a8a32eda-fa6f-49b0-8e43-23b128e198e8 Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Retrospect 9 MacBook Pro 2GHz Intel Core Due 1GB Ram OSX 10.5.8 Hi all, I used to run Retrospect 6 on an old Mac Quadra with a DAT drive and 5 clients, and it was never a problem, it just worked. But 2 years ago, we updated to Retrospect 8 on a MacBook Pro 2GHz Intel Core Due, a Drobo and the same 5 clients, everything still seemed OK. However, as I have now updated Retrospect to v9, its not OK. Backups themselves seem to be working fine, but if I want to restore anything, then I'm in trouble. Retrospect goes so slowly, takes an age to bring up the info I'm looking for and more often than not, falls over all-together (spinning wheel of death). Has anyone else experienced similar issues, and do you have any pearls of wisdom for me? Is the MacBookPro too old/slow or the OS too old? Please help me, I'm desperate here! regards David PS. I hate Retrospect, its enough to drive a man to drink! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maser Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 The restore issue is a bug that should be fixed in the soon-to-be-released (hopefully?) 9.0.1 update... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a8a32eda-fa6f-49b0-8e43-23b128e198e8 Posted February 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Thanks Maser for your reply. Yes, you are right about the bug. I have been in contact with them about this issue, and amazingly, within the hour, they replayed, acknowledging the problem, and offering me a download for a pre-release version 9.0.0.366. This has worked perfectly, and now Retrospect is behaving as it should. regards David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
