Immediate Backup window will open and the backup process
will begin.

The first backup may take some time depending on the
number of files in your computer. Each subsequent backup
will take less time. This is because Retrospect compares the
files in your actual system to the backup version and only
copies new files or files that have been modified since the
last backup. For more information on backup strategies, see
the Retrospect Express User's Guide.
When the backup is complete, the message: 'Execution
completed successfully' should appear.
If your system backup was successful, you can quit Retrospect.
For OS 9: Go to the File menu and select Quit.
For OS X: Go to the Retrospect Express menu and select Quit
Retrospect Express.
When you quit Retrospect, a window will appear: 'Script EasyScript
Backup is next for automatic execution.' This is a reminder to make
sure that the drive you plan to use for the next backup (your Maxtor
OneTouch II drive) is connected to your computer and ready. If you
are not sure, you can click the Check Media button to have
Retrospect check for you.
