Download Syncovery for Mac – backup and sync software for Macintosh (English)

Download Syncovery 7.98 for Mac
This version works on all Intel Macs and it is compatible with all macOS versions since 10.4.

32 bit versus 64 bit / “Optimized for Mac OS”
On the latest Mac OS version, you may receive a warning once because the Syncovery GUI is still a 32 bit app. We are heavily working on a 64-bit GUI and it will be available well before Apple ceases to support 32-bit apps. The core technology is already available as a 64-bit command line tool (SyncoveryCL64). This tool can be used to run jobs in the background in 64-bit processes. To take advantage of this feature, go to the Performance tab sheet of the Program Settings dialog and choose:

  • Use 64-bit edition for GUI-less background processes

The 64-bit GUI edition will be a free upgrade for all licenses ordered on or after August 1st, 2015.

Please order your license or upgrade now.

On OS X 10.4 or in case of problems, use this Alternate Installer
You can also download Version 7.98 for old PowerPC Macs

Support for Google Team Drives
Version 7.85 uses the new Google Drive API V3 with support for Team Drives. Any one profile can sync with your main Google Drive, or one Team Drive. There is a new Container field with Browse button on the Internet dialog, allowing you to choose your Team Drive.

Additional New Features in 7.85:
– uses much less memory when processing cloud folder listings (such as Google Drive)
– produces much smaller databases (factor 4-10 reduction)
– in many cases, existing databases can be deleted in order to get the new smaller databases. Except if you depend on Synthetic Backup / Block Level Copying or Cache Destination File List.

New Features in Version 7.60

Adds Ransomware Protection: specify the maximum number of files that can be replaced by your profile under Safety->Unattended. If more files than expected need to be replaced, it could be a sign that they have been encrypted by malware, and the profile will be stopped.

New menu item in scheduler menu (info area icon menu): Open Another Syncovery Instance

New Feature in Version 7.55: Service Scheduler

The scheduler can now be installed a system service (daemon), which starts automatically even if you are not logged on to a Mac desktop session, and it can automatically run as root without the user having to enter a password every time the service starts.

To use the service, go to the Scheduler tab sheet and change the setting from “Use: Background Scheduler” to “Use: Service Scheduler”.

New Features since Version 7.20

We added support for Backblaze B2, OneDrive for Business, Amazon Cloud Drive and MediaFire, and features a new, lightning fast database format for the “Cache Destination File List” feature. In the past, the cache database could often be slower than the destination storage itself in terms of building the file list. Now the database should be at least as fast as locally attached SSD drives.

To use Amazon Cloud Drive, click the Internet button and choose Amazon Cloud Drive as protocol.

It also includes SyncoveryCL, the new command line version of Syncovery. SyncoveryCL is available in 32-bit and 64-bit editions. Scheduled and background jobs can be set to be run by this GUI-less process, which makes the GUI and the scheduler more stable because the profiles run in separate processes. You will find the checkmarks to use these processes on the Preferences dialog, tab sheet Performance. This also means you can run jobs in the background manually by right-clicking them on the Profile Overview, and then close Syncovery. The jobs will continue running in an invisible background process, but they do report their progress information to the GUI.
