SilverKeeper - A freeware GUI backup tool
Authored by: raider on Apr 21, '04 05:38:54PM

I have purchased LaCie FireWire drives (I currently have two) and I use SilverKeeper. I really like it, and the drives have been top notch.

The support from them during the whole FireWire firmware/ OSX issues was great! I highly recommend LaCie products.

We have a friend who has a 40GB iPod and Windows boxes at two offices, and Macs at a third office and home. He needs to keep all of his documents and such syncronized.

He uses SilverKeeper on the Macs for this purpose, but what about the PC?

I know that it's off-topic - but does anyone know of an application like SilverKeeper for the PC?

Thanks,
R/\|DER

Check out http://www.yousoftware.com/products/synchronize.php
&
http://www.yousoftware.com/news/press/040106synchronize.php - BTW, this used to be called ExecutiveSync.

Of interest to you is the time and state sync and support for MacOSX and Windows NT/2K...

Actually, it only supports Windows "Servers" as the location to backup *to*.

The solution we need is for a program like SilverKeeper that will run *on* Windows to copy files to an iPod, just like SilverKeeper does *on* OS X.

:)

But YouSoftware is in Portland... I wonder if they are hiring. :) I sure would love to *work* on a Mac....
