GBK.Xscape Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Hey i need to back up my mac and windows installation on my macbook pro becuase im sending it in to get the latch fixed on it so it will close right. the guys at the apple store said to backup everything even though they shouldnt be touching the hard drive. i believe them for some reason too, i could imagine getting back a wiped hard drive for something as cosmetic and physical as that. the guys recommended super duper but that seems to only back up my mac side of my computer. is there a program that will do both or is there a good program in windows i should? thanks for the help in advance-alan Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/46477-backup/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSXtasy Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone a bootable copy of the whole OSX partition to a usb external Hard Drive. Then use Winclone to create a backup image of your windows partition. Just make sure you untick all the option boxes before you make the winclone. Ideally, you could back up the windows partition (with winclone) to your documents folderin osx (store the image there) and then use Carbon copy cloner to make your bootable OSX image on the external drive. That way, you have it all in one place!!! Well, thats what I do anyway. Good Luck!
