On my MBP, if I’m streaming something to the chromecast for any appreciable length of time the display sleeps. That’s not a bad thing, it’s supposed to do that, but the trouble is, if I want to pause playback, it’s not a matter of simply hitting the pause key to immediately pause. This is because pressing any key wakes...
Just a heads up, I’m not an apple user, it never clicked with me but this might be the best spot to get an answer for my specific use case. What I do like was their old 3.5 mm jack earphones, but the playback controls never worked right on my android phone, probably because of the wiring layout or some DRM screwery. I’ve...
Since my favorite player (Swinsian) tends to cause stuttering issues with my MBP everytime my system load exceeds 55%, I’m looking for alternatives to play my lossless files....
Generally curious what everyone thinks, just to start a discussion. I personally like the move to USB-C, but wish that 3.0 was available on the entire line. Colors of both the 15 and 15 Pro are a big miss for me though
Recently bought a pair of HomePod minis and added them to my setup. Previously, my Apple TV was the hub. After I added the HomePods, everything worked fine for about a day and now nothing is responding. I tried removing everything, including the HomePods, and readding them to My Home, and that didn’t work. Everything is up to...
I was sent an email to someone as part of an ongoing thread of emails in a conversation....
After years of using MacOS I somehow only just now became aware you even could copy the filepath at all (outside of dragging in to terminal which is just stupid) so I’m very happy to discover that, but the thing is, for the most part the reason I want to do this is for easy navigation of a file browser by copying paths from...
I feel like an old grandpa trying to use a computer, but I legit can’t find this anywhere and I used to use it often....
Hi, I’m wondering what the best way would be to make a backup of my iCloud Photo Library, consisting of about 60.000 pictures. If I try to export them from my computer, it tries to download them all and I don’t have enough disk space by far.
Someone gimmie a good free clock widget that can have a clear background. Please.
Hi all. I was wondering how iOS handles Contacts images, when it comes to encryption. It would be simpler without ADP (Advanced Data Protection), but I have it enabled....
Looking for a free app that allows me to record my calls, incoming and outgoing, without having to dial out and merge calls. Is that possible on the iPhone? I used to have one in Android that did this, but all the ones I see in the AppStore are the conference call or merge call type. I don’t care too much about quality as long...
This might be the wrong place to ask this question but, as someone who has owned more Apple products that I could count, I’m interested in reducing my dependency on them (and tech, in general) moving forward....
I’m hoping that this project is just not generally representative of performance across the board with After Effects and that there’s a lot of specifics making it so slow....
Just got a new mac and while I had disabled this on my old one, everything’s moved around and I can’t figure out how to get rid of this....
Go to Settings ➜ Accessibility ➜ Siri...
I have run Parallels for several years (mostly to do yearly business taxes), and I have resisted installing the Parallels Toolbox because I am wary of such things....
I’ve recently switched over to a MacBook Pro after using Windows or Linux laptops my entire life. I love that when I close the lid the laptop turns off and uses very little power. When I open it, everything is up and running again like nothing ever happend. Crazy concept I know, but coming from years of windows machines, this...
I am looking for a good tutorial that explains how I can turn my older Mac mini into a NAS. I need something that’s easy to understand -ELI5 kind of style please. Long time Apple user but that seems daunting. Any ideas where to find some info?!
I had been using wefwef as an Apollo refugee, but it just wasn’t very consistent. Likely due to the webapp experience....
Hi - Hoping someone’s come across this before and can offer some suggestions....
Anyone here in the beta and how is it running? With the release of beta 2 is there anything new with this or general fixes etc?...
The question is in subj. Recently switched to Apple infrastructure and witch my attention span got a problem. When I left my watch behind I would like my phone to remind me of that. Can I do it?
