How to Do a Mac Backup to an External Drive (13 Steps)
Download Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC).
Double-click the DMG file you downloaded to mount the CCC disk image. In the window that appears, drag the CCC icon to the 'Applications' folder alias to copy CCC to your Applications folder.
Launch CCC from your Applications folder. The first time you launch the program, click the 'Agree' button in the drop-down pane to acknowledge the license agreement, then click 'No Thanks' to proceed to the main interface.
Select your Mac's built-in hard drive from the 'Source Disk' drop-down menu, then select your external hard drive from the 'Target Disk' drop-down menu. If your external hard drive is not in the list, power it on and connect it to your Mac, making sure its icon appears on your desktop. Leave the 'Backup everything' option selected in the 'Cloning options:' drop-down menu, unless you only wish to back up some of your Mac's data. You can also choose 'Incremental backup of selected items', then specify which files to copy using the checkboxes in the file list that appears in the left pane of the window. Note that the external hard drive must be formatted using the HFS+ file system to create a backup with CCC (see References 1).
Click 'Clone' to begin the process. Then Enter your administrator password when prompted to do so, and wait until the process completes. Be sure that you have rewiewed the backup scheme you've specified in the 'What is going to happen:' field near the bottom of the window.

How to Keep a Mac From Overheating (4 Steps)
Download Apple's firmware fix to adjust your Mac's fan. Navigate to Apple's Firmware Update 1.3 Web page. Click on 'Download' on the right side of the page. Open your 'Downloads' file, and click on 'SMC Update.pkg.' Click 'Continue,' then 'Agree.' Click 'Install.' Restart your MacBook Pro.
Place your laptop on solid surfaces. If you use your laptop while it's sitting on soft surface, such as a pillow or blanket, the vents on the back of the MacBook may be blocked. This will cause the Mac to overheat.
Store your laptop in a cool, climate-controlled environment. Never leave your Mac in a hot car or in direct sunlight. When the electronic components get too hot, they won't perform correctly when you turn on your computer. This can cause the fan to malfunction.
Purchase a laptop cooler. If you spend hours at a time on your computer, a laptop cooler can help keep your Mac from overheating. Most laptop coolers are metal platforms that elevate your laptop off your work surface. They have incorporated fans that provide extra airflow to keep your laptop cool. Some require an electrical outlet to power the fans, while others plug into a USB port on your laptop.
