Note that the backup software is guaranteed to work for the current version of Windows Service Pack /. Once a new version of Windows is released, you’ll probably need to buy a new backup software. For example, I bought the previous version of Norton backup just a few months ago for $ 50 when I had Outlook, and now they want to pay me $ 50 more for me to upgrade to a version that is also compatible with Windows 7.Notez all editions of Windows 7 already come with a high-backup and restoration, and the more advanced editions, also supports the backup on the network. So make sure before buying this product really gives you something you do not already have. Rating: 1 / 5
We bought a second copy of this book from Amazon in January, and decideed to return it, unopened, as we chose to use the Windows 7 instead of safeguarding our second machine, after a mixed experience with the copy of first order. I returned to Amazon in the original carton and has been responsible for costs of $ 5 back by their prepaid categorize. Then I was sent a notice that they have been deducting 50% of the hold price (YES – half of the whole!) Because he was not in perfect condition – the box was ” crumpled “a small – because that’s how I got it. Remember, all you get is an “empty” box, a card with the license, plus a disc of paper sleeves. Now, remember – the box was still sealed!. When I protesed this unfair treatment, Amazon has agreed to refund the other half of the hold price “as a courtesy to the consumer” – not because the policy of 50% penalty is unreasonable, but because “they like me.” SO Warning: this is essentially a non-returnable. Note: Providers listed here often charge more than Symantec itself for this product if you need an update (he Symanted to $ 50). This is an extraordinarily terrible deal at $ 50 – $ 65, if Amazon had it listed for as small as $ 30 at times, which is more reasonable Note: 2 / 5
This is not a significance, but the commentary. I do not know how Amazon. com may be accessed at this moment it is not even available on the Symantec site. There was speculation he was to be released November 16, 2009, but is now and still no mention other than here. Why 1-2 months shipping? In addition, Version 15 is supposed to support Windows 7, but the information above shows that WinXP.J Outlook and like it version 14 and have come to rely on him, but there is no support in Win7 .

It’s more a Microsoft Windows issue honestly. I have XP, VISTA (shit), and Windows7. I am not able to return to another machine on the network. The backup on DVD seems to have worked (do not know if I tried to restore from it). Takes too much time and too many DVDs to be matter-of-fact. Hang on to your installation disks, save the mission critcal copying files somewhere and that’s about the best you can do. The hold of this product has been wasted money. Rating: 1 / 5
About 6 years I used Ghost 9. 0 to make a backup of my PC. As my hard drive crashed recently, I lost some personal photos that were only available on this backup. Over the years, I upgraded to Ghost 10. 0, Ghost 2003, and just bought Ghost 15. 0. I tried to restore ancient backups, only to have Ghost 15. 0 refuse to play the Ghost 9 image restoration. The following is a transcript of the support call I made to Symantec (Norton): Rathish: it is a ghost image 9 V2i which is not supported by Norton Ghost 15.M. Mark Allen: Ok, so how can I restore my backup? I use VistaRathish: Let me check informations.Allen Mr. Mark: Merci.Rathish: Thank you for your patience, I am searching this issue, would you wait a few minutes? Mr. Mark Allen : OkRathish: Delight keep attente.Allen Mr. Mark: okRathish: Ghost Version 9 backup is not supported on a Ghost 15 we did not feature to restore the Ghost image 9M. Mark Allen: There is no way for me to recover a backup, Ghost, with a newer version of Ghost at all? Does this mean that my backup files are completely unrecoverable? Rathish: Do you have Ghost 9 cd? Allen Mr. Mark: No, I do not. I have Ghost 10. 2003, and 15. 0. . . . Rathish: Not since Norton Ghost 9 is an endeavor version of Ghost and Norton Ghost 15 is a product of home user that is the reason, Ghost 15 is unable to detect the image. Mr. Mark Allen: Rathish, this circumstances is improper. I have been buying Norton Ghost for the past 6 years, only to be told that I can not restore a backup I did with your product! Delight give me a solution to this question.Rathish: Norton Ghost 15 is a product of home users and is designed in a different technology and Norton Ghost 9 is an enterprise product with a different technology for take a picture and Norton Ghost 15 does’nt have a feature to restore the image that was taken by Ghost 9.M. Mark Allen: So, Norton needs to exchange these disks for me or provide me with Ghost 9 so I can restore this backup! Rathish: From Ghost 9 no longer in production, we don t have a CD for Ghost 9M. Mark Allen: Norton has not kept a backup copy of Ghost 9. 0? Rathish: As this is an endeavor version and is no longer in production, we do not have a copy of the ICD. Mark Allen: How can I restore my backup, made with your product. . . ? Rathish: only by Norton Ghost 9, you can restore the image. As you can see above, this software is a waste of time! Find another back up alternative to Ghost 15. 0 as shown above you just what your backups will be a value in 6 years! Rating: 1 / 5
