Is it possible to boot an OSX 10.7.5 backup from a OSX 10.8.3 Computer?

Connection refused error

Not sure if this is directly related to the 10.8.4 update, but upon launching SuperDuper! 2.7.1 (v91) on my Mac Pro 3,1 I now get this pair of errors in Console

Code:

6/7/13 11:43:20.458 AM SuperDuper![67932]: Got disconnected: Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=61 "Connection refused" UserInfo=0x364c700 {NSLocalizedFailureReason=Error in connect() function, NSLocalizedDescription=Connection refused}

6/7/13 11:43:20.459 AM SuperDuper![67932]:  failed because Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=61 "Connection refused" UserInfo=0x364c700 {NSLocalizedFailureReason=Error in connect() function, NSLocalizedDescription=Connection refused}

Easy for me to reproduce; I just quit SuperDuper! and then launch it again.

I see Growl is implicated in the second error. I do have Growl 2.0.1 running, however it appears to be functioning normally and no other programs have caused it to issue errors (at least not that I have noticed).

In spite of the errors, SuperDuper! behaves normally after launch. It also executes scheduled backups successfully (after throwing the above errors upon scheduled launch).

Ideas? Not sure if this is just my system or perhaps widespread.

Thanks!

SuperDuper & Mac OS 10.8.4 - Compatibility

Dave,

I am running SuperDuper 2.7.1. (v91), which is the current version.

I just saw that OS X 10.8.4 Update is out.

Any Compatibility issues with SuperDuper? Is it safe to run this 10.8.4 Update?

I usually try to wait for a few days to hear of any issues. Also my Time Machine is always running�

The same Q will be coming up again soon, when OS 10.9 is out! Maybe you'll beat me to it, and will announce SD's Compatibility with it on your Home Page!

Thanks as usual for the Joy of SuperDuper!

Hope you are doing great! Happy Summer 2013!
