This will allow me to have a travel HDD I can take with me and keep everything 
up to date. 
A lot of times I go somewhere give out some DVDs or some music but I may pick 
up some
and others may put some on my drives, this way no sweat just very easily  sync. 
This
will also do a great job on a lot of other stuff.
Thanks Chance for the recommend.

That's why I like ChronoSync. I use it to copy just the music and
movies from my ~600GB iTunes library to a 160GB portable drive.

The ChronoSync application seems to be working as expected over my LAN. I would 
like to see a progress bar like CCC has, maybe it has one I just need to poke 
around a little.
The  application has a nice way of selecting what and and where you want the 
sync to take place. It has a lot of pretty cool options as to how specific you 
want to get with this.

Re: Netflix

[JoeTaxpayer]

I hate MS as much as the next guy, but.
Redbox has limited selection, and would cost me $2 in gas as well as
30 minutes total driving round trip twice. So that's $3/DVD, more if I
hold it an extra day.
Netflix, I can get about 8 movies on DVD in a month, with no driving,
and can watch more on streaming to the TiVos.

Why would I want NetFlix to die?

OS X has rsync built in, RsyncX is merely a GUI shell for an old version. 

rsync on the mac works perfectly well.

I've written an rsync script that backs up a specific directory to a network 
volume; then I used Platypus  to make it a 
GUI app. Platypus is extremely useful for things like this.

Unfortunately it's on my machine somewhere at work and I can't find it right 
now.

Well I guess I "miss spoke" (that's kinda the fashion  nowadays) I want the

If your intention is to SYNCHRONIZE the files on both computers, so

Unless I'm missing something here, that's why I choose RsyncX is because it

If you remove the "installation check" program by opening the

install, but it won't work on a PPC Mack.


It will, however, work perfectly well on most Hacks.

The early versions were tied to the E-net port, and device 0 (en0)  
was expected, and required.


The more recent versions have relaxed the port requirements, and now  
device 1 (en1) and AirPort (en1 or posssibly en2) will work, although  
AirPort will give occasional interruptions for optimizing the turn- 
around time of the link.


"Watch Instantly" works perfectly on a Gigabyte GA-H55M-S2H with an  
i3-530 or 540, which is a pretty cheap Hack, as Hacks go.


Gigabyte, and others, have been updating the BIOSes on their mobos to  
incorporate features specifically for running MacOS X.


If the DSDT includes the AMAC variable, then it has the Hackintosh  
features already installed.


If not, then these features can be retrofitted to most recent

It's telling you that it doesn't like you, or it's a bad build.

Is there a better application for this. I'm doing this over my LAN. 
CCC wont do it  yet, or maybe I should say I don't know how:-)


Use CCC.

It will let you select/exclude any set of folders and copy them to 
another volume, and schedule that.  The help files are pretty good...


...CCC uses rsync to do it's work.  It is a custom build, with bug 
fixes.  Definitely worth using.

If you're looking for another application, I suggest Chronosync. It
has the highest level of control over what gets backed up and how of
any backup software I've ever used.

M$' add-on works well for me.

Alas, its "installation check" feature rejects all PPC Macks, and  
also all Hacks.


However, that module may be deleted from the installation "package",  
and the subsequent installation and operation on a Hack works very well.


I prefer the business model of Netflix, and will continue to use its  
"Watch Instantly" feature until M$ does something to prevent its use  
on Hacks.


I am not bloody likely to buy an Intel-based Mack just to use it for  
"Watch Instantly".

Personally, I prefer to get my movies on DVD from my local public

don't have thru the national Inter-Library Loan (ILL) system.

 To be clear on this problem a lot of times if you go to Diskwarrior as a first 
fix it may tell you that the HDD is all munged up and you can't replace or 
repair the directory
so if you go back and run Disk utility it will get the disk suitable for 
DiskWarrior's magic plus save some scary dialogs . Plus your problem may be a 
HDD getting a little wore out, they start the no shut down and stuck start up 
stuff prior to a pitch. Other wise your fix will take care of this.

John,

I ran Disk Utility (booting the machine from the OS installation CD).
It said "no repairs needed", but after running it the machine
restarted! I then ran DiskWarrior as you suggested.

Thanks for the help.

Used Intel Mac Mini(s) are starting to get reasonable.  It is the way  
I plan to go since I no longer do high end graphics/publishing but  
wish to stay up-to-date regarding an OS.  BTW, my practice has been  
to upgrade at every other major advance in processor(s).

Re: Netflix

[JoeTaxpayer]

There are many DVD players that offer this, $100-$150 if you look.
I have the MDD G4 and don't see streaming Netflix ability either.
I use the TiVo for that, or just stick with the DVDs.

MS Silverlight 1 is available for PPC, but then they went x86 only
