Once installed, you can then go to the files on the external drive, right click and select Make Symbolic Link at the very bottom of the menu.
Update: I guess it's not recommended to put in the System Library but the User Library instead. Download the SymbolicLinker App and install it by clicking the rvice file within the DMG file. Can anyone verify if this indeed will work in Lion? Am I asking for trouble using this in my Lion System Library? I'm told to create a Services Folder in the Library of my Root Drive (not Users) and place the rvice there. It smooths the experience of creating symbolic links that could be used in.
I found a little contextual menu plugin called SymbolicLinker.Äownload SymbolicLinker for Mac - Contextual menu creates symbolic links in Finder. Symbolic Linker is a macOS app to create symbolic links without command line. Is that what I would type in my Terminal? (my external drive volume)-MobileSync Backup. How do I get the exact path to type for my location? When I click on the Path button which I place on my Toolbar in my Finder window, I get: Carl's MacBook Pro-Misc. How does one type in the path of the new location in the Terminal? Here's an example: "ln -s /Volumes/External/iOSBackup/ ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup" IBM WebSphere Application Server does not recommend use of. From what I understand, I need to copy over this folder to where I want it on my external drive and then create a Symbolic Link in my Application Support folder. A symbolic link will work if the link is defined at the WAR root directory. I think I'd like to change the locations where iTunes backs up my MobileSync data to my external drive.
