Yesterday I discovered that you can put in your serial number for each one in the My Models area and with one click you can find out if your device still has warranty/Apple Care coverage. Yes, even your iPads, iPhones, iPods, Airport base stations, Apple TVs, etc. On the Mac I use the “My Models” feature which allows you to save your specific Mac models to a separate panel so that you have quick access to the specs of all your Apple products. Today I enjoy using it either on my Mac, iPad or iPhone. Long before it was a Universal iOS App, MacTracker was a Mac App. This App is AMAZING as it lists just about every product Apple has ever made including all the specs. Rather than trying to find it online, I just fired up the MacTracker App on my iPhone. I was sitting with MacGroup member Mary Jo yesterday and she was getting a newer MacBook Pro (refurbished) and we weren’t sure if it had USB 3 ports or USB 2 ports. However, like I said I have multiple Macs and sometimes I need to know things about them even if I’m not sitting right in front of them. This is all great if you’re on the Mac in question. You can even dig deeper and get the specs. and Apple will do a good job telling you which specific model you have. I can’t remember did I get that MacBook Air in 2011, 2012 or 2013? If you’re on the Mac in question you can go up to the Apple menu and choose About This Mac. But which ones are they? As I get older I can’t keep in my head any more. Currently I have (actively in use) two MacBook Pros, a MacBook Air and a Mac mini. However, they introduce updates to these models all the time. Those days are long gone and to keep things “simple” Apple just names their Macs: MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Mac mini and Mac Pro. If you had a IIci or IIsi, you knew what you had. I remember the days when Apple used to name their Macs with very specific names.
