How To Backup Origin Games Mac

EA Origin is less feature rich in my opinion to interface with as compare to Steam, Uplay, GOG and Other PC Games clients. In Steam, there is a clear backup and restore feature for Games as well as Apps. In Uplay and GOG, you can simply copy Games folder and then relocate them upon restore. But in Origin, you won’t come across such option for easy backup and restore of already downloaded games.

As Mass Effect Andromeda is one of the recent major titles to release on Origin by EA, I wanted to backup and relocate my 43GB+ downloaded files of Mass Effect Andromeda to another PC, and also keep a backup on my external hard disk, but no luck, so I had to bang my head around for quite some time in searching for an absolute solution only to figure out the workaround instead, which also an official solution given by EA.

Dont move your bulk bf3 folder yet. 2.)Let the origin download to 1%, pause it. 3.)Move your bf3 with the game file in there. 4.)Repair install, origin should pick up @ 70% or 80 90% and not 1%, depending on how new your bf3 file is.

  • Copy the Game folder from Origin Games folder to your desired storage location, the default path for Origin Games is C:Program Files (x86)Origin Games.

Now While Restoring/Relocating your game:

  • Open Origin Client, Go to Application Settings -> Installs and Saves and Then select ‘Game library location‘ to your desired location.
  • Go to the My Games Library, select Game you want to restore/relocate, and click on Install. (If you don’t see the install option means you have not removed the Game folder from original location after Copying. I advice you to rename it instead of deleting so that you have an extra backup.)
  • After clicking install, as you see the installation progress starts to begin, Pause the installation and Exit the Origin client.
  • Now go to the storage drive path you have selected in ‘Game library location’ and paste your copied Game folder in it and Replace(Overwrite) the existing files if prompted.
  • Now after Copy of files gets complete, go ahead and Start the Origin client again and resume the download and You should see the Installation progress bar skips to the End.

Sometimes it doesn’t accept all of the copied files and installation doesn’t exactly progresses till the end, but you save most of the bandwidth was going to waste originally. This could save several bucks for Gamers with limited download bandwidth. I still don’t understand Why Origin has to keep Backup and Restore feature of installed Games so tedious, everyone doesn’t have the Open bandwidth and download limit to install Games of size in Tons of GBs in an instant. I hope Origin brings improvements to Backup and Restore feature in future releases, meanwhile hope this guide helps you.

Choose a backup method

Before you get started, learn the difference between iCloud backups and backups you make using your computer, then choose the method that's best for you. If you need an alternative backup, you can make one in iCloud and another using your computer.

How to back up with iCloud

  1. Connect your device to a Wi-Fi network.
  2. Go to Settings > [your name], and tap iCloud.
  3. Tap iCloud Backup.
  4. Tap Back Up Now. Stay connected to your Wi-Fi network until the process completes.

You can check the progress and confirm the backup completed. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > iCloud Backup. Under Back Up Now, you'll see the date and time of your last backup.

Get help making a backup or manage your available space in iCloud.

Automatically back up with iCloud Backup

To let iCloud automatically back up your device each day, here's what you need to do:

  • Make sure that iCloud Backup is turned on in Settings > [your name] > iCloud > iCloud Backup.
  • Connect your device to a power source.
  • Connect your device to a Wi-Fi network.
  • Make sure that your device's screen is locked.
  • Check that you have enough available space in iCloud for the backup. When you sign in to iCloud, you get 5GB of iCloud storage for free. If you need more iCloud storage, you can buy more from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac. Plans start at 50GB for $0.99 (USD) a month. Learn more about prices in your region.

How to back up with your computer

  1. Connect your device to your computer. On a Mac with macOS Catalina 10.15, open Finder. On a Mac with macOS Mojave 10.14 or earlier, or on a PC, open iTunes.
  2. If a message asks for your device passcode or to Trust This Computer, follow the onscreen steps. If you forgot your passcode, get help.
  3. Locate your device on your computer. If your device doesn't appear on your computer, learn what to do.
  4. If you want to save Health and Activity data from your device or Apple Watch, you need to encrypt your backup: Select the box called Encrypt [device] backup and create a memorable password. If you don't need to save your Health and Activity data, you can make a backup that isn't encrypted. Just click Back Up Now.
    Write down your password and store it somewhere safe, because there's no way to recover your iTunes backups without this password.
  5. When the process ends, you can see if the backup finished successfully.
