  • Fast and reliable restorations
  • Create bootable backups of your startup volume
  • Synchronize folders and volumes

    How does Personal Backup X5 protect my Mac?
    Personal Backup X5 protects you from disasters by backing up your files regularly. You can create custom scripts to meet your precise needs, and Personal Backup X5 ensures that you always have copies of your files. And the program continues to protect you through automated schedules that ensure you always have up-to-date backups.

    What kind of backups can I run with Personal Backup X5?
    You can back up important files to any hard disk, network volume or optical disc. You can also create a bootable backup of your Mac, to get back to work in case of system problems. And you can synchronize a folder or volume, to ensure that each one contains the same files.

    Can I customize my backups?
    All of Personal Backup X's scripts offer a wide range of customization options. You can set schedules, so your scripts run automatically, you can choose exceptions, to copy or not copy specific types of files, and you can have Personal Backup X5 run any program before or after it executes a script.

    How can I restore my files if something goes wrong?
    Personal Backup X5 stores files in standard Finder format, so you can recover a single file easily, without having to worry about special types of archives. The program's restoration feature lets you recover multiple files, and if you have a bootable backup, you can restart your Mac from that disk at any time.

    Personal Backup X5: Protects all your files
    1. Create multiple scripts Create as many scripts as you want, for your specific backup needs, and see them all in Personal Backup X5's Scripts column.
    2. Select the source and destination Choose one or more sources, and a destination, for each script. You can back up to external hard disks, network volumes, optical discs and more.
    3. Scripts are fast and efficient Choose to copy only files that have changed since your last backup, saving time and disk space. Personal Backup X5's scripts are fast, efficient, and can run in the background.

    Choose: Backup, Bootable Backup and Synchronization
    1. Back up and protect your files Copy your important files to another volume or hard disk, to a network volume, or make archives on CDs or DVDs.
    2. Make a bootable backup of your Mac Create a full backup of your Mac OS X installation on an external disk; in case of problems, just restart from that disk and get back to work.
