I wanted to look at log files from past SuperDuper runs and I found them somewhat hard to locate. Viewing the log from within SuperDuper on my computer (running 10.3.9) only shows the most recent one.

I eventually found the log files inside this folder:

~/library/Application Support/SuperDuper!/Saved Settings/.Default Settings.sdsp/Logs

but this is hard to get to because the
.Default Settings.sdsp
folder is an invisible one.

These logs are so hidden I presume that the software doesn't want users finding or looking at them, but I sometimes use the logs to compare behavior or even to recall which external drive I most recently did a backup to. I try to alternate backing up to different external firewire drives. I do them manually because I use a laptop and an automated schedule would not work, often the laptop is off site when the schedule would want to do the backup. If I miss a day I sometimes forget which external drive I did the most recent backup to.

So I have two questions:

1) Is there an easier way to view older logs other than using terminal to find this directory?

2) The reason I wanted to look at older log files was that I found this message in a recent log:

| 02:53:09 PM | Info | ...ACTION: Repairing permissions on Macintosh HD
| 02:53:09 PM | Info | ......COMMAND => Repairing permissions on Macintosh HD
| 02:53:48 PM | Info | : object: ./Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunes malformed object (inconsistant sizeofcmds field in mach header)
| 02:56:13 PM | Info |
Started verify/repair permissions on disk disk0s9 Macintosh HD
| 02:56:13 PM | Info | Determining correct file permissions.


It was the "malformed object" item that interested me. This message appears in previous SuperDuper logs. But I don't get this message when repairing permissions from within Disk Utility.

Those are my two questions. Thanks in advance if you can answer them!'
