  I have an iMac, but no other Apple product, and given the long list of problems on the pages of the community regarding the update for Sierra, is there an advantage to update me?

  You won't see anything, but the problems reported here most of the time. This is a support forum. People without problems, much more numerous than those having problems, but they are not seeking this community to report this fact.

  I have updated both my 2014 11 "MBA and my iMac 2011. No real problem. Performance on the iMac has been well below normal after the upgrade, but pretty much a reboot fixed that.

  Hi John 2078 Tito.

  I understand that you have updated your iMac and Apple Watch and now you're curious about unlock your iMac using your Apple Watch. I know that it is a nice feature to be able to quickly and safely unlock your computer, so I'm happy to help you.

• I have an IMAc running on the latest version of El Capitan. MY blutooth followed pad has a mind of its own - opening windows and text highlighting / deletion.  In addition to this my screen keeps freezing and the spinning ball will appear.

  I have an IMac running on El Capitan 10.11.6. My bluetooth followed pad has a mind of its own - opening windows and text highlighting / deletion.  In addition to this my screen keeps freezing and the spinning ball will appear - I have to hold down the back of the screen to force it to close.  This message of the 2 line took almost an hour to type as I have no control on the touchpad.

  Hello Kluggerjo,

  Thank you for reaching out to the Community Support from Apple. I know how important it must be able to count on your devices work as expected, and I have a few steps that should help resolve the behaviors you see.

  I would recommend to go by resetting your management system (SCM) controller. MSC helps control and regulate different material on your Mac, including Bluetooth systems.  This article will guide you in this process: reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac.

  If you still experience the issue after the test, you can test the behavior to a test user. This will help us to determine if the problem is systemic or isolated to your user account. This article will guide you in this process: How to test a question in another account on your Mac user

  If the behavior is duplicated to the test user, I'd recommend reinstalling El Capitan. This will not delete your data. To reinstall using the recovery mode, take a look at this article: How to reinstall OS X

  If you experience any problems or have any questions, please let us know. The entire community is here to help.
  -Best regards

  Hi, I have an iMac 27 "(mfg mid-2010) bought in Singapore." I travel in North America. The computer is still in good condition and want to know if I can take it. For most electronic devices, the different current/voltage in North America that makes them more or less useless, but laptops, for example, have the adaptability between the two parameters of current/voltage. The iMac has this capacity? The food fits North American power?

  Yes, he does.

• I have 2 imacs and a laptop computer and you want to back up all three wireless via time capsule on my existing wifi network. If we can also use the time capsule as my wifi and replace my uverse wifi, that would be great. possible?

  I have 2 imacs and a laptop computer and you want to back up all three wireless via time capsule on my existing wifi network. If we can also use the time capsule as my wifi and replace my uverse wifi, that would be great. possible?

  If you want to make sure that you will be able to get the Apple support in case of problems or questions with your backups, you must use the wireless Time Capsule to back up your Mac.

  As long as the time Capsule provides a wireless signal, you can decide who to your 'main' network, then use it wireless Uverse for "guest", or children. If you do not need the Uverse router/modem wireless at all, it is possible to turn off wireless on the device and make it work only as a support modem/router...with Uverse wired.

  At this point, you can start thinking about how you want to configure things and get back in touch if you need some advice on how to do it.  We need to know what operating system that uses the Mac that you normally use to administer the time Capsule, provide good instructions, if you need it.

• Can I update to El Capitan directly from Lion?  I have an iMac 24 "early 2009.  I want to do this?

  I think the Lion upgrade completely to El Capitan.  First of all, can I do this? I have an IMac in early 2009.  Are there reasons why I wouldn't want to do that?

  Well, we can tell you that you should or should not pass, that decision is yours alone.  We can tell you the benefits of upgrading, but ultimately, it is for you to take advantage of them if you wish.

  To upgrade to El Capitan, your computer must be one of the following conditions:

  • iMac (mid-2007 or newer)
  • MacBook (late 2008 or early 2009 or newer aluminium)
  • MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
  • MacBook Air (late 2008 or newer)
  • Mac mini (early 2009 or newer)
  • Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)

  So, if you have a 2009 iMac, then Yes, your computer can handle the upgrade.  You would from the App Store.  If you choose, make sure that you back up your system with Time Machine or something like CarbonCopyCloner.  Obviously, the upgrade: a more stable, secure system, and that you use the latest version of Safari, which is more stable and more secure than previous iterations.
