Copying Files Using SuperDuper! First time using SuperDuper and after an hour of attempting to copy files, the process is still in '1. Prepare to Copy Files'. Is this normal?
SuperDuper! has an option to repair permissions on the source volume before copying. Normally this shouldn’t take 1 hour, unless maybe you’ve never run a permissions repair in the last years and the permissions are totally screwed.

I would try this:


Do the permissions repair with Apple’s Disk Utility app.
Start SD, click on the Options… button, then, under the General tab, deselect the option Before copy … Repair permissions on &lt;source volume&gt;.
Start copying.
