Description
A plea...
Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in
users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free
download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring
in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna

SuperDuper v3.11

The wildly acclaimed program that makes recovery painless on your Mac computer, because it makes creating a fully bootable backup painless.




Have no fear. SuperDuper v3.11 is here, and it includes full Sequoia support, and improved bootability for all!

SuperDuper is the wildly acclaimed program that makes recovery painless, because it makes creating a fully bootable backup painless. Its incredibly clear, friendly interface is understandable, easy to use, and SuperDuper's built-in scheduler makes it trivial to back up automatically. It's the perfect complement to Time Machine, allowing you to store a bootable backup alongside your Time Machine volume—and it runs beautifully on your Mac!

Version 3.11 supports bootable backups for Tahoe (via the v3.20 Beta, offered automatically) Sequoia, Sonoma, Ventura, Monterey, Big Sur, is Apple silicon native, adds Dark Mode support, and improves Cloud file handling. It includes previous improvements, allowing you to ignore "missing drive" errors during scheduled copies, and Smart Wake, which ensures your backups happen whether your Mac is awake or asleep...and won't turn on your screen if your Mac is already awake.

This new version also includes Smart Delete, an awesome capability that minimizes the possibility of disk full errors while maintaining safety with no speed penalty, native Notification Center support, a Finder extension to quickly run copies, and other improvements. SuperDuper can even create and copy from snapshots, which means with an APFS backup drive, you can restore today's Smart Update, yesterday's, etc! It's super cool.
v3.11 (and the current v3.20 Beta) also includes important security updates, discussed in this post.

SuperDuper's interface confirms all your actions in simple, clear language to ensure that the end result is exactly what you intended. Take a look, and click for additional screen shots!

We all know that using the Macintosh is usually a trouble-free experience. Except when it's not. Like when:
• Your hard drive starts making that horrible clicking noise that signals an imminent meltdown
• A momentary lapse of coordination causes your MacBook Pro to take a dirt nap
• The system suddenly fails to boot
• Your most important day-to-day application isn't working with the system update you just applied
• The new driver you just updated is causing your Macintosh to crash
• That lousy software you just tried didn't come with an uninstaller, and scattered files all over your drive
• You need to restore a stable copy of your system, but don't want to lose what you've been working on
• You need to test new versions of the operating system with production data you can't afford to lose

It happens to all of us, eventually. And recovering can be a painful, error-prone, time-wasting experience, if it's even possible at all. Until now.

Flexibility
Carbon copies. And a whole lot more.

SuperDuper is the most advanced, yet easy to use disk copying program available for macOS. It can, of course, make a full backup, or "clone" — in moments, you can completely duplicate your boot drive to another drive, partition, or image file. In even less time, you can update an existing clone with the latest data: use Smart Update and, minutes later, your backup is completely up to date!

Speed
Faster than a speeding bullet – and more accurate!

SuperDuper isn't just the most powerful cloner available: it's incredibly fast, too. Its Smart Update feature evaluates hundreds of thousands of files and directories in just minutes, automatically updating your clone to reflect any changes you've made on the original drive – including custom icons, HFS+ attributes, ownership changes... the works! It can even copy (and Smart Update) Time Machine backup volumes!

Ease of use
Expertise not required.

SuperDuper comes preconfigured, ready to perform all the most common copying and cloning tasks. We've pored over the Apple documentation so you don't have to. Every step of the process carefully follows all Apple recommended policies and procedures.

Whether you're making a full backup to a disk image, using Smart Update to update an existing backup, or making a complex clone to test a software update, the process couldn't be simpler: select the source drive, the destination and the appropriate script. Click Copy Now, and SuperDuper does the rest.

Experts
Clones for experts.

Regular backups aren't always the best way to recover for the risk takers out there who jump on every software update. Unless you take specific steps, fully restoring a backup restores everything on the drive, overwriting both the system and user files. If that's what you want to do, great. But it usually isn't, because everything you've done since the backup would be lost!

With SuperDuper, though, you can easily "checkpoint" your system with a Sandbox, preserving your computer's critical applications and files while you run on a working, bootable copy. If anything goes wrong, just reboot to the original. When you do, your current Documents, Music, Pictures — even iSync data — are available! You can get back to work immediately!

Testers
Clones for industry!

SuperDuper has enough features to satisfy the advanced user, too. Its simple-but-powerful Copy Script feature allows complete control of exactly which files get copied, ignored, even aliased ("soft linked" for the Unix inclined) from one drive to another!

SuperDuper is perfect for software developers, software "seed" sites, QA testers, even system administrators:

• Developers and Seed Sites
Need to keep up to date with the most recent weekly build of a new operating system? Use the provided "Copy with Shared User Files and Applications" script, or create your own. A few clicks later and your clone is ready to upgrade, without unsafe downgrades, or unsupported "intermediate build" upgrades!
• QA Testers
Need to regress against a large number of operating system targets, or other types of fixed configurations? Simply save a series of images, and in minutes you can restore them and be ready to test.
• System Administrators
Need complete control over building a standard image for one, one hundred or one thousand systems? SuperDuper's Copy Scripts make it easy!

Changes:
v3.11
Sequoia (macOS 15), Sonoma (macOS 14), Big Sur (macOS 11), Monterey (macOS 12). Ventura (macOS 13) users: we can make bootable Intel and Apple silicon backups: see the Shirt Pocket blog for instructions.

The latest version of SuperDuper! is faster, better, fully compatible with Sequoia (macOS 15), Sonoma (macOS 14), Big Sur (macOS 11), Monterey (macOS 12), and Ventura (macOS 13) - in fact, it's compatible with macOS 10.13 and later, has improved boot supportb, Dark Mode, Cloud file handling, Smart Wake, Smart Delete, Notification Center support, additional control capabilities, and improves many aspects of the user experience. Of course, it still includes great features like snapshot support, APFS recovery volume support, Backup on Connect, Eject after Copy, Sparse Bundle support, lets you store a bootable backup alongside Time Machine backups, copy Time Machine backups to other drives, and run scheduled copies on demand. As with every update, we've polished and improved many other aspects as well. (A full list can be found by selecting Help > Revision History.)
