May be worth just copying the entire Cyberduck folder across. It's located at ~/Library/Application Support/Cyberduck. There is a Favorites.plist file in there if you just want the bookmarks. Put that in the same location on your new MacBook.

Solution 2

Full answer from the Cyberduck documentation:

Preferences and application support files location

Preferences are saved in ~/Library/Preferences/ch.sudo.cyberduck.plist.

Bookmarks, history, profiles and workspace information is saved in the application support directory. These settings are shared with Cyberduck CLI and Mountain Duck.

~/Library/Group Containers/G69SCX94XU.duck/Library/Application Support/duck/

Navigate to the Library folder using ⌘⇧-L or use Go → Go to Folder… in Finder.

Solution 3

You can drag and drop the bookmarks from the list (Cmd+B) to a Finder window or the desktop, then copy or move those files to your new machine.

These files don't contain your stored password, this is still in your keychain. Enter it anew on the new machine, or migrate your login (default) keychain you can find in /Users/yourname/Library/Keychains/login.keychain.

If your machine is brand new, you could consider using Migration Assistant to migrate all your data to the new machine.

Solution 4

In Sierra:

User -> Library -> Group Containers -> G69SCX94XU.duck -> Library -> Application Support -> duck

Solution 5

For backup, just simple: access bookmarks pages, at here select bookmarks which you want to backup (or press CMD A to select all bookmarks), then drag-n-drop them to Desktop or anywhere

For restore: drag-n-drop backup file (.duck) to Cyberduck!

Following command is taken from a shell script,
```
( ST1=`date`; class_name -C file.cfg    $* > output.log 2>&1; echo START: $ST1 >> output2.log; echo END: `date` >> output2.log) &
```
1. In above shell script, there are few commands, seperated by ; inside (). Google search says that it is used for array, but the shell script is not assigning the output to anything. What probably could be the use of ()?
2. What is use of & at end?

  You could at least post the snippet involving parentheses.

May be worth it to migrate the whole user profile to the new machine :-) I would probably go insane without all my applications, preferences, files, etc.

~/Library/Preferences/ch.sudo.cyberduck.plist might also be a good idea to migrate.

This is no longer accurate. See @dakishimesan's answer, superuser.com/questions/203941/….

This works well, but doesn't persist saved passwords :/

In this case (for scp, sftp), I think you need to config same me: add a key to all session remote

Any idea, how to prevent the loss of the sort order? Is that in the profile files?

This is where I found the bookmark files for Mountain Duck as well :)
