TouchBack
About TouchBack
SpeedTools TouchBack is simply the fastest and easiest backup software on the market
today. But don't let TouchBack's simple interface fool you: with a little creativity TouchBack
can perform nearly any automated task or series of tasks with the simple press of a button
on your external drive (if equipped) or the click of a single key on your keyboard.
Figure 1. The TouchBack Main Window

Using TouchBack
The first task to setup TouchBack is to tell TouchBack which button or key to
monitor for being pressed. This may be a button on the front of your external disk
drive or a single key or key combination from your keyboard. You may configure
as many or as few tasks to execute as you wish. You can execute as many tasks
simultaneously as you wish as well.
At the top left area of the Main Window (see Figure 1) is a menu which will contain
all the supported devices which you can configure to trigger a backup. Select one
device to configure at a time.
After you have selected a device to configure, select a specific button or key from
the menu at the top right. (This second menu is generated automatically based on
the characteristics of the device you select.)
Note: Please be sure to assign a unique key or key sequence not already in
use by your computer's operating system.
Next, you will need to decide what action you want the item you just selected to
actually do:
Would you like your button or key press to open a program or file?
Or,
Would you like your button or key press to automatically copy the files and
folders you have chosen to the specific location you have chosen?
Opening an Executable Program or Document
If you would like TouchBack to open an executable program or a document, select
the radio button called "Auto Open Application or File." Next, select what it is you
wish to open. You can do this by dragging its icon into the radio button's group box
or clicking the "Choose..." button.
Remember, TouchBack can open any executable or document file. On the Macintosh,
for example, TouchBack could run an AppleScript which you've specifically created
to do some task or series of tasks. On Windows and Macintosh you can have
TouchBack simply open a folder for you by pressing a key.
Copying a File and Folder Set to a Specific Location
To have TouchBack backup a set of files and folders of your choosing, select the
Chapter 2. TouchBack Page 3

"Auto Backup Files and Folders" radio button. Next, you will need to choose which
files you wish backed up and where you want them stored.
To select a backup source file set, drag and drop as many files and folders into the
"Items To Backup" list. Alternatively, you can click the "Add..." button and select
them from the standard "Open File" window.
To select a backup destination, drag and drop any drive or folder icon into the
"Backup To" list box. Alternatively, you can click the "Choose..." button and select
a destination from the standard "Open File" window
Once your TouchBack task has been configured, you are ready to use TouchBack
or continue to create more tasks to be executed from different buttons and key
presses. When finished, you can quit the TouchBack configuration utility and you're
ready to call on your new task(s).
