Acronis True Image Home 2010

Thread needs solution

Hi,
I use Mozilla Thunderbird for e-mails. How is it possible to make backups with 2010?
There is Outlook as standard.

Thanks for help,

Günter

Hello Günter,

Acronis True Image Home 2010 supports Microsoft Office Outlook 2000, 2002, 2003 and Microsoft Outlook Express.

You can select the following items for Microsoft Office Outlook 2000, 2002, 2003:

Mail Folders

Calendar

Contacts

Tasks

Notes

Signatures

News Folders

User Settings

Address Book

For Microsoft Outlook Express:

Mail Folders

Address Book (select Windows Address Book).

There is no ability to backup Mozilla Thunderbird at the moment. I will request to add this option to the future versions of Acronis True Image Home using customer listening system.

I may suggest you the following workaround to backup and restore Mozilla Thunderbird. To achieve the desired result you should copy Profiles folder from C:\Documents and Settings\Support Engineer\Application Data\Thunderbird and then in case the issue arise install Mozilla Thunderbird from the scratch and paste Profile folder to the same location. All your settings, contacts and e-mails will stay intact. The size of this folder can be rather big so I may recommend you to use Acronis True Image Home 2010 for backup purposes in order to make it smaller in size (by default normal compression level is used).  

You can also use My Application Settings backup option within the program in order to save only the settings of Mozilla Thunderbird and not the application executable files. If an application seems to malfunction or ceases to run you are supposed to reinstall it using the last updates and then recover your settings from the backup. You can backup only those application settings which are listed by Acronis True Image Home 2010.

Let me know if you need further assistance.

Thank You.

I use a Samsung S2 Portable USB Harddrive.
The device can be used without problems for reading and storing data.
When I start acronis true image 11 the for a backup the S2 appears on the
page "Auswahl der Partitionen"

Partition: without
capacity 465,8 GB
Typ: DS: without partition 0*7 (NTFS)

Hello Hanno,

In your case I need additional information to find out how Acronis detects your Samsung S2 USB drive. Could you please download Acronis Report utility and run it, create a report with USB drive plugged in and attach it to your reply?
This would provide me with detailed information on the hard disk partition structure.

I'm looking forward to hearing back from you at your earliest convenience.

Thank you.

My primary browser is Firefox with occasional use of SeaMonkey. I rarely use IE8 although I have it installed.

I uses TrueImageHome to a scheduled basis create a full backup of my system. This backup includes everything on my system disk which includes several partitions.

For me, the fact that TrueImage does not have a feature specifically for Firefox does not bother me or hinder my use of TrueImage. My regular full backups of everything include backups of Firefox so I am never without a recent backups of Firefox & my emails.

I also do not use TrueImage to perform a separate backups of my personal files. My full backup includes these files.

If you really want to have a separate backup of Firefox and your emails, then I would suggest you download the free MozBackup program which is very easy to use and to restore. An additional second alternative would be to use Replicator to copy your pertinent Firefox files to another drive. If you have the time, for comments by others about their backup procedures, read item 12 listed in my signature index.

And of course, your backups may be worthless unless you have tested them and performed restores to make they they work as intended--prior to a real crisis.

Gunter:

To backup Thunderbird and/or Firefox use Mozbackup, a freeware that works great. I used it to migrate my
Thunderbird from an XP computer to my new Win 7/64 computer, it was cast, complete, and slick!

@Hanno:

The Samsung S2 Disc is not fully compatible with Acronis TI, it is even not fully compatible with Windows 7; take a look at threads 6663 and 6365 ( http://forum.acronis.com/forum/6365)

Unfortunately the S2 disc is not useful for backup with Acronis and /or Win 7; it is not possible to access the disc from the Acronis rescue media or from the Win 7 rescue disc.

I use Acronis True image 10 on an HP machine running Windows 7 64 bit. Full disk backup (including incrementals every day works fine. But in my User, "Richard" folder, there is a subfolder "my documents" into which I save all of our word documents. When I open the backup of my c drive, this folder appears empty, but all of my documents show up in a folder called "documents." This folder does not exist on my hard drive.

Any guess as to why Acronis is changing the name of my folder and ignooring the original folder?

Thanks!
