BackJack Continuum Help Documentation
The Restore Window Tab
The Restore Window lists will be blank until you have performed your first Continuum backup. There are two lists that exist in the Restore window: a) Items you have backed up; and b) Items you would like to restore. The latter list is populated with items from the former.
Previously Backed Up Items
Once you have completed your first Continuum backup and all subsequent backups, the 'Items You Have Backed Up' will list all the directories and files that are available for recovery on the remote storage servers. It is from this list that you can select directories or files to restore.
Selecting Data to Restore
To recover an item, simply highlight the directory or file in the 'Items You Have Backed Up' list and click on the the 'Add to Restore List' button.
The selected directory or file will now appear in your 'Items You Would Like To Restore' list.
Simply repeat this step for any further items you wish to recover from the remote storage servers.
If you have an item in your 'Items You Would Like To Restore' list that you do not want to restore, highlight it in the list and click the 'minus' sign to remove it from the list.
Restore Destination
The default location for restoring your files from the remote storage servers is your Home folder. You may designate a different destination location by clicking on the 'Set...' button. This will bring up a separate window for you to choose a new destination for your file recovery.
Once you have populated your 'Items You Would Like To Restore' list and set your destination, click on the 'Restore' button to begin downloading your directories and files from the remote storage servers.
Should you experience any difficulties with the restoration of your files, please refer to the documentation on reinstallation or contact BackJack.
