Removable Media

Using ChronoSync with removable media is really no different than using ChronoSync with local volumes. The only requirement is that your media must be mountable on the desktop, i.e. when you insert the media into its device, an icon appears on Finder's desktop. ChronoSync possesses no special knowledge about exotic devices and thus, if it cannot be mounted as a standard volume, it will not work with ChronoSync.

When a volume is removable, ChronoSync detects it as such. Thus when you open a Synchronizer Document that has a removable volume as one of its target, the Targets Tab Panel will appear as follows:

The "Cannot Verify Target" message is your first indication that something is amiss. You can then simply mount the volume by inserting it in the appropriate device. ChronoSync will recognize the mount and correct it's state.

If you choose to ignore the message, or are moving so quickly you fail to notice it, attempting a synchronization will yield the following dialog:

When this is displayed, you can simply insert your media and it will disappear. You can also cancel the synchronization process by hitting "Cancel". Lastly, the target can be changed by clicking "Locate" and specifying a new target.
