It’s not letting me change color of text on photos?
by Guest /u/itsmeMR3- 0 replies
- 19 views
So basically I wanted to add text to a photo. So I decided to just make a text and it lets me do the basic stuff right? Like it will let me make text bold and etc. But here is the part that absolutely pisses me off. I try to change the color and it automatically closes for some reason? And then I try to open it back up and It wont work. So I exit the app for a second and come back and guess what? It does the same glitch again. So can you help me with this? submitted by /u/itsmeMR3 [link] [comments]

This has been a problem that I can remember for at least 2 years now. How can I get these photos? It’s been saying this on iMessage for almost 12 hours now. You’d think they’d have this fixed by now. submitted by /u/Gibnez [link] [comments]

Apple soldering their ssds is just dumb.

If it didn't fail it would be alright but thats not the case! Just search "ssd gate apple" on youtube. If something fails a lot it should be replaceable. The problem is if the ssd is soldered to the board you have to change then whole board.It is very possible for apple to make it that way without sacrificing portability. Don't believe me?

Using a trashcan Mac Pro as an entertainment hub
by Guest /u/Haquistadore- 0 replies
- 9 views
I currently use an AppleTV 4K as my home entertainment hub, with two of the classic HomePods as my speakers connected to my OLED TV. It’s a decent setup, but I’ve always thought about the benefits of swapping out the AppleTV with a Mac Mini and having that be my defacto hub. Not sure if any of you have thought about doing something like that, but there are benefits - assuming that using my TV as a computer monitor doesn’t somehow mess up the fps. Instead of having dedicated apps, I’d be streaming straight from the sites, and with the right VPN I could also stream from websites that I don’t otherwise have access to in my home country (Canada). A Mac Mini remains my f…

Trying to remove all of my passwords on my work MacBook
by Guest /u/AdCareless65- 0 replies
- 10 views
I'm in the process of removing all of my personal data from my work MacBook. I just don't want anything personal on it. One of the first things I did was log out of iCloud. However I thought it remove all of my passwords from my Mac as well, but they are still there. I fear that if I try and delete them all now I would lose them on my personal Mac, iPhone, iPad, etc., even though I logged out of iCloud. So now I'm not sure what to do. Any assistance would be great. Thanks. submitted by /u/AdCareless65 [link] [comments]

Installed a SSD from a Windows machine in my 2015 Pro. How do I get rid of this Windows recovery partition?

https://b.thumbs.redditmedia.com/5Kufi4x37Q3MkH5u7C6sIjbIwAZI4rv_DbCv9TUwSlc.jpg If I start up the Pro, it will automatically boot to the Windows recovery partition. I have to hold down Option key to view the option to boot to Mac OS. What is the best way to delete these partitions so that the SSD behaves exactly as though it were originally a Mac SSD? I would like to eventually dual boot Mac and Windows. So should I keep this after all or should I erase it and install Windows via Boot camp? Thanks! submitted by /u/EhOhOhEh [link] [comments]

How to open terminal/iterm2 window in a folder quickly?
by Guest /u/revenge1kuzus- 0 replies
- 11 views
In windows if you right click anywhere in an opened folder window, there is a choice “Open In Terminal”, and you can launch a shell in the same directory as the folder. In Mac there seems not such options to open a builtin terminal. I installed iTerm2, and iTerm2 has a service “New iTerm2 windows here”. But first you have to click on a file, and second the certain service is in the secondary menu. So it’s not a high efficiency way. I wonder how you guys do this, are there any keyboard shortcuts or tricks or any configurations? submitted by /u/revenge1kuzus [link] [comments]

Hey guys, Im having installation trouble with MacOS, i've tried so much im at my wits end a bit, so any help is appreciated. I've recently upgraded some older iMacs and put SSDs in the devices. I always boot into Internet Recovery, which error's me on installation: ''An error occured while preparing the application, please try again'' I formatted the drives as MacOS Journaled (Extended) and has a GUID partition map. When internet recovery didnt work, I created installation media with transmac and downloading the Sierra dmg from Apple's website. But i can't get it to boot off the USB. In startup disks nothing appears and i always boot into internet recovery as previo…

Moving 500GB files between two external drives.
by Guest /u/Technical-Fly-6835- 0 replies
- 10 views
I am moving 500GB worth of files between two external drives using CCC. Most of the files are music and photos and few are video files. source drive is a WD formatted in NTFS and destination is a WD formatted in ExFAT. The tool has copied 10GB worth of files in 5 hours. At this rate it will go on for 10 days. Is this normal ? I wanted to do this over manually copy pasting to speed up the process. submitted by /u/Technical-Fly-6835 [link] [comments]

I tried making another library without any success. Now I have three libraries and a photos app that doesn’t work.

Mac G5
by Guest /u/Double_Breath_1725- 0 replies
- 10 views
So I came across this old Mac g5. It's password protected and I don't know the password. I also don't have a Mac keyboard. All the videos I watched said to shut it down and then press windows button plus r or s. I've done this 15 times now and it won't take me to the recovery menu. Is it because the Mac hasn't recognized my keyboard? I can't do anything on the computer except type the password or shut it down. Does anyone have any other ways to get around the password? You'd be saving me a lot of unwanted anger. Thanks. submitted by /u/Double_Breath_1725 [link] [comments]

Hi all So I have an M1 iMac and my son was eating an apple the other night while watching some YouTube videos and now there are spots on the screen from the juice of the apple while he was eating it and it’s not coming off with the non abrasive cloth I use to clean it.

15.2 update HDMI no longer supports DRM video
by Guest /u/Sensitive_Invite8171- 0 replies
- 9 views
I've been using a USB-C to HDMI cable for a while now to stream DRM-protected video (Netflix, HBO) to an external monitor, but since the update I can no longer play DRM videos at all (neither on the built-in screen nor the external monitor) with the cable connected on my M2 Air. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas for a solution? If it hadn't worked before I'd assume the cable isn't HDCP compatible, but it consistently worked fine before the update. Thank you! submitted by /u/Sensitive_Invite8171 [link] [comments]

Issue with Mac mini M4 Not Restoring Spaces After Restart
by Guest /u/LemonSqeeeezer- 0 replies
- 10 views
I'm experiencing a strange issue with my new Mac mini M4 and Spaces. I've configured the Mac to reopen all windows after a restart, which it does as expected. However, I have various applications, docs, and browser windows spread across 8 Spaces. When I restart the Mac, it reopens all the windows, but it doesn't remember which Spaces they were in. As a result, all the windows are opened in the first Space, and sometimes in the first and second Spaces, while the rest of the Spaces remain empty. I've tried this multiple times, and it consistently places all the windows in the first Space. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this issue, or is there a setting I'm …

Bluetooth mouse needs to be paired again every restart
by Guest /u/GreenT1979- 0 replies
- 11 views
My system recently updated to Sequoia 15.1.1. Since then, every time I restart, my Bluetooth mouse needs to be paired again. It's an offbrand Bluetooth mouse that has worked perfectly up to this point. Now, when the mouse disconnects, it does not reconnect by itself. The mouse's name will be in the connected Bluetooth devices list, but the blue searching light on my mouse is blinking. Its name also appears in the nearby devices, the exact same name as what's in the already paired devices. If I pair with the nearby one, it just duplicates in the already paired devices list. When I hover the cursor over them, some have a connect option, others don't. When I click connect on…

Advice for getting rid of Mac

Hi all, sorry if this is not allowed. I want to find out where is a good site and maybe a good price to sell my MacBook at. I was gifted a 2024 MacBook Pro M4, 1TB with 16GB ram, but I already have a 2021 MacBook which works just fine for me and I don’t need the new one. Is eBay fine to sell it on or is there a better site? Or would you recommend local sale due to scams? submitted by /u/Objective-Flower-182 [link] [comments]
