One more time...what back up app works best?

I was just about to buy the license for SuperDuper, but saw that there were several bad reviews.
What I want is what SuperDuper says it will do; after initial back up, it will just update the information that has been changed or added on subsequent back ups. But, as mentioned, users complained that it doesn't work well in that app.
What else is out there that people love, and why do you love it?
thanks

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)
7. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
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.

My iphone has broken and I had songs that I had purchased on there that I had not yet backed up on my computer. apparently you can download the tracks one more time free of charge does anybody know how??

how do you re download tracks that are on a broken iphone???

apparently you can download the tracks one more time free of charge does anybody know how??"
Not true. You get one and only one download.
In some instances, itunes has allowed another download to a few. This is not the norm.
You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.
Hope all goes well.

HT5552 Apple decline payment method for apple ID (credit card VISA) after 2 weeks of active using it. And did it one more time

Few mothes ago I registered my Apple ID.Payment method chose credit card VISA. It allowed me to make purchases and download apps. But after 2 weeks it said that my payment method was declined and I have to register and pay 1$ once again. So I registered one more time with the same credit card, made several downloads and purchases and after 2-3 weeks the situation was the same. My payment method was declined. What is the reason?

I have to pay one more time!

Hi!
I have bought the album called "Disc-Overy" from Tinie Tempah. I did reset my iPhone and set it up as a new iPhone. I also synced with another iTunes library. Now iTunes ask me to pay for the album again! I aldo bought the ringtone called "Levels" of Avicii and I have to pay for that one more time too!
And when it comes to app. I downloaded iCopter from appstore. I bought the pro version in-app and when i try to do the same again with this newly setup iPhone I also have to pay for this one more time! Please help me!

I've had the same problem with the albums when switching iPhones.
Usually when you click purchase in the app- or itunes store it will start the download but will then give you the message: "You've already bought this item, do you want to download it again?". In that case you won't be charged twice, but in my expirience that won't show up untill you're willing to make the purchase.
Best thing would be to just sync the new iPhone with iTunes if that already contains your purchased apps, books and music.

There are two separate PDF Expert versions on App Store: PDF Expert for iPad and PDF Expert for iPhone. PDF Expert for iPad differs from iPhone version and both versions are not free.

You can still download as much as you can only a lot slower during peak times off peak will not be restricted.
Thanks for this explanation. I had taken it that it was at all times.
As I said in the first place it will be great if they throttle me to 1Mb at peak times as it will be better half the time than I am getting anyway!!!!!!!!!

How to download one more time the purchased content?

I purchased yesterday the OST of Fast Five, and unexpectedly I deleted it from my Mac. How to access it one more time?

If you are in a country where you can re-download music, and if it is still in the store, then it should show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes for re-downloading. If you aren't in a country where music can currently be re-downloaded then you will need to try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

What size still images work best for iMovie to create a book trailer?

I'm trying to create a book trailer using still images and text in iMovie. I purchased some 280px images from gettyimage and find they are too small. When viewed on a full screen the images are degraded. What size still image works best to make a book trailer in iMovie that will be posted on You Tube. Thanks in advance. I am an iMovie newbie.

iM supports a max. export resolution of 1920x1080 pixel ..
if you need to add Ken Burns effects, res should be, of course, higher..
no such thing as 'dpi' with video, only absolute pixels count ..
due to the many conversion processes happening on import, processing and export, care for as less compression as possible for the imported files ..
this YT-demo is done in iM09 with some pics from my Lib, native res of originals is ~6Mpix/~3MB size/jpegs ..
ahh, and Welcome betinski61 to the  iM boards ...

Time machine back up not working

Hi, I recently had to put in new hard drive in my macbook pro because old one failed. I plugged in my external hard drive to get all my files back, then used time machine option because thats what I had been doing before with my external hard drive although I had not backed it up for 2 months. That worked fine and my computer looks the same but when I tried to do a time machine back up like usual it says there is not enough space. When I open time machine there is only one back up. please help?

The backup drive has malfunctioned and corrupted itself. If that has ever happened before, or if it ever happens again, replace the drive. You may want to consider replacing it anyway for the safety of your data.
You should start another backup now, if you don't already have one, on a different drive. One backup is not enough to be safe.
If you choose to keep using the problem drive (which I don't recommend), turn Time Machine OFF temporarily in its preference pane, then unmount and remount the backup volume. Launch Disk Utility, select the volume, and run Repair Disk. That operation may take several hours. If it doesn't solve the problem, you'll have to erase the volume and start over. Don't do that unless you have at least one other complete backup. Remember to turn TM back ON.
If the backup drive is internal or on an eSATA bus, and Disk Utility displays a message about a "S.M.A.R.T. error," the drive has irreparably failed and must be replaced immediately. You can't go on using it. A drive connected via USB, FireWire, or Thunderbolt doesn't show a S.M.A.R.T. status.

"Attention required | cloudfare.... one more step," what is it???

In the past few days, when I try to open some pages from google search, it leads me to the correct url but it first shows a page that says ATTENTION REQUIRED | CLOUDFARE
One more Step
Please complete the security check to access www.athriftymrs.com ... which was the website i was trying to visit.
and then it asks me to fill the captcha and something with a yield icon that says what can i do to prevent this in the future and it gives me a tip that I should use a malware scanner.
This is the link i tried to visit http://www.athriftymrs.com/2013/11/how-to-make-your-towels-fluffy-again.html
I never proceeded to enter the captcha but I really want to know what is going on. Because on windows, it supposedly means that you have malware and you should delete or change some host files.... but Im not really sure with the mac os X 10.7.5 tho.
HELP! btw, this happened on a couple of other websites too...

Well! I am not a tech guy. I am just a tech enthusiast and an end user of Apple products. I am a doctor but I do like to play with software, hardware and networking stuff that I get exposed to.
When I replied to for the first time, as above, I'd suggested you guys to use safari extensions to detect whether any website is a problematic one or not. After that (or maybe even before that reply), I personally have encountered cloudflare.com for many times. I think until now, I didn't realize what you guys were actually wanted to ask, in regards to cloudflare.com.
Before today, this thing didn't flash in my mind because of the following 2 reasons.
1. Even though, I've encountered cloudflare.com for at least 20/30 times in the past 2 months, I've never seen it as a problem (as you guys did). The reason behind me encountering that site (asking me to verify if I was human through a captcha) was too obvious to me after my 1st or 2nd encounter with cloudflare. Why? ... I am going to explain that below.
2. The cloudflare.com link that somebody have posted above, leads to the homepage of the cloudflare.com. And it is not the same page that we encounter while going to some other websites, e.g. athriftymrs.com link posted by @mh2khin above.
These 2 mistakes above, kept me away from understanding you guys' real concern.
SOLUTION to your problem (I've discovered this though my own encounters and don't know if this is posted elsewhere).
This website is not a threat to your security. It is not a malicious software or a survey loop or a website that wants to sell you something.
Actually, the website sees you guys as threat to the security and services of its own and its clients. And that's the reason behind cloudflare.com asking you to enter captcha solution to confirm that you are a human and not a bot.
Just google cloudflare.com and you will know what it is and what services it provides.
I really don't know the proper tech terms but, what I've understood by myself from the first/second encounter with the website is that coludflare.com is a web hosting service. It is a cloud based server or something of that sort. So, when you want to visit a website that is hosted on cloudflare.com servers, it is cloudflar.com's responsibility to protect the data and service of cloudflare and its clients. Also, by asking the captcha thingy, cloudflare.com security is trying to avoid automated traffic attack though bots.
Ok, now I understood that the website is just trying to protect itself.
But, BIG QUESTION: WHY ME ? (in you guys' cases ME = you)???
Well, I have a sure-hot answer for "WHY ME" (ME= TimbukTrue)? And most likely, it is also the case when ME= mh2khin or dipakcg, etc.
It is because I was experimenting with VPNs or Proxy server bypasses or a TOR Browser, when I encountered the problem.
As I've tried to explain above, the cloudflare.com is a web hosting service. It is trying to protect itself and its clients.
Even though, VPN / Proxy server / TOR are highly secure services that protect my identity, their exit IPs are limited in numbers. While the number of subscribers they carry could be any number. It is most certain that the IP address that cloudflare.com getting signals from (via VPN/Proxy/TOR) is used by thousands of people around the world everyday. Thus, cloudflare.com's safety mechanism sees it as a threat and wants you to prove yourself as an alive human before letting you in and increasing incoming and outgoing traffic as well as accessing data stored on their servers.
Sorry for this big essay, but, as I've mentioned earlier, I am not a tech guy. So, I couldn't keep it short and sweet.
Anyways.
I can say for sure that cloudflare.com is safe and good website. In my above post, I have mentioned a safari extension named 'WOT' (Web Of Trust). I have attached a picture of WOT rating of cloudflare.com to support my belief that cloudflare.com is safe to visit.
Check the reputation of cloudflare.com at https://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/cloudflare.com
If you still don't want to see cloudflare.com on your way to your desired website, try to go thru a unique end user IP (e.g. home broadband connection) and not through a professional bypass service (e.g. VPN, Proxy, TOR etc.).
I hope this helps you guys.

I bought a photoshop CS5(for two users). If I add one more user, what can I do?

I bought a photoshop CS5, and it indicated for two users only. If I want to add one more user, then what can I do?

Buy another license.
You can only activate two copies of the software and they're supposed to be for the same person and not used simultaneously.

One more time...what back up app works best?
