I usually attach my Time Machine backup before I go to bed and plug in my laptop. During the day, I carry it around. This morning I woke up to the message that the backup had been unmounted improperly. At the time, it was mounted. It is attached via a USB-C to USB-3 cable. So, I go through...

Hopefully someone here may be able to answer this. I have a MacBook with a solid state drive. It has not been upgraded to High Sierra yet. My understanding is that the upgrade will change the file system from HFS+ to AFPS. I also use a late 2015 iMac, with a fusion drive. The upgrade does not...

Hello everyone, While I like to do my own research and the answers by myself, after scouring the forum, I couldn't get a clear answer on this. I have File Encryption enabled. Should I turn it off before upgrading to HS? I've read some posts that some get performance downsides when having...
