Jim, I tried to send it to Shirt Pocket but it would not let me do that. It is giving me messages that it cannot connect to the server to check for upgrades also. It seems it has just gone haywire. I am wondering if I should uninstall it and reinstall it to see if I can clear the problem. What are your thoughts? I really want to have a 2nd and possible 3rd backup option besides Time Machine. I do have to say I was very impressed with the system recovery in Lion and how well Time Machine worked. It was so effortless and I cannot even tell I installed a new drive. Everything is just the same, except for the large amount of memory I now have ;-))
I am very heavy into genealogy research and have amassed a lot of paper documents, etc. I am trying to downsize and my goal is to scan everything into my computer, which is why I wanted the large memory. I have 3 separate backup hard drives and want to use something different on each one. Right now I am using Time Machine and Super Duper. I am trying to figure out what to use on the 3rd drive.
