Description

Utilize Time Machine, the integrated backup utility on your Mac, to consistently archive your personal information, which encompasses applications, music, photos, emails, and documents. Having a reliable backup system ensures that you can retrieve files that you might accidentally delete or become unable to access later on. Time Machine efficiently performs hourly backups for the last 24 hours, daily backups for the previous month, and weekly backups for all months prior. When your backup drive reaches capacity, the oldest backups will be removed to make space for new ones. Although the initial backup may take some time, it allows you to use your Mac without interruption during the process. Furthermore, Time Machine is designed to back up only the files that have changed since the last backup, leading to quicker subsequent backups and minimal disruption to your workflow. Regularly backing up your data not only secures your files but also provides peace of mind knowing you are protected against unexpected losses.
