Maybe you’re a gamer, and you’re tired of all the new video games being released that aren’t compatible with your Mac. Or maybe you’re simply hoping to upgrade to a new computer, and Apple’s occasionally sky-high prices are just out of your range. If you’re tired of your Mac computer and hope to switch over to a Windows PC, the leap from one kind of user interface to another – not to mention the process of transferring all your files and programs – can appear intimidating.
In reality, it isn’t so hard to switch between the two systems. With a little guidance, you can leave your MacBook behind for good, and start zooming down the road to an efficient Windows 8 PC quickly and painlessly.
Backing Up Your Information
As Technology Guide pointed out, Mac OS X offers a program called Migration Assistant – but, regrettably for our purposes, it only works one way: from Windows to Mac. So don’t bother trying to utilize it for your big move. Instead, you have a couple options to get your data from one place to another. Most files, from music to documents, work well on either system, so it’s just a matter of transporting and organizing them.
You could do things the old-fashioned way: By using an external hard drive. Just plug in your external, drag and drop any data you need transferred, and bring it over to your new Windows computer. If you can, don’t bring your unused file clutter with you. Instead, keep things light – this is a good way to speed up your PC right out of the gate.
For the more tech-savvy, cloud-based backup is a good option. Using an online storage service like Dropbox allows you to sync up folders on both systems without going through the tedious process of moving around a bulky external hard drive every time you need to transfer data. Plus, setting a cloud synchronization schedule now will better protect you from data loss moving forward.
Getting Used to the New Platform
Since Mac programs are DMG image files and Windows uses .EXE applications, your programs unfortunately won’t work on both. Many vendors will offer free Windows-compatible versions of programs you’ve already bought on your Mac, but don’t bank on it. Keep in mind that, whereas program installation on Macs only involves clicking and dragging the icon to the Applications folder, you will usually need to run an installation program to get applications up and running on Windows.
Getting used to the new interface will likely take time if you’re not used to the Windows setup. As ITProPortal suggested, much of this transitional time will simply come down to reprogramming your muscle memory. Many of your favorite keyboard shortcuts are the same, however, you just need to remember to press the “control” button instead of the “command” key.
Protecting Your PC
One of the most important things to do now is install security software to protect your PC from malware, since Windows machines are more vulnerable to viruses than Macs. In addition, the Windows OS slows down over time with ordinary use. An optimization solution like System Mechanic Pro is the ideal remedy to both threats:
System Mechanic Pro combines the powerful AV solution System Shield with all the optimization tools in System Mechanic, the world’s best-selling PC performance software. System Mechanic relies on over 16 years of in-house engineering research to develop ever-evolving solutions to built-in Windows flaws that can accumulate over time. These include: slow program access, decline in RAM, slow boot time, bloatware, decreased web speed, registry errors, fragmented hard drive and more.
System Mechanic Pro adds powerful double-engine antivirus/anti-malware protection. The antivirus software built into System Mechanic Pro has been evolving and refining its advanced heuristics for nearly two decades. System Mechanic Pro is a security solution that regularly and automatically updates with the latest threat definitions, maintaining an ever-expanding roster of specific malware signatures and suspicious behaviors to help keep your PC secure.

JumpCloud® offers a number of resources to help IT administrators preparing for the Apple® macOS® Big Sur release. Any IT teams managing Mac® devices should prioritize getting an Apple MDM in place before Big Sur’s release later in 2020.
Jumperalien Mac Os 11
Anticipating Big Sur’s major, organization-impacting updates, JumpCloud, an Apple MDM, aims to help Mac admins continue to seamlessly manage and secure end user macOS devices, pre- and post-Big Sur, alongside their Windows® and Linux® devices from a single directory platform.
How is JumpCloud Helping Admins Be Big Sur Ready?
Ahead of macOS Big Sur’s release, JumpCloud is helping Mac admins get ready for their transition to support end users on computers running Big Sur with a number of resources:
- A live event: A round table event with Apple experts: 9to5Mac’s Bradley Chambers, and Tom Bridge of the MacAdmins podcast and Technolutionary, October 7th at 11:30am EST. Bradley and Tom will discuss Big Sur’s major changes and how to prepare a smooth and secure transition, no matter your organization’s size or where employees work. Save your seat today!
- Documentation: Technical documentation covering Big Sur readiness topics, like how JumpCloud admins can prepare now, how to easily migrate to and bulk-enroll devices in JumpCloud MDM, and how to block end users from upgrading to Big Sur until your organization is ready.
- Related content: Content to learn from by JumpCloud’s MDM and device management product lead Scott Reed, like his MDM-centric blogs and his JumpCloud Office Hours sessions (he’s back on October 23rd, but before then you can watch his last Office Hours edition on-demand here).
- Courses: Experience JumpCloud MDM when you visit JumpCloud University, a free education hub for any stage in your JumpCloud journey. Walk through the MDM configuration guided simulation, and see what a Mac end user device log in looks like when you set up multi-factor authentication for macOS.
- Community: Join the JumpCloud Lounge, a new public Slack workspace, to discuss your Big Sur questions and share advice with fellow admins. Dedicated channels like #macos and #mdm are the best for these conversations.
“We know how much work goes into preparing to support new OS updates and wanted to help IT admins be as prepared as possible for Big Sur,” Reed said. “For our platform, we’ve been rigorously testing and working with developer beta versions for months to ensure compatibility.”
The JumpCloud Directory Platform offers a single solution for IT administrators who need a comprehensive technology to manage devices, user identities, and resource access. JumpCloud support across Mac, Windows, and Linux devices includes multi-factor authentication, cross-OS configurations (policies), commands, and more.
“According to Frost and Sullivan, the total Apple enterprise management market will more than double by 2024 to $23.4 billion,” Chambers said. “Analysts suggest that we are still in early stages of widespread enterprise adoption of Macs, and Big Sur will help spark growth as Apple continues to consumerize IT and ease of use. JumpCloud can help IT admins as they adjust to Big Sur and manage Mac devices within it.”
New to JumpCloud?
JumpCloud reimagines directory services to transform how IT gives employees secure and easy access to technology. The rise of the cloud, web apps, and remote work made it hard for IT to secure employees while supporting their need to work however and wherever they want: As a result IT teams have wrestled with an increasing number of identity, access, and device management products as they try to recreate what Microsoft Active Directory® achieved in a Windows-centric, on-premises-only world.
The JumpCloud Directory Platform is a modern solution to securely manage and connect users to IT resources regardless of platform, provider, protocol, or location. With JumpCloud, organizations increase employee productivity and protect identities, while enabling convenient connection.
