Mac Mini Basic Setup

Tech Talk MacOS
21

I’ve got my Mac mini setup now. Not a big learning curve. Maybe had to do 20 minutes or so of googling and using YouTube to figure a few things out. And Bob’s your uncle. I’m impressed.

A few newbie questions:

  1. I use Bitwarden. Can I disable whatever the new version of keychain is called?
  2. How do I enable the finger print reader on my Apple keyboard to login to the desktop instead of always having to key on my password?
  3. Is there an alternative to accessing my iCloud Drive other than going through the finder? I like the look of the Files app on iOS. Should I just log into the web version of iCloud and choose ‘add this tp the dock’ option?
  4. I’m running a trial version of Backblaze. It says my external drive is empty even though I can see the contents in the Finder? Or is that a question for Backblaze tech support?

Thanks everyone

I hope this can help you with the Touch ID situation Magic Keyboard with Touch ID - Apple Support (CA)

I don’t think there’s a built-in alternative (outside of the website as you mentioned) but I could be wrong.
