For everyone this week is Apple's iTune 9 just released on Wednesday. Really has a new look but seems a little more complicated to me. Just takes time to adjust to any change. If you have never used iTunes before you should download it and take a look. This is for PC and Mac users. Music, Movies, TV shows, podcasts (like online radio shows), and more. It is a free download.
For PC users, the new OS Windows7 is still on schedule to be released on 10/22.
For Mac users, you should have Snow Leopard installed by now. On 9/11 they released an up date already. So after that you should be running OSX 10.6.1.
I had some questions about MOZY back up. Advantages? For $4.95 a month you get offsite back up of all your files and more. Offsite is key. If you should have a fire, flood, theft or more, your hard drive is safe and secure. Plus, you set it up to be automatic so you don't have to remember to do your back up. (You should back up once a week at least) You can try it for free but is limited to 2GBs. Just click on the box to the right. Remember, it is not a matter of IF but a mater of WHEN. It happens to everyone sooner or later.
Until next week, happy computing.

Stan -- for the "Snow Leopard" do you recommend buying it online or at one of the Apple Stores? I'm running 10.5.8 which isn't what you recommend...so I'll go buy the upgrade. Thanks for the advice.
ReplyDeleteSteve, Buying for Apple on the internet is a good experience. If you have an Apple store near by, lucky you. It is just a good either way.
