Pictures Backup Methods?

What methods do you use to backup your work while you are on the road? (Computer and WiFi is NOT available) Do you use a secondary cards in your camera? Thanks!

Hey Chris,
Sorry to hear of your woes. I too have the 1stGen MB and have had it repaired twice(RSD). Both in the summer of '06. It has since been fantastic.
One thing comes to mind though with your isses and that is ... How much RAM are you running? Without enough RAM and using RAM intensive apps, you can really run a HDD into the ground. Apple has strived to make these small and thin which tends to get things a little squished in these confines. If you are running MAX RAM then I guess my point is moot and you just use your MB harder than I do.
Hope things get better for you and your MB.

Backup method in Noarchive mode

Hi All,
I have one question regarding backup methods. I have my all database in Oracle11gR2 in Noarchive mode. I want to define some backup method but no idea which one is preferable in noarchive mode. Cold backup is again not possible. can I take tablespace/datafile backup ? Is there any other option which I can perform in Noarchive mode or temporarily put the database in Archive and perform the backup?
Please guide me.
Thanks...

Hi All,
First of all thanks for your reply and suggestions. I have not lost the interest but reading and thinking on all your suggestion.
About expdp yes I think this is the only option I was thinking before post a question here. but as we know this is should not consider as a backup.
For Archive mode - this is R&D database and we have disk space issue if we can not put database in Archive mode.
For COld backup - again not possible because single database uses in different time zone so DB should be up and running almost all the time.I think the operative word there is "almost". How big is the database? How long does it take to shut it down, back it up, and bring it back up? Unless the database is really big (why would an r&d database be really big, unless r&d was specific to VLDB) you should be able to do the job during the guy's lunch break. Even for an r&d database, you might be able to justify noarchivelog, but you will really feel the pain if you get a physically corrupted database and all you have is an export.
>
The only one option which I am not aware is what about John speicified. John can you please suggest or forward me some link with some backup example for more details. this is really helpful to me. From your suggested link I understand this is possible but after put the database in suspend mode how do I copy the Tablespace/datafiles - just simple Linux cp command or some other options also?

Backup schedule will not use faster backup method

Hello,
I am currently using Windows Server Backup in Windows Server 2008 R2 to make a copy of our Exchange server. When I initially set the schedule it was configured to use the normal backup method, but after noticing that it was taking an exceedingly long time
I went into the Performance settings and selected the Faster backup option.
The faster method works great if I use the Backup Once option, but for some reason the scheduled backups still try to run the normal, non-incremental backup. I can't find where to change this in the schedule.
**I know that the first time you run the faster backup it needs to make the full backup. It has done this(it takes about 3 days) and every time I have run it since using the Backup Once option it has worked fine(takes about 1 hour). Once again, the issue
is that the schedule will not use the faster option and tries to use the normal backup every time.
Thank you

I am backing up to a network location. When I use the Backup Once option and assign it to use a network location it is able to do the Faster backup. It doesn't make sense that the faster backup works when I do it manually but doesn't work when if it is
initiated by the schedule. They are both going over the network.

Picture backup is also part of the workflow

Hi,
I'm very happy with all new features of v1.1. But I think picture backup is also part of the workflow. It would be very clever to keep track (from inside LR catalog) of where pictures have been backed-up. You'll find solutions like CDFinder/CDWinder, where you build catalogs of CDs/DVDs..., and other like Archive Creator, where the CD/DVD comes with an html catalog embedded. Well, just do both ! LR is allready able to create html galleries, it has everything for handling files and folders. What is missing ? : just one field for a media serial number (DVD# or harddisk#...) and a burning capability.
Anyway that's great what has been done till now. Keep on !

FULL RECOMMENDED BACKUP METHOD

I did the following:
Logged out of both Skype accounts, quit both, and checked no Skype process running.
Copied everything from C:\Users\[my name]\AppData\Roaming\Skype to my external drive, including the main.db files for both accounts.
Uninstalled Skype.
Installed SkypeSetupFull.exe (not SkypeSetup.exe) from Download.com.
Copied everything back from my external drive to C:\Users\[my name]\AppData\Roaming\Skype, including the main.db files for both accounts.
Logged into both accounts again.
Is this all data?
Is it the optimal backup method?
Favorites doesn't have any contacts now.
I did have custom lists for contacts, but haven't now.
I don't see any call history or have anything under Recent Conversations.
Options are their defaults.
My unused credit isn't displayed top left next to my name, though it is in My Account.
This is the case for both accounts.
I installed Database Browser & DB Browser for SQLite, but wasn't technically-minded enough to know how to use them.
I've come across software that may help in future, but I thought Skype might have been designed to make the job easier than this.
I'd be really pleased if anyone could help. Replies to this might answer many other people's backup questions too.
Andrew.

56 views and no solution?! I'm amazed that Skype doesn't have Backup & Restore in the Options, or even tell us the optimal backup method.
Do moderators not even know the answer?

CUCM - Supported Backup method

Hi !
What are the VMware backup supported by CUCM and other collaborative applications. In doc-wiki it's mentioned till CUCM 10.0 only .
Any other document which will officially confirm that whether it will support or not ?
Thanks in Advance !!!

Hi,
For UC applications, vm snapshots are not supported and the only supported backup method for CUCM is DRF backup. VM snapshots might lead to performance issues. You could refer below document for more details.

If I turned off picture backup on iPhone, is it possible to restore the pictures saved before the settings change?

Hi,
Anyone know if iCloud keeps older backups?
If I turned off picture backup on iPhone, is it possible to restore the pictures saved before the settings change?
Thanks.

No. but restoring from backup will if hey are in a backup
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Recommendations for OneDrive Backup Methods

So my company just switched over to Office365, and so far things are pretty good. I'm looking to utilize the OneDrive features as a replacement for our individual user drives, currently housed on our server. My issue is this:
1. Microsoft doesn't recommend using OneDrive as a backup method, therefore I will need to back these drives separately from OneDrive.
2. According to Microsoft's site, it's not supported or recommended to change the location of OneDrive, so it's forever on the local drive of the user's computer.
With these issues taken in to account. How am I supposed to backup OneDrive if every drive is on that individual user's computer? It's an administrative nightmare to manually point everything to a server location for easier backup access since users have
different schedules and some will shut their computers down at night (when a backup would take place) while others don't.
So, for anyone who has done this already, how do you manage the backups?
Thanks!

Backup methods and external hard drive questions

I usually copy files and photos to DVDs but wonder if that's enough and the most efficient method to back up. So I purchased a Seagate 1TB external hard drive. Here are my questions:
- What is the best way to copy all my data to this hard drive?
- Is it necessary to copy everything?
- Is it possible to partition the external hard drive?
- Is it possible to use this hard drive to copy data from more than one computer, for instance, my powerbook and a PC laptop? If so, how?
Any information on this would be so appreciated!

Here are some suggestions for backup:
Backup Software Recommendations
Carbon Copy Cloner
Data Backup
Deja Vu
Silver Keeper
SuperDuper!
Synchronize Pro! X
Synk Pro
Synk Standard
Tri-Backup
Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files.
You can partition the drive if you need to, but that will depend upon why you would need to partition the drive.
Personally, I would clone your startup volume to the external drive. You can do this with any of the referenced software as well as by using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can then incrementally update the clone using a backup utility.
It would be possible to backup more than one computer in which case you would need to partition the drive. Backing up a Windows machine, however, would require partitioning the drive using MBR and formatting it FAT32 (MSDOS).
For clarification do you really have a PowerBook (PPC machine) or a MacBook (Intel?)

External Backup Method - Alternate procedure

I normally do a backup of my Macintosh HD partition to an external drive using SD (all files to an image on external drive) and also do a backup of BOOTCAMP when within Win 7 x64 using Acronis True Image (again using all files option to a single file image).
Naturally both procedures above are executed using 'file by file' backup which is quicker than sector by sector backup. I have a 1TB WD Scorpio Blue stuffed in the Macbook Pro with apprx 700GB partitioned for Mac OS 10.6.5 and the remaining 300GB allocated to BOOTCAMP, the external backup drive is also 1TB with equally matched sized partitions
I would prefer to change my backup/copy method to just copy the 'entire disk' within the Macbook pro and mirror that to the external disk of the same size, a snap-shot mirror in one foul swoop with no messing about between two different OS's as stated above.
What would be the best procedure for this?
Would it involve booting externally from my OS X SL DVD disk and then running a disk copy within the utility? Best practice suggestions appreciated.

I have indeed had three drives with hardware failure already and another three or more instances where the data and/or structure of the data on the drive, i.e. B-Tree file index structure on a drive, had become corrupted and in some cases could not be repaired by any utility software as it was beyond fixing. First drive hardware failure was a desktop Lacie d2 but luckily it was just one of the connection interfaces that failed (firewire 800), fortunately it had a triple interface and I was able to salvage the data through the USB-2 interface only, this was probably a good thing as the drive was excessively noisy anyway and therefore may not have lasted much longer. Second drive to have hardware problems was a portable WD MyPassport Essential 1TB, for some reason this produced a fault when only a few months old and was not recognised by the OS, however bizarrely if I turned the unit upside down and laying it flat (as these drives are not the standing-up type being portable) and then plugging it back into the Mac, it would then work! Because of this I then got a portable Seagate GoFlex 1TB ultra portable in order to transfer the data from the upside-down WD MyPassport Essential and then take that back to the store, however this turned out to be the worst mistake because the Seagate GoFlex 1TB Ultra portable completely and entirely failed after only a mere 4 weeks of careful use,it would not appear at all on the desktop and no software could help it with some reporting a hardware failure code. It's worth pointing out that a desktop Western Digital MyBook Studio 1TB drive that I've had for some time now has been fine, I've had the MyBook Studio before and during the problems encountered with the two small mobile drives I'v had mentioned above and the MyBook Studio continues to perform well (even with the taxing task imposed by Super Duper when using the convert image to Read-Only mode for backing up all files - you can usually hear the drive become very noisy with the read-write head going ballistic as it converts & compares)
From the responses to this post I can see there's quite a lot to bare in mind when doing a sector by sector backup, such as replicating file-system errors or damaged data from any bad blocks, non defragmentation. I usually do a verify/repair & permissions repair first, as well as to clean up the system with utility software that runs the Mac daily/weekly & monthly housekeeping scripts in one go, the clearing of logs, resetting and emptying of all browsers and by then some automated background utility has completed it's full disk scan in the background for any bad blocks. To be honest I'm looking forward to the day I can affordably buy a decent 1TB SSD to eliminate the mechanical wear & tear factor with improvements increasing with the performances, wear levelling management, MTBF (mean time before failure - usually 2 million hours/228 years, for decent ones), transfer rates and power saving gains. OWC sell what appears to be a very decently specified 480GB SSD and soon they may have a 1TB version with lower future pricing per GB. Must point out though that Pure Silicon have had a One terabyte 1TB SSD SATA 2.5" 9.5mm MLC (multi layer cell type) drive for 2 years now since January 2009 when it was announced and the even more vastly superior SLC (single layer cell type) at an unheard of 500GB two years ago, but these are for military applications as well as medical, government and specialist enterprise server applications.. so they wont sell you one, but consumer companies are catching up.

Anyway, I've been going off subject a little myself here so in light of the different methods available, I think what I'm kinda looking for was a method of just backing up the whole drive in one go without having to do so from within the two separate OS's installed. Also this would be useful if or when I eventually get a 1TB SSD and therefore transfer the Mac OS partition and Bootcamp Windows partition straight over without upsetting them in case there would be problems using other methods. It's obviously not that straight forward doing sector backups, so I will have to experiment when I get another drive. Also being put-off with the failures I've had from previous external drives I'm therefore considering the RAID 1 disk mirroring route for my next external drive (cost permitting though).

Best backup method? / copying iphoto library to alternate Mac iphoto

Since Iphoto '09 no longer keeps the .IMG photo files in the Pictures directory, do you export all photos to folders to get the .IMG files back online? Then you back them up?
I was going to back the .IMG files up to a cd.
I have some DVDs, so I don't know if that is more sufficient with more disk space capacity. I could write them to a DVD.
Since Iphoto is not saving/storing .IMG files automatically anymore, then I suppose I should also back the Iphoto library file to cd or DVD.
Additionally, we are a Mac family with 3 other Macs. I was thinking that I could back the photos up by putting the Iphoto library onto one of them. When I shared my Iphoto library on our home network I did it in read only format. I went onto the other Mac and moved its Iphoto library out of the way. Then I tried to copy the main shared Iphoto library over to this Mac's hard drive. It would not let me.
I told the second Mac's Iphoto to use the library on the original Mac. It said that it was a different version of Iphoto and would have to update the library. Again I had my Iphoto library shared in Read-only mode. I allowed the update to occur. The photos sync'd to the second Mac Iphoto.
Then I couldn't use my iphoto library on the original machine. It actually changed the shared file system. I ordered and installed ILife/Iphoto '09 on both machines. I can now access all of my photos within Iphoto on the original system. But since I cannot copy the shared Iphoto library over to the hard drive of the second Mac, I am unsure how to proceed in using the second Mac as a backup for the Iphoto library.
I suppose I would want all undeleted photos backed up with whatever the latest version of the pictures is. It just takes a while to back up to cd, and I have to break it up to fit on multiple cd's since I have a 5GB library. That's why I thought I could back them up to the other system.
Also my computer, since I upgraded to Iphoto '09 is very slow if Iphoto is open. So I suspect I must be reaching some limit on the size of the library. I am concerned I may loose all my photos so I want to back up before that happens.
Thanks

beccah
Since Iphoto '09 no longer keeps the .IMG photo files in the Pictures directory, do you export all photos to folders to get the .IMG files back online? Then you back them up?
I'm sorry but this makes no sense. What do you mean by a .IMG file? That's a suffix you can find on a disk image and iPhoto has simply never imported or managed such files.
By ".IMG file", do you mean your Photos?

Backup Method

I am looking for the best way to backup the many pictures I have in iPhoto5 so that they are readily useable in iPhoto. I see out of iPhoto that photos are backed up in literally hundreds of folders that have no indication of the contents of the folders. I essentially hop to somehow create an iPhoto Library on the backup disk that can either be used as a stand alone or accessed through iPhoto when the disc is in the drive.

HI dan,
This is from the iPhoto Help menu:
Creating your own CDs and DVDs for viewing in iPhoto
If you have an Apple-supported CD-RW or DVD-R drive, you can create your own CDs and DVDs to archive your photos. This process is called "burning" because when you write information to a disc (that is, save information on the disc), your drive "burns" the files onto it with a laser.
IMPORTANT: Use iPhoto's burn feature only to archive your photos and albums for viewing in iPhoto. If you want to create a disc to be viewed on a Windows computer or by a photo processing company, you must use the Burn Disc command in the Finder. (See Related Topics below.)
To burn your own CD or DVD:
Select the photo library, albums, or individual photos you want to burn to a disc.
Choose Share > Burn.
Insert a CD-RW disc or a blank CD-R or DVD-R disc into your drive.
Disc information appears at the bottom of the iPhoto viewing area. The green area on the disc icon represents the amount of disc space your photos require.
If necessary, type a new name for the disc in the Name field.
Click the Burn button.
Click the Burn button in the Burn Disc dialog.
It may take several minutes to burn the disc. You can cancel the burn by clicking the Stop button next to the progress bar, but if you're using a CD-R disc, you might not be able to use the CD after canceling.

Backup method for Application Servers in 11i

Hi :
EBS version: 11.5.10.CU2 - Linux 86
I am planning to do an upgrade on the production system and wanted to take a complete backup of the EBS Environment. In the past I have always done a online backup of the application servers. I was wondering if there is any drawback in doing this. Can any one confirm if this is the correct method and if not why a cold backup is preferred?
Regards,
Bala

I was wondering if there is any drawback in doing thisAs long as the backup is taken successfully and you are able to test this backup with no issues then you should be OK.
Can any one confirm if this is the correct method and if not why a cold backup is preferred?Cold backup is preferred because is more consistent. If you can afford downtime go with the cold backup, otherwise the online backup is your only option (make sure you test the backup and have a good backup/restore strategy).
Thanks,
Hussein
