### Mac
79 85
Mac computers rely on either network accounts or local accounts. We will soon transition all Mac computers to local accounts because of problems many people have encountered Macs & network accounts.
80 86
81
-For Macs with local accounts, users will have administrative access with permission to install and update software. The SBGrid Installer will be used to access the SBGid software tree and will allow users to install and update the software independently. These computers are backed up via Crashplan, hosted by HMS. If your Mac is not backed up, or you receive warning messages about Crashplan backup failures, please contact us immediately to ensure that no data is lost.
