Pref Setter makes accessing your preferences easy with the “ Open Domain Quickly” window, listing your preference files and those in the /Library/Preferences domain. Very useful for setting those “hidden” preference settings that aren't available directly in an application. The progress indicator stops for a while, then continuesīackup is not able to show the progress while checking files using the UNIX command rsync, that's why it isn't updating the progress bar.Pref Setter is an application used to edit plist ( Property LIST) files, geared towards viewing / editing Mac OS X's preference files. To resolve this issue open /Applicvations/Utilities/Terminal.app and type 'crontab -r', then hit Enter This may happen if you downgrade to an earlier version of iBackup. Open the Profile Settings menu and chose the option "Use ditto for every backup" IBackup uses the UNIX command ditto for the first backup and rsync for the following You can use an utility like File Buddy or you install the Developer Tools and run the command '/Developer/Tools/SetFile -a v /filePath/fileName' in Terminal.app The invisible flag is set to true (I have no clue why, but is not an iBackup related issue, it's a copy issue: link) This could happen if your external disk uses a special format, e.g. Use the option 'Backup to Windows' in the UNIX tab of the Settings menuīackup failure when trying to back up files (located on a windows 2003 server) which had spotlight comments in their info dialog boxĬhanging the backup Profile's UNIX preferences to "Rsync for every backup" clears up this issue and back up everything, including spotlight commented files. This is not a iBackup specific bug, it's a known bug by Apple: "After further investigation it has been determined that this is a known issue, which is currently being investigated by engineering" (The Bug Reporting Team, Apple Developer Connection) Happens if you're backing up to a SMB/CIFS (Windows) server or FAT32, NTFS formated disks
IBackup is deleting and copying all files when backing up to a SMB (Windows) server even they haven't been modified Reset iBackup (see topic 1 for procedure). Often occurrs when backing up to a server, just change the rsync command from '-avE' to '-rlptoDvE' (as -a does -rlptgoD) as the group setting gives the error. Set the administrator password in iBackup's Preferences You could force iBackup to use the admin password. Use this option only if you get error messages like "Permission denied" Note: even if you're the administrator you don't have administrator privileges, this is why you have sometimes to type in your administrator password This error occurs when iBackup tries to backup data and you don't have the privileges Open the file ~/Library/Preferences/ch. and set the value of item "Set Bounds" to false Note: use a editor like Property List Editor which is included in the developer package on your OS X bundle or a similar one that could be found as freeware on the web (like Pref Setter) Run the command "crontab -r" in /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.appĭownload and reinstall the newest version of iBackup Open Keychain Access (Applications -> Utilities) and delete the item "iBackup" (if it has one) Example afp://169.0.0.1/myUsername/testĭelete ~/Library/Preferences/ch.ĭelete ~/Library/Application Support/iBackup Workaround for 7.3.2 or earlier: remove the admin password in iBackup -> Preferences -> tab Generalīuttons in preferences and settings don't show bordersĪdd afp:// for Mac or smb:// for Windows server to the address. iBackup 7.4 or later doesn't allow you to set an administrator password. As this is not available in 10.7 the error is thrown. Issue: if you specify the administrator password in iBackup, iBackup tries to save it in the Keychain Scripting.app. Keychain Scripting.app seems not to be available on 10.7. Install it and change the system settings back to original Set Allow applications downloaded from: Everywhere Open System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> tab General
IBackup is asking to restore data after starting upġ0.8.x, 10.9.x - If you get an error opening the latest version of iBackup in Mountain Lion OS 10.8.x or 10.9.x saying it's from an unidentified developer
