Operation Manual

6.4 Managing online backups

You can have up to five online backups from up to five different computers, but only one online

backup can be active at the same time.

When you log in to your Acronis account, Acronis True Image Home 2012 tries to find out whether

you already have online backups.

If you already have online backups created under your account, for example, performed on another

computer or with Acronis True Image Online, the program operates as follows. It adds the existing

online backups to the Backup and recovery tab and displays at the bottom of the screen a

notification about the online backups it has found.

If you have not backed up data to Acronis Online Storage from the current computer and want to do

this, click Online Backup on the Backup and recovery tab. Acronis True Image Home 2012 will

prompt you to choose what you want to do:

 Create a new online backup. Selecting this item results in opening the online backup

configuration window. For more information on creating an online backup see Backing up to

Acronis Online Storage (p. 124).

 Recover data from your existing backups or manage those backups.
