No, it isn't supported. Acronis is supposedly working on a Mac version for some time now but nothing has been said about a release date. The only thing TI might do is image the Mac disk in sector-by-sector mode which means that every sector will be backed up, not just the in-use sectors and will therefore take a long time and use a lot of space.

Hi all,
So my friend has a macbook pro that has a failing hard drive. https://tmryssc.weebly.com/wd-backup-for-mac.html. By using my windows PC, can I take her hard drive, boot into acronis recovery, and recover her old hard drive into a new hard drive?
I know imaging isn't possible, but I should be able to clone it to a new hard disk and just pop the new hard disk into the mac book right?
Thanks,
-Wu

I don't think the mac os and file system observe the same geometry, boot sector rules, etc. So a restore might not get you a bootable sysem disk.
I think mac has it's own built in backup program. Can she restore from that?

Is it possible to use the TIH 2011 bootable media to create a disk clone? I have a 1TB external USB drive I have been using for all my laptop backups (upto three now :( ) and would like to use the same process of - Boot from CD, Clone Disk, Store on USB drive.
When it boots into TIH is doesnt show the local disk on my Mac Pro.

Matthew,
It is possible to use the 2011 bootable media to create clones in general, but not on Mac computers.

From page 12 of the True Image Home 2010 manual:
Acronis True Image Home also enables creation of a bootable CD-R/DVD-R that can back up and recover a disk/partition on a computer running any Intel- or AMD- based PC operating system, including Linux®. The only exception is the Intel-based Apple Macintosh, which is currently not supported in native mode.

Hello,
Seekforever and Gary, you are absolutely correct.
Matt, let me shed some more lights on your concern.
Acronis products do not support Apple Mac OS X.
Standalone versions of Acronis products do not support Apple Mac machines.
Acronis products do not run under any Windows or Linux operating systems when installed on Apple Mac using Bootcamp.
There are at least two reasons for this:
- Apple Mac machines use the EFI bootstrap firmware instead of the BIOS firmware;
- Apple Mac machines use different partitioning principles.
Please reply to this thread if you have any additional questions.
Thank you.

If you want to image a Mac, I'd recommend you check out Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper.
Both programs work very, very well, have excellent support, and are inexpensive (CCC is free to educational institutions, for example)

Hi, I have the same problem. I have a new iMac, and a new macbook pro, along with my pc's. Will you PLEASE add the ability to make a full disc image of the mac hard drive, and be able to burn it directly to DVDs?
Yes, there are 2 programs for mac that will allow you to clone the drive to another drive (ccc and superduper), but that isn't a good solution. I want to be able to burn a full disc image of the mac drive to DVDs, just like I can on my windows xp PCs, using ATI home 2010. Do you realize there is NO image solution for macs to burn directly to DVDs? You've got us all spoiled with ATI for our PCs, now you have to give us the same ability on our OS X macs! Pretty Please...lol.

Hello,
In spite of what is said above, I found that Acronis True Image Home 2012 works very well on my MacPro (1,1) for backing up and restoring the Bootcamp partition.
It requires a little doing, though, because one needs to transfer the program from the USB Rescue Media that one creates with Acronis onto a Syslinux/isolinux boot cd.
It sounds more complicated than it is:
It requires a little doing, though, because one needs to transfer the program from the USB Rescue Media that one creates with Acronis onto a Syslinux/isolinux boot cd.
It sounds more complicated than it is:
Acronis For Mac Crack
1) Create the Acronis Rescue Media onto a USB stick
2) Download the iso image of the open source 'Ultimate Boot CD' version 5.1
3) Install an ISO image editor such as 'iso master'
4) Open the UBCD.iso with Iso-Master
5) Locate the directory /ubcd/custom/ on the iso
6) create a directory called something like 'athi2012' and copy the files 'dat2.dat' and 'dat3.dat' from the Acronis Rescue Media into this new directory. The files should look as in the attached screenshot.
7) replace the file custom.cfg by an edited version where you add the entry (or use the attached copy):
LABEL -
MENU LABEL Acronis Home Image 2012.
KERNEL /ubcd/custom/athi2012/dat3.dat
APPEND initrd=/ubcd/custom/athi2012/dat2.dat /S quiet vga=789
MENU LABEL Acronis Home Image 2012.
KERNEL /ubcd/custom/athi2012/dat3.dat
APPEND initrd=/ubcd/custom/athi2012/dat2.dat /S quiet vga=789
8) save the modified ubcd.iso and burn it onto a cd.
9) to back up or restore the Bootcamp partition, boot the Mac from this cd by holding the option key at restart
- in the text menu that comes up, select 'User defined' and in the next submenu: 'Acronis Home Image 2012'
ATIH cannot write to HFS partitions, so you need to have a second NTFS volume or a large enough USB stick to copy the Bootcamp backup onto.

Maybe Acronis could propose a ready-made ISOLINUX installation for Mac Users ..
(I've used the above a number of times, and it's worked very reliably, but as with any partition manipulations, back up all essential data with Time Machine and don't blame me in case something goes wrong!)

Doesn't the MAC come with a built in backup program? I thought that was standard in the Apple OS and had been for sometime.

Hi Scott,
Principle for mac. yes, the Mac comes with 'Time Machine' which is excellent, but it doesn't back up the Bootcamp volume that Macs users can add if they want to be able to boot their machine under Windows (when needing to use software that doesn't run on the Mac).

Well, Apple doesn't want you doing that. Apple knows what you should and shouldn't do -- stick with the proglram.
;) just kidding. Couldn't resist. As for the hoops to achieve what you want, some path is better than no path but it reminds me of the old joke about the guy that wanted to buy a suit:
A guy goes into a store to buy a suit and the clerk has him try one on:
Guy, 'Hey one sleeve is longer than the other.'
Clerk says, 'Just shift your shoulders like this and it will look fine, see.'
Guy, 'But the pantlegs are uneven.'
Clerk, 'Well, just shift your weight onto one hip and, yes, see it looks fine.'
Guy, 'But the collar rides low on one side.'
Clerk, 'Here, hold that side in place with your chin against your chest like you're holding a violin. Voila!'
Guy, 'Hey one sleeve is longer than the other.'
Clerk says, 'Just shift your shoulders like this and it will look fine, see.'
Guy, 'But the pantlegs are uneven.'
Clerk, 'Well, just shift your weight onto one hip and, yes, see it looks fine.'
Guy, 'But the collar rides low on one side.'
Clerk, 'Here, hold that side in place with your chin against your chest like you're holding a violin. Voila!'
This goes on for bit and the guy, for some reason buys the suit and wears it out of the store and down the street with his chin clamped to his chest, and one leg sort of dragging and his shoulder cocked, etc.
Two doctors walk past him and one says, 'Oh that poor fellow,' and the other says, 'Yes, but he sure had a nice looking suit.'

Good joke!
Practically speaking, the Mac works very well for page layout and graphics plus any day-to-day office. But on the side of accounting software or microprocessor development environments, it's a bit more sparse and even a die-hard Mac addict may have to run Windows, and for easily backing up the Windows partition, it's worth the little one-time gymnastics to install Acronis True Image on a medium the Mac can boot!

Well, one of the morals might be that it's better to walk funny than naked.
