| Posted: 08 Mar 2018 02:08 AM PST It all started when I upgraded to High Sierra. My MacBook (early 2015) would restart and crash with "your computer restated because of a problem" -- great. And when rebooting back up I am greeted with the kernel panic report. Now this happened once in a while and did not really affect me at first. It would sometimes shutdown with the lid close. Sometimes I leave it closed in my laptop sleeve and come back to it hot-- fans on. Being in the sleeve, it just gets hotter and hotter. Recently, these crashes have been occurring more often and each report indicates a different process. Finder completely broke on my account. Couldn't open finder window or any folder. Creating another account and enabling file sharing allows me to access my files with finder. I found out later that booting into safe mode did not work. And that disk utility first aid failed (see link for exact error). So, I did a clean install of High Sierra. Formatted my disk and installed os and migrated my time machine backup. First aid runs fine. Everything seems fine. Finder works. Except I'm back to the point I was before. My laptop is still crashing every once in a while. I'm afraid High Sierra is trashing the file system as time goes by and might go full circle on me again. (Assuming file system due to the finder issue and object map error) https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8179444 Is anyone else getting wrecked by high Sierra like me? I ran the hardware tests and diagnostics and have no issues. It seems that it's an os issue. [link] [comments]  | ||
| IrDA options for contemporary macbooks? Posted: 08 Mar 2018 01:43 AM PST I'm wondering if anyone has tried to - or successfully achieved - IrDA connections on a macOS High Sierra Macbook Pro. I'm interesting in using a number of legacy devices (IR keyboard interfaces such as the Alphasmart, Psion 5MX, Apple Newton) to send data to my Mac, but not sure what receiving devices on the Mac side would be needed - there's many budget-priced IrDA interfaces, but obviously getting one with drivers and system support/integration is key. Has anyone had any experiences with this? [link] [comments]  | ||
| High Sierra, Illustrator and InDesign flashing/glitching when zooming Posted: 07 Mar 2018 11:47 PM PST When High Sierra was first released, I installed it, and all of these bugs shown here, occurred: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6cyKlzIhVs I instantly went back to Sierra, couldn't work with those issues. I thought all of this had been ironed out by now, and a lot of people told me that Illustrator and other Adobe software worked fine on High Sierra. Yesterday I finally updated again, but sadly, all the bugs and glitches in Adobe software is still here. Does anyone have the same issues, or does anyone know if it's fixable and if it's Adobe's or Apple's fault? I'm running on a 2016 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar. I can note that turning GPU Preview off, fixes the issue, but then Illustrator becomes a pain to use [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 07 Mar 2018 10:00 AM PST Does anyone know of a way to change the theme of Finder and other system applications to a dark UI theme? I've done some googling but none of the solutions I've found seem to work, specially the one at this address. I'm looking for something looking like this: https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2000/1*IBHKsnIsXU6UDDke_Kv_Tw.jpeg [link] [comments]  | ||
| Is there a way to semi-universally have apps go full screen a la pre mission control? Posted: 07 Mar 2018 12:36 PM PST I actually like the mission control full screen in certain use cases. Like when I have a Remote Desktop / VNC / etc session/s. Mission control full screen works fine for this. However there are other apps where I'd really just prefer for full screen to just remove the window dressings and make the app the size of the screen instead. Mission control also seems to add a lot of overhead somehow, or at least things feel slower when I have multiple full screen apps open that use mission control. Is there a setting or perhaps an app that can switch to the old way of doing full screen? I'd be happy with doing it universally but would prefer to be able to set it on an app by app basis. Or is this something that each app has to implement internally, and I'm stuck? Thanks for any assistance :) [link] [comments]  | ||
| The latest macOS freezes - MBP 2017 13" (mandatory restart) Posted: 07 Mar 2018 12:28 PM PST Does anyone know any way to investigate why am I getting these "death freezes"? Windows has it's app for such problems but when my Mac has to be shut down I don't have any way to know what caused such problem - it was an app? process? I can't figure it out [link] [comments]  | ||
| SSD in 2014 MBP Installation Cost Posted: 07 Mar 2018 09:15 AM PST Is $215 too much to pay for a business to install an SSD in a MBP? Not asking them to clone my data for me and I provided the SSD. They offered to install an OS for me (sierra - they said high sierra is buggy and to avoid it right now) so they might be including installation of the OS in that quote. But regardless, it seems a little high for labor. Any thoughts? Thanks. [link] [comments]  | ||
| make a clone of my whole system (and bootcamp) before sending in for repair? Posted: 07 Mar 2018 08:47 AM PST I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015), that has a swelling battery, I'm getting ready to ship it back for repair, but wanted to take an image so I don't have to start over when it comes back (or is replaced). Is there a simple way to do this or does it get dicey? I'm pretty capable, but I've never done this before. I have access to external drives and such if I need them.. Thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Dark mode and Alfred dark theme at sunset script [shell] [launchd] Posted: 07 Mar 2018 04:20 AM PST Hello! I'd like to share a my shell script to enable dark mode and the Alfred dark theme at sunset. The script pulls sunrise and sunset data from the Yahoo weather API and sets up two user launch agents for sunrise and sunset, which then run the script thereafter. If your mac was asleep/off during the sunrise/sunset times, launchd will run the launch agent when you're next logged in! The script requires 'dark-mode' from Homebrew. In Yosemite there was a defaults command to set a keyboard shortcut to turn on dark mode, however this seems to no longer work in later OS.
Instructions:
If you run the script after sunset, dark mode will turn on. If run the script during daylight, nothing will appear to happen, but don't fret the launch agent will soon automate dark mode at sunset!
Homebrew setup:
For more info visit brew.sh
Now, I realise Flux has this functionality, however I had issues with Flux crashing WindowServer and I switched to Night Shift and still wanted automated dark mode. Plus this script also sets the Alfred dark theme. When originally searching for a script to do this, I found a python script on Github which sets the Alfred dark theme at sunset, however the script was way over my head and I couldn't work out how to also set dark mode, so I made my own script c:
Notes:
This is my first proper programmatic shell script. Let me know here or on GitHub if you have any issues or find any bugs! A log file in Darkmode folder logs dark-mode and any script errors. You can view the code here https://github.com/katernet/darkmode/blob/master/Darkmode.sh [link] [comments]  | ||
| Added font not appearing in preview Posted: 07 Mar 2018 12:48 PM PST I've added a font to my font book, however when opening up preview and then editing a photo, I cannot see my added fonts. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Why do minimized safari windows disappear after rebooting ? Posted: 07 Mar 2018 04:54 AM PST I haven't had this issue so far, I noticed this in the last few days. I had fairly important stuff lost because of this, any ideas? I'm on High Sierra. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Mac OS Sierra question: Is there a way to have the dock on multiple monitors? Posted: 07 Mar 2018 08:25 AM PST I have 3 Apple displays and it's sometimes a pain to have to turn and look at the dock to open an app or check for app notification badges. I have a bad pinched nerve in my neck so I'm trying to make my work easier. [link] [comments]  | ||
