Wow, looks like Chronosync is exactly what I'm looking for. A flexible and configurable back up sofware. Does it work with HDs with any kind of file system? Cause I've got one external HD in HFS+ and the other one is FAT32 to be able to plug it into PC and MACs... Thanks Mr Diablo!

That's really strange. Have you tried looking in spotlight?! (that little magnifying glass icon on the top right corner in the menu bar) Dashboard should be in your applications folder, but you may have moved it somewhere else... Also, sometimes (at least in my case) the applications folder...

Thanks Diablo! The thing about doing the drag and drop is that is tedious, as (correct me if I'm wrong) you say don't replace older items, it won't copy anything(?!). Not really sure about this. (This may happen in windows actually...). And when you have to copy around 100GB instead of 40GB is...

Awesome! Thanks MisterMe for the info; I didn't know that, but still I wanna wipe it out. And also thanks a lot djackmac. Really valuable advice. It makes perfect sense. Ta! One last question. My external HDD is 1TB, formatted in HFS+, but I've got around 500GB of data on it. I want to make a...

Mmm, that sounds like a good plan. So, Basically, I do the HD image into my external HD, then reinstall the OS from the disks, and then , from that image just copy what i need to my new installation. Is that right? (sorry, but I'm a bit nerdy in all this and I don't wanna screw it up) If so...

Apparently some of them don't work under SL. Shame! The laptop runs fine. Basically is been 2 years of learning in the mac environment, and I have installed loads of shite on it, and then "unistall" them, but they'll keep using space in the HD for preferences... So I wanna start from...

It's software for Live Sound Engineering, like digital mixing desks offline and online controllers, Crossover controllers, networking audio software , RTA's... etc

Well, unfortunately, some software i use for my work is not compatible yet with snow leopard, so I can't really. In my Industry, software updates are not very frequent, unless there's a new product coming out...

BTW, I forgot. I'm running Leopard 10.5.8 in a Intel MacBook (3,1) Pro 2.2 GHz core2duo

Hi! I'm wondering if you can make back ups from iTunes. In my case, I've got the the Library in my external HD, as the internal is only 120gb, but I'd like to do some back ups to my second external HD from time to time. Is that possible? I can't find any options in iTunes to do that...

Hi folks! I'm new posting here, but an old follower of the forum. Thanks for all the valuable information and support I found here! Ok, so I'm thinking to delete reinstall the OSX deleting wiping out the HDD and start from scratch. But I don't want to start from scratch in everything. I...

I can answer both of your questions. 1. The iTunes thing is normal, there's nothing wrong. It displays both artists and albums in the same space and keeps swapping that information from time o time. Keep an eye on it for 30 seconds and you'll see how it displays the artist, then the album...
