ChronoSync easily synchronizes or backs-up files and folders in a variety of ways. Synchronize files between folders, hard drives, removable media, laptops, file servers, or any computer, not just a Macintosh. Features include:
Fully customizable toolbar.
All synchronization settings are stored in separate, self-contained, double-click- able documents that can be run or modified at any time.
Synchronize files in any direction or bi-directionally.
Establish simple, intermediate, or advanced rules to include or exclude files by name, size, date, extension, plus other more advanced options.
Compare files before and after synchronizations to see the status of every file.
Run trial synchronizations to check results before committing.
Special options that ignore invisible files, resolve alias, preserve folder attributes and synchronize deletions.
A complete transaction log maintains a complete history of all synchronizations run with options for exporting and printing.
Automate synchronization with a full-featured scheduler.
Schedule synchronizations to occur at launch, termination, once, or any repetitive time frame desired.
Launch ChronoSync at system startup and have it run in the background.
Use AppleScripts to automate the process even further.
Version 4.2.0:
Enhancements:
File size statistics showing the number of bytes to be copied are displayed in the Trial Synchronization window.
Full Undo/Redo support in the Trial Synchronization window.
Added shortcut key equivalents to the 'Actions' in the Trial Synchronization window.
The Trial Synchronization window now allows actions to be performed on multiple file-pair selections.
A new multi-delete action is available when selecting multiple file-pairs.
Support for "Services" added for selected file pairs in the Trial Synchronization window.
When running a Trial Synchronization, the progress sheet will present an estimation of how much time remains.
When a large file is being copied, a "Skip" button will enable and a running total of the bytes being copied is displayed.
A "Compare" button added to the conflict sheet.
Added the "When independent agent becomes available" scheduling method that watches for remote ChronoAgents to become available.
New scheduling option to fine-tune the number of times a schedule can run in a certain time period.
New scheduling option that will retry a synchronization if errors were found in the previous synchronization.
Bug Fixes:
Fixed a bug where a sync wouldn't invoke manually if a schedule sync was missed and posted to the scheduler log.
Fixed a bug whereby directories that were marked as read-only could not be moved to the archive.
Fixed a problem with performance and memory inefficiencies when altering the dimmed states of entries in response to toggling their enabled states.
Fixed a problem with sorting files by size in the Analyze panel.
Fixed a bug whereby an attribute-only conflict the first time a file-pair is encountered will just get ignored and recorded as 'in sync' if a 'sync selection' action was invoked.
Fixed a bug where the displayed date for the next scheduled sync would be incorrect if a user changed a time-based schedule to a non time-based schedule.
