    As Mac users, why does anyone use Chrome?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 06:50 AM PDT

    I have gone on a bit of a privacy crusade lately, setting up a PiHole server, etc. I've never used Chrome, Gmail, and have avoided Google products for as long as I can. But everyone in my family (all Mac users) use Chrome and I do not know why. Why does anyone here?

    How to fix thin fonts after 10.14.4 update?

    Posted: 01 Jul 2019 02:18 AM PDT

    After update all fonts on my macbook got thinner, similar to Mojave release date fonts which I got fixed.

    I tried " defaults write -g CGFontRenderingFontSmoothingDisabled -bool NO " , but this had no result. How do I make fonts look normal again?

    Why do they keep breaking things..

    Apple Notes not syncing consistently via iCloud from MacOS

    Posted: 01 Jul 2019 01:06 AM PDT

    I am desperately trying to adopt the core Apple Notes as my system of record for meeting notes, etc but am frustrated by its inconsistent syncing in iCloud.

    Does anyone have a fix?

    IoS to IoS seems to work fine... even with a mix of IOS12 and IOS13, where my iPhone and iPad are fairly good at keeping in sync.

    However, my Macbook Pro is extremely flakey and will sync only circa 5% of the time. I am running High Sierra. I have tried the usual tricks of turning iCloud sync on/off, logging out of iCloud, logging in via the iCloud web interface to try and force changes through, rebooting all devices, etc.

    Every now and again it will start syncing again (it does not Seem to be location or network specific either) but it is so unreliable and only works for 10-15 minutes before the Mac drops out of sync again and I need to clear the local notes and wait for it to decide to try again.

    Has anyone else witnessed / fixed this issue?

    Thanks in advance

    Windows-style folder icons in Mac OS?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 05:19 PM PDT

    So I use both Macs and PC's in my day-to-day life, and while I overall prefer MacOS, one thing that is difficult is not having the preview-style folder icons that Windows has. For instance, if you have a bunch of pictures of boats in a Windows folder, the default icon will likely be a boat. This is useful as many of my work folders are similarly named, so having that visual distinction is often helpful to prevent me from having to open multiple folders to find the right contents. I know you can go in and customize the icon of each folder, but after years of pictures, I have way too many folders for that to be practical at this point, from a time-standpoint. So is there an app or some other way to automatically have folders feature an example of its contents?

    Remote Access to iMac from PC

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 04:57 PM PDT

    Hello,

    Sorry if this topic has been beaten to death but I cannot seem to find exactly what I'm looking for - any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm looking to be able to access my iMac remotely with a PC. My iMac is always on so there's that...

    Any software you guys recommend or is there something already built in? Since my iMac is mid-2011, I have macOS High Sierra and cannot upgrade to Mojave.

    Thanks in advance!

    Stuck in Internet Recovery after erasing volume.

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 02:02 PM PDT

    Stuck in Internet Recovery after erasing volume.

    Hello Reddit,

    After feeling disappointed by the open-beta of Catalina, I launched Disk Utility and erased the volume, in order to install Mojave again.

    Now, after the restart, the mac goes right to the bootcamp with windows 10's blue screen (after I deleted it while back, and in some reason is still there).

    When I tried to boot with COMMAND + R, it goes to the Internet Recovery screen with the spinning globe.
    No progress bar appear, and it throws 2002F error after ~10 minutes.

    My model is MacBookPro 2015 13".

    What should I do?
    I'm considering:

    1. Try to connect to the internet via cable (USB to RJ-45 adapter)
    2. Try to boot from USB drive with Mojave installation on it (I need another Mac for this, might take a while)
    3. Replace SSD (want to upgrade anyway).

    Thanks!

    How to Change "Show Spotlight Search" Shortcut (HELP PLEASE)

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 05:16 AM PDT

    Hi,

    I'm trying to change my Show Spotlight Search Bar shortcut to: Command, Command (pressing it twice)

    I have this for Alfred, but want to dump Alfred and just go with Spotlight from now on--but sticking to my old Command-Command shortcut to start searching for things.

    I don't think it lets me do this in Preferences. If not, does anyone know a way to do it through the Terminal?

    Thanks!

    Photos importing original and edited photos

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 12:42 PM PDT

    Everytime I try to import my pictures to my Macbook Air early 2014 from my iPhone 7, Photos separates the edits from the oirginal image. Is there a way to stop this? I only want the edited versions, not the originals. It does this for almost half of my photos so it adds up and is very annoying.
