Time Machine Backup

At some point all hard disks break! If you do not have a

backup you will lose all your information. This includes your

music, pictures, and school work.

Time Machine is a backup utility built into the Mac operating system. As long as an

external hard drive is plugged into your MacBook Pro, Time Machine will backup

your data each hour. For more information go to:

http://www.apple.com/findouthow/mac/#timemachinebasics

1. Attach a USB or FireWire hard disk to your MacBook Pro.

•

Any USB or FireWire hard disk will work – it does not have to be a Mac specific drive• 500 gigabytes should be ample space to use with Time Machine, though smaller can work

• If you use a hard disk that was attached to a PC previously, the hard disk will have to be erased, so make sure any existing data you need is backed up

• If you have any trouble setting up Time Machine on your Mac, please visit the Help Desk

2. When you attach the external hard disk to your MacBook Pro, Time Machine will ask if you want to

use it as a Time Machine backup drive. Click “Use as Backup Disk”.

3. In a few minutes, Time Machine will make a backup of the entire hard disk.

• The first backup may take a significant amount of time depending on how much data you have

• Additional backups will only backup things that have changed or are new since the last backup

• Remember to keep the external backup hard drive plugged in when you’re at your desk working

Important Information on

iPad Wi-Fi + Cellular

While your iPad will allow you to use

3G/4G/LTE wireless service from AT&T

or Verizon, keep in mind that the service

is optional. Unlike the iPhone 4S, youare not required to have cellular service

to use your iPad. In fact, because the

iPad will work with the wireless network

here on campus, you may not need

cellular service at all.

If you decide to have cellular service,

it’s very simple to setup and is done on

the iPad itself. Apple has a step-by-step

guide on their web site. Here’s the link:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4157

If you have any questions, you may contact the Technology Support Services Help

Desk for assistance at 540-665-5555.

servers for you to use for storing your files. Use the Network Drives folder in the Dock toconnect to the file shares. Use your SUnet login and password (the same you use forBlackboard) to connect.
