My MacBook Woe: I got up close and personal with city's snatch'n'dash crooks (aka some bastard stole my laptop)

Oh Matron!

Re: The next thought is .....

And a great article on the virtues of Time Machine and iCloud Drive....

I upgraded my iPhone to the iOS 13 beta a couple of weeks ago, but due to an issue with a single app, had to downgrade. But, of course, you can't restore your data from iCloud if it's come from a more recent OS. So, I lost a few days of data. Not the end of the world, but such a simple mistake was enough to ensure that my backups are frequent

Having had two laptops and an iPad stolen from home (in one heist), and having had all backing up automatically, I really can't stress enough how simple Apple have made this.

I do feel for you. Especially a $2000 deductible.
