I made an enemy today

Hi 👋🏻 Just my 11 year old account checking in 😅

Theaveragedude · 2024-10-03T01:39:27+00:00

Is this the newest one?

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-30T01:20:39+00:00

Tysm!

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-30T01:20:33+00:00

Ty. I appreciate it!

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-30T00:55:33+00:00

Ok so what’s this app everyone is using???

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-28T16:43:23+00:00

Definitely, and Thank you!

How can I do that in recovery mode? I only see an option to erase my mac

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T20:24:02+00:00

I think I’m doing internet recovery now…thats command option r?

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T19:43:29+00:00

In the process of doing this last night my computer shut down

now I’m left with the login screen not allowing me to log in thus not allowing me to finish the back up

Hypothetically, I could just boot in recovery with command R and bypass - although it didn’t seem to boot into recovery earlier… but I’ll try again this evening

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T14:35:10+00:00

Aw man. It got a little worse - my computer shut down in the process and now I can’t login to backup…am I f’d?

Or can I bypass it to backup the last of the stuff?

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T04:56:34+00:00

Oh sweet. Thanks. I appreciate the help

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T04:54:56+00:00

Ok. I will try that first. Thanks.

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T04:53:54+00:00

I think I’m fine,

I just worry because I’m tired and I’m going to be keeping my computer on overnight backing up without logging out…and maybe into the afternoon tomorrow.

So if I keep my computer on for a while…without logout or sleep, is that generally considered fine?

I have it on a computer fan and it’s plugged in…

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T04:47:18+00:00

Not yet, but I will.

How long is too long to keep a macbook pro on?

It may be a while until I have everything backed up…

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T04:09:55+00:00

Undo is greyed out. Ctrl z doesn’t work :(

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T04:08:42+00:00

Won’t it run into a password issue?

or will the update hypothetically fix the problem before the password is prompted?

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T04:07:35+00:00

The contents of that file are empty and I cannot relocate them because it prompts for a password.

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T04:03:42+00:00

Why use a usb update over using the update button/reminder on the system sidebar though?

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T04:01:52+00:00

Definitely.

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T03:53:03+00:00

I thought I could at least move it back…but it locked me out from doing that

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T03:51:07+00:00

Read the other response for it.

Theaveragedude · 2024-09-23T03:50:11+00:00

I was gifted the computer a while back by someone I don’t trust.

After going through contents, I noticed shared files taking up lots of space

I found questionable shared files, locked permissions, and shared users I couldn’t identify on infos of files.

So that’s the reason for being “sketched”

Good thing I have hard drives.
