How Does iCloud Backup Work?

Since released, iCloud has been a game changer for Apple customers. It has completely changed how many people manage their personal files and data. Users no longer need physical media to store their personal data and photos, but rather they are able to sync all of their files across devices and keep regular backups so they know their data is safe.

In order to get the most out of iCloud and all of its functionalities, it must be setup and configured correctly on all devices that you wish to sync. At Macs on Demand, we know that this process is not always intuitive. Macs on Demand can help you transfer and receive files, as well as manage backups of your system.

If you need help setting up your iCloud account, syncing or setting up multiple devices, fixing a misconfigured iCloud setup, or transferring or receiving files - call Macs on Demand today!

Battery Replacement for MacBooks

If you have owned your MacBook for a few years, you have probably noticed a slight decrease in your computer’s battery life. MacBook batteries are rated for a limited number of what are called ‘battery cycles.’ A battery cycle is when your computer uses the battery power of one full charge, but this doesn’t have to be all at once, it can be several partial charge uses.

As your cycle count for your battery increases, its performance tends to decrease. Once your battery reaches or exceeds it’s specified cycle limit, it may very well carry on performing well, but Apple estimates that around this limit is when your battery has a higher likelihood of failure.

If your battery fails at any time, whether it is new or well over its estimated limit, you may be able to have it replaced with a brand new one to regain your battery performance. Contact Macs on Demand today to see if your battery can be upgraded or replaced.
