Is it risky to use an unsupported macOS like Catalina?
by Guest /u/YamCrafty- 0 replies
- 4 views
Hi you all, I’m currently using macOS Catalina, which is no longer supported by Apple. I’d like to better understand the real risks and disadvantages of sticking with an unsupported OS. Regarding security, if I install an antivirus, will that be enough? Or is there more to worry about? Another concern is browsers. The only one still receiving updates on Catalina (among the most famous) is Firefox, which I don't really love but it is fine. Is it really risky to keep using the unsupported one (Chrome, i.e.), or is it fine for casual browsing if I stick to known and safe websites? I’d appreciate hearing your thoughts or experiences on this, thanks submitted…

How long do you guys think Apple will support the M1 Lineup of Macbooks?
by Guest /u/maysonguy- 0 replies

I'm worried about the lifespan of my M1 MBA and how long I can use it without having to upgrade or use things like OCLP. I'm hoping because of the new arm based cpu's, Apple will support their early M series for longer than their intel based macs. What do you guys think? submitted by /u/maysonguy [link] [comments]

I seem to have encountered an account-breaking iCloud bug, and having a hell of a time resolving it.

I am trying like hell to get my dad on the iPhone train, I got him an iPhone and an Apple Watch and things have been mostly going smooth. He's got an ancient Mac mini as well, running MacOS 10.15.7. Problem: Can't get iCloud Photos to sync properly on any device On his iPhone, he can't enable the iCloud Photo Library. For some reason, his iCloud account is broken. He's got the iCloud storage from my family plan, he's got a 13 Pro max with the latest software. But the button is completely disabled. We discovered this problem because my dad loves to frequently share large files, and one of the advantages of the apple platform is the seamless "create iCloud link" butto…

Could I use my old MacBook Air as a monitor+keyboard for the new Mac mini?
by Guest /u/IcommittedNiemann- 0 replies
- 6 views
So I’m thinking of getting the mac mini as my current device isn’t very powerful. I actually do have a monitor at home, but I like the 2 screens. I still want to be able to use my MacBook Air 2017 normally when it’s not paired with the Mac mini tho. There’s a high chance I will buy it in China and my region is Europe. Is this possible and what adapters would be required? (I have one that converts the thunderbolt to hdmi and one that converts USB to Ethernet, the other USB port is unstable) submitted by /u/IcommittedNiemann [link] [comments]

I wanted to downgrade macOS Sequoia to Ventura with a USB installation drive. But, after erasing internal storage, Ventura installer got stuck at ~30% and throw me an error that drive is corrupted. recoveryOS on internal storage suggests me to reinstall Sonoma (which is kinda weird), but I don’t want to install it. Is there any way to trick internal recoveryOS into installing Ventura, or I have to install Sonoma first, then repair my installation drive? P.S. changing date in installer didn’t work, even with Wi-Fi disabled.…

Mac Mini 2024 rendering quality
by Guest /u/Lotipe- 0 replies
- 8 views
Hi everyone, I’m planning to buy the new Mac Mini 2024 in its basic configuration (16GB RAM and 256GB storage). My goal is to start learning interior design, including 3D photorealistic rendering. I’m a complete beginner and have never done anything similar before. I’m okay with managing the limited storage using an external hard drive and cloud services, and the base model fits my budget. I’d love to hear from anyone with experience using the 2024 Mac Mini for rendering. How well does it handle 3D rendering tasks? Also, could you recommend rendering engines (e.g., Blender, Corona, etc.) that work efficiently on this machine? I’m looking for beginner-friendly …

Considering a switch to mac

I NEED to get away from Microsoft, I've tried Linux, and it does everything I need it to do,, but I don't think my wife would be able to handle the involvement with maintenance that Linux requires. So I'm wondering if Mac is the way to go. But I have some embarrassingly simple questions. Will I need to budget for new monitors? My current monitors are remarkably good, I'd hate o have to replace them. The you tube videos I've seen seem to imply that special monitors, keyboards and mice are required, jeeze even new cables seem required. I understand the closed garden design concept, and I don't really have a problem with that. But is there a way to sort of financially …

How do the Air and Pro MacBooks compare with the same chip?
by Guest /u/bambibol- 0 replies
- 9 views
I've been doing my research lately and there's something that I've been wanting to verify: If you would compare a MacBook AIR vs a MacBok PRO, that have the same specs, what are the actual computing differences? Say you would compare a MacBook Air M3 vs a MacBook Pro M3: both with 512GB of storage and 24GB of RAM. Are there differences apart from the hardware (so apart from the screen, the ports, the size, the fans, the weight, and all that hardware stuff)? Is the Pro model still better cause it's a Pro model, or does it actually not matter until you go up to a M3 Pro or M3 Max? submitted by /u/bambibol [link] [comments]

I have a broken display and i removed it. But for some what odd reason the MacBook still thinks its display is connected because of that every time i connect to a display my monitor is in external display mode. This is a huge deal for me when im in recovery mode and other things please let me know if you know the solution to this submitted by /u/Equal_Somewhere_6234 [link] [comments]

It doesn’t constantly lock the laptop, shut it down, etc however it does make it very unpredictable to use when you are trying to do something with it. Are there any easy fixes? Apple support has already been contacted and they suggested a shop visit, however I am away for a while still. (ps: excuse the dirty keyboard ) submitted by /u/SwimmingInspector186 [link] [comments]

Mac Upgrade for mainly Windows User
by Guest /u/Electronic_Switch777- 0 replies
- 9 views
Hey there! I'm a current high school senior that may be looking to upgrade my Mac. I mainly use a Framework Windows laptop for school, but have a 2012 iMac that I got from the electronics dump that I've been using to supplement it. However, being from 2012, the performance leaves something to be desired. This would be fine, but since I started a video production club this year that uses Final Cut Pro for our editing, I'd like to have a little bit more of a high powered solution to edit on than the iMac. Ideally not a MacBook, as right to repair is one of my big sticking points when buying tech, along with the fact that I'm doing engineering in college. I was thinking abou…

What to do if you have 2 MacBooks
by Guest /u/snapthebass- 0 replies
- 9 views
Hi everyone. I'm looking to connect 2 MacBooks to a monitor. Mac1: M3 Mac2: M4 I'm torn on what to choose because I want to be able to both see what's happening in both screens, as well as switch the mouse/keyboard control as fast as possible. So options are: 1. Apple Studio Display with a KVM switch and i put the MacBooks on the side to see what's happening. I believe you can't hook up 2 MacBooks to Apple Studio Display. In this case i'd need a KVM recommendation. Keyboard+Mouse I'll probably buy Logitech MX. A widescreen monitor (max 43") with PiP so I can see both screens. In this case I think I would only need Logitech's MX keyboard to switch between one …
