Product Description:

Deja Vu offers an automatic and seamless new approach to backing up your files. It's a preference pane that shows up in your System Preferences, and it allows you to schedule unattended backups of important folders, or even your entire system.

Deja Vu has been localized for English, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Japanese, Ukrainian, and Traditional Chinese.

  • Backup an unlimited number of folders.
  • Perform your backup manually at the click of a button, or schedule your backups to run whenever it's convenient for you. Backups may be scheduled on a daily, weekly or monthly basis, and will be performed even if you aren't logged in.
  • Save time by backing up only the files that have changed since the last backup.
  • Perform remote backups to WebDAV, AFP, NFS and SMB servers.
  • Synchronize the contents of folders.
  • Accurately clone your OS X system disk, producing a bootable copy.

What's new in this version:

  • Manual backups were not working reliably for some people, and for a different reason than in the prior release.
  • File type/creator codes were still being reversed on certain Macs. Even more fixed than before.
  • Safety Net archives are no longer zipped.
  • The integrity of /var/db/volinfo.database is now verified and repaired if necessary. If this file becomes corrupted, it can cause problems when Deja Vu attempts to enable permissions on the destination volume.
  • Improved registration reliability. It is finally possible to register Deja Vu from a standard (non-Admin) account.
  • Comments may be added to the exclusions file (excludes.txt). Lines beginning with a "#" are considered comments.

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.5 Intel
  • Mac OS X 10.5 PPC
  • Mac OS X 10.4 Intel
  • Mac OS X 10.4 PPC

Additional Requirements:

Deja Vu CommentaryCrashes System Preferences - Version: 3.6, 9/2/2009 01:41PM PST

I've used Deja Vu happily for years. Installed the 3.6 update on my Snow Leopard system, and it crashes System Preferences, every time I try to select it. This will not do. Crash reports have been sent to Apple:(

Deja Vu CommentaryYes, Deja Vu is still supported - Version: 3.4.2, 8/14/2009 10:46AM PST

propaganda prod
Propaganda Productions would like to make the following two points of clarification:

1. Yes, Deja Vu is still being supported. Our customers themselves will be the ones who decide if and when it will ever be abandoned.

2. Deja Vu serial numbers are sent out automatically, and always have been. Sometimes these messages get flagged as spam, so customers may need to check their spam folders. In any case, if you write to us and tell us you never received your registration email, we will always re-send it to you. Always.

Thank you for your time. That is all.

Deja vu has worked well for me for years. When I ran into a problem recently, I received NO response from developer after 3 email attempts from various addresses.

Buyer beware: this looks like an abandoned product.
