[QUOTE="Nighthawk4, post: 1840189, member: 61193"] If I understand correctly, my 2013 iMac will not do the new trick with an iPad as a second screen, so is there any point in updating to Catalina? If I do decide to risk that, then I have a backup of Mojave and a test installation of Catalina on an external drive. I assume the safest way to update my internal drive would be to wipe the drive and install Catalina and import my settings and data from one of the backups, rather than using SuperDuper! to copy the test installation from external drive to internal, due to Catalina having been split into two partitions. Can SuperDuper! cope with the separate partitions automatically? If it makes a difference, I still have an iPhone and an iPad not yet updated to iOS13, as I still rely on Reminders. Once I have copied the Reminders entries somewhere safe, I will probably update both of those. I don’t apply App updates too often so the fact they are now more difficult to find doesn’t really matter. Sent from my iPad using Mac-Forums [/QUOTE]
