That's OK for external peripherals. In a cMP one of the USB 1.1 peripheral is Bluetooth controller (either the factory fitted one...

Hi everyone, First post on here. I hope someone else has done what I describe below and can advise re. my questions.... I have a late 2012 iMac (27 inch) which is currently running on the latest version of Catalina (10.15.7). It's no longer getting updates and Office 365 updates can no longer...

Good day, all. I have a weird one for you, and I have tried to troubleshoot the best I can...but I am at a dead end. I inherited a (free!) 2015 iMac 21.5 (non-4K) with a dying/dead HDD. I ran First Aid on the disk, and it failed. No problem...obviously knew about the dead HDD, so I rebooted...

Hello guys, I upgraded my late 2015 27" iMac to Monterey from Mojave. It's now taking some 5 minutes to startup from an external SSD. Mojave took less than a minute. What is going on here? Any ideas? Thanks

So, I rebooted my Late 2015 21.5-in iMac to install Rogue Amoeba's Piezo software. It was in an endless boot loop when it tried to start up again. I eventually unplugged it and plugged it back in. Then I pressed Power and it booted just fine (after 10 minutes that seemed like days.) I logged in...

Bear with me while I set this up... I am working on a new Mac Studio M1, purchased in December 2022. Since I have been on this machine, I have had tons of different issues with a lot of different applications in the Ventura OS, but have squared away most issues by backtracking to Monterey...

Hello, noob here. I bought a Mac Pro 5.1 and tried to install monterey with the original card and opencore. Everything went fine. Than i replace the card with a Sapphire rx570 nitro 8gb and Monterey became very slow. Is there something i can do to solve this? I tried to mess with the "non metal"...

Hey all, I've had a strange issue lately. I'm unable to have the box for automatically download apps purchased on other devices stay checked after quitting the app store. This also happens with the toggle switch on the iPhone running 16.3. All devices are signed into the same Apple ID so not...

Hey all, I tried to pick the best category for this thread, so I hope this is the right place. Here is the situation: I recently moved into a new apartment and once I got everything reconnected, I ran Epson software updater, and got the message "There is no information about your Epson...

I have a Mac Studio with Monterey that is taking the place of a 2018 Mac Mini on Mojave. The Mini had my music library in iTunes and with Monterey, it seems as if I should use the music app. I seem to remember the transition from Mojave to Catalina way back when doing weird things to people's...

I have just purchased a trashcan Mac Pro 6,1 (12 core, D700), this already had Monterey 12.0 installed on the default Apple 256gb SSD. As this was already at Monterey, I assumed that the required firmware was OK so installed the OWC Aura Pro X2 SSD and attempted a clean install. Got the "A...

When opening photos from iMessage on macOS, it shows a preview, then I have to click "Open With Preview" in the window that shows. Is there a way to merely have it when I open the photo from iMessage it just opens in 'full', i.e. in Preview? So many clicks. Clearly am doing something wrong...

Downloaded monterey...

It shouldn’t be this hard. In fact, it should be “super easy; barely an inconvenience!” as the Quebecois says on YouTube. The module or whatever you want to call it, in macOS, detects the connected displays. In some cases, two or more of the displays are the same brand, model and year, because...

Hello, Recently I messed up when I installed the DriveDX software on my Mac. It is a 2015 iMac booting running Monterey w/ OCLP from an external USB SSD.

Hello! I have an old Mac Mini 2011 that I upgraded to Monterey thanks to Opencore Legacy Patcher. It works perfectly with HDMI on a 1080p monitor, but on a 4K monitor it shows a black screen :-( The signal seems to be received by the 4K monitor, since it doesn’t show ”No signal”. Does anyone...
