Revision as of 10:57, 11 June 2020

3 items for the agenda today: OS update - to the latest version of Catalina - 10.15.5

In relation hereto - safety and security updates, get the best out of your setting, and Finally - Antivirus/Malware protection.

I am still on the old version, 10.15.4 Mainly (!) because my external Timemachine disk is broken. Yes - backups can be made using THESE instructions.

Absolutely recommended, and this I do too. But I also have a secondary backup especially for situations, that could occur around OS updates. Not that they do - but IF !! I plan to get a USB backup done by tomorrow, and will keep U updated.

But do you know you own update settings? Mine look like this, go to System Preferences/Software Update
