Hey everyone, I’m about to drop $625 on a Gigabyte M32U to pair with my 2021 MacBook Pro M1 as the primary display. Yes, it’s 2025, minus the 2 days as of now :), and yes, I’m that person who’s late to the party. But hey, 4K, 32 inches, 144 Hz, KVM… it still sounds sweet, right? Here’s the deal: I spend my days writing code (think endless lines of Python, JavaScript, PHP) and my nights dabbling in video editing (read: editing cat reaction videos and occasional short films—don’t judge!). I’m looking for something that gives me crystal-clear text during coding marathons, plus decent color accuracy so I don’t butcher skin tones in Final Cut Pro. I know the M32U got a l…

I'm saying goodbye to my 2017 MacBook Air, and buying a 2024 MacBook Air M3. I'm upgrading because it's gotten slow, and the battery dies at 50% if unplugged. My 2017 has 121GB of flash storage. At the moment, 21.57GB of that is "macOS", and 26.79GB of that is "System Data". The rest are from docs, photos, and available storage. Question: How do I make sure that I don't transfer unnecessary (or harmful) files to the new MacBook Air? Is Migration Assistant enough? I think I have 200GB of iCloud storage. Do I have to do a "cleanup" before doing the transfer? I'm not a very techie person, so if anyone can give me a step-by-step, I'd be super grateful. Thanks i…

I am in the market for a M1, pink or blue base modelish iMac. I’m just being honest I really want a vesa model. I want to mount it in my walk in closet, so I can use it for reading. Yes I know it’s an eccentric, but I’m well weird. How often does those go on the used market, I just want to know because I know it’s a niche audience who even buys them in the first place. submitted by /u/Decent-Principle8918 [link] [comments]

As title say: when I turn on my HomePod (v2) it start playing music. I need to stop it via iPhone or via Siri. There is a way to turn in on without this happening? Note: I don't have any automation in Home app. submitted by /u/mrcmrc12 [link] [comments]

I got a good deal for one of these in my country, it seems like a nice and cheap 4k monitor but I keep reading a lot about people having problems with macos resolution.

Hi everyone, I’m a college student currently looking for a new laptop. My primary use case is programming and occasionally running university-specific software. I know Macs are generally more expensive, but I also understand that they offer excellent build quality, and the newer M-series chips are very powerful. That said, I don’t use an iPhone or any other Apple products. I know Apple’s hallmark is its cross-system integration—features like AirDrop, Handoff, and iCloud that tie their ecosystem together. Since I wouldn’t be able to use those features, I’m wondering: What are the key advantages of using a MacBook over a much cheaper Windows machine for programmin…

I want to buy a new macbook for my own freelance company. I am a marketeer who does a lot of design work. Mostly to use the adobe suite and maybe put some time into blender. Next to that I will use it for dj software. Now I got a as good as new refurbished Macbook M1 MAX 64Gb Ram and 2tb SSD for €2495. My other option would be the Macbook M4 Pro with 24 gb Ram and 512 gb. I am new to MacOs so would like some advice :) Thanks in advance. submitted by /u/KnownMaddMaxNMGN [link] [comments]

I have a Mac pro trashcan with D300's. My question is can I upgrade the GPU's if I was able to get my hands on some D700's? Next question, can I have one D700 and one D300 or do they both need to be the same. Also, if you can upgrade them, where can i get my hands on some D700's for a reasonable price if any? One other question about the Mac Pro GPU's : can doing lots of intense tasks like video editing and rendering for long amounts of time damage the GPU's or cause them to die faster?? Thank you submitted by /u/Zolks1 [link] [comments]

I'm torn between the following: AOC CU34G2X LG 38UC99 Acer Predator X34 Alienware AW3423DW I'm leaning more toward the Alienware AW3423DW, as I've seen many videos and reviews of it in action with the MacOS system. Of course, it requires the BetterDisplay App to improve quality of the text, but generally it looks a stunning monitor. I've read into the others, and they also have their pros. I would like to hear from others who own or have used these monitors in the past, and can shed a little light on them regarding user experience? Many thanks. submitted by /u/D8nnyJ [link] [comments]

I could've sworn that I've used Screen Recording (Command + Shift + 5) before with internal audio being recorded... There's only options to choose Microphones (inputs) not External sources. I'm on the latest version of MacOS submitted by /u/arb232 [link] [comments]

Hello, I have a mac mini M1 connected to one monitor using USB-C and the main one connected with USB-C to Displayport. It seems i have to disable one, to use one monitor unless i break it by using an HDMI and one USB-C. I'm not an expert with these kind of stuff but anyone care to explain why it doesn't support two external displays when it should be possible as stated by Apple? Is it because i use two times the same cables for input? How do i use two monitors without having to shutdown the other. Thanks. submitted by /u/tHeR3alZ0lan [link] [comments]

General advice for those concerned about their battery from the Support FAQ Wiki: Battery health Battery health depends on usage and a variety of other factors. It is normal to see a decrease in battery health by 7-10% per year, resulting in a battery health of 80-85% after 2 years. This number can fluctuate, remain the same, or decrease quickly over a small period and should not cause undue concern. Apple recommend battery replacement when your device falls below 80% battery health if you notice reduced battery life. If it falls below 80% within the first year you may be eligable for a free battery replacement. It fails after your warranty, it's a $69-$89 USD re…

Why can some Apple default apps be able to be deleted, and others not? Why is the iTunes app able to be deleted, if it’s essential? Same thing as Mail. If I delete the Apple Music app or the Apple Mail app, the device gets problems because then I can’t choose the default Mail app or maybe cannot tell Siri to use Spotify as the default music app. I would love to be able to delete all of the default apps, but then I get problems. I don’t know what problems I would get if I ever delete the Reminders app. There are so many third party apps that are better than the default Apple apps, there’s just no question about it. I can’t think of any right now, but they are out the…

I am preparing for my first marathon and I am looking for the best way to follow a training plan, using my iPhone and Apple Watch. My goal is to find a solution that works 'as natively as possible', meaning ideally only using first-party Apple apps or the least amount of third-party apps. I have checked the Apple Fitness app, but there do not seem to be any training plans available there. Do you have any suggestions or solutions you can recommend which would meet my requirements? submitted by /u/lumla [link] [comments]
