A growing number of people seem to be using Family Historian on Apple Macs (e.g. by installing Parallels and Windows on the Mac). I wonder if anyone is using Apple's iCloud to back up their data? I tried to set it up, apparently successfully, and it tells me I have 5 GB of 5 GB available but that I am not using any storage. I thought that the backups were supposed to be made automatically. If anyone is using iCloud storage for backing up their genealogical data I'd be pleased if they could tell me if there is a crucial step that I have overlooked. Regards, Roy

No I am not using it but 5Gb doesn't seem to be very much if yo are backing up the whole project, plus other things as well. I use carbonite which is not free but is unlimited and I'm already up to 65 Gb ! It's the same maxim - you get what you pay for!
