Q: I have been trying to set up backup but now have 3 identical plans to backup can I delete them without detoying vital information.

I have been trying to work out what to do with my back up system I thought I had the automatic back up in place but now it looks to have changed.

When I went to back up and tried to work out what plan I wanted I added more than one plan accidentally. Now when the first backup box appears I have 2 extra plans which I do not want how can I delete these without damaging removing files I have already saved. When I clicked on one plan to delete it it had a warning saying everything would be deleted and could not be restored.

 

How can I delete an unwanted plan without deleting files which I have already backed up and want to keep.

 

Also what is the best automatic plan for me to use.

 

I must make sure all my emails are backed up and contacts and files I work on. I also have a mobile me website.

 

Please advise Thank you.
