This year has been many things for myself and others and I am wishing the best possible outcome for everyone. As we head into 2021 I want to thank everyone who has supported myself and this business. My cat, Shiva, would like to add meow meow meow

Yes ... I have noticed this too, it has affected my Apple Watch as well. This is why I’m waiting for an update to fix this bug. I never expect software to be perfect as no human is perfect... so how could a human write perfect code.

Did you know... I do windows, I’m bilingual!

Have you updated your iPhone or iPad to iOS 14.2? There are 24 security updates involved in iOS 14.2. Using out dated software and technology leads to devices being hacked. I personally have dealt with a few hacks this year, which have been the result of using outdated equipment or software. Using outdated equipment and software allows hackers to exploit weakness in those devices. If you have questions please contact me(Johnathan)... https://www.forbes.com//ios-142-apple-just-gave-iphone-u/

Buying parts from eBay and Amazon to fix a Mac is a good way to get an issue.

If you haven’t heard the CRA was hacked a couple weeks ago. This is a good time to update password and ensure a couple of things. 1. Passwords are not real words 2. Passwords are complex 3. Passwords for important systems are not the same. IE3 Meaning you bank password is unique... 4: passwords are updated regularly If you have questions or need training on password and security measure, contact me!

Did you know Mountain Mac Solutions designs & manages websites? I'm in the process of creating a website for a local company and can't wait to share it when its done. In the mean time, I gave my contact page a new coat of paint. I've wanted to make some changes to my own website for a while now.

Apple is now allowing the purchase of AppleCare+ within the first YEAR of owning the device. This makes me happy!

Batteries can be permanently affected by 35+ degree weather. Keep the devices in the shade this afternoon. I'll be hiding in the shade today!

Just waiting to pick this MacBook Pro and take it back to the lab to save the data!

I was just removed from an Apple group on Facebook for suggesting to hack a Mac to install Mojave in older macs, I find this very entertaining. I do not recommend doing this for various reasons, but someone had purchased an old mac from someone and wanted a newer MacOS on it. While yes this can be done, there are many reasons you don’t want to do this. ... I don’t even mind being booted from the group! I just find this very VERY funny.
