I need to find a blog backup utility that can work with Blogger blogs.
Something such as BlogCollecter -
http://asprise.com/product/blogcollector/ . I have tried this, but it
did not backup all of my posts. Thank you.

My blog: jakeslifeandview.blogspot.com

Actually, with BlogCollector, it was that it would not work for my
blog. It was Webgrabber - http://www.epicware.com/webgrabber.html -
that would get my earliest posts. If it has to be a program, it must
work on Mac OS X.

Hello jakesview-ga,

The official method to back up your blog is clearly explained here:
http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?answer=41447

This method will allow you to easily backup your blog content to your
computers drive no matter what operating system you are running.

The best way to backup your entire blog is to get a second server and
upload all the content to that. In that case, if your first site ever
goes down AND the blogger site goes down, you would have a third copy
available. The chances of the blogger site going down and losing your
content is almost zero because they are a professional website with
redundancy built in.

For a more complicated backup system using Mac OS X, you could follow
the instructions here:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Importing_Content#Blogger The direct,
step-by-step instructions for most users can be found here:
http://wiki.wordpress.org/BloggerImport

Please let me know if you require further clarification and I will do
my best to continue assisting you. All the best,

Thank you for the answer, but I need a way where I can just press a
button and have a folder with my posts in it. The offical method is
good, but takes longer than I need it to be.

Hello jakesview,

I think you should consider purchasing the BlogCollector Standard
version ($68) which has the limitations removed that limit how much of
your website it will backup for you. The reason it did not back up all
of your posts is because you are using the FREE version (which has
limitations).

You can purchase this by clicking on the Buy button at the bottom of
the middle column on this page:
http://asprise.com/product/blogcollector/upgrade.php

This really is the only tool that I can find with Mac OS X support. If
this doesn't work, I think we could try setting up an ftp server and
capturing the files after publishing to an external website.

I hope this helps,

Great answer! Keep up good work!
