norval Posted April 30, 2002 Report Share Posted April 30, 2002 Why does Express (4.3 &5) change my formatted external fireware hard disk from HFS+ to HFS standard on backups. As I understand it then the backup would not work when sent back to my HFS+ primary source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 30, 2002 Report Share Posted April 30, 2002 You have most likely created a Removable Disk backup set. When backing up to an external drive, you should use a file backup set instead. This tutorial can guide you through the correct way of setting this up: http://www.dantz.com/index.php3?SCREEN=tutorial_osx_ibhd1 Irena Solomon Dantz Tech Support Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norval Posted May 8, 2002 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2002 I have been down that path before and don't do it. I am backing up a MacOs9.2 HFS+ drive to a firewire hard drive. Thank you for the directions for the tutorial (much needed since it is confusing), but that is for MacOsX. Do you have one for 9.2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 10, 2002 Report Share Posted May 10, 2002 Although the screenshots are for OS X, the functionality of the program is the same. Thus this tutorial can guide you through the process in OS 9, even though the screenshots may look a little different than what you are seeing.
