Publisher Description:
Backup Scheduler for Time Machine lets you control when Time Machine backs up your data

Supports: macOS 10.8+ to High Sierra +

App features:

  • backup time interval options range from 10 minutes to 1 week
  • option to backup when the computer is idle
  • backup when time interval is reached And/Or the computer is idle
  • app helper is available free from our website to make backups start automatically
  • start app automatically
  • dock/menubar icons can be hidden
  • app only schedules backups, everything else is done by the system

    IMPORTANT: Time Machine backup in System Preferences should be OFF to prevent the system ALSO doing its default hourly backups. Otherwise it continues to do its backups in every hour!

    A free Helper (available from our website) is recommended for optimal user experience to enable advanced functionalities:
  • Starts scheduled backup on 10.9+ automatically (instead of displaying a reminder)
  • Displays Time Machine backup status & statistics

    The app does not need Helper for its basic functionalities:
  • To show Scheduled backup reminder
  • To enter Time Machine

    Simple settings:
  • Time based schedule: Backup starts in specified intervals (10 minutes - 1 week) or at the earliest possible time

  • Idle based schedule: If computer is idle for a specified length of time the backup will start

  • Combined schedule: Time based & Idle based schedules can be made to work together (AND) or independently (OR)

  • Backup Time period schedule: The time range when backups are allowed. For example from 5pm to 10pm. Note: The computer must support "Power Nap" to start a backup in Sleep mode


    Examples:
    #1: "Start backup in every: 6 hours AND when idle for at least 5 minutes"
    App tries to start a backup every 6 hours but only when the computer is idle for at least 5 minutes
    Backups wont be more frequent than 6 hours.

    #2: "Start backup in every: 6 hours OR when idle for at least 5 minutes"
    App tries to start a backup every 6 hours OR when the computer is idle for at least 5 minutes
    Backups could be more frequent than 6 hours.

    #3: "Start backup in every: never and/or when idle for at least 10 minutes"
    App only tries to start a backup when computer is idle for at least 10 minutes.

    #4: "Start backup in every: 1 day and/or when idle for at least never"
    App tries to start a backup every 24 hours whether or not computer is idle.

    #5: "Start backup in every: 1 day and/or when idle for at least 3 minutes" AND Backup between 5pm and 10pm
    App tries to start a backup every 24 hours between 5pm and 10pm if computer is idle for at least 3 minutes.

    Note: In Sleep mode computer can only start backups if Power Nap is supported otherwise conditions can only be checked when computer is running.

    FAQ:

    1. Do I need to disable Time Machine backup?
    This is recommended but not necessary. If it is Turned On the system will continue to start a backup according to its 1 hourly schedule as well as starting a backup based on your own preferences.

    2. Where can I set up a new Time Machine disk?
    All settings are still handled in System Preferences / Time Machine. This app only instructs the system when to start a backup.

    3. How does Time Machine Scheduler work?
    It simply tells the Time Machine app to start a backup based on the app schedule that you set in the preferences. This is done automatically if Helper is installed, otherwise it displays a reminder.

    4. Where can I see the backup progress?
    If Helper script is installed the app automatically shows the backup progress, last successful backup date, time and drive info. If the script is not installed this information can be found in the Time Machine app.

    5. How to open preferences if both Dock and menubar icons are disabled?
    Relaunch the app from the Applications folder or LaunchPad. It will open the preferences window.

    6. Is Sierra supported?
    YES, our free Helper script (available from our website) is recommended for optimal user experience.
