Hi Dave, just want to make sure I did things correctly. I, too, have never used Terminal before.
I, too, used the old script. After reading the instructions above, this is what I did:
1) In terminal, I typed ------> sudo mdutil -i on "/Volumes/backup".
I was asked for my password. A message appeared saying "indexing enabled on /Volumes/backup" . So far, so good.
2) I dragged my backup drive icon (image?) from the desktop to the spotlight privacy pane. It took it, no problems.
3) I launched superduper. In the Advanced options, my "Run shell script after copy completes" box was checked, with the old disable_spotlight script still there. I unchecked the box.
4) I trashed the disable_spotlight script from my Application folder.
Did I do everything correctly? Were steps 3 & 4 necessary?
Thanks for your help.
