    M1 Changes after November 2020 launch date...

I bought a Mac Mini M1 / 16g / 500g SSD HD in November. First Batch. I was replacing a Mac Mini 2014 Intel i7 / 16g / 500g SSD for my surprise the...

    CPU type is not support, can only run on Intel CPU

    Hi everyone, is there any solution for this problem? I want to install some plugin/app on my M1 Mac but its working only on Intel CPU Macs. I already have Rosetta but its not working. Probably because its not application but a .pkg installation file. Is there any chance to run this on M1 Mac?

    Lightroom Classic is BROKEN under M1 Macs with Rosetta. BEWARE!

    Hi. I'v just installed LR Classic on my M1 Macbook pro with 8G/256GB, and LR is completely broken. It works, blazing fast, but as fast it's destroying my SSD. It wrote arround 100GB of data in 15 minutes. I have uploaded this video showing the nonsense. When culling a folder with around 1800...

    Can somebody with an M1 kindly test if an app opens through rosetta 2?

    Hello everyone. In my workflow I use plenty of high profile applications, which I'm sure can be used with the current M1 processors (either in native or rosetta 2 translation mode), but there are also a few smaller applications I rely on, that I'm not sure would open on an M1 chip...

    Keeping track of Rosetta 2 Apps

    I have an M1 MBA and I’m absolutely loving it. I would love to only use native/universal apps, but in order to use it for work I can’t get around installing some applications under Rosetta 2. My question is: Is there any easy way to keep track of which applications on the system are native...

    Data science (R and SPSS 26 etc.) under Rosetta 2 / Apple silicon M1?

    I know there are tons of posts with benchmarks and tests whether a given software works, but I would like to dedicate this thread to data science apps e.g. R, RStudio, SPSS, Python (I know it will work natively), QGIS and additional software that researchers use to create illustrations as e.g...
