user65314: My Macbook is having some issues and I have a desktop wallet on it for Bitcoin, Litecoin and Ripple.
I have been told to completely redo my laptop with a factory reset. How can I move or save these coins while I restore my Macbook?

user-1: Rutger's response is probably the easiest. Other options would require an understanding of the wallet(s) used. They might have private keys that can be used to allow immediate setup after reinstalling. For example, the Ripple (Rippex) desktop wallet has a secret key that can be used. 

user45114: Good solution is to save your wallet datas
Depend on what type of wallet your using, if it electrum then you can save and write down the seeds
If it the core (developer) version then you can go into the folder by default, it should be in this location ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/
and just move the wallet.dat to your flash drive or cloud drive
