MEGA Client for Mac & Windows: Sync, Back Up, Mount

What OurClone Supports for MEGA

MEGA Upload and Download Limits

These limits come from the storage provider or protocol, not from OurClone. OurClone still has to respect provider file-size caps, API quotas, bandwidth rules, account storage quota, and server-side throttling.

How to Add MEGA in OurClone

MEGA is added with account credentials in OurClone.

1. Open OurClone and click Add Storage.
2. Select MEGA from the provider list and enter a display name.
3. Enter your MEGA email or username and password.
4. Confirm the connection. Once verified, MEGA will appear in your storage list.

Sync and Transfer Workflow

After MEGA is connected, open the Migrate area in OurClone. Choose MEGA as the source or destination, select the folders you want to work with, then choose the task mode.

• Copy duplicates files while keeping the source unchanged.
• Move transfers files and removes them from the source after completion.
• Sync keeps the destination aligned with the source folder.

Task progress is visible in the Task tab, including completed, skipped, and failed files.

Backup Workflow

For backups, first create a backup repository on MEGA. A repository needs a name, a storage path, and an encryption password. Keep this password safe because it is required for both future snapshots and restores.

1. Open Backup and create or choose a repository on MEGA.
2. Open the repository and click New Backup.
3. Select local folders such as ~/Documents, ~/Pictures, or a project folder.
4. Start the snapshot. The first run uploads the full selection; later runs are incremental.
5. Use Restore from a backup record when you need to recover files to a local directory.

Mount MEGA as a Local Folder

OurClone can mount MEGA as a local operating-system directory. This is useful when you want to browse cloud files in Finder or File Explorer, open files from desktop apps, or copy files with the same habits you use for local folders.

• Open the mount area in OurClone and select your connected MEGA account.
• Choose the remote path you want to expose locally.
• Pick a local mount point, then start the mount.
• When finished, unmount cleanly from OurClone before disconnecting your network or shutting down.

Best Practices for MEGA

• Use a clear folder naming convention such as /ourclone-backups, /sync, or /archive.
• Confirm that your MEGA account has enough storage before running a large migration or backup.
• Run a small test sync or restore before relying on a new workflow for important files.
• For large first-time jobs, keep your computer awake and connected to a stable network.
• If authentication fails later, reconnect the account or refresh the token before restarting the task.
