Carbon Copy Cloner 7.1.3
Bombich Software has released Carbon Copy Cloner 7.1.3 to address the handling of iCloud placeholder file remnants from before macOS 14 Sonoma. These files are now treated like ordinary files and will no longer affect the copying of the “real” files that they reside next to. The update also resolves an issue that arose in version 7.1.2, where sparse files located on a NAS volume were getting recopied each time the backup task ran. Additionally, it eliminates errors that would occur when a volume was unmounted while a task was actively using it. ($49.99 new, free update, 28.3 MB, release notes, macOS 13+)
