(Bradley Chambers offers some good ideas on how this would work in the previously mentioned 9to5Mac article.) This would offer double back-up protection: Time Machine and full back-up in iCloud. Apple offers iCloud storage in different tiers/pricing I’m willing to pay for the online storage for all Mac files. I want an iCloud option similar ago that for my iPhone and iPad. What if that drive fails or is stolen? Restoring from iCloud means that you still have to reinstall all of your applications manually and set up all of your preferences again.” Restoring from a Time Machine backup is fast, but it also relies on a single drive. However, as a February 2021 9to5Mac has noted: “This strategy doesn’t seem like the best fit for customers in 2019, though. Why hasn’t Apple hasn’t already done this? It’s a no-brainer, and could add a little more profit to their ever-growing list of Apple Services.Ĭurrently, my (and probably your) Mac back-up strategy is using Time Machine for local files and iCloud for offsite back-ups of Documents, Desktop, and Photos. Now it’s time for iCloud back-up for the Mac. Among other advantages: this makes moving your data to a new smartphone or tablet very easy. One of the things that’s extremely convenient in the Apple ecosystem is the ability to back up your iPhone and iPad files to iCloud. It’s likely that the filing is for some sort of internal device. They’re based on a FCC filing for a network adapter of some kind. The rumors comes from Twitter, and is explicit concerning how Apple is working toward an iCloud-focused Time Machine for Macs and new Airport hardware. Those rumors are almost certainly off base, but I’d like to believe ‘em. As noted by The Mac Observer, rumors are circulating of an iCloud Time Machine for the Mac and new AirPort routers.
