Regarding Backup of Referenced Masters: What Software do you use?

Hi, I have a portion of my library stored on an external drive via referenced masters. I back up these image files to another external drive. Currently I do this manually - I just copy the folders using the Finder. But I'm interesting in a program that can automatically backup these files incrementally and keep the backup up to date. What does everybody here use? Lacie Silverkeeping? Thanks.

The referenced masters are stored on an external drive, not the internal drive (which is backed up with Time Machine). Is it even possible to use Time Machine on an external drive?
Sure. Time Machine can backup whichever hard drives are plugged in to the machine on which Time Machine is running. This is to be distinguished from drives attached to the network, via Airport Extreme, for example. Time Machine won't get those.
Also the backup drive I want to use for the referenced masters is different that the Time Machine drive.
Gotcha. That obviously rules out Time Machine.

  • What software do you use for rich media ad development?

    I am a flash designer that would like to start developing rich media ads. My my full-time job, I am designing and developing banner ads but they are just normal banners with clickTags and flashing buttons.
    I would like to make them more interesting and widget like too, passing data via the database or allowing users to play and interact some how.
    How do you think is the best way for me to learn more about rich media adds? Should I try a trial membership with a place like Eyeblaster? I have heard about their plug-in for Flash that allow you to develop rich media. But is that a good system? Do you know others? What is it like. And do you normally just get into rich media ad dev because of clients or is it mainly used by ad agencies? Also, for those who use it at work or on banners, did you recommend / purchase it or was it purchased by your company? Are you a designer or developer? Does it work with AS 2.0 or AS 3.0 or both?
    Thx for reading and any replies thanks so much!
    Ms.Lee

    Most web advertising is still done with AS 2 because usually an on release event handler is required for tracking the clicks.
    A lot of rich media ads are produced by agencies. Or if a website sells banner ads, the company usually purchases the software for the in-house designer/developer to use and charges clients more for rich media ads. Companies like Eyeblaster usually charge based on the file size of the rich media ad, so they usually cost more to serve than regular old banner ads (and can take a lot longer to create) which is why they are more expensive for the client. Some clients want more than will fit or look good in a banner in which case rich media can be a good solution.

  • Any business users depositing checks digitally?  What software are you using

    I am using my Mac for a small buisness.  My bank wants me to digitally deposit checks.  My bank tells me the software only works with Windows.  Will I have to run dual op sys on my IMAC or is there another way? I am not technically savvy so am leary of loading the Windows operating system to my IMAC.  Thanks.

    Here's a recent story with links to both:

  • Why can't I install iTunes on windows RT? Is Microsoft deciding what software I can use?

    Why can't I install iTunes on Windows RT? Is Microsoft deciding what software I can use?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Theoretically, Microsoft is deciding what apps you can install. In Windows RT, you can only install apps from the Windows Store and they must be ARM-based, things that Apple and iTunes don't meet, so you can't use iTunes in Windows RT

  • What software should I use to create a family budget?

    I use my Mac mostly for internet and word processing so I know I'm not touching 90% of the functionality. I want to create a household budget but the template in my ('09?) version of Numbers is not robust enough. Are there any suggestions on how to create a household budget? What software should I use? Thank you!

    There are dozens of apps designed to help with household budgets, but few are free. May I suggest you look for apps that have a free trial version, and try them out before spending money on something you may not like:

  • What software do I use to make cd/dvd labels?

    I enjoyed using iDVD to put together a slideshow for an 80th birthday party.  Now I want to share the slideshow on dvd's, but what software should I use to make dvd labels and jewel case covers?

    I agree 100% with Klaus1. You don't want to use stick on labels. If you have an Epson R series printer you can print directly to discs with it. 
    For printing on discs or making case inserts/covers one application that I like is Discus.  Here are some of the designs I've created and used with it:

  • What software can be used to manipulate photos on original ipad

    what software can be used to manipulate photos on original ipad

    There are a number of photo apps available in the iTunes app store e.g. the free Adobe Photoshop Express can do some basic editing (you won't get anything as sophisticated as Photoshop on a Mac/PC), and with iOS 5 the Photos app will allow you to :
    Crop, rotate, enhance, and remove red-eye without leaving the Photos app
    Though I'm not entirely sure whether that will apply just to photos taken with the iPad or all photos in the Photos app.

    What software can I use on my new Mac that no longer supports "AppleWorks"? To easily transfer my database for mailmerge.

    Two thoughts:
    (1)     It is possible that your Adobe software was the result of belonging to a now-discontinued Adobe Print Service Provider program where for a certain annual membership fee, print service providers were provided with (a) both a Windows and Macintosh license to the Adobe print-oriented software products (such as InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Acrobat) and (b) special direct product support as well as the ability to put your name on Adobe's website as a member of this program. The program ended over a year ago if I remember correctly.
    (2)     You may wish to contact Adobe Customer Support (not Technical Support) and see if they can track down any and all licenses associated with your company. If you have the names of the former employees who worked with this software, it would be helpful. Likewise, if you were a member of the discontinued Adobe Print Service Provider program, you may have some options for upgrading/updating the software you have.
    Unfortunately, you cannot get any more definitive information about your situation on these forums.
    Good luck.

  • Encoded my surround files in compressor and now need to author to DVD. What software can I use?

    I've created my AC3 file from my 6 surround audio files along with my video in compressor. What software can I use to author my surround video to DVD? I have FCPX but I don't have DVDSP or toast. Any suggestions?

    Although I don't use it, I'm pretty sure Toast will treat the file properly. (But I would go on the Roxio forums to check.)
    If confirmed, that would probably be your lowest cost solution.
    Otherwise, if you know someone who has either Final Cut Studio or Adobe Production Suite you could use DVD Studio Pro or Encore.
    Good Luck.
