You can do that. With Skype or Google Voice you can turn your standard wi-fi iPad into a VOIP phone, and you’ll be able to make and receive phone calls and text messages directly from the iPad or iPod. These apps are free to download and even free to make calls between other users of the services, but if you want to make outside phone calls or send text messages to real p…

This is especially true for product demonstrations and high resolution screens shown by projectors, where a tiny cursor can easily get lost.</p> <p>Whether you are using <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2010/11/16/screen-recorder-ma…

Problem with Radeon Pulse RX 580 *gb G5 After successfully installing Monterey with OCLP, my second 30" ACD is flickering. With Catalina, there was no flickering or any other visible issue with these 2 identical displays. I've checked every option in the display menu without being able to resolve it. I dropped the resolution which made it "less" bad. I've Installed OCLP directly to my boot disk and looked for alt drivers for this Radeon Pulse RX 580 8gb with no results (of...

35W Dual USB Charger with various cables
by Guest /u/thebemusedmuse- 0 replies
- 5 views
I have a 35W Dual USB charger that I sometimes use to charge a Mac. I have a M1 Pro and M2 Air. In both cases, when I use the new 1m 60W braided USB-C wire, I get the full 35W. But when I use an older 2m 94W rated USB-C wire, I get 27W. I'm not sure what Mac that cable came from, probably a 2016 MacBook Pro. Anyone know why that it is? submitted by /u/thebemusedmuse [link] [comments]

35w or 70w charger for Macbook Air?
by Guest /u/Fantastic_Draft_2085- 0 replies
- 14 views
Hi. I was thinking to buy a macbook air. I plan to use the macbook at home and take it to work but need some portability i.e. for airports, planes, conferences. I see there are 35w and 70w options for charger. What should one choose? Will the battery degrade faster with the 70w one? Can I leave my laptop plugged for many hours (i.e. 10h) with either of them? I know that air slows down performance in case of high temperature. Wouldn't the 70w charger lead to higher temperatures overall and lower performance? submitted by /u/Fantastic_Draft_2085 [link] [comments]

3rd party RAM vendors for Mac Pro 7,1
by Guest theatwar- 0 replies

Hello all, In the past I've always purchased my RAM upgrade from OWC (always very easy to locate and order the correct type of RAM on their page, depending on which Mac I had at the time, and it's covered by a lifetime warrenty plus trade-in offer for the RAM that ships with the original Apple computer). Reading through the forum, I've read some different opinions that seem to suggest OWC is still a bit overpriced (though of course much cheaper than Apple), and that I should search for...
