Use of internet allowances on an iMac 2013...
Hi,
This machine actually belongs to my parents, who are late to computers. They live in the Cook Islands where the bandwidth is ridiculously expensive - at $90 for 8 gigabytes for a month. They can't easily update system software and we've also discovered recently that the auto upload of photos to iCloud was using up Gigabytes of their allowance in one go. I have two questions.
1. Are there any other aspects of the iMac that have the potential to use large amounts of their bandwidth? (They are doing the basics: email, Facebook, to a lesser extent surfing. We are aware of Skype using around 300megs per call as well)
2. Are there some settings that we can use here in NZ to download the updates for them and put them onto a usb so that they can stay up to date. So, not an automatic install but providing us with the installers instead?
Thank you so much.
