2.6.2 Local destination of mobile backups

When you back up your mobile data to a computer, Acronis True Image stores the backups in the
default folder /Library/Application Support/Acronis Mobile Backup Data/acronis-local-data/. When
you change the destination, the acronis-local-data folder is moved to the location that you select.
During this operation, the current mobile backups are paused and will automatically resume when
the operation completes. All new mobile data will be backed up to the new destination.

Note: All mobile backups are always stored in the same folder and cannot be separated.

To change a local destination for mobile backups:

1. In the Backup section, right-click a mobile backup and then click Move.
2. Click Select location, and then select a new location for the backups. Note, you can select a

location only on your internal hard drives.

2.7 Scheduling

backups to run on a regular basis. By default, your Mac is backed up weekly.
