1265 SuperDuper is a wildly acclaimed program that makes recovery painless, because it makes creating a fully bootable backup painless. Its incredibly clear, friendly interface is understandable, easy to use, and SuperDuper's built-in scheduler makes it trivial to back up automatically. It's the perfect complement to Time Machine under Leopard, allowing you to store a bootable backup alongside your Time Machine volume—and it runs beautifully on both Intel and Power PC Macs!

SuperDuper's interface confirms all your actions in simple, clear language to ensure that the end result is exactly what you intended. Take a look, and click for additional screen shots!

We all know that using the Macintosh is usually a trouble-free experience.

Except when it's not. Like when:

• Your hard drive starts making that horrible clicking noise that signals an imminent meltdown


• A momentary lapse of coordination causes your PowerBook to take a dirt nap


• The system suddenly fails to boot


• Your most important day-to-day application isn't working with the system update you just applied


• The new driver you just updated is causing your Macintosh to crash


• That lousy software you just tried didn't come with an uninstaller, and scattered files all over your drive


• You need to restore a stable copy of your system, but don't want to lose what you've been working on


• You need to test new versions of the operating system with production data you can't afford to lose

SuperDuper is the most advanced, yet easy to use disk copying program available for OS X. It can, of course, make a full backup, or "clone" — in moments, you can completely duplicate your boot drive to another drive, partition, or image file. In even less time, you can update an existing clone with the latest data: use Smart Update and, minutes later, your backup is completely up to date!

The latest version of SuperDuper! can store a bootable backup alongside Time Machine backups, copy Time Machine backups to other drives, run scheduled copies on demand, and polishes and improves many other aspects as well. (A full list can be found by selecting Help > Revision History.)

SuperDuper! remains a Universal Application, and works beautifully on Intel and Power PC based Macs.

It's a free update for users: existing copies of SuperDuper! will auto-upgrade the next time they are run

Give SuperDuper a workout on your own system. Clone to your heart's content — for free. See what else is possible. When you're convinced that SuperDuper is a terrific solution — and a great value at $27.95 — you can register right from the application and start using its advanced features immediately.

Please note that SuperDuper! is not designed to back up to CDs, DVDs or Tape, and needs a location (other than the boot volume) to store the backup - typically a volume on an internal or external (FireWire) drive. SuperDuper! only copies HFS+ (Mac-native) volumes.

Note also that USB drives do not allow booting Power PC based Macintoshes under any version of Mac OS X: this is not a SuperDuper! limitation, but one of the OS. If you would like to boot from a backup stored on an external drive, and have a Power PC based Mac, please purchase a Mac compatible FireWire drive. Intel Mac users can boot from either USB or FireWire drives.

New in version 2.5:
