Installing the Software and Running Your First Backup

Starting Your Next Backup

The BounceBack Control Center application is located inside the BounceBack folder

within the Applications folder. For your convenience you can place this in the Dock or

create an alias for it on your Desktop. Double click it to start a backup or change

settings. Or you can use the new convenient BounceBack menu that is installed onto

the right side of the main menu bar. If you prefer not to have this menu on the main

menu bar, you can disable this feature from the BounceBack Control Center application.

BounceBack will use the settings as defined in BounceBack Control Center, on each

backup.

! Any background tasks that interfere with file copying, including anti-virus software

and file undelete software, need to be disabled for the backup drive.

! If the external drive contains old backups, use Apple’s Disk Utility to reformat the

drive as Mac Extended format before running the initial backup.

! If FileVault is enabled, BBBackup will backup your home directory as encrypted. Any

secondary users that are not logged in during the backup but have FileVault enabled,

will have their home directories backed up as encrypted and cannot be accessed

unless the user is logged in.
