Speaking of all the computers in the home office, the Mac Air is from mid-2012 so it’s about eight years old. It’s kind of slow compared to my Intel i5 desktop, and Wifi doesn’t work that well. Tonight, there was an OS X update to 10.15.6. I am currently on 10.15.5. I asked the computer to update twice already. Each time the computer would restart and look like it was updating. When the desktop comes back though, the update dialog box is still there, and the About This Mac window still shows 10.15.5. It didn’t give me any error messages so I don’t know what is wrong. Maybe it’s trying to hint that I need to upgrade my main Mac computer.

Apple offers a trade-in program if you buy new hardware. I check my current Mac Air, which though slow, works perfectly fine. I tried the serial number but Apple’s website didn’t recognize it… probably too old. After entering all the relevant data, I got an offer of $140 for trade-in. On eBay, they are going for $150 to $500. Sigh… I’ll probably just keep it since it’s only really used for organizing music in iTunes and my photos. I used to use Google Picasa but that won’t run anymore so I’m using Adobe Bridge 2020.
