MacMaven can visit your home or assist remotely
Make sure to read our guidance on how to hire a Mac tech support company.
System setup
If you have a new Mac, iPhone, or iPad, we will help you get the most out of it. We can transfer your files from other Macs or PCs, get your e-mail up and running, set up your network, and help you sync your data using services such as iCloud, Dropbox, or Google Drive.
Backup solutions
We can recommend and install macOS data backup solutions, local (e.g. Time Machine, Time Capsule) or cloud-based (e.g. Backblaze).
Data recovery
Hard drive failure or accidental deletion of your files can be devastating. (Always back up your data!) In many cases, we can recover your data for a fraction of what a clean-room recovery would cost.
Wi-Fi for large homes and apartments
A single router does not always work well in larger homes or pre-war apartments. We can set up your network to blanket your home with strong Wi-Fi using the latest mesh routers.
Photos management
MacMaven can help you organize your photos, load your photos into cloud services, and share your photos with friends and family. We’ll also help you back up your photos for safekeeping.
Storage management
If you’re running out of storage, we’ll give you several options to reclaim drive space.
Surveillance
Wireless surveillance cameras are now extremely affordable. We’ll set up the networking for remote monitoring of your apartment. Video footage can be stored on your own server or in the cloud.
Home theater and audio
MacMaven is well-versed on the latest home theater and music streaming devices. Whether it’s Sonos, Google Home, or high-end AV equipment, we can help with your purchasing decisions and installation. We can also help you organize your music library.
Parental controls
You can restrict and monitor your kids’ application and internet usage, right from your Mac, iPhone, or iPad. We set up and support Screen Time, Apple’s parental control technology built into macOS and iOS.
Software support
To name a few applications we support for our clients: Microsoft Office 365, iWork (Pages, Numbers, Keynote), web browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox), Photos, iTunes, Quicken, virtual machine hosts (VirtualBox, VMware Fusion, Parallels), and 1Password.
