Carbonite continuously backs up your files as long as you have an internet connection. Although there is no support for scheduling backups, you can pause Carbonite from the Carbonite User Interface to temporarily stop Carbonite from backing up your Mac.

Click the Carbonite icon in the menu bar and select Open Carbonite to open the Carbonite User Interface.

When the Carbonite User Interface is displayed, click Pause Your Backup to pause Carbonite and free up system resources for other processes.

To resume your backup, simply click the Resume Your Backup button when you are ready.
