| Posted: 19 Jun 2020 09:43 PM PDT Just for context, my partner's mother has decided to give away her Mid 2011 27inch Imac to me for free and i will be doing upgrades on the ram and changing the HD out for a SSD. The latest macos it can go to is high sierra. I was wondering if there were any issues with using High Sierra compared to Mojave etc in 2020 that will make me reconsider taking the Imac such as compatibility with apps/ devices (such as airpods 2, Ipad 2017, Macbook Pro 2019)? I would be ideally be using it for university studies, light gaming and some light video editing. Thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 19 Jun 2020 10:29 PM PDT I've got a 2014 MBP and just purchased a 32" 4k monitor (60Hz refresh rate) for it connected via Mini Displayport to Displayport, but when running resource-intensive applications things begin to get hot real quick and even start stuttering/lagging, even though they generally run perfectly fine without being connected to the display. So I've been researching different methods for decreasing system load, helping my CPU (whether it be faster performance for certain apps or a balance to prevent overheating), and adjusting display options for better external screen performance. These are the one's I've come across, and I have have missed a few off memory, but I'm trying to see if there are any others that aren't as obvious that could help in any way besides buying an eGPU or brand new MacBook Pro.
What else is there? In addition to that, I use Ableton with my monitor primarily and did something in there to help in case anyone also uses Ableton and struggles with performance on a higher resolution monitor:
-Copy and paste one of the following to force how many frames per second Ableton runs at:
But back to the point, are there any other lesser-known performance boosters? [link] [comments]  | ||
| macOS Catalina doesn't recognise any external displays when connected. Posted: 19 Jun 2020 09:18 PM PDT Do any of guys have any problem plugging your Mac running Catalina to an external display and recognise by it. Seems to me that ever since macOS Catalina the action of plugging a USB-C to HDMI cable to an external display is kinda botched and I just got my brand new MacBook Pro 13" 2020 (4 USB-C ports) the other day and wanted to see if it'll connect to an external display and isn't recognised. I've followed some troubleshooting on the Apple Support page from users facing this issue but doesn't seem to work for me. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Mail Left Swipe Gesture Behavior: Can It Be Customized per Mailbox? Posted: 19 Jun 2020 07:22 PM PDT Device: MacBook Pro 2015 Retina 15in OS X: 10.15.5 Hello, Thank you for reading this. To expand on the title, I think it might be best to start with the scenario that I'm having an issue with. So I have two mail accounts; let's say "work" and "personal." For whatever reason, I can't archive emails in my work account, but I can in my personal account. So ideally, whenever I use the left swipe gesture on a work email, I want it to trash the mail—while the same gesture would archive a personal email. Is this possible? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Catalina 10.15.5 crash reboot when disconnecting usb-c hub Posted: 19 Jun 2020 07:20 PM PDT Hey everyone! So ever since I upgraded to Catalina my MBP 2019 has been crashing when unplugging the ubs-c docking station (Kensington SD4700P) after several hours of use. If It was just plugged a couple hours ago, I can normally unplug the docking station but once it is plugged 1-2 days in a row I can't unplug it without the computer crashing and rebooting. When it crashes it freezes for a couple seconds (~30) and then the fans suddenly sound a lot and the screen goes black. While freezed, I cannot click or do anything and the screens (even the ones that are no longer connected) all have the last displayed screen frozen. Sometimes it just happens out of nowhere after some time being connected. Again this only happens with usb-c hubs. If I connect multiple screens through individual usb-c ports it doesn't crash when unplugged. Here is the crashlog from the last time it happened (out of nowhere). Any help would be awesome!

| Restore backup files onto new copy of OS Posted: 19 Jun 2020 05:20 PM PDT I am having OS Mojave issues and am trying to restore my backup on a clean copy of the OS. Migration assistant isn't working so I am forced to restore a Time Machine backup. Correct me if I'm wrong but this reinstalls the same old copy of Mac OS right?? I don't want this because my copy is corrupted, and I need a new one, while still keeping my same old files. Here's the process I went through where I would run into issues: -Time machine backup -Restart in repair mode (Cmd-R) -Erase Macintosh HD -Install new copy of OS Mojave on Macintosh HD -Attempt to restore from backup with Migration Assistant in new OS setup page, but halfway through, it stops with an error message saying it quit unexpectedly, try again later. -Go through rest of setup into completely fresh mac, no old data from backup -Now restart in repair mode again and select "restore from Time Machine backup". I am pretty sure I am now going to be stuck back at square one on the same damn corrupted OS I was dealing with in the first place. Is there another way to solve my problem? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Wiping a 2013 Mac Pro from work - can't log-in Posted: 19 Jun 2020 11:18 AM PDT Hi, I've got a 2013 Mac Pro from my work that is now my own. However, when I brought it home, I'm locked out of the log-in screen (partially due to "Network accounts are unavailable." error?) Our IT advised us to re-install Mac OS from Recovery mode in order to wipe the computer/get access. Allegedly, someone else in the same position did this and when they rebooted, were prompted to create a new account. Unfortunately, when I re-install (tried both same version and Catalina), it boots to the same log-in screen (albeit with the new OS wallpaper in the background). I figured I could instead use Disk Utility in Recovery mode to wipe the computer, but given the systems IT has put in place, I've been told that this could risk bricking the system. Any thoughts?

| Alternative qllmageSize Catalina Posted: 19 Jun 2020 04:06 PM PDT Hello everyone) can anyone tell me if the alternative for mac os catalina of the qlImageSize extension is to add size and resolution to the "quick view" header? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Mail App deleting event invitation email Posted: 19 Jun 2020 02:36 PM PDT So I have notice something when you get an email that has invitation event it, you get a suggestion to add it to your calendar (Accept, Maybe and decline) if you choose any of the calendar suggestions the mail app automatically deletes the email. Now I already know that If I go to my calendar and go to the event on the Note section I can see email detail but it's really hard to read the information there I rather read it in the Mail app. So does anyone know how to stop Mail app from doing this?

| Pinch to Zoom on Catalina with Magic Mouse. Posted: 19 Jun 2020 08:51 AM PDT Kinda new to macOS. Just bought a magic mouse 2. Can i mimic the pinch to zoom on it using BetterTouchTool or any other app? only thing i seem to find is the Zoom in/out of windows not text where the cursor resides. Thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Was Catalina a worthwhile update in your experience? Posted: 19 Jun 2020 12:17 PM PDT I'm running a VM with MacOS 10.15 Catalina. Some music applications straight up will not work and things like the Dolphin Emulator and WINE do not work thanks to (I believe?) notarization. The same notarization has also made some games impossible to run on the OS. So for me personally I'll be running my VM on a previous version. How was it for you guys? [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 19 Jun 2020 11:10 AM PDT I can't get rid of my istat menus on my menu bar even after I deleted the application. I just got my MBP and I don't hear the fan go on even when the sensor temp hovers around 120F. Do you think iStat is suppressing my fan? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Best least CPU intensive browser Posted: 19 Jun 2020 10:43 AM PDT I've been using brave browser for the past couple of weeks. Before that was opera and my laptop was working fine. But now that I switched my fans have been running nonstop for hours even with a few tabs. Anyone recommend the least CPU intensive browser that won't make my fans run like a jet engine?

| PS3 pr PS4 controller for Macbook / Steam Posted: 19 Jun 2020 09:11 AM PDT Hello all, I'm looking to get a controller for my Macbook to play Steam games on it. It there any difference using a PS3 or PS4 dualshock controller ? I guess that the PS3 version should be enough, as I obviously won't benefit from vibration and central pad for steam games, but what about ease of use and connection stability ? I don't mind paying a few extra bucks if it makes things working easier. Note that I'm on OSX High Sierra. Thanks in advance for your feedback, I've been googling but didn't find any precise information [link] [comments]  | ||
| Created "Recent Documents" Smart Folder, Sort Order Messed Up Posted: 19 Jun 2020 08:42 AM PDT I've created a new smart folder called "Recent Documents" where it specifically shows me all the recent documents I've created. However, I noticed that the sort order is all messed up when viewing the folder. It starts with documents i created today but then sometimes documents i created are not in this list but rather in a list called "Earlier" within the same finder view further down. Why does this happen? I simply want to see the most recently created documents at the very top of the list. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? [link] [comments]  |
