When deleted are they deleted from the backup, too? I have Carbonite online backup. That keeps current within 30 days. Why would I want a backup of files in long past configurations? It does backup actual files, correct, but in past versions unless it hasn't changed since backup. Second, as for Revert File in Text edit: I know the number of past versions is limited; I use that for word processing. How long does OSX maintain them on a file that's been modified dozens of times over many months or years? Pls. advise and explain to someone who knows little of OSX even now... thanks.</p></blockquote><p></p>
