unDock

Version 2.0

Time machine is wonderful, but it makes a mobile Mac user cry- waiting for a backup to finish or cancel before we rush to a meeting makes life difficult. unDock adds a simple but critical piece of functionality to your Mac- an "Eject All" shortcut with super powers.

  • Either lives unobtrusively in the menu bar or entirely in the background
  • Eject all removable drives with a single click or key strike
  • Cancels Time Machine cleanly if running a backup
  • Provide your own AppleScripts to run when triggered

Available for Mac OSX 10.6+

Requirements: Compatible with Mac OS X 10.6+.

No joking around here, unDock really works. The Mac App Store reviews are all the same, saying thank you to the folks at Flying Paper Software for solving one of the little pains in the #@% known to make a grown man cry.

The app has one purpose in life and it does it well. Don't let it's simplicity fool you. It is very powerful. I love that you can run scripts when disks are "unDocked". It gives you nearly endless possibilities.

I use Time Machine on an external drive at work, but I quite frequently need to unplug on a minute's notice to bring the laptop to a meeting or discussion. Before unDock, if Time Machine was doing a backup at the time, I'd either have to leave the laptop or grit my teeth and pull the cord out, causing OS X to give me sundry stern looks and disapproving lectures. Now I just hit the shortcut, wait a few seconds, and I'm off.

Works like a charm. Certainly one of the most useful apps I have ever bought!

Where can I find AppleScripts?

We're working to build a compendium of AppleScripts you'll find useful- as well as a submission system for you to share your own. Coming soon!

What kinds of drives are supported?

The removable kind- most specifically USB or Firewire. It ignores any locally mounted (SATA, for example) drives, as well as disk images, CD, and DVD drives.

How is this magical thing done?

The standard- funny little elves, unicorns, and such. No, really, it's not that complicated- unDock leverages OSX' own APIs to identify and eject removable drives. It's that simple!
