How do I save my project to external drive?

When I open project window and go to show on disc, many files open. Do I only save backups folder? How do I know which backup is most recent?

Can I also save it to my hard drive on my laptop?

Thank you,
Carole

Carol -

- In the upper menu bar, click on GO
- While the drop down menu is open, press and hold the the Option key
- The drop down menu expends to now show "Library"
- Click on "Library"
- Click on the "Application Support" folder
- Click on the "Everweb" folder
- The blue Project icon is the current EW file for you. If there's more than one you have several websites you're working on. You have to Get Info" from each and guess which is which from the size.
- You can copy any or all to anywhere else including an extra drive. Be aware this is just to copy the project file to save it off-line. It doesn't change anything about EW using it.
- If you trash your EW project you can copy that file back to the Application Support/Everweb folder and you'll be back to where you were when you saved it. Trust me, you'll need that sometime. I save those files weekly or when a big redesign was done.

You can do backups to External Drives from the Preferences window -> Backup. From there you can select the location to save your backup to.

When you backup through EverWeb you can go to the Projects window and you can click the little icon next the project. Select 'Restore from Backup' In the following window you will be able to see all the backups ordered by date.
