Discussion forum for FBackup users.
We are organizing a giveaway, where 50 licenses for Backup4all Professional (total value of $2500) will be given to 50 users. All you have to do is create a video tutorial about FBackup and upload it to Youtube - there is no drawing so as long as there are licenses left from those 50, you will receive one too. Here are the details: Backup4all Giveaway.
I'm using two external hard drives and FBackup is accepting only the first one for backups. After choosing the secound one and saving this, it changes back to the first one. So, no backup to the secound external hard drive is possible.
Moreover, the German language is uncompletet in version 4.3. Many messages occur in English only.
Hi,
1. Are the external drives connected in the same time on your computer?
2. Are they seen as external drives or as removable drives?
3. Do you have the same problem if you create a new backup job?
I'm having the same problem. I specify "F", and it insists on "E".
They are both connected, and have been for several reboots.
They are both seen as external.
This happened on the first backup job I created, and the second.
I go to the page to select destination, specify F, and save. It still says it plans to save on E.
Hi,
Please send us the backup catalog from View->Open Folder->Catalog Folder.
Put the file into a zip archive.
Send the archive to info[at]fbackup[dot]com
That's empty.
I select the backup, click "properties", click "External Hard Drive" for destination, change the pulldown from E to F, and click "Save". It immediately shows the destination as E.
Hi,
We were able to reproduce your situation only if the F drive is not formatted.
Please make sure you can copy files to F drive.
The F drive has thousands of files taking up several hundred GB. I created a new top-level directory on F to store the backup in.
Hi,
Please make sure you have the latest version of FBackup 4.4 build 213 installed.
If you still have the problem, please send us to info[at]fbackup[dot]com the catalog file from View->Open Folder->Catalog folder.
I updated to 213 (was 207); same problem.
View->Open Folder->Catalog folder is an empty folder (I haven't actually run any backups yet, because they're pointed at the wrong disk).
Hi,
In this case, please send us the ini file from View->Open Folder->Initialization folder.
I switched drive letters (to put the drive I wanted the backup on before the other external drive), and now it accepts that drive.
