    Restored manually from NAS Time Machine - now there are 'Icon?' files all over the computer

    Posted: 29 Jun 2018 08:07 PM PDT

    Recently restored all my files for my 2017 15" MacBook Pro failing for the 5th time in as many months (on it's third logic board now already - thanks Apple).

    Now I have a whole bunch of directories with files called Icon? - see image

    Please note that I don't have hidden files set to show currently. I'm assuming these are the files macOS uses to hold the folder icon - but they all seem to be renamed and visible?

    Any ideas of how to hide them all again. I stumbled across the command:

    find / -name Icon^M -exec chflags hidden {} \; 

    But I'm a bit hesitant to run it? :)

    Hi

    Im facing this weird facetime glitch. Whenever, I get a call in my phone, the mac will open the facetime app/camera but there is no accept call tab which usually shows up in the top right corner when u get a call. Is this happening to anyone else? Any fix?

    Mac extremely slow

    Posted: 29 Jun 2018 08:03 AM PDT

    For the past year my Mac mini 2012 have been really slow. I'm not talking about "I can actually see the boot loading bar" slow. I'm talking about 7 minutes to boot to login screen, and another 5 to get from login screen to seeing the apps list in launcher. Apps like safari take at lest 2 minutes to open as well, so it's not a startup items thing.

    I've tried resetting PRAM, deleting unused files, and switching to an SSD (which is probably faulty so I went back to the HDD) I suspected a malware but I can't find any signs to one, and in activity monitor I can't find anything suspicious in the top of the disk I/O list.

    Is there any possible explanation for this unreasonably slow i/o? The Mac used to boot in under 30 seconds before...

    Anyone notice better battery life on Mojave? I was ony 2016 13in MacBook pro with touch bar for probably an hour and a half doing Photoshop stuff and doing school work and it went from 100 to 95. Before it would drop to 80.

    Here is a guide to dark mode for your Mac computer. If you have any app or webpage or anything else please leave a comment, and I will add it, if I see it!

    1. Download Mac OS 10.14 (Mojave) Beta here
    2. Turn dark mode on - go to system preferences - general - press dark mode button

    Here is a list of 3rd party applications and webpages that I know supports dark mode

    1. Youtube (go to your account picture in the upper right corner and press dark mode)
    2. DuckDuckGo (press on the three lines in the upper right corner and press the black button in the top under settings)
    3. Reddit (Edit: Only if you have the new reddit redesign) (press on the little arrow in the upper right corner and press on night mode)
    4. Google Chrome (download this theme)
    5. Adobe applications (press cmd+k, then go to Interface, and press on the darkest option under Color theme)

    Excuse my bad English - im not a native speaker.
