    I desperately need help. Is there any way this can be cleaned or reduced. I have a iPhone 6 Plus, and I know it shouldn’t be this bad. Any insight would be fantastic.

    A follow up from my previous post. Unable to get any bars on this phone despite the same sim working fine in another phone in the same location. Carrier unlocked and not blacklisted.

    Hi, I had posted earlier regarding a black speck in Macbook 16' screen, inshort I think is an insect, Apple concludes otherwise and denies warranty, the thread's been super informative and guys awesome, however with that I am thinking about suing, since I think a 3rd party is required, opinions ?

    Question About Using 2 Monitors and a MacBook Air

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 08:57 PM PDT

    Hi, I am currently looking at getting a MacBook Air (cheapest one for now) until Apple hopefully releases the 14" MacBook Pro and upgrade then.

    My question is this: can I connect two 4K monitors to the Air and have a 3 display setup? And if so, do I have to use Thunderbolt 3 displays? Or can I buy some sort of dongle and route them through that, yet still have both monitors display in 4K?

    Google and YouTube helped a little, but I'm still confused about how I can run an external hard drive, 2 monitors, and still have my MacBook charging somehow.

    Macbook A1181 White screen repairability?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 08:53 PM PDT

    Hello! I want to buy an early 2008 macbook a1181 as a daily laptop as i dont have a laptop. Currently my budget is only 45$ but im very well acquainted with computers and electronic repairs.

    How common is a White Screen caused by a dead logic board on one of these units?

    I have plenty of spare ram and hard drives to replace it with but thats about it. As far as i can tell A1181 Macbooks are Nintendo DS levels of tough.

    Install Catalina to internal SSD using external drive

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 08:22 PM PDT

    I have a 2012 MacBook Pro, I managed to get Catalina installed on the internal mechanical drive that's running a bit slow. I have an SSD that I'de like to use, however when I try internet recovery with it it'll default to Lion. I managed to install Catalina to an external HDD using an enclosure and usb. Is it possible to run Catalina on the external usb, then install from external to the SSD if I install it manually? Or is there a far easier way and I'm over complicating it. I'm new to Mac's, been a windows user mainly and dabbled a bit in Linux. Any help is appreciated!

    My wife’s MacBook screen started to do this. There is also a faint pink line down the center of the screen. Is it most likely a hardware issue?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 03:47 PM PDT

    Two Macintosh HD - Data disks that is taking up so much storage! I did some research and it’s because of Catalina but my MBP 2019 is running on Mojave... Can I delete one of them to clear up some storage space? Any advice would be helpful!

    Fixing overscan issue on Mac Mini connected to TV

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 06:26 PM PDT

    Hi,

    ​

    Running into an issue with overscan - I'm connecting my Mac mini to a shitty old TV I have (where I have to options on the TV menus to control overscan). The monitor is zoomed in such that the edges of the display are cut off (can't see the dock, top toolbar, etc.). I've gathered that the fix is to change the value in the following file, corresponding to the monitor I'm trying to edit for:

    /var/db/.com.apple.iokit.graphics

    However, I am unable to edit that file. When I try to edit, I get a message saying I cannot write to the folder it is in, and when I try to change the permissions of the folder, it says "The operation can't be completed because you don't have the necessary permission."

    At a bit of a loss as to what to do here. I am logged in to an administrator account, and am running 10.15.5.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Has anyone ever used an iPad / iPhone as a webcam on their Mac? How did it go?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 06:17 PM PDT

    I've been helping this artist get set up to do live classes over Zoom. It's her only way to make a living during the pandemic. I admit we don't have the best of equipment. 5 year old, crappy Android was out. So she had a 2010 Mac Book Air 13 and an Ipad Mini 1 or 2. We paid for the pro version of the Epoc Cam app on the iPad and installed the corresponding driver on the Mac. We bought one of those "goose neck" crane iPad holders so it could look down at the painting area. I don't know if we were supposed to have the back (better) camera pointed at the artwork but we used the front camera. Epoc Cam lets you use a USB option instead of WiFI if you pay for the app and that was better than WIFI which kept conking out.

    In extensive testing, it seemed like the classes would go fine. But when she had her first class last week -- the students complained there was a long delay between what she was talking about and them actually seeing things on the screen. My friend seems unwilling to get a newer laptop right now. I thought that maybe the iPad with a middleman (Epoc) was a bottleneck...so I suggested using a Logitech C920 that mounts to a tripod. I think the internet connection is fast enough and probably not the issue (at the time it was like a 200 / 12 connection)

    How could we make this better?

    Can you get a 4g plan on a 5g phone?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 02:19 PM PDT

    Sorry for the wall of text. I am thinking about getting the iPhone 11 but i want to wait to see if Apple will price drop after announcing the iPhone 12s. I heard leaks about Apple discontinuing the iPhone 11 because it would be similar in price to the 12s. I also heard that all iPhones will have 5g. Just in case those are true would i have to get a 5g plan out could i still use 4g? I really don't want to pay for a plan that i can't use because 5g is no where near me.

    Is there a way to block all text messages from people who aren't in your contacts?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 05:59 PM PDT

    I've been receiving a lot of scams and spam as text messages. I enabled the option to block iMessages from unknown people. But that's not enough. Is there anything else I can do? Or is there an app which would do that?

    Apple Watch Activation Lock Changed?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 05:49 PM PDT

    Hellooo! I have an Apple Watch 3 that has admittedly seen a lack of use during quarantine (I think I last used it in May or June), but today I went to try and charge it and everything aaand found out that the Activation Lock has been changed to an Apple ID that is definitely not mine or the one that I originally paired it to. The original pairing is still showing up under my ICloud, but not on Find my Iphone or anything like that. I can't pair it to my phone or really do anything with it, and the watch itself is showing just the setup screen... Is there anything I can do from my end to fix it? I've been crying for at least an hour thinking it's totally bricked but hopefully not all hope is lost :(

    Trouble with MacBook Pro 2020 USBC Ports

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 05:44 PM PDT

    I'm using the MacBook on my desk. I use an external monitor with the MacBook open for extra screen space. I use a USB mouse and keyboard and the charger.

    To do this I bought the Apple usbc AV digital adapter.

    I plug the power cable into the adapter along with the hdmi from the monitor and my USB dongle for the mouse and keyboard.

    Then I plug the AV adapter into my MacBook via a USBC extension cable.

    Now the problem: Everything works perfectly. But when I unplug the cable from the MacBook, go work on the couch or whatever, then come back and plug the cable back in, my mouse and keyboard do not work. Also if I'm using it on my desk with the cable plugged in, then I shut down the MacBook, my mouse and keyboard do not work upon startup unless I unplug the MacBooks power adapter from the wall.

    The only way to make it work is to unplug the MacBook charger from the AV adapter OR wall and plug it back in.

    Alternatively if I reset the NVRAM it will work until shutdown or unplugging the cable from the MacBook. HELP! Lol.
