An iPhone and iPad is the perfect combination of tech for your parents and grandparents. Its touch-friendly interface makes it easy to interact with and, for the most part, everything just works together seamlessly. So, here is a little guide to setting up an iPhone or iPad for the older generation and some features you may want to adjust. https://youtu.be/B7MYCXnsink AppleID The first thing you want to do is create them an AppleID. This account can be used to sync all their personal information without it getting mixed in with yours. If they already have an email you can use it to create their AppleID. If they don't already have an email then you can create them an iCloud account. You can sign in or create a new AppleID either during the setup process or later in Settings. To sign in to their AppleID after setting up the iDevice open Settings. If you signed into their account previously or during setup you will see their profile at the top of Settings. If your account is signed you can sign out by clicking on your profile and scrolling to the bottom then tapping sign out. You may have to enter your AppleID password a few times to disable services like Find My iPhone. If there is no account currently signed in you will be given the option to sign in or create an account. This is where you would enter their AppleID credentials. Once you have signed into their account there are a few settings you may want to adjust, such as iCloud Services. Start by clicking the profile at the top of Settings then tap on iCloud. All the services set to sync through iCloud are shown here. Some services you make want to take a closer look at are Messages, iCloud Photo Library, and iCloud Backup. Speaking of iCloud Backup, it's a great idea to keep a backup of their device. If they lose or break their phone you will have another way to get their data back. However, enabling iCloud Backup, Messages in the cloud, and iCloud Photo Library will quickly burn through your 5GB of free cloud space which will result in that annoying popup that your iCloud storage is full. So, if you want to use one or more of these services you will need to purchase more iCloud storage at a monthly fee. If you prefer not to use these services you can always disable them. To disable iCloud Photo Library, open Photos and toggle iCloud Photos off. Now, go back and select iCloud Backup and toggle that off, then you can do the same with Messages. The other services listed here don't count toward your data allowance, so, they don't hurt anything being enabled this lighter data will just sync across all of your devices in the background. Home Screen Now that everything is syncing correctly it's time to clean up the Home screen. The goal is to declutter the home screen including only the essentials apps that will the used by the user like Phone, Camera, Photos, Email, and such. Apps like the Compass, Measure, and Home can probably go. On an iPhone, you can get rid of apps by moving them to the App Library. Hold down that app until the options menu appears. From that menu choose "Remove App" and you can choose to either "Remove from Home Screen" which will move the app to the App library or you can completely remove the app from your device by tapping "Delete App". iPad users can remove apps the same way however since there is no App Library on iPad yet the only option is to delete the app. Another way you can handle this is by dragging all unwanted apps into a single folder and moving it to the side. Shortcuts With your home screen cleaned up, it's time to add some more to it. With the Shortcuts app, you can create quick access to different features. For instance, with one tap you can make a phone call or turn the flashlight on and off without having to dive into menus. There is so much here that you can play around with, but I'm only going to cover how to make a one-click call. So,

In dieser Folge erkläre ich euch wie man ein iCloud-Backup erstellt.

Wissenschaftler wollen sich im Frühjahr zu NO2-Grenzwerten äußern Wie fundiert sind Limits für dreckige Luft in deutschen Städten? Ein Team von Wissenschaftlern der Nationalen Wissenschaftsakademie Leopoldina arbeitet jetzt an einer grundlegenden Klärung und will voraussichtlich im Frühjahr eine Stellungnahme vorlegen. Auf Bitten von Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel wurde die Arbeitsgruppe mit Wissenschaftlern verschiedener Fachgebiete zusammengestellt. Geprüft werden soll unter anderem die methodische Qualität von Studien, auf die sich Grenzwerte beziehen. Geplant ist auch ein Vergleich mit Grenzwerten und Gesundheitsschutz-Regelungen in ausgewählten anderen Ländern. Jeder dritte potenzielle Autokäufer interessiert sich für autonome Autos 33 Prozent der Bundesbürger, die sich ein Auto kaufen wollen, können sich vorstellen, ein autonomes Auto zu kaufen. Unter den Jüngeren zwischen 16 und 29 Jahre liegt der Anteil bei 41 Prozent. Das ist das Ergebnis einer telefonischen Befragung im Auftrag des IT-Branchenverbands Bitkom. Die neue Technik könnte künftig für eine grundsätzliche Neuverteilung der Marktanteile sorgen, meint Bitkom. Netzbürgerrechtler kritisieren Apples iCloud-Backups Amerikanische Netzbürgerrechtler der Electronic Frontier Foundation haben Apple dazu aufgefordert, in iCloud vorhandene Backups endlich besser abzusichern. Die vor allem von iPhone und iPad stammenden Sicherungen liegen zwar verschlüsselt auf den Servern des Konzerns, doch der besitzt auch gleichzeitig den Schlüssel dafür und rückt diesen durchaus auf Behördenanforderung heraus. Die EFF fordert Apple auf, das Backup genauso abzusichern wie dies iOS-Geräte schon jetzt sind: Durch einen nur dem Nutzer zugänglichen Schlüssel. Spuren eines einstigen Grundwassersystems auf dem Mars Dank der ESA-Sonde Mars Express haben Wissenschaftler erstmals geologische Hinweise auf ein ehemaliges System von Seen unter der Oberfläche des Mars gefunden. Wie die Europäische Weltraumagentur im Journal of Geophysical Research erklärt, umspannte dieses Grundwassersystem einst den gesamten Planeten. In fünf der untersuchten Krater haben die Wissenschaftler außerdem Spuren von Mineralien gefunden, die auf der Erde mit der Entstehung des Lebens in Zusammenhang stehen.

Folge 223: Strohwitwer with beard and wings for the Win thanks Nymphomaniac in the iCloud Backup with Superstau in GuildWars2

Eine Premiere in der Jubiläumsfolge: Michael podcastet per Skype aus seinem gemütlichen Arbeitszimmer mit Stephan in der nicht weniger gemütlichen Redaktion. Es geht um die hohe Zahl an Verschlüsselungs-Trojaner-Attacken auch im Allgäu, die inzwischen auch auf Macs übergesprungen sind. Erkennen kann man diese Angriffe leider nur schwer, daher sind Backups umso wichtiger. Michael nutzt dafür das eingebaute TimeMachine Backup unter MacOS und speichert seine normalen Daten auf einem Synology NAS. Dorthin wandern auch die Bilder und werden zusätzlich noch in der Wolke auf amazon S3 gespeichert. Stephan nutzt für seine Backups unter Windows Nero Backitup und speichert seine Daten auf einem QNAP NAS. Außerdem: Michael ist genervt von einer Fehlfunktion im iPhone und zusätzlich noch Daten, die nicht im iCloud Backup stecken. Apple tauscht gerade Netzteilnupsis und läd am 21. März zu einer Produktvorstellung ein....

Beim Übercast wird selbst die Blackbox doppelt und dreifach gesichert. Wie das mit den Backups denn so im Detail geht, muss und soll heute im Cockpit besprochen werden. Lieber Fluggast, wenn dir das Gehörte gefällt oder dir Sorgenfalten auf die edle Stirn fabriziert, dann haben wir etwas für dich: iTunes Bewertungen. Überbleibsel Blog mit Kirby und Gittower bauen Wie man einen eigenen Kirby Blog mit Git und Tower aufsetzt: Design & Develop Your Own Blog Wer mehr zu Tower oder Kirby wissen will, der sollte sich noch einmal unsere beiden vergangenen Flüge mit den jeweiligen Entwicklern anhören: Flug #UC009: Tower an Git: Bitte committen! Flug #UC025: Da werden die Kittens wahnsinnig werden. Kurz-Tipp: Watch YouTube with VLC Die binary für die Kommandozeilenbenutzer haben wir ja schon hier vorgestellt. Anwendungszweck war unter anderen Tutorials runterzuladen, damit man sie in schnellerer Geschwindigkeit abspielen kann. Erst heute ist Patrick eingefallen, dass das ja auch mit der verlinkten LaunchBar Action geht. Gutes Teil, vor allem weil man vom VLC Fenster die Größe anpassen kann und es “floaten” kann, so dass es über allen anderen Fenster schwebt: Watch YouTube with VLC. Überschallneuigkeiten Der Emo-Ring Extra für euch hat Sven wieder tief in der Schundkiste gewühlt und tatsächlich noch ein Gadget aus dem Internet gekramt: Moodmetric – Smart Jewelry for Emotional Wellbeing. Falls ihr also gewillt seid auszuprobieren, ob sich die emotionale Reise, die euer Leben unabstreitbar ist, sich als trackbar erweist, so gibt es hier unsere bedenkliche Empfehlung. Wearable Das Elektro-Ganja Wearable für gute Laune hat Sven ebenfalls im Gepäck. Für $299 könnt ihr das Abo bei eurem lokalen Rastaman kündigen und euch ein stimulierendes High holen. Wer süchtig wird darf für $20 5 Elektrostrips nachordern. Die halten bei Make-up oder Sonnencreme nur 1x, wer trocken und sauber ist, kann die Dinger 3x benutzen. CES 2015: Neurowearable that alters your vibe on-demand - Co-Founder Dr. Jamie Tyler of Thync TechCrunch: Hands-On With Thync’s Mood-Altering Headset YouTube Kommentar: REAL Thync Preview! (BE AWARE) Mood Altering Tech Deep Dreamer Realmac Software hat nun eine Software für Googles Deep Dream draussen: Deep Dreamer. Wer also einen alten Mac hat und Patrick’s in der letzten Folge verlinkte Skripte damit nicht zum laufen bringen kann, der hat jetzt die Chance eine GUI zu nutzen. Wenn man eine Grafikkarte mit mehr als 256 MB hat und einen Rechner der schneller ist als ein 2008er Mac Pro, so kann man auch noch mehr aus den Bildern rausholen. Seid gewarnt… der Spaß dauert ewig. Link zum Originalbild Keyboard Maestro 7.0 Die Lieblingsapp von Andreas und Patrick gibt es nun in Version 7. Tröten und Fanfaren bitte. Über-Backups Ein Zwischenstopp in der letzten Episode war nicht genug, nun muss eine Punktlandung her. Destination: Backups. Datenübersicht nach Priorität Das die wichtigsten Daten als erstes, öfters und mehrfach ein Backup erfahren liegt irgendwie in der Natur der Dinge. Grundvoraussetzung für die hier besprochenen Backup-Modelle ist, dass diese encrypted sind, was sich meist in der jeweiligen Software konfigurieren lässt. Bei Patrick ergibt sich aus den vier Festplatten die in den alten Mac Pro passen folgende Hierarchie: Bilder Bootbare Hauptpartition Arbeitsdateien/Projekte Notizen, Skripte, dotfiles Musik Heimvideos NAS Sven hat seinen Laptop wo neben dem Synology NAS alles drauf passt. Das heiligste ist bei ihm ebenfalls Fotos, die dicht gefolgt von real-time Backups der Arbeitsdokumente (Präsentationen und Texten) ist. Weiterhin wichtig ist im der ~/.ssh und Schriften. Einfach die komplette Festplatte klont sich Andreas zu einem Backup. Eine gute Entscheidung, den bei einem Laptop geht das problemlos und alle seine aktuellen Arbeitsdateien hat er auch auf dem Gerät gelagert statt auf einer externen Festplatte. Lokales Backup Time Machine Bei den lokalen Backups steht bei vielen Time Machine von Apple als Hauslösung ganz vorne. Um alles schon schmal zu halten gibt es hier eine Anregung zum Entschlacken der Time Machine Backups: Folders To Exclude From Time Machine Backup’sEssentialMac Apple  OSX  and  Time  Machine  Tips Sven und Patrick haben zusätzlich zum lokalen Backup auch die TimeMachine mit ihren NAS gekoppelt. Synology macht es einem hier einfach, da diese Funktion nativ unterstützt wird. SuperDuper! und Carbon Copy Cloner Sven schwört nach wie vor auf das kostenlos nutzbare SuperDuper. Wer mehr Power will, z.B. bootbare Backups, der kann auf die Vollversion upgraden. Zur Konkurrenz, Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) übergelaufen ist derweil Patrick. CCC unterstützt scheduling von Backups, mehrere Ordner und kann nach Beendigung eines Backups gleich das nächste anfangen. Früher hat sich Patrick per rsync beholfen (und diese Skripte mit Lingon X gestartet), aber manchmal ist eine GUI doch ganz gut und schön. Kurz: CCC macht alles was er will und ist dabei sehr übersichtlich. Was er genau will ist das hier: Eine bootbare Partition per Hauptpartition erstellen und auf einer anderen Partition sichern (2x pro Woche) Eine bootbare Partition per Hauptpartition erstellen und auf dem NAS speichern (1x pro Woche) Projekte, Bilder, Notizen, Skripte und .dotfiles auf dem Nas speichern einmal die Woche Musik + Videos + Archiv von Projekten (Design, Web, Audio, …) ebenfalls auf dem NAS sichern Bei der letzteren Aufgabe hat er sich bewusst für eine einseitiges Backup, also den “ich schubse selbst” Modus entscheiden anstatt eine Sync Lösung wie z.B. Dropbox, BitTorrent Sync oder den hervorragende Cloud Sync von Synology. Bei einem Sync wird immer auf zwei Seiten gearbeitet und über die eine Seite hat man keine wirkliche Kontrolle (Stichwort: Fehler oder ungewollte Löschungen direkt mitsyncen). Dropbox hat hier mit der Packrat Option eine super Zusatzsicherung. Ohne die Option kann man nur 1 Monat Dateien wiederherstellen, mit der kostenpflichtigen Option kann man ein ganzes Jahr an Revisionen wieder aus dem Mülleimer zaubern. Auch BitTorrent Sync hat ein Archiv, welches über einen beliebigen Zeitraum gelöschte Daten aufbewahrt (je nachdem was man in den Einstellungen angibt). Doch ein Sync bleibt halt ein zweischneidiges Schwert und ist nicht das Gleiche wie ein Backup. Weitere Sync Lösungen: Google Drive Dropbox OneDrive Box Amazon S3 und Amazon Cloud Drive uvm. Wie lange hält ein Festplatte Backblaze stellt euch einen guten Überblick bereit, warum es Sinn macht ein Festplatte regelmäßig auszutauschen. Im Schnitt halten 80% der klassische HardDisks 4 Jahre lang. Blackblaze empfiehlt eine HD maximal 6 Jahre im Einsatz zu behalten. Andreas kauft ganz pragmatisch immer, wenn der Rechner ausfällt. Die alten Festplatten nutzt er auch noch als Archivfestplatten für seine Projekte. Patrick tut es ihm gleich und hat zur sporadischen Überprüfung und schnelle Backupmaßnahmen eine Freecom Hard Drive Docking station. Zwei Mal war bei Herr Welker schon Not am Manne und die Festplatte ist Patrick kaputt gegangen. DiskWarrior war hier der Ritter in strahlender Rüstung, welcher ihm bisher jedes Mal geholfen hat. Die App ist mit $120 nicht ganz billig, aber macht sich Notfall umgehend bezahlt. Network Attached Storage (NAS) als Backup Sven und Patrick schwören auf Synology. Dies kommt wohl daher, dass das linuxbasierte Betriebssystem zum Einen hochgradig konfigurierbar ist und zum Anderen von Haus aus eine saubere und durchdachte Benutzeroberfläche bietet mit guten Apps liefert. Beim Nas kann je nach Anzahl der Festplatten und gewählten Raid-Modus, eine oder zwei Festplatten ausfallen und alles läuft immer noch wie am Schnürchen. SynologyWiki: What is Synology Hybrid RAID? Synology: RAID-Rechner Sven hat konstant eine externe Western Digital Red am NAS kleben, auf welche er mit einer Synology App Backups vom NAS selbst überspielt. Die Red-Serie zeichnet sich übrigens dadurch aus, dass sie geeignet ist für einen 24/7 Betrieb. Beide Piloten nutzen ganz vorbildlich ausschließlich die roten Dauerbrenner in ihrem NAS. Pilot Patrick klemmt nur 1x im Monat externe Festplatten an und lässt die neuste Version aller Backups (also auch Musik und Videos) auf diese überspielt. Das alles natürlich encrypted als Disk Image. Die vielen Ordner werden von CCC gut gehandhabt, aber da es über das Netzwerk läuft ist es ein sehr langwieriger Prozess. Das war es auch schon zum Thema redundante Backups DAHEIM. Sven selbst sichert seine Synology auch noch einmal. Patrick noch nicht. Cloud Backups Klassische Cloud Backup Dienste: BackBlaze CrashPlan Amazon Cloud Drive via Arq Alternative Strategien: Um ein kostengünstiges off-site Backup außerhalb der heimischen vier Wände ohne monatliche Kosten zu haben bietet sich aber auch BitTorrent Sync oder der Transporter von Connected Data an. Für Heimvideos, Musik und restliche Backups nutzt Patrick Copy.com. Unwichtige Dateien landet dort direkt nackt und wichtige werden verschlüsselt mit CCC als Ordner kopiert (quasi ein Sync). Möglich ist das ganze durch ExpanDrive, welches viele Cloud-Dienste (auch mehrere Instanzen) als Festplatte mounten kann auf eurem Mac. BitTorrent Sync Gut, günstig, schnell selbst bei großen Dateien. Das ist der BT Sync, und genau das gefällt Andreas auch so daran. Er stellt seinen Firmensetup vor und ist begeistert von dem Instant-Sync. Sonstige Strategien Bilder Für seinen Bilder Backups nutzen Patrick Dropbox, Google Photos und zurzeit noch Flickr. Das gute an Google Photos ist, das man einfach auch noch die Videos dabeihauen kann. Git auf Uberspace Uberspace bieten 10 GB zum kleinen Preis. Ein gesonderter Uberspace Account um Code, Webseiten und Skripte versioniert mit Git abzulegen ist somit ideal. So macht es zumindest Patrick. Nebenbei kommen dort auch kleinere Sachen wie Notizen als verschlüsseltes Disk Image drauf. Auf dem Uberspace landen diese mit CCC erstellen und auf dem NAS gelagerten Backups per BT Sync. Also von allem etwas. Backing up the Cloud Halb-Esoterische Veranlagungen kann man Sven nicht unterstellen, nur dass er äußerst vorsichtig ist und folgendes Setup hat: Dropbox Backup via Synology Box Backup via Synology Lokale Instanzen via TimeMachine Backup der lokalen Kopie von Evernote iCloud Drive Backup CloudPull kann im übrigen Google Drive Dateien runterladen, so dass hier auch ein Backup möglich ist. Backup von iOS Geräten Der Hinweis zum Schluss. iTunes kann ein encrypted Backup herstellen, welches im Gegensatz zum iCloud Backup alle eure Nutzereinstellungen speichert, so dass ihr euch nicht überall noch einmal auf’s Neue anmelden müsst.
