Support Tips For Your Apple Devices

Restart your Mac

Always restart your Mac after experiencing any system-wide issue like a freeze or an endless spinning beach ball. Although you can generally leave your Mac in sleep mode, it’s also a good idea to restart an Apple computer every week or two so you’re working from a clean slate.

Use Autosave

Most software, like Microsoft Word, Excel or Final Draft incorporate an autosave feature. You should locate this option before you start working on your Mac. Often, the default will be set to autosave every 10 minutes. I would recommend changing this to 3 minutes.

Use Google

Many Apple problems have very simple answers. A quick search of Google is always worth your time.

Email Never Goes Down

If you use Apple Mail or Outlook on your Mac or Apple device and experience problems with service, don’t forget that you can always open a browser like Safari or Chrome and log into your mail server directly.

iCloud Storage Full

Check Apple iCloud storage in Settings to find out what’s taking up all the space. My recommendation is not to delete things unless you are absolutely sure that you never want to see them again. Often, it’s easier to buy more iCloud storage. At $.99 cents a month for $50GB the cost is minimal and this service can be canceled at any time. It’s better to look at what you want to delete on your device when you aren’t driven by the pressure of having no space. $.99 cents buys you and your Apple device breathing room.

Apple Storage Full

Unfortunately, if you get these messages and ignore them your Mac will fill to maximum capacity and cease to function. The problem can be fixed, but it’s better not to wait until the last minute. When this occurs you need to move large items from your Mac to an external drive or delete them. Don’t bother combing through emails and deleting them. Emails are generally small and of no consequence. The big-ticket items, in order are: Movies, TV Shows, Photos and Music. It is also worth looking on the Apple desktop as many people store huge files there. If managed properly, the downloads folder on your Mac should be empty. It probably isn’t and you may find large files there that you can delete to relieve your Apple storage.

Empty The Trash

No matter how many files you delete on your Mac, you will get back no space unless you empty the Trash. Try to make a habit of doing this once a day. Many people close all their applications at night even though they don’t need to… but forget to empty the trash on their Mac.

Desktop Clutter

A messy desktop slows down your Mac. Try to keep large numbers of items off the desktop. One easy way to resolve this is to create a single folder on the Mac desktop and place all those loose files into that folder.

iPad or iPhone Crashes and Freezes

These can always be resolved by a hard reboot of your Apple device. This is different from turning your iPhone off and on again. Key combinations to perform a hard reboot are different for each series of iPhone. Check online and you’ll easily find the information you need. Don’t worry, this procedure will not cause any data loss on your iPad or iPhone.
