After downloading the
software please install it where you would like. You can
then follow these steps to protect your data as soon as
possible.
Once
installed, please open the software by double
clicking the taskbar icon. -> |
Next
please click on the Options button. |
This
is where we set your username and password for use
with the backup server. Please fill out the
Request free trial form for your username and
password to be setup. |
This is where we tell the software how you connect
to the internet. If you use a 56k modem please tick
dialup connection and select your connection from
the pull down menu.
Please make sure "This connection dials directly to
the backup server" is NOT checked.
If you connect to the internet using a local area
network that is always on, then leave the dialup
connection unchecked.
Please note, the username and password on this tab
are what you use to connect to your internet service
provider, you will need to contact them if you are
not sure. |
Next
please click "Sets" on the main screen. A backup set
is simply a list of files for the backup software to
use when backing up.
You can have an unlimited amount of backup sets. For
instance you can have one set scheduled to backup
once a week that contains your documents. And
another set to backup once a day that contains your
Myob or Quickbooks database.
This is a very powerful tool as you choose what you
want to backup, when you want. |
Once you have what backup sets you want you will
need to add files to them. |

Select what backup set you want from the pull down
menu, then simply add files to it by ticking them in
the explorer like window. |
Now
that the software knows what to backup, we can tell
it WHEN.
Click Schedules on the main screen, and select
"Add".
Name the schedule whatever you like, if you have
more than one backup set you can call it something
like "weekly schedule".
Next select what backup set(s) you would like to
backup when this schedule is ran.
Select daily/weekly/monthly as you require. Set what
days and time you would like to backup, and you can
even instruct the backup software to shutdown/power
off your computer after it is finished backing up. |

Tips for finding the right files:
To backup your email inbox/sent items etc you
need to find the right files. If you use Microsoft
Outlook Express simply do a search on your hard
drive for "Inbox.dbx" or "Sent Items.dbx" etc.
(include system/hidden files). The search should
find them in "C:/Documents and
Settings/{username}/Local Settings/Application
Data/Identities/{kerberos certificate
code}/Microsoft/Outlook Express". This is the
location if you use Windows XP or 2000. If you use
Windows 98 or ME the location will be under the
C:/Windows/Application Data... etc.
If you use Microsoft Outlook you will find the
location of your data files by selecting File/Data
file management in outlook. The data files have the
extension of *.pst and contain all your outlook
settings and emails.
Note that the above files can be fairly large.
Once backed up, the backup software only backs up
the changes made, not the whole file.
Please be sure to store all your original
software disks and CDs offsite, so that if needed
you can reinstall your software and restore your
files from the OzBackup servers.
