Thanks for that link to Synk. I downloaded it and have 29 more days. It works just fine for me. <br><br>I noticed this for the price.<blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr><p>As I am a starving student myself, I understand how tight budgets are.

psync for me is _not_ backing up extended attributes in Tiger.<br><br>ie. the metadata that spotlight uses is not being copied.<br><br>This is probably because MacOSX::File doesn't know anything about xattr?<br><br>Try it yourself. Add keywords to a photo and then backup the jpeg. mdls will show you the metadata isn't copied to the destination.<br><br><br>
