- iMac 24-inch, M1, 2021, 256GB 16GB memory. MBA M1 2020 256GB, 8GB memory.
I have a 2012 iMac 21.5" and I'm considering buying a MBA 13" with the M1 chip to replace my very old iPad with 16GB memory. I don't currently have files from the iMac on the iPad due to it only having the 16GB memory but with the MBA's 256GB I would like it to mirror the iMac files. My iPhone is linked to my iMac and all emails and messages are mirrored so my question is: Can I set-up the MBA to mirror my iMac so that I can log into either one from my user account, and find my files the way I last edited them on either Mac? By files I mean Pages, Numbers, Photos, Music, Calendar, Email, Messages, Safari (Favorites, Bookmarks etc), Passords in Keychain, you get the idea. So I would then have the iMac, MBA and iPhone all synced. (The iMac will get replaced with a new one when M1/M2 chip version available). The iMac and MBA would be at home on the same Wi-Fi most of the time, but the MBA would be used when away from home and using other Wi-Fi. You'll notice I'm a novice with all this stuff by the way I have phrased this question(s). If you can point me in the right direction to instructions plus any comments you have I'd be most grateful. Thanks.
