SuperDuper freezes at 3.30GB progress
Hey there - I'm using the trial version of SuperDuper - and as far as I could tell, there were no limitations on how much I could backup with it, just that I don't get Sandbox or various other functionality. My problem is that the backup process freezes when it reaches the 5.37GB evaluated (3.30GB copied) stage. I'm backing up to a Seagate external Firewire 400 drive with more than 280GB available on it, so space is not the issue. I actually still have control over the program, but it seems like it is not doing anything. I cancelled it last time it did this, and now it is stopped in the same place once again.
HELP!! |

Are you backing up to an image, Chris?
If not, it's possible it's copying a large file (you won't get "mid-copy" feedback)... do you use FileVault?

Actually, this is my first Mac and I simply set it up to back up my entire Macintosh HDD as a disk image. I don't know what FileVault is.
If I don't get "mid-copy" feedback, would I get "mid-copy" transfer rate? Because the rate is also stuck, at 8.07MB/second. |

And I forgot to mention, I also right-clicked on the disk I am using to store the image, and the available capacity has not changed at all - wouldn't that at least have mid-copy feedback?

OK. How is your external drive formatted, Chris? (And, no -- nothing about file copying will update mid-file-copy.)

It is formatted so that I can view the drive both from a Mac or PC - MS-DOS I think it is??
