Hi all, I have a 2011 iMac (i5, 20gb ram, 1tb ssd) which is still powerful enough for me, but is now obsolete in the eyes of Apple. I need to use Logic Pro X for work but it’s not compatible with my iMac (running High Sierra). Alas, I’m looking to buy a new computer (ouch), but this got me...

I just updated my Mac to Catalina and my iPhone to iOS 13.5, but now every time I plug my iPhone into my Mac I get a popup notification telling me to update it again to 13.5.1 which I don't want to do because I'm jailbroken. I noticed there was a Terminal command 'sudo softwareupdate --ignore...

Issue Description: While I was trying to screen record a long video(1-2 hours) an issue emerged: After hitting QuickTime stop button on my menu bar, the screen record couldn't be saved. Meaning, no screen record is prompted so I can save it. The thing is when I screen record a short video(0-10...

Thought I’d ask this question that I’ve been thinking about for a while. Which is your favorite Apple event each year? The September iPhone event or WWDC keynote? I personally enjoy WWDC more because it brings new features for all product lines, and it’s always exciting to see new things at...

I need the community's assistance. I tried to redeem the attached Apple coupons but customer service would not accept them. I have a whole bunch more and hoped to redeem them towards the purchase of the new Mac Pro. If you could direct me to the appropriate department or Apple Store (in or...

Hi, I'm trying to get off this beta and back to the normal ios 13. I've deleted the beta profile, however, can't figure out how to update to the normal ios 13.

Back story: I recently purchased a 2010 MBP for a couple of beers worth of $$ and replaced the charging port for a few more beers worth. To my surprise, the battery looks to be in relatively good health. I have no idea how long it has been stored empty, but hopefully I'll be able to see the...

Hey people, In a bit of a situation that I thought would be easy but turns out isn't. Over the weekend I lost my iPhone 6s, don't think I'll be getting it back so I have an older iPhone 5s I'm using for now. I wanted to restore the 5s with the backup from the 6s (which was backed up last year)...

Hello MacRumors Community. Just uninstalled a music app called Reason 10. The file to start the app was inside the app's folder in which other stuff like Factory sounds were. I dragged the entire app folder to the trash and clicked on Empty Trash. Then I searched my computer and found...

As I investigate some alternatives from the Mac in Windows, which, to be honest is a crazy enough idea... I was picturing how Linux could be made to work for me. I'm in Marketing so here's the use case: - Advanced editing and finishing off layouts of Office Documents - Playing nicely with...

Hello all Not too long ago, I tried to update my MacBook Pro to the newest OS (Mojave). I downloaded the updater etc. and started updating my software. I didn't mind, so I just let it update for itself. I came back some hours after, to a black screen, and nothing responding. The computer didn't...

Not sure if this is the right place for this topic but I recently got my mac mini 2018, i7 and also bought an eGPU (Razer Core X with a Radeon Rx 580). Very happy so far, no issues at all. Running super stable since more than 3 weeks now...so far so good. :) Now, while MacOS seems to be more...

I am soon starting a tech youtube channel. Any recommendations for a camera to start out with? My budget is 600 dollars max. Also, what are some good alternatives to Final Cut Pro?

My twin also has a muscle disease like me. I saw him using our big family iMac the other day. He can type fine, albeit slow, but the thing that slows him down is moving his hand over to the mouse and then back to the keyboard again. It was painful to watch. Are there products out there that can...
