This book describes a step-by-step process for maintaining your Mac. You may do the tasks within a chapter in any order, but I strongly suggest first following the steps in Start on the Right Foot.
Every day, update your backup, download software updates, and empty your inbox. See Perform Daily Tasks.
Once a week, perform maintenance such as cleaning up your desktop, backing up your disk, and installing software updates. See Perform Weekly Tasks.
Once a month, empty your Trash, check your disk for errors, test your backups, do some light cleaning, and exercise your notebook’s battery. See Perform Monthly Tasks.
Once a year, give your Mac a good cleaning inside and out, make extra archival backups, get rid of extraneous files, check your UPS battery, and more. See Perform Yearly Tasks.
