freeing up space in my ICloud account?

I keep getting a message from Apple encouraging me to purchase more space for my ICloud account. Currently I am using 4.6 of my 5 Gb space. Can the majority of information be moved to an external hard drive? Also, is it possible that there are duplicates in my ICloud account? Such as more then

Re: macOS Encryption Questions

Same here. Difficulties to log in after backup after starting the encryption process. Do one restart of the mac first after install or later backups. Sometimes the filevault freeze and you have to back up again. So, do first a backup of the clean install. Then you have less trouble if filevault

Re: macOS Encryption Questions

macOS Encryption Questions

I’m fixing to do a clean install of Sierra on my Mac, and I was wondering should I erase the disk using MacOS extended with encryption, or should I use file volt after the MacOS is installed? Also, are there any issues, or potential issues I need to be aware of when using either of the above

raspberry pie projects?

Hi, I’ve been thinking about trying out some raspberry pie projects including building a small asterisk phone server on a pie. Has anyone built any projects and has any suggestions of which kits to buy or a good starting point? Also, how do you access the I/o on these, do you use a connected

I use 1 password family, so for me it’s having the ability to quickly share login information with my wife and the kids. Also the fact it is cross browser/platform, so when I’m in chrome for OS X or chrome on Win 10 I don’t have to worry about remember passwords. Also of course it’s nice to

So what’s the point of one password if the keychain functionality works so well? I have both but never found one password as easy to use as keychain. What are your thoughts? > On Feb 17, 2017, at 1:48 AM, michael babcock > wrote: > > Wonderful thanks! That’s
