Backups for Final Cut Pro is like Time Machine® for Final Cut Pro X®! It performs timed and manual snapshots of your FCP X Libraries, Projects and Events.
“Some very cool stuff. There's nothing like it out there” — Larry Jordan
“Life saver — 5 stars
The fact that FCPX doesn't even have a "Save" command, makes me queasy, so "Backups for FCP" comes to the rescue with its "GO" button, letting me save my edits whenever the urge strikes me, as well as letting me backup at scheduled intervals. Now when I edit with FCPX, I feel like I'm wearing a Kevlar life preserver in an ocean full of digital debris and corruption, ready to sink me and all my hard work.” – miggsb

What can Backups for Final Cut Pro do?
• Periodically or manually backs up your Final Cut Pro X Libraries, Projects and Events as snapshots. You control how often. You control what drives to back up. Excellent, if you find the FCP X 10.1 backup feature inadequate.
• Consolidates all your Final Cut Pro X data in one place for easy backup and archiving to additional devices.
• It gives you control. You can control how much to backup. You can control what to restore.
• Lets you restore everything from a given snapshot or selected libraries, projects, folders, or events. You may select what drive to restore to.
• Forgot why you made a backup? Add a description to each snapshot describing why you made it. Very handy!
• You can back up just the project and event files themselves or add Media, Shared Items, or FCP X's own Backup folders as well.
• Backs up and restores saved Motion projects in your Motion Templates folder.
• Ignores Render files. These are easily regenerated.
• Works under Snow Leopard as well as Lion & Mountain Lion.
• Backups are incremental. Only changes since the previous backup operation are added to an archive.
• Lets you see a list of all your backup snapshots and what files were backed up. You can delete old snapshots.
• “Safe” snapshots. Only completed snapshots are retained. Available disk space is checked before the backup begins.
• “Safe” restores. If to a local drive, replaced files are placed in the Trash—they are never deleted.
• Continually adding new features.
