Good morning and Happy Friday!
On Tuesday/Wednesday, Apple made its latest operating system upgrade – MacOS Sierra – available for free download on the App store. (For a breakdown of all the features, check out this review by CNET). First of all, please know that you do not need to upgrade your computers, unless you choose to do so. As with all new OS installs, we have noticed a couple of errors that may impact the way you do things on the computer, including one that affects your usage of Microsoft Office 365 client applications(i.e. MS Word, PPT, Excel, etc. on your computer), though this is inconsistent and more testing is needed. While there is no impact on printing, we (the IT Department) recommend waiting to upgrade your system until these “kinks” are worked out. In the meantime, if you do choose to install the new OS, please have a look at this article on some of the most common problems experienced by early adopters. As always, we are here to support you in C135 and C136 with any issues you may have! – Your Friendly IT Department
