This may not be possible, but I'm checking to see if anyone knows of a way to utilize the mac function keys as they are setup by default (so they would adjust brightness, volume, etc.) but to treat them as standard function keys for specified apps (primarily excel). I know I can override the...

Does it work and does the hardware such as Wi-Fi, audio, Bluetooth, camera work?

This is a poll. If forced, would you pick Apple to abandon computers or mobile devices, under a hypothetical situation? A recent thread questioning what seems like more hype over the upcoming MacBook event than the recent iPhone event made me curious about something. I have my own reasons why...

I have a MacBook Air 13" early 2014 running 10.14.6 and iTunes 12.9.5.5 and bought a new iPhone SE and it does not connect with the Mac and Apple keeps suggesting I update to a newer version of their OSX and cannot help at all. Their web site advertises that it works with my Mac, OSX, iTunes...

Is it possible to transfer text that has been copied from iOS, to be pasted in OSX 10.13.6 ?

Hello, My 2008 mac suddenly stopped working. When I load it up its asked for a disk password which is fine, then goes to install OS X and says its can be installed. How can I get past this? It just keeps going round in circles once I restart it again. Thanks

Hows it going everybody. My Imac mid 2011 (27 inch) has been experiencing random fan noises/lines shooting directly down the center. Today when I try power on, it goes to the routine the apple loading screen then goes to a white screen - and thats it. I tried a PRAM / SMC reset. It will not...

Got a bit nostalgic for some Oni Goodness after spending some time on this Forum. Could not get it to run on my Trash Can running 10.14.6 but thought I might have it on a mid 2014 MBP running High Sierra and Lo and Behold it fired right up!! Vs 1.2 via the Omni Group Mac OS Intel Port.

Hey! I searched a lot on the web for OS X Mavericks installer file, but i didn't find any, but the updates. It was removed from the App Store, so that's not an option, it is why i'm here. Can someone give me a link for the full Mavericks installer? I want to create a bootable disk. An Apple ID...

When using the open/save function (opening a window) I resize it to reflect my needs. A sidebar with sufficient width to read my folder names and a larger window at all to be able to navigate through folders. In previous versions of all OSX-versions if I recall it correctly, including Big Sur...

Listen i have been an iPhone user since they first hit the market but never made the switch to Laptops or Desktops. I recently bought a MacBook Pro(13 inch,Mid 2010) from my daughter in law just to get my feet wet. I added the max memory 8GB and its a 2.4 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo. I cleared the...

I'm helping a friend of mine revise his IT resume. My friend's computer experience is mostly with Macs. I'm not a Mac user so I'm wondering what are the best Mac skills to list on an IT resume?

I usually run my 2017 MacBook Pro connected to an external monitor. Since installing the supplemental update to Catalina (10.15.7, released Nov. 5, 2020), display mirroring no longer functions properly. It hops back and forth incessantly, alternately blanking the external monitor but leaving the...

Hi there, I am trying to restore two partitions on multiple new mac minis. have an image of catalina with a bunch of apps installed and also a win 10 WIM file used to restore onto the Bootcamp partition. Now after attempting to do the restore to the partition on the mac side using CCC it...

Hi, I have a macbook running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5. My git (2.5.4, Apple git-61) suddenly stopped working, with the error message "SSL peer handshake failed, the server most likely requires a client certificate to connect". I tried updating git, reconnecting to the server and signing out and...

Hi there, i have a Mid 2010 MacBook Pro and since I've installed the latest OS X Catalina on it I can't activate any extension on safari. I can't seem to resolve this question, I already started in safe mode and still no luck. With OS X 10.15.6 I get the following message : Safari has detected...

I always was fascinated by every device Apple produced. Especially the devices produced in the mid 2000’s I do like. The design of the aluminium PowerBook G4 inspired every following MacBook (Pro) and was really state-of-the-art. Okay, they have some issues: the G4 PPC CPUs are well-known for...

Happy 2023! Welcome to the community WikiPost. We will be discussing OS X Leopard on G3’s (and G4’s). As of early 2023, the guide is “active”. The content has been updated, however, we are still looking for someone to finish the shell script to automate the install. [/SPOILER] If you want...

Trying to get Yosemite on my Early 2008 White A1181 MacBook! Edit: RMC Mac OS X Patcher worked!

I noticed that the Apple Mail app on my MacPro 6,1 started to have problems in getting new mail automatically a few months ago. If I manually fetch the mail, it still won't work. But if I quit the Mail app and start it again, it would work fine for some time. Then the same problem occurs later...
