Archiving to a Disk Image
The Archive to Disk Image command produces a readable, writable disk image that is
easily stored on other hard disks or disc media and can be easily opened to access the
archived content.
To create a disk image of a card:
1 In the Browse area, make sure the Hierarchical List View button is selected.
2 Select the card whose contents you want to archive.
3 Do one of the following:
 Control-click the card icon, then choose Archive to Disk Image from the shortcut menu.
 Choose Archive to Disk Image from the Action pop-up menu in the upper-right
corner of the Browse area.
4 Enter a name for the disk image file. By default, the name of the volume is used.
Important: The name you enter here is the name of the disk image (.dmg) file, not the
name of the disk image contained within it.
To rename a mounted volume of an archived disk image:
1 In the Log and Transfer window, select a volume and then choose Archive to Disk
Image from the Action pop-up menu in the Browse area.
A new disk image (.dmg) file is created on the desktop.
2 Switch to the Finder (press Command-Tab or click the Finder icon in the Dock).
3 Double-click the new disk image you just created to mount it on the desktop.
4 Select the mounted volume on the desktop, then press Enter to select the volume name.
5 Enter a new name for the mounted volume, then press Enter.
