    Font antialiasing on Mojave

    Posted: 25 Jul 2018 09:23 PM PDT

    Sorry if this has been asked before.

    I have a non-retina MacBook Air on which I previously installed the Dev Beta 1, and the fonts seemed barely legible - they felt extremely thin and grayish. Unfortunately I don't have a retina Mac so I couldn't test it out on other devices.

    If anyone has a non-retina Mac with Mojave installed, how are the fonts? I'm hoping this is not just an issue on my end only.

    Do you guys use any anti-virus or other anti-malware software on your Macs?

    Best resolution for making custom icons? Also, why won't safari let me change its icon?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 12:21 AM PDT

    Bonus question, does mac os save an icon copy somewhere after you've changed it, so I can delete the original?

    It seems I'm getting ads coming through on Youtube and other streaming sites.

    Any suggestions?

    I'm on 10.14 beta.

    [suggestion] calculator app should decrease hit-space/button

    Posted: 25 Jul 2018 03:46 PM PDT

    I always find myself miss-clicking, or having to lift my finger constantly to press buttons on the calculator app. I didn't think this was a problem until I used an on-screen calculator app whose buttons were much smaller/round. Input of numbers was much faster with far fewer miss-clicks.

    Sorry, was just asking because it's the OS I grew up with 😅.

    Info shows incorrect count

    Posted: 25 Jul 2018 10:17 AM PDT

    I have a folder with 13 images in it. That is what the finder shows and that is what I see when I use the terminal. I have checked with hidden files showing and not.

    When I do a getinfo on the folder it claims 14 images. Bizarre. Anyone know why that would be?

    Running High Sierra 10.13.6

    Need help with missing kext in 10.13.4

    Posted: 25 Jul 2018 06:30 AM PDT

    Hello all, I could really use some help with a missing AMDRadeonX3000.kext file.

    I am running High Sierra 10.13.4 on a late-2011 MBP with a recently failed 6770M.

    I followed MikeyN's guide to disabling the burnt-out gpu to a tee, including the following steps:

    mkdir -p /System/Library/Extensions-off

    mv /System/Library/Extensions/AMDRadeonX3000.kext /System/Library/Extensions-off/

    touch /System/Library/Extensions/

    reboot

    I verified that the system was now functional and that it was running on the Intel 3000 as expected. I then rebooted in single-user mode and ran:

    sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions-off/AMDRadeonX3000.kext

    but was very surprised to get the following error:

    /System/Library/Extensions-off/AMDRadeonX3000.kext failed to load - (libkern/kext) not found; check the system/kernel logs for errors or try kextutil(8).

    When I changed to the /Extensions-off directory and did a ls on the contents, the file was inexplicably not there.

    Now after rebooting a couple of times and searching around on the system for the file, the entire /Extensions-off directory is gone too!

    I am really baffled as to why this has happened.

    What should I do now? This step is crucial for reducing the system temperature so I really need to resolve this before moving forward. I have no backup of this kext.

    I have an external hdd with a Sierra 10.12.6 install; what about copying over the AMDRadeonX3000.kext from that install? On 10.13.4, the three remaining AMD kexts which are running return a version number of 1.6.6; obviously it will be different on the Sierra 10.12.16 install, but would it matter?

    Sincere thanks in advance for any help.

    Disabling 'Quick Event' in Calendar

    Posted: 25 Jul 2018 10:13 AM PDT

    Any ideas how to disable the 'quick event' calendar suggestions? I rarely have an event that shares all the same details as previous event so I'd rather enter it manually vs. have to go through and edit a 'suggested' event.

    HyperThreading

    Posted: 25 Jul 2018 02:55 AM PDT

    I've noticed playing WoW on my core I7 iMac that only ever other "cpu" is being used. It seems that Mac OS won't use both threads of a core, unless necessary. Is this just a weird occurrence or is this something that Mac OS actually does? I can't find anything else online about it. Have any of you noticed this aswell?

    Edit: heres a link showing what im trying to explain https://imgur.com/a/QLF8HJc
