    @TheExistenceBand i not sure just try to add it your external hardrive and see also test you can open the dmg file as well to be sure the back up as worked

  • TheExistenceBand:

    it’s a compressed file right? so if i have like 300gb used on my hd, how much room do i need on my external hard drive to save it to? great video btw

  • gjgjkdli:

    I acctually dont hav any hard disk ! so IS THAT SAFE TO SAVE IN THE MAC ITSSELF? AND I WAN 2 INSTALT XP BY DOING PARTITION !
    BUT MY MAC ASKS ME ”’Back up the disk and use Disk Utility to format it as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot Camp Assistant again.”’
    IS THAT SAFE IF I DO FORMAT BY KEEPING THE BACK UP FILE IN THE MAC!
    CAN I RESTORE AFTER FORMAT?

    THATZ Y I AM DOING BACK UP!
    AND PLZ EXPLAIN THE IMPORTANCE OF BACK UP!

  • dancingmachine01:

    i have a question, so, if i wanna do another backup later on do i have to erase everything on my external hardrive then copy everything? cause i dont want duplicates on my external.

  • davidjb1988:

    Hello. I’m new to all this… i’ve always looked for a way to back my mac up. I have OS X Lion and i followed this process.I clicked ‘Mac HD’ but i can’y create a new image? It’s not highlighted or something?

  • iSeenthatB4:

    Awesome thank you so much. Im gonna install Snow Leopard

  • FelxoMediaSolution:

    yes and you can moved the data to a new mac at any time

  • iSeenthatB4:

    Ok So doing that backup saves everything? from pictures to programs?

  • MaryRock07:

  • matthewjhudson:

    i though if you do a time machine back up then it will remember all the old operating system niggles and therefore make a clean install redundant. is this correct?

  • FelxoMediaSolution:

    if you dont want to use time machine yes ?

  • matthewjhudson:

    Good video, is this the correct method to use when wanting to do a clean install?

  • 17karankokar:

    same same. It says mac HD is busy.. WTF DO WE DO?

  • MeicoRaider:

    Oh, I thought the time machine part was a joke. I’m such an idiot.

  • DriveThruo:

    I KNOW WHY I SHOULD BACKUP MY MAC!! JUST GET ON IT!

  • MrDroplick:

    Excellent Tutorial for Linux users. Well Donel!!!! :-)
    It can also be done the way igrewold suggested.

    “You don’t need all that just download the *.deb package then double click on it then click install.

    After that you will find a shortcut for BlueJ under Developement/Programming submenu in the main menu.

  • jhirzel88:

    Um, I had to look BlueJ up, and as far as I know, it’s a type of Java program. I had to learn Java in Programming 2, 3, and in Data Structures. I really suck at Java in comparison to C++ but I can code, it’s just that I prefer C++ better. Still, it’s a good tutorial to have up because I saw no other YouTube videos on this.

  • AbeSmoothie:

    Oh sorry almost forgot to mention how to get the widgets :) just look up screenlets and you should be able to find it without to much trouble. I would try looking under the installer, a quick search I would think would come up with some results :) good luck on your quest!

  • AbeSmoothie:

    I’m so sorry :( I try to be as accurate as possible when doing these sorts of things, but considering I just threw it together I made a slight error. I shall correct it promptly thank you much! :)

  • jatin1995:

    there is a need of correction, u have written sudo apt-get install sun-java6-sdk, but it shud be sudo-get install sun-java6-jdk, minor problem but it screwed me for an hour and finally i got this one from another website! still nice tutorial, can u tell me how u got those desktop gagdet sorta thing? :D

  • AbeSmoothie:

    happy to help any way I can. I will try to do it asap, but vista really is being a pain right now I must say. lol

  • olre1:

    thank you!! =]

  • AbeSmoothie:

    I currently don’t have my vista operating system working, which sucks! But I will attempt to get it going as soon as possible then do a tutorial. I can give you step by step instructions that may or may not work until then. I have to go to class but let me know if that works.

  • olre1:
