Cannot exclude package
Hi,
I'm trying to tell super duper to exclude Adobe Lightroom previews data when doing full backups. On OSX, they're stored under a single package directory and ALWAYS named as "XXXX Previews.lrdata" Where XXXX is the name of the Lightroom catalog. Anyway, a simple "exclude all packages called YYYY.lrdata" would do. I cannot make Super Duper ignore ' em. This is what I tried: 1) Modify the backup all script, save as new custom script 2) Edit the commands section, tried all these lines (one at a time of course): IGNORE *.lrdata IGNORE */*.lrdata IGNORE *.lrdata/ No way. The damn package gets copied every time... Could you help me please? Thanks, Ale |

Did you send this to me separately through the support email address, Ale? Because I replied to that message...
Anyway, what's likely here is that you haven't specified the folder where the data is. Where are the .lrdata packages? Are they in /Users/your-account/Pictures/Lightroom?

You can't say "ignore *.bak" and have it apply "everywhere". It only applies in the folder you specify. So -- where are these .lrdata packages?

Huh. Anyway, anything will do, but please, don't tell me I have to exclude each single catalog previews by hand... |

Right, so the ignore would be
Code:
Users/Ale/Documents/Lightroom/Main/*/*.lrdata
