When the M4 mini was released I looked at trading in my M1 16GB model and it was worth $300, the new one would be about half price. Today I would only get $230 so the value is down 20 percent in a month! submitted by /u/JeffH13 [link] [comments]

I'm an absolute idiot and my phone slipped out of my hand as I was picking it up. It slid down the keyboard of my MacBook Air 2020 and (to be fair, not very hard!) hit the black edge of the display. As a result, l've now got a fat chunk of vertical lines on the left side of my screen. Whilst it's definitely not the worst it could've been and is definitely still usable, I know it'll have to be replaced to fix it. My question, though, is will it get worse just with general use? I'm a student and home from university right now, and…

Mac for work
by Guest /u/adminamateur- 0 replies
- 8 views
Hi all! I am running operations at a nonprofit and need advice on a good workplace Mac. I personally use an M1 Mac mini + an M1 iPad Pro 12.9 in and love the setup. I’ve had the iPad since 2021 and the computer since 2023. No issues. I got a MacBook Air 2020 (I think), for work and it was a hand-me-down laptop. I prefer it to the HP I was originally using. The ability to use it with my home Mac and iPad makes everything more efficient. However, I think this is a RAM issue (forgive my lack of knowledge) but it is VERY slow. Running two heavy-lift programs pretty much puts the entire machine at a standstill. It struggles to run Canva (which I use a lot) and any com…

I've seen posts from folks who want to create a symlink for individual folders and files inside their desktop folder etc but nothing about making symlink to /desktop itself. I keep all my media files on desktop and now I have just over 1TB. I'm getting new Mac Mini with a 256 GB SSD and need to move all my files to a 4TB external SSD. I thought I could create symlinks for /applications and /desktop Has anyone actually done this? submitted by /u/illustrativeman [link] [comments]

Just bought a new 120hz compatible monitor to replace my old 120hz compatible monitor but I don’t have the 120hz option anymore?

Im using the same hdmi cable that I had when I was at 120hz on my old monitor. I’ve tried both hdmi outputs on the monitor with that same cable and it still only shows 40,50 or 60hz in the display settings. I have a MacBook m2 2023 Also, is there any way to connect two monitors to that laptop? Right now I have an adapter to get 1 hdmi cable out of one of the two thunderbolts on the MacBook, if I buy an adapter with two hdmi or one hdmi one DisplayPort would it work? Because I saw things online saying certains MacBook weren’t capable of having more than one monitor hooked up to it. submitted by /u/Scheidenflussigkeit [link] [comments]

Monitor selection for 2 mbp.
by Guest /u/extratoastedcheezeit- 0 replies
- 11 views
I'm a freelance consultant, I have my own mbp m3 pro, and sometimes clients insist I use their equipment. That said, I have 2 additional mbp (14in m1 and 16in m3) sitting on my desk, that ideally I can connect to a monitor and just swap the TB cable based on which one I need to use. I'm very happy with the resolution of the mbp screens, so I feel like anything less than the overpriced studio display would be a "downgrade". Just wondering if anyone else has a similar scenario and how you resolved it. Requirements: - 27in or greater monitor, high resolution (equal to the level of the mbp that I'm using), that can utilize TB connection so I can easily swap betwee…

I would love if someone could make a shortcut for activating grayscale on the phone after a certain amount of screen time (90min), and a lot of other folks too from what I’ve seen, but no one has pulled that off yet. Even though I want it in order to activate grayscale after a certain amount of time, people could learn from it and make more shortcuts triggered by screen time (that would benefit a lot more folks from what I’ve seen too lo…

MOV Files No Longer Contain Metadata
by Guest /u/ARazorbacks- 0 replies
- 9 views
Hi, I back up my photos and videos from my iPhone to a Synology NAS using Synology Photos. It has worked really well for over a year, but starting at the end of November, my backed up .mov files no longer contain metadata (length, framerate, resolution, etc.) and the metadata fields seem to be locked (I can't update the Title metadata). Has something changed on the iOS side that's causing problems with my workflow (iPhone > Synology Photos > Synology NAS > Windows 10)? Any ideas on how I get metadata included in the output .mov files again? I appreciate any help! submitted by /u/ARazorbacks [link] [comments]

How to Recover Documents in “Files” app from iCloud
by Guest /u/kitt2511- 0 replies
- 7 views
I reset my iPhone 15 Pro to factory settings in the hope that it would improve my battery drain. Prior to that I made an iCloud backup of everything in my iPhone, including the files in my “Files” app. The files were in the “On my iPhone” folder, not in the “iCloud drive” folder. I set up my phone as new instead of restoring from iCloud, how do I get back the files from the “Files” app that was backed up on iCloud? submitted by /u/kitt2511 [link] [comments]

Hello! I recently reached out to an old friend to resolve some stuff we had in the past. I sent them a message, it was blue (we both have iphones) but never said it was delivered or read. But, after about an hour of sending it, the message “___ has notifications silenced.” Is there a possibility I am blocked? Or that they just haven’t responded yet? Thanks! submitted by /u/zoe0001 [link] [comments]

Why does my Iphone 11 feels like its running on 30fps when scrolling or even swiping and navigating on the homescreen and settings. Even when low power mode is turned off it still feels too sluggish and even stutter. This occurred shortly after updating to ios 18, I thought it would be resolved with the stable ios 18.2 but no. Are there any fix for this? submitted by /u/a_l_e_x_2_3 [link] [comments]
