Techtips Vol1 – Backing up your Mac
Backing up your computer is one of the most important things you can do. In this article I’m going to show you a very easy way to backup your Apple computer.
Steps
- Purchase an external HD. I have a preference towards Lacie HD’s. They are cheap, 500 gigs is $100 at TigerDirect.
- Plug your HD into your Mac
- Go to the Apple in your upper left
- System Preferences
- Time Machine
- Choose Select Disk
- Select your Lacie Drive
- Make sure your time machine is set to On.
- Now whenever that drive is plugged into your computer, it will back up your data.
