applewoods: Mac 維護必備十招

picture from SDMUG

Apple 官方的知識庫提供了維護 Mac 愛機的十招撇步，除了定期進行軟體更新與系統維護工作外，還有一些步驟可以納入考量，裡頭提供不少基本但實在的建議，對於剛加入蘋果家族的人相當值得一讀，可以同時兼顧蘋果電腦的內在美與外在美～

Keep Things Up to Date  
Put Your Toys Away
Name Your Children
Prune Through Your File Forest
Repair Disk Permissions
Back Up Your Files
Restart Your Computer Every Once in a While
Check for Viruses
Optimize Your Hard Drive
Clean the Outside Too

讀到第八點，或許您也會有點驚訝，官方的建議不能說是危言聳聽，算是保險且中肯的建議；不過關於病毒，多少也跟您的使用習慣有關～參考看看 ;-)

Macs don't get anywhere near the amount of viruses that Windows PCs are prone to, but that doesn't mean that they can't get infected. If you don't already have antivirus software, you may want to consider making a purchase. If you have the software installed, be sure to keep your virus definitions up to date

And when your Mac does not behave as usual, the usual way to fix it is to fix permissions then delete the affected .plist.

Please remember NOT to reformat or re-install your system. That's Windows users' style, should be avoid and only use it as the last resort.

Thanks for pointing out.

The removed three items are:

5) Repair Disk Permissions
It's a good idea to make sure that your disk permissions are in good working order on a regular basis—especially after upgrading or installing new software. Open Disk Utility (find it in /Applications/Utilities) and select your hard disk icon in the left pane. Click the First Aid tab, then click Repair Disk Permissions to start the process, which can take a few minutes to complete. If Disk Utility finds any issues, it'll fix them along the way.
[...]
7) Restart Your Computer Every Once in a While
While your Mac can happily hum along 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, you should restart it every once in a while to refresh the system if you're in the habit of keeping your computer running all day and night. This can help clear issues before they arise.
[...]
9) Optimize Your Hard Drive
To ensure the best system performance and keep file damage to an all-time low, optimize your hard drive once a year. Third-party utilities such as Alsoft Disk Warrior Optimizer and Micromat Tech Tool Pro will defragment and optimize your drive. Be sure to back up important files before optimizing your drive.
