Mozy on Mac does not work :-(
October 12, 2007 by Stephan Schmidt
I’ve been trying out Mozy as a backup service for my Mac. Granted it’s beta, but for me it does not work. When I change files or add ne files to a folder, those changes are not detected by Mozy (0.7.0.0). It tells me “no files changes” when I do a backup. Sigh. Either I’m doing something wrong or this is a bug. Their FAQ says it depends on Spotlight, but after checking Spotlight does detect the new files. I guess I either need to way for a final Mozy version, or I’ll look for another service. Sad, because Mozy looked good and was cheap.

I was googling about Mozy on mac to see if I could find anyone else having problems. I actually am having a different problem with 0.7.0.0 than you. My computer is unable to complete a backup because Mozy’s server keeps on dropping the connection (granted I am currently in Hong Kong until December, but this is an issue that Mozy claims is an internal one). Have you had any issues with connection at all?
