Subject: Two backup questions
Hi Alex,
You've ask: "Will my files (except databases) work on this older
machine?"
The answer is Yes!
Even your Databases!
To use your Databases, you just need to copy (don't backup) the
Keybase and
Keylist folders in to two folders of the same name of your PC
Card, SD or
CompactFlash Card.
Go to File manager menu, type C for Copy file.
At the "Source drive?", select your "Flash Disk".
At the "Source folder name?", select your "Keylist" folder.
At the "Source file name?", pres space with dots 1-3-4-6 [read
with X] to
get to the "Entry type: all files" prompt, pres space with dots
3-5 [read
with 8] to select all files in that folder, you will hear:
"Number items
selected" wear "Number" is the number of the files that you have
in your
Keylist folder.
At the "Destination Drive?" select your drive.
Copy them in to a folder with the exact name on your card, just
type in that
name and answer yes when ask if you would like to create a folder
with that
name, and all the files will be copy.
Do the same with the Keybase folder.
Then, to access the databases, within the Keylist menu:
type S for Setup options, then S again for Select KeyList file,
pres
backspace two times to select the drive where you just copy your
Keylist
folder.
The Databases are even easier, at the prompt, "Database to use?
type
backspace two times again to select the driver, then select your
Keybase
folder.
Bingo!
Please feel free to write me off-list if you deem it necessary.
Regards: Hilda.

Subject: [Braillenote] Two backup questions
Hi all:
As the subject says, I have two questions about backing up.
1. Why am I prompted to replace files when I perform an
incremental
backup? I thought the point was not to replace anything that had
not been
modified, and to automatically replace things that HAD been
modified. I am
backing my Flash Disk up onto a 6gb Seagate USB HD, to the same
folder
each time.
2. I am backing up the Flash Disk of an mPower running KS7.2. I
have to
send my beloved mPower to the hospital for various reasons and
use a
classic with 6.11 in the mean time. Will my files (except
databases) work
on this older machine? Also, can I modify my files on the
classic (usinh
the backed up directory on a card) and have them work once I
restore the
new ones to my mPower?
Thanks for any help. If none of this makes sense, let me
know--this is
pretty important.
Have a great day,
Alex
