Backup for your Mac
Screenshots
To survive the theft or crash of your Mac, you need to make sure you have backups of your most important files. BackityMac, developed by Whimsplucky, is a trial version backup program designed for Mac users. It falls under the category of Security & VPN and the subcategory of Encryption.
BackityMac allows you to select the files you consider most important and save them in a disk image (dmg). The program offers a simple menu view where you can check the files you want to backup, such as Apple Mail files, iCal calendars, or iPhoto and iTunes libraries. You can also choose to save the files on a CD or DVD.
One notable feature of BackityMac is its ability to import music stored on your iPod back into your iTunes library, in case you've lost it. However, it is important to note that BackityMac does have some limitations. It won't clone your hard drive, meaning you may forget to backup certain files. Additionally, it doesn't support incremental backups, so you'll need to start from scratch every time you want to save new files.
Overall, BackityMac is a good program for those looking for a basic backup solution. However, for more comprehensive backups, it is recommended to find a program that can clone your hard drive or use Time Machine.
