    iCloud Directory location in Catalina

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 11:12 AM PDT

    Catalina broke my existing softlinks. In case anyone is interested, the location for iCloud directory is now /Users/<username>/Library/CloudStorage/iCloud Drive. The older one was: /Users/<username>/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs

    Syncing music on iOS 13 X CATALINA

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 07:16 PM PDT

    Hey guys, not sure if anyone else has been having these issues...

    Basically its a hit/miss and I find NO LOGIC to the issue here

    1) I can cleanly sync one album by an artist, then drag drop the next and it is not even possible to select my iPhone on the "drop" part of the drag drop.....

    literally 30 seconds apart, and it discriminates between these two albums for no reason....

    I restart my phone, my Mac, my iTunes, unplug, plug back in , repeat 400000000 times, and suddenly it works once, then again its a mess.

    anyone know how to sync music cleanly?

    Does Catalina change Auto-Brightness behavior?

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 08:21 PM PDT

    In Mojave I have to reset SMC in order to tell MacOS to fully take control of auto brightness if I inadvertently adjust it using the keyboard. I was wondering if Catalina made it like iOS where toggling the auto brightness setting in preferences reset the calibration and set it back to "full auto" instead of having to manually restart and reset SMC.

    Formatting it like a new HD?

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 05:52 PM PDT

    Complete noob here so bare with me.

    I received a 2nd hand MacBook Air that had been "wiped". When they gave it to me it looks like they might have wiped something it needed because it's in an endless boot to macOS utilities loop. When I try to remove the partitions it has left to start from new it says it can't do it because they are "active", if I try to unmount it same thing obviously.

    When I try to reinstall the os from the utilities it says the partition is locked (I also can't create a new partition because it can't shrink the other).

    Is there a way from terminal to remove everything and start as if it were a fresh HD out of the box (software wise).

    Does Safari help with Battery efficiency?

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 05:05 PM PDT

    I've been using Chrome for a long time since i heard that's it's the best. However I've noticed that it drains battery so quickly. Is Safari better now. Should i start using it instead?

    Kernel Panic boot loop on 2015 iMac / Mojave - log inside, please take a look!

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 07:17 AM PDT

    Late 2015 imac, running latest version of Mojave. Its been stuck in a boot loop / kernel panic. it boots in single user mode and safe mode so I was able to look at the kernel panic log. I was able to run apple hardware diag and came up all good. It appears to be corruption in the apfs file system? I Tried running disk utility and fcks in single usermode but always ultimately comes up with "repairs are disabled".

    [Bug] Remote connects don't work

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 04:52 PM PDT

    When trying to connect to RDP, I get the certificate error even though it's already trusted. You have not chosen to trust "AddTrust External CA Root", the issuer of the server's security certificate. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

    Blank Preview Icon for .MKV files on Catalina

    Blank Preview Icon for .MKV files on Catalina

    I just tried the new Catalina beta and noticed that the preview icons for .mkv files are now blank. I have been using IINA player. I've tried switching between setting QuickTime and IINA as the default and rebooting after each time. Does anyone have any other ideas?

    Example:

    //edit .Mkv files still play fine in IINA.

    Looking for a simple script to delete download folder on login

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 06:30 AM PDT

    Hello there,

    So we have 15± imac's here and we are trying to streamline how people work on them, so everybody works on the same account so people can flex, but now i need to empty the download folder on login or logout, is there a simple script for me to use? i don't have much experience with scripting so that's why i'm asking..

    Or if automator is more easy that's fine too, but i can't figure out how.

    Thanks in advance!

    Logitech g603 no longer connects easily on MacOS Mojave?

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 08:35 AM PDT

    To put it simply: It's connected. Shows up in bluetooth devices, won't work at all unless I manually disconnect and then reconnect.

    I've updated the firmware, I'm completely up to date on MacOS. I'm not sure what else to do. If anyone has some thoughts, I'd greatly appreciate them.

    Keyboard Maestro for window management with multiple screens?

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 10:33 AM PDT

    Hey all,

    I'm looking for a tool to solve an annoyance I have, and I think Keyboard Maestro might do it.

    I have a MacBook Pro, and when I'm at my desk, it's open and connected to two external monitors. I have my windows set up in a specific way for my workflow, but I also often have to disconnect from my monitors for meetings, etc. When I disconnect, the windows and spaces all get jumbled, and I have to reposition them to make sense again. The biggest complication I foresee here is that I often have multiple Chrome windows open, and each will have a different purpose.

    Here's a rough version of what I want to do:

    When connected to monitors:

    Chrome Window 1 on laptop screen, all other chrome windows on external screen 1, code editor on external screen 2.

    When disconnected from monitors:

    Chrome Window 1 on leftmost space, all other chrome windows to the right of that, code editor to the right of that.

    From the bit of research I've done, I haven't been able to find if you can position windows in different spaces with Keyboard Maestro. Is this possible?

    MacBook Pro 2018 Problem or MacOS or is it just me?

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 10:14 AM PDT

    There are a lot of times that when the MBP is booting up, and asking for the password, while I type in the correct password it is shaking and saying that the password is wrong a couple of times, until it accepts it. Does this happen to anyone else? Very weird to be honest. Also this has happened ever since I got it new, before updating to Mojave. Thank you!

    Catalina deleting not working

    Posted: 06 Jun 2019 09:25 AM PDT

    I have an early 2015 mbp with 128gb (I know that's stupid but I couldn't afford more at that Time), so as you can imagine Space is limited. I wanted to install the new Xcode Beta and at the beginning I had about 20gb of free space. I deleted the old Version of Xcode (which was about 8gb) and tried to clean the trash. It didn't finisch and I cancelled it, after that it seemed to be deleted. So then I tried to install the Beta. When I did this it said that I don't have enough free space, so I looked at my memory and I only had 9gb of free space (the file didn't unpack). Then I tried to uninstall a ipsw because it was 4gb and I didn't need it anymore - the same Problem with the trash reappered. After that there where 6 gb left and it was eventually getting less. Now theres no space left at all, I'm not able to delete anything nor installing the OS again because theres just no space. And no, I can't find any Field in the filesystem associated to that.

    Anyone knows what to do rather then resetting the mac?
