Back up now

Use Back up now before something risky, such as deleting an account or restoring another copy, instead of waiting for the daily backup.

Title bar → gear → Settings → Backups → Back up now. Tented copies the journal and settings to the backup folder at once.

To keep copies off this computer, set the folder first: Change… and pick a folder in iCloud Drive, OneDrive or Dropbox. Show in Finder (Show in Explorer on Windows) opens the current folder.

Moving without Tented Cloud

With Your computers only, point both computers’ backup folders at the same iCloud Drive or OneDrive folder. Back up on the first, then Restore on the second.

If a backup fails with “The last backup failed: …”, the folder can’t be written. Fix access or choose another folder.
