How to switch on Automatic iOS and App updates for iPhone and iPad

How to switch on Automatic iOS and App Updates for Apple iPhone and Apple iPad As of September 2017 there is no way of automatically installing updates for the operating system on iOS (iPhone, iPad etc) but it can be done on OSx (Macbooks, iMacs etc) For now, keep an eye on the “Settings” icon on your iPhone or iPad and if it has a number in the top right corner, an update is required. Click on : “Settings” > “General” > “Software Update” However, Apps can be automatically updated on iPhones and iPads. Click on “Settings” > “iTunes & App Stores” Under “Automatic Downloads” switch on “Updates”   Also See the following: Are your Apple Devices up to date?

How to switch on OSx and App updates for iMac/Macbook

How to switch on Automatic OSx updates and App updates for Apple iMac’s and Apple Macbook’s iMac and Macbook users can have OS and Apps automatically updated and installed by doing the following. In your iMac, Macbook, Mac Mini, Open up “System Preferences” (there are a number of ways to do this) including the following : In “System Preferences” select “App Store” in “App-Store” select all the options to ensure that both OS X updates and App updates will be Automatically Installed   The page will indicate when updates were last checked, click on the “Check Now” button to look for yourself. The second way to do this is to open “About This Mac” from the Apple Icon ..and then click on “Software Update” This will take you to the “App Store” where available updates (if any) will be shown to you. App Store – Checks for available Updates If there are NO updates available, you will be greeted my a similar message as below: If updates ARE AVAILABLE, you will encounter a message like the following, which may give you the choice of installing a major update such as Yosemite or El Capitan or Sierra Or you may be offered updates to individual programs such as Safari or Mail or in this case “the Unarchiver” Or you maybe given the choice of installing security updates If given such a choice, it is safest to click on “Update All” rather than picking and choosing, but be aware of the following: Backup – Make a full time machine backup or (update your current backup) of your iMac/Macbook BEFORE downloading and installing updates. Power – Don’t do any updates if only running on battery. Plug the charger in. Failed/part updates because of power loss may corrupt your OS. Internet – Ideally connect to the internet with an Ethernet wire rather than over WIFI. Failed/part updates because of internet loss may corrupt your OS. Restart – Remember to Restart or ShutDown the Computer, leave a few seconds and then restart. Only then will the updates install. Shutting a MacBook lid DOES NOT turn the Computer off.

Apple devices don’t get viruses? :-) ;-) lol lmao

The good news: iPhones and iPads are largely immune to computer viruses and DO NOT need anti-virus software. The bad news: Apple computers such as iMac, Macbook, Macbook Pro, Macbook Air and Mac Mini ARE NOT IMMUNE to Computer Viruses and a top quality and FREE anti-virus program such as AVG For Mac is a necessity. Why you need to install Anti-Virus on your Mac Computer ASAP!! Back in June 2015 we warned all our Apple owners to beware of viruses on their Apple computers. in our post Apple Computers do not get Malware and Computer Viruses (Urban Myth) we now see at least one Apple computer per day (iMac, Macbook, Mac Mini) with computer viruses and malware either slowing down the computer or stopping it from starting or operating properly. Our posts shows you how to protect yourself from such viruses and what to do if you suspect you have one. Most viruses are designed to target Microsoft Windows computers, but there is one type of particular type of viruses called the CRYPTOLOCKER virus that targets both Windows and Apple computers and is NOT fixable without paying a ransom. In July we warned, OPENING AN EMAIL FROM AUSTRALIA POST HAS HAD 3 CLIENTS IN 3 DAYS LOSE ALL THEIR DATA TO THE CRYPTOLOCKER VIRUS. In August we posted, CRYPTOLOCKER Virus still a threat and very active. Please beware and we have heard of incidents almost daily (including one last Friday). The IT Guys were recently called out to a firm of lawyers who had all computers, servers and backup drives encrypted by the cryptolocker virus. As well as having to pay the ransom of $800, they had IT costs of $1,000 and had to close the office for a day. Apple Computers are NOT immune to Computer Viruses, please beware and take precautions as mentioned in our various posts.
