How to Set Up a MacBook
Next week, I am lucky enough to be starting graduate school. As classes are right around the corner, I knew I needed to get a new laptop that could keep up with daily use, had a long-lasting battery, and would allow me to be as efficient as possible.
As someone with expertise on Apple products, I knew getting the MacBook Air (M1, 2020) was a practical choice. So, I got my MacBook Air, came home eager to set it up, and got to work. However, if you don't have expertise on Apple products, setting up a new MacBook, or starting fresh on an older MacBook, might not seem very practical or intuitive.
In fact, the process can seem burdensome, overwhelming, and time-consuming. In this guide, I show you how to set up your MacBook effortlessly, and in minutes.
Note: The steps below may vary depending on the model of MacBook you are setting up and the version of MacOS that is on that device during the tme of set up. However, steps will only vary slightly.
