Have you ever wanted an easy way to backup all the important files in your home folder? Are you tired of sifting through the Library directory to find the folders you need to backup?

BackityMac is the easy solution for backing up your most important files. Simply click one of the presets on the side or add your own files. BackityMac will then make a disk image of those files ready for restore when you need them most.

Included with BackityMac is a method to burn your backups to CD or DVD, BackityMac will automatically chop the images into sections big enough to fit on the proper media.

Did you forget to backup your iTunes Library, and lost everything. Oh, and did you forget to backup your iTunes Library? Well, technically you already have a backup, your iPod.

I noticed if I had BackityMac, backup just my Address book, (backitymac shows its 356k) the resulting backed up sparse image file is a whopping 116MB. I was wondering if that was supposed to be that way (supposed to be that big).

When downloading BackityMac 2.1.9, and try to open the .dmg, I get an error about the disk image is corrupt.

I had emailed the developer a few weeks ago about the issue, but never heard back.
