopard, until I read the disaster stories of bug-ridden unfinished Retrospect 8.0 software being released as golden master without a manual. These inexcusable problems persisted through 8.0 and 8.1. Version 8.2 is in beta and addresses restoring from previous version backups and PowerPC compatibility, but it remains to be seen if Roxio will salvage Retrospect and return it to a position of respectability. (Too bad EMC bought Dantz years ago.)
In any case, I'm now looking for other backup software. I need software that does incremental backups, can restore the system to a previous state existing at the time of a given previous (not necessarily most recent) backup, and supports user-defined rules for file inclusion/exclusion, as well as automated scripts. Automatic verification of the backup by comparing original files to the backed-up version (like in Retrospect) is nice, though probably unnecessary most of the time. Time Machine is nice but in my experience doesn't support some of these features and I'm not entirely comfortable relying on Time Machine alone because I've encountered some problems in the past where my backups were lost.
I'm considering Carbon Copy Cloner, but not sure it does true incremental backups and can restore the system to a state that existed at the time of a previous -- rather than most recent -- backup. Also considering Intego's Personal Backup and ProSoft's Data Backup 3.
I would love to hear any recommendations you might offer regarding these or any other backup software solutions.
Thanks.

Time Machine can do all that except the scripts - I'm not sure what you're wanting to script - and it doesn't have rules for exclusion, but does let you exclude any items you specify. From the sounds of it, though, you're trying to make your backups more complex than they need to be. Keep it simple and there's less chance for something to go wrong.
I'm not entirely comfortable relying on Time Machine alone because I've encountered some problems in the past where my backups were lost.
You shouldn't be comfortable relying on any single backup program. Backup software is still software, and as such can have bugs and suffer failures. For optimum safety, you should use two different backup programs to maintain a minimum of two separate backups.
I'm considering Carbon Copy Cloner, but not sure it does true incremental backups and can restore the system to a state that existed at the time of a previous
CCC does do incremental backups, but restoring to a specific state might not be entirely possible. When a file is added, it is simply added to the clone when CCC runs its next backup. There's no way to know which files were added when, AFAIK. When a file is removed, it is moved from its old location in the clone to an identical path inside a dated folder in the same location as the clone.
Personally, I rely on a combination of TM and CCC. I keep one backup with TM, which lets me go back to any time I want. I also keep several CCC clones of just my user folder (everything else is easy enough to recreate if necessary), with one of them in the safe deposit box at the bank at all times.

Backup software recommendations

Hi!
I'm looking for software to maintain a backup of my pictures. I have had a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Backup, but i also wanted some recommendations.
My scenario is this. I have a workstation at home where i dump my pictures. I also have a complete copy of all the pictures on a second disk on the workstation. I would like the program to recognize that there have been a change and automatically duplicate it to the second disk. It would be nice if it was possible to choose that adding pictures was duplicated, but not removing. In case I delete a picture by accident.
I also keep a third copy on an external disk at work. This I keep updated either by connecting it to my laptop at work and update the backup over the internet, or bring home for bigger changes. So the program need to deal with that as well. That would be a manual routine, but I need to be able to pull the changes from the workstation at home to the laptop at work over internet.
At the moment I'm using git, but I feel that it is a bit outside its main purpose since the repository of images at the moment is about 0.5TB and increasing, consists of mainly big files and the files itself does not change. There is only adding new files.

Don't forget that you can make full clones with the Restore option of Disk Utility.
Which of these (other than Synk, which I have) will make a bootable clone? And, are they all compatible with OS10.8, Mountain Lion?

Recommend Backup Software for OS 10.3?

I need to get some backup software so I can backup only new files and files that have been changed. Can someone recommend a good utility for doing this on OS 10.3?
Thank you!

If you get the downloads through another computer online,
be sure they are the correct stand-alone items; then you
can choose to never go online with the 10.3.x computer.
I have and use a USB thumb drive or flash drive to get
extra files between computers so they don't need to go
and do the same duty in duplicate online; this would also
work to get the actual files you needed via another Mac.
Be sure they are the correct ones, first, of course.
There are no currently supported browsers, for the most
part, for Panther 10.3.9; so secure online browsing is a
thing that may be problematic or issue-prone; yet the
internal server to Support updates, and the Software Update
app can probably be used to get info or the files you'd want.
And you need not install all of the found updates; yet by
now, those in-between and questionable ones would be
fewer than they were in the day they were new. I had a
few issues in Panther (and avoided some, then) in the
updates in-between. So, by now, there should be none.
In one sense, the Software Update app may be helpful
in finding the correct names of the files, then get the
few you actually may need, more manually from Support.
The 10.3.9 Combo, and the last security update, plus any
Java update(s) are likely to include actual useful offline
update materials. A few Panther/Tiger users had an odd
issue with going/staying online after one of the small step
updates to 10.3 at one point, and it was problematic. A
last Combo plus security update may avoid the issue.
This may be a mute issue at this late a date; but may be
worth checking into further, as far as it goes. And most
items made for Panther 10.3 generally were updated as
far as the last full stop 10.3.9; a few required that level.
Good luck & happy computing!

D*mN SilverKeeper - Recommendations Needed 4 Backup Software

My hard drive crashed earlier last week...so everytime I did a full backup using SilverKeeper software...I assume it updated the files that were modified and saw the log of new files it added. Unfortunately, when I restored my system and started putting everything back on the new drive, MY EMAIL, ADDRESS BOOK, ICAL software was not updated as originally thought for ONE ENTIRE YEAR. Thank goodness I decided to copy over my business software data. Old hard drive is gone.
Or can I call Apple support and see if I can still retrieve the old drive?
Similar to Windows or Veritas Backup, is there a utility in Apple that does the backup and checking/updating files? What are some consumer recommendations for backup software?
PS....I love 10.4.6 though

I agree with Superduper. You have various backup options which I've mentioned on my FAQ here:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
As for recovering the data, if it isn't a complete hard drive crash, and just a directory issue, you can try Alsoft Disk Warrior. If it is a hard drive crash, you may be able to salvage information with Prosoft Data Rescue. If that doesn't work a professional data recovery firm may be necessary.
By the way, Silverkeeper works well, though you need to make sure you are using the most current version. If you were and it didn't work, I suggest writing http://www.lacie.com/ about your issue.

Full HD backup before sending in for repair-software recommended/how-to?

Hi all,
I have to send my MacBook 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running 10.4.11 in for a warrantied repair to the CD/DVD drive (MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-857D). It just doesn't want to read discs anymore and has always been a bit finicky. There are a few other issues too like the finder crashing a lot. I've already had one logic board replacement on this machine and have been putting up with the finder issues as it is inconvenient to be without it for a week, but the optical drive issue has to be fixed....anyway...I digress....
Can someone please advise me on what software would allow me to completely back up (clone???) my HD before I send it in for repair? I have a 160gb firewire 400 drive for the task.
I'll probably need some help getting the data from the external to my MacBook when I get it back as well.
Many thanks for any suggestions/help/detailed directions/the lot......

In need of backup software

Hello there. Does anyone have a recommendation for good backup software? I need something that can syncronize some of my folders to an external hard drive. Thank.

My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
5. PsynchX 2.1.1 and RsyncX 2.1 (Freeware)
6. Carbon Copy Cloner (Freeware - 3.0 is a Universal Binary)
The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
2. Toast
3. Impression
4. arRSync
Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.

Need backup software for Seagate external hard drive

I need a little handholding here. I have an iBook G4 running 10.4.10. My husband bought me a Seagate external hard drive to use to back up the hard drive on my iBook. The only problem is that I don't think the external hard drive came with any software. I'm looking for something that I can set once that will automatically back up my hard drive periodically. Does such a thing exist?
Thanks for any advice you can provide.

Hi there-
Most good backup software allows you to schedule backups. I've tried a number of programs and the two best I've found are SuperDuper and Synk.
Both are very user-friendly--good for simple folks like me.
http://www.decimus.net/
http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html
SuperDuper is my favorite because it easily allows you to "clone" your hard drive, giving you a bootable backup in case the worst happens to your computer and you need to restore everything. It's MUCH faster than reinstalling everything. You need to make sure your external hard drive is capable of being booted from, however.
Synk is also very user friendly and you can try it for 30 days for free. I would highly recommend either of these.
Hope this helps.

Exabyte VXA-2e Firewire Tape Drive Software recommendations

Hi all.
I have an old Exabyte VXA-2e Firewire Tape Drive that I keep around to access the old tapes. Moving from computer to computer I eventually started using TimeMachine for backup to SATA Externals. I moved important stuff off of the tapes to get faster access to the stuff I backed up.
I am running out of space again and decided I am going to build or buy some type of NAS box. This will involve buying some more drives ultimately and maybe some new backup software that will run off of a server. I am thinking of just using Time Machine over a network but I haven't decided yet.
Unfortunately while cleaning some drives and getting rid of old software and documents to make more space for new stuff I wiped a system disk that was on the G4 this was running on. The Exabyte VXA-2e Firewire Tape Drive came with included software when I bought it. I am pretty sure it was some light edition of Retrospect but I can't recall. I have the old G4 (not in service minus drives), a Power Mac G5, an iMac, and Mac Pro Tower.
Here is my delema. I want to get the VXA working again as I still have some files on there that I never went through. I would also like to use it for as long as it will run as a redundant backup system. I have run out of space on all the drives I currently have and will most likely just buy an external harddrive but until I get the more expensive NAS up and running I would like to avoid spending any unnecessary funds. Since I can't locate the cd with the driver and software I looked on their site. Retrospect has changed hands several times and there is no availble downloads other than the Utility. Oddly enough I found my CD storage box and I have every other OS, Utility, Script, etc that I have ever used so I am thinking it's lost or fell out of the box during a move.
Can anyone recommend some very inexpensive software that will backup (and control) the tape drive? I am willing to use open source/free alternatives or to buy used software. I thought about an old copy of Retrospect but I can find any. The new stuff looks great but since the minimum will require slapping down about a bill ($100) I figured that I should just use that money to buy an external in the next couple of days while I sort out the bigger more robust NAS plan. I also looked for BRUs lite software but they don't sell it anymore.
BRU is a good product but it's out of the budget for now at least until I figure out the NAS.
I just need some creative thinkers to make some suggestions that I might be able to employ so I can start cleaning off some of the other drives because I plan to use the SATA I, II, and III drives I have to put in the NAS. I will probably use PCIe cards or firewire/usb host cards to ulitize all the drives. You might be wondering why I want to save so much data and it's really simple. I have asset libaries and client work product which I often need to go back to either because they want some element re-done in a fresh way or because I can actually re-use some work product on new projects for other clients. I often take mockups and demos and re-cycle them by submitting them on new projects so I can offer more than one choice to clients during demo submissions.
Anyone got any ideas?

Hi Ivan,
Thanks for taking the time to link to this. It will probably help someone else. Yes you are correct. I believe that it is the full installer. I made this post then went and looked at the box I had. It's Retrospect Express. I probably should have been clearer on that. I believe Retrospect Express is a light edition.
I did try that installer and it doesn't look like the version I was using. For some reason I am thinking it was version 4.x or 5.x Another issue is that the version you linked to required a license. I don't recall if the version I had needed one but if it did I would have kept it with the disk in a disk box I have. It's not in the box.
I also contacted Retrospect and sent them the license and asked if they could help or make a suggestion. Their reply was "The program is not supported anymore and due to change of hands we no longer have records regarding your registration. Please buy the new product"
Another issue is that I had someone help me set it up when I first started using it. I needed to get it up and running before I actually had the time to read the documentation. Dantz' first manual was probably the most confusing manual I have ever read. (Or as my daughter would say "ever, ever, ever, ever" kind of like the way Taylor Swift sings it). ;-)
I suppose I may have to start looking for someone on Craigslist who has an old retired copy they would be willing to sell me. Then maybe I could use the version you linked to. All I need is the ability to control the tape. Read/Write/Erase. I will even forgo the index rebuilding feature for when an index get corrupted until I figure out my NAS box.

Bootable backup software

First of all, what's a bootable backup? I have a WD 320GB Mybook (fire wire/usb) backup drive. WD said that their included software doesn't create a bootable drive. I asked them because I told it to back up everything and it did except for 168 files. I guess I want a bootable drive because if I lost everything, I could restore everything? What do you recommend? Is WD backup software enough? If I need a bootable backup software, what free or low cost one would you recommend? Hope that all makes sense?

Hello! AS has been mentioned a "bootable backup" is a "clone" or "exact copy" of your main drive and one that will be bootable in an emergency. It can be on an external firewire drive or it can be on a separate "volume" of your main drive or reside on a secondary physical drive. SD and CCC have been mentioned but you can also use the Apple Disk Utility to produce one following Kappy's advice. Tom
Kappy's Steps to Produce a bootable clone
Prep external FW drive:
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (journaled, if available) and click on the Erase button. This step can be skipped if the destination has already been freshly erased.
4. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
5. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
6. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
8. Select the destination drive on the Desktop and press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. At the bottom in the Ownership and Permissions section be sure the box labeled "Ignore Permissions on this Volume" is unchecked. Verify the settings for Ownership and Permissions as follows: Owner=system with read/write; Group=admin with read/write; Other with read-only. If they are not correct then reset them.
For added precaution you can boot into safe mode before doing the clone.

The best backup software for mac os 10.4.8?

Hi,
I'm new on mac, I just got tired of PC and windows so I decided to make a change, a really good change.
First of all to say that I've been looking for an answer of this question around the forums, but havn't got what I'm looking for. What I've found is that people prefere freeware, I just want good stuff.
I'm not sure if this is the right forum to place my topic, but is not a bad one either.
Anyway, here is my question.
I need to clone and do incremental backups, but I have to be extremely sure that the software I use is completly trustfull and secure, so I do not care if I have to pay 100€ (not much more thouh), just want to be sure I get everything works right.
I also prefere software that only does clone and backups than a multitask soft.
Well, if u have any question just ask, u're the ones who really know about this things.
Thanks, everything is wellcome here.

Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.0 is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.2 is Intel Mac compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. The current version, 1.5.1, is Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.
OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is significant):
1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
5. PsynchX 2.1.1 and RsyncX 2.1 (Freeware)

Suggestions for Backup Software

Hi, I am looking for backup software that is easy to use, with full backup each time and that is reasonably priced - your recommendations. Thanks - Bob61

Hi
I am looking for the same thing I think. I have a G4 Powerbook and I want a simple backup utility that will backup everything just in case my hard drive corrupts beyond repair. I had a Dantz on my old PowerMac and just hit backup and it would backup everything on the hard drive. I don't want to have to select files, drag them or at all be concerned that I am forgetting to back up some file. I was looking at the Dantz Retrospect V4.1 Express but I don't know if that is the latest, is it good or what. Is the SuperDuper a program that will just do a complete backup of the hard drive, looking for changes each subsequent time and backing all of them up?
Thanks for any help.
Hi Bob61
I've been using SuperDuper for a couple of months now
and really like it. It's priced at around $29 and as
shareware you can try it out first to see if it fits
your needs. It can be set up in a number of ways to
take care of your backup needs and will also do
bootable full backups which is, I guess, what you're
looking for. You can get it here:
