Arq 1.3 is out!

Feature Additions

  • Much better problem handling and reporting. When an problem occurs on a particular file, Arq continues backing up the other files. It logs the problems and displays an indicator to the user that problems occurred.
  • “Start at login” setting in preferences.
  • “Show menubar icon” setting in preferences — menubar icon is now optional.
  • Added a step in the setup wizard to make it easy to back up your home folder.
  • Added Delete-key shortcut for removing a folder from backups.
  • When the Internet connection goes away during initial backup of a folder, backup just pauses until it becomes available (instead of restarting the entire backup).
  • When restoring files, restore to original location if possible; otherwise restore to a “Restored by Arq” folder at the original location.

Bug Fixes

  • Added workaround for Apple bug reading Finder flags on symlinks.
  • Fixed issues with SOCKS support.
  • Improved behavior when Internet connection is intermittent.
  • If Arq Agent stops running (which only happens if Arq Agent crashes, which should be never!), Arq notifies the user and restarts it.

Pick “Check for Updates” in the Arq menu, or get it here: Arq.zip
