    About to buy a $3300 MacBook Pro and I’m scared to death, tips for protecting it?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 09:42 PM PDT

    Hello, I am a student and am about to spend a lot of my savings and my financial aid reward on a 2019 15 MacBook Pro, 32gb ram, i9 5ghz, 1tb, 560X.

    I don't really want to do apple care, so how else do I protect It? Cases, screen protectors, give me some tips?

    What monitor for MacBook Air (mid-2012)?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 08:27 PM PDT

    Hi folks! I'm in need of a monitor for my MacBook Air (mid-2012, 11 inch, MacOs 10.14.5). I'll be sitting roughly 2-2.5 feet away from it. I'd prefer a larger screen (I really need the real estate) and have been eyeing off a secondhand 27-inch Apple Thunderbolt Display, and a secondhand Apple Cinema Display (27-inch or 20-inch). Would any of these be compatible with my Air? Should I go with one of them or something else? It would be a good bonus if it could connect to a new non-Apple PC as well (happy to buy accessories or adaptors to make that happen) or extend to a second display if needed. Thanks!

    Macbook pro battery replacement

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 08:23 PM PDT

    I have gone to a private place to get my battery replaced, they said they are ordering my battery for tomorrow and that I will need to give them my laptop password

    For a battery replacement, is there any reason why I would need to give them my laptop login details?

    Message says “Delivered” on Mac, but says nothing on iPhone

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 07:39 PM PDT

    I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this. I have sent a message on my iPhone to a person, and the "Delivered" label wasn't showing. Although, when I opened iMessage on my MacBook the "Delivered" label was there. So in conclusion has my message been sent or not? I wouldn't normally detect a detail like that, but I have my suspicions of that specific person blocking me

    IPAD MINI WIFI AND AIRDROP PROBLEMS!!!

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 06:41 PM PDT

    I've been having issues with my iPad mini 5th Gen on the latest update. For some reason my iPad mini will not stay connected to WiFi OR it shows such a week connection that WiFi doesn't even come up. My iPhone has no issues but my iPad is having this problem No matter where I go. I've reset my network settings on my ipad, reset my iPad, turned off networking location service, turned off Bluetooth, reset all setting on my IPad, drained the battery to dead and tried again, airdrop doesn't even show up on anyone's radar even tho it's set to "everyone", airplane mode on and off and no change. I just bought this about 2 months ago.

    I did drop it a week ago and shattered the screen and when I got it repaired this problem started. Maybe it's a hardware issue internally but if so I would love to know what to fix on the inside. I'm at a loss at this point. THANKS WHOMEVER CAN HELP!

    Water Spilled on 2018 Macbook Pro 13" (Not dead, but still drying)

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 06:33 PM PDT

    Today, water spilled on a colleagues Macbook Pro keyboard (over the qwerty keys, not the whole keyboard). We promptly sopped up the water with a paper tower, powered the device off and propped it upside down with towels to draw out moisture. It currently is still in this state, powered off, and we plan to keep it that way.

    I read that the newer Macbooks are designed with a rubber lip to keep out dust, but perhaps stands a chance against water.

    I'm looking for advice on next steps here. We acted very quickly (credit where it's due, right?) and are still making sure the device is dry. Should we attempt to power on after 48 hours? Do people take it to an Apple store before powering it on so they can open/assess it before potential short-circuit? Thoughts welcome.

    Is it possible to view HDR content on my 2016 MacBook Pro?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 02:15 PM PDT

    I've found out that Apple says that only the 2018 and newer Macs support 4K HDR. But as far as I can tell, there's no differences between the 2018 MacBook Pro screens and the 2016 screens that affect HDR support. They both support the wide P3 color gamut and have the same max brightness. So iTunes and the new Apple TV app probably won't let me download or view HDR content, but if I download a HDR movie from a different source, what will happen? Alternatively, if I boot into Windows 10, will it then let me view HDR video?

    Any chance my external hard drive can be reformatted for a Mac?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 05:45 PM PDT

    I bought a 2TB external hard drive on Amazon Prime day for 30 percent off! Great! Awesome deal, more than enough space I needed!

    But I messed up! I was so excited about the sale that I didn't check to see if it was compatible with Macs! And naturally, it's not. But it's such a good hard drive and exactly what I need! I don't want to have to sell it. I mean, it's USB 3, like there's no problem with it plugging in. It just like won't work. It should be able to be reformatted, shouldn't it?

    2FA user login iMac / Macbook?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 05:42 PM PDT

    Hello,

    Is it possible to have 2FA on user login on an iMac and/or MacBook?
    I am referring to the user login upon computer start-up. I can't find a 2FA option, only a password option.

    If not, are there other additional ways to protect user login (on top of a password)?

    Thanks in advance! :)

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 05:24 PM PDT

    So recently my mom's phone has been bugging where I am unable to receive her imessages. The weird thing is she is able to text other people through imessage and I have been able to text other people through iMessage, just I am not receiving any of her texts. Even when its sent as a text they dont always go through. Any know solutions? Most solutions are for when imessages all together arent sending but it just seems to be to my number and no one elses.

    iPad 6th Gen screen unresponsive

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 05:00 PM PDT

    I updated my iPad to beta 13 and it was working fine, aside from some minor bugs. I was playing a game on it at work and the screen just randomly stopped working. From restarting it to restoring it as a new device, the screen still does not work. I contacted apple and they said to bring it in for a check, but since the device is out of warrantee I don't want to pay for them to check it out for it to be something I could've done. Is my screen bad or is there other things I can do to trouble shoot? Thanks.

    Error message "The operation cannot be completed" when deleting or changing files

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 04:55 PM PDT

    I have an iPad mini 4. The full error message is "The operation can't be completed. Unauthorized HTTP status code. Couldn't parse response."

    It only seems to be documents under files, I can delete photos from the gallery just fine. I can't delete or change the name of files.

    Edit: I've just realized this is only the case in my personal onedrive folder. It does not occur in my school email onedrive folder.

    Issues with MacBook Air.

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 04:38 PM PDT

    I've been having issues watching videos full-screen on the Chrome browser. White/black Glitches appear across the screen. I've been to the Apple store twice - the first time they replaced the display. The second visit was meant to change the logic board but when they ran 'extensive tests' they found no issues and did not place the logic board.

    I am still having this problem and any advice on what to do next would be great.

    My iPhone 6 won't open.

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 04:18 PM PDT

    My iPhone 6 was broken months ago. I replaced the battery, replaced the screen and tried to open it. It never turns on. So I tried charging it, no response. I plug it to my Mac, iTunes recognizes the phone and it appears that it is successfully charging. I tried holding the Home and Wake button at the same time, no effect. Every time I would plug it, the phone would vibrate twice. What can I do now?

    Looking for new iMac — Need Help!

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 03:17 PM PDT

    I currently have a CTO Late 2014 iMac with the Quad Core i7, 3TB Fusion Drive, 24GBs RAM and the AMD Radeon 290X w/2GB vRAM — and the display is starting to kick the bucket.

    I use it mainly for Gaming, video editing and photoshop. Gaming is the biggest thing I do on it now a days, I mostly play strategy games like Steel Division, Imperator: Rome, Hearts of Iron IV, etc.

    Normally I'd know exactly what I want however with the new iMacs that launched and their objectively bad config options I don't know what to do. My biggest concern is processor options, I'm worried the 6 core i5 in the base models isn't enough but the i9 is way overkill. So yeah, looking for help with my upgrade :)

    Group Chat Issues, please help!! (iphone xs)

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 03:03 PM PDT

    so for the past 2-3 days i have not been receiving messages from group chats throughout the day. never had this problem before. the only way to receive the messages is if i power off my phone and turn it back on. ive tried literally everything to fix it. flipping all the text settings on/off, reset network settings, turn airplane mode on/off, etc. i can only get them after restarting the phone. its weird. my brother, who is on the same phone plan and in the same chat has no issues. i went to the verizon store and they couldnt understand it either after checking my settings. he played around with it and said if it continues to go to the apple store. anyone else having this issue? i dont want to go there if its an easy fix.

    Father forgot the .Mac email he used while setting up ipad, is it a goner?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 02:56 PM PDT

    My father has a 6th generation ipad which hes given to me. it has a .mac email address for the icloud but he cant remember ever setting up a mac email for that or even a password. I know that you're pretty much hosed about getting into your apple account if you forget your password and id probably just wipe this ipad and start over (no worries about data loss) except you need a password to do anything like that right?

    other details:

    6th generation 9.7" 256gb

    iOS 10.3.3

    He is also signed into the app store under the same email name but ends in Gmail.

    How to reinstall Windows 10 on mid2011 iMac with Bootcamp?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 02:41 PM PDT

    Hello all,

    several months ago I posted a topic asking about Bootcamp on a 2011 iMac, but received no responses so I thought I'd try again.

    Background: back in 2015 I successfully installed Windows 10 on my iMac (iMac 21.5-inch mid-2011, 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5) via Bootcamp, using a Windows 10 license (burned onto a CD) I got as a gift. I'm pretty sure I didn't use a bootable flash drive, but as of now that would be necessary as I've replaced the optical drive with a SSD. I had some minor and common issues at first (such as having no audio), but eventually those were resolved and the partition worked perfectly. I no longer have this partition and am interested in installing the OS again, but I don't remember how I did it back then.

    Issue 1: Boot Camp Assistant claims 'Windows 10 is not supported on this Mac'. Support software is already installed onto a flash drive. How would I go about installing Windows 10 if it's unsupported, and how did I manage to do it in the first place all those years ago? Did something change between then and now? I have tried some tricks that supposedly allow you to install the OS on an unsupported machine but those ultimately failed.

    Issue 2: A little while ago I tried using Parallels and it ran rather well, except that I couldn't use my Windows license key because it didn't register my computer as being the same one where I previously installed Windows. If I manage to install the OS again, would it accept my license key again?

    Any help is appreciated.

    My iPhone 8 home button doesn't unlock quickly?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 02:34 PM PDT

    So what's the deal with the home button. I've set up the finger print ID. But when I'm trying to unlock my phone, I have to still "click" the home button.

    Is there not a way for you to simply rest your finger on the home button and get it to unlock that way?

    Because I've seen my friend with his 8 plus literally tap his home button and it would unlock his phone.

    This is the second iPhone 8 I've had this "issue" with so I'm guessing it's not actually an issue. Is there a setting I'm missing? Because again, I've seen my friends 8 plus unlock with just a tap.

    AirPods from another country

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 09:46 AM PDT

    I'm wondering if there is an issue if was to buy AirPods from another country (I'm from the UK). The airpods I'm enquiring about are from Hong Kong from a website called gdprice.co.uk. They are legit and have apple warranty, but I want to know if there will be anything different from the Hong Kong ones and the UK ones. I'm thinking that the language will be different or that the UK apple store won't accept it if I use the warranty. Is there anything else?

    Seeking: Least path of resistance

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 09:39 AM PDT

    Hi. The wife and I have identical 2013 MacBook Airs. I use mine daily, she maybe uses hers every couple months. Needless to say, I have something nearing 400 battery cycles to her ~50. I'm starting to see the battery lifespan get shorter in every use. Rather than upgrade, I want to swap all: settings, apps and files between the two machines and just get all the life out of them prior to upgrading.

    Please assume I can get them on the same OS versions or whatever, I also have enough spare machines in my house to do backups, etc if needed, but wondered if there was a faster way.
