Save your Mac’s data before selling it
Your Mac, your documents, your Apps. How many things do we have on it? If you have already bought a new Mac and have it with you, We teach you how to transfer data from one Mac to another. If, on the other hand, you are going to sell your Mac before getting a new one, we recommend making a backup with TimeMachine. To do this, it is as simple as connecting an external hard drive to your Mac, and in Settings> General> TimeMachine start the backup.
You can also count on iCloud to save the most important things on your Mac. Photos, documents, contacts, notes Perhaps it is more than enough if you use your Mac to browse the internet and manage some documents. Don't have enough space in iCloud? In this case, take advantage of the three free months we give you of iCloud +. They will come in handy!
How to format your Mac
Now, with your information saved, it is time to delete all the information on your Mac and format the hard drive before selling it. You can usually do this by following these steps.
- Step 1 - Go to System Settings > General
- Step 2 - Enter the Transfer or reset option
- Step 3 - Click on delete content and settings
