SuperDuper! 4.0.5
SuperDuper! simpler cloning, safer rollbacks, faster recovery

SuperDuper! is an advanced, yet easy to use disk copying program. It can, of course, make a straight copy, or "clone" -- useful when you want to move all your data from one machine to another, or do a simple backup. In moments, you can completely duplicate your boot drive to another drive, partition, or image file.
Clones for safety. To ensure you can safely roll back a system after the unexpected occurs. With a few clicks, you can easily "checkpoint" your system, preserving your computer's critical applications and files while you run on a working, bootable copy. If anything goes wrong, just reboot to the original. When you do, your current Documents, Music, Pictures -- even iSync data -- are available! You can get back to work immediately.
Clones for industry! SuperDuper has enough features to satisfy the advanced user, too. Its simple-but-powerful Copy Script feature allows complete control of exactly what files get copied, ignored, even aliased ("soft linked" for the Unix inclined) from one drive to another.
Version 4.0.5:
Scheduled copies:
- A scheduled copy now properly connects your server, even on subsequent runs. If your destination is a share—or a disk image living on one—and it wasn’t mounted at the scheduled time, the schedule could fail its “precheck” without trying to actually mount. This also fixes a problem where a network image catch-up run…wouldn’t run.
Disk image jobs:
- Similarly, an image job could go dead right after a successful backup. Copy to a disk image on a NAS, watch it finish perfectly, and the job would go amber with “Can’t verify destination” and both buttons greyed out. (Quitting and restarting fixed it.)
Shortcut status:
- Shortcuts is told which end of the job was unreachable. Now, “Get Job Results” tells you if it’s a source or destination problem.
Frequently asked questions
How do I install the app?
Mount the image, drag the app into the "Applications" folder and launch it. If the system blocks the launch, allow it in "System Settings → Privacy & Security".
The app is damaged or won't launch
Reinstalling from a fresh image usually helps. Make sure your macOS version matches the one listed in the compatibility specs.
How do I update?
Download the new version from the site and install it over the current one — your settings will be preserved.
The download link doesn't work
Try a mirror or a download manager. For large files the browser often drops the connection.
How do I completely remove the app?
Use an uninstaller utility — it cleans up the service files that remain after moving the app to the trash.
