    Can’t reinstall Catalina - please help!

    Posted: 23 Oct 2020 12:08 AM PDT

    1) 2020 MacBook Pro first ever.

    2) Made the biggest mistake in hindsight - tried Public Beta Big Sur. It was working ok but anytime there was a new System update, it would fail to download. Decided to boot into recovery mode and restore

    3) Formatted drive (500g) AFPS

    4) Shift option cmd r went into internet recovery. Clicked reinstall MacOS Catalina.

    5) Tried twenty times - it'd give me the pk download error at 2 mins remaining mark

    I've tried resetting NVRAM. Disable SIP but literally nothing seems to work.

    Apple stores are not taking Genius Bar appointments. Please help me avoid sending this in.

    OSX install app

    Posted: 22 Oct 2020 11:43 PM PDT

    Hi,

    So, I have the following problem.

    I am using a mbp 16" that came with Catalina. I need to run in VMware Fusion HighSierra(this one for 32 bit app support, since I am working on porting an existing app from 32b to 64b) and Catalina(for testing and tweaking what I am working in the other vm, without breaking my guest os).

    If I head to the app store I can't seem to be able to download the app file required by vmware, and online on Apple's website I can only download a full dmg image that does not work for VMware.

    My older osx downloads are not present in the app store since this is a work machine and when I try to download Catalina it takes me to the update screen in the settings menu.

    Is there anything I can do?

    *Note that I am new to this. Up until this point I have been developing software exclusively on Linux, my personal Mac being my "home web&mail access" machine.

    Does your download of large files > 1GB with Safari also often gets cut off?

    Does your download of large files > 1GB with Safari also often gets cut off?

    Hi there,

    I am using a MBP16 with Safari. Quite often when I download larger files (either from dropbox, google drive or an ISO from a website), somehow Safari will show this (stopped):

    https://preview.redd.it/k7a63quqesu51.png?width=864&format=png&auto=webp&s=9b7e635d859ff8afe6d5c7e4872721863b1d9fe4

    So when I press resume it doesn't work, then I have to download this again. And it happens again. Out of frustration I download it via Chrome and it never has any of these issues.

    Do you experience the same? Is it something I can fix? Or is it just a Safari 'thing'?

    Unable to move mac OS Mojave v10.14.6's Mail app's local e-mail copies to local Mac's folders offline?

    Posted: 22 Oct 2020 10:39 PM PDT

    Hello.

    My client lost most (thousands) of his e-mails on his IMAP servers, but he still has most of them as local copies in his old 2012 13.3" MacBook Pro (MBP)'s mac OS Mojave v10.14.6's Mail app when I checked offline (no wifi connection for Internet). I tried to move his thousands e-mails to new local folders, but they didn't move at all. They got stuck at the first one. I am trying to save them before he uses his MBP's and to his iPhone 11 Pro Max's Mail apps online again. I am hoping I can put them back on his IMAP servers and iPhone with this method.

    Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

    work Mac won't let wallpaper changes

    Posted: 22 Oct 2020 09:39 PM PDT

    So I'm assigned a work Mac and I can't change the wallpaper. Somehow it's preventing me from setting a desktop image, or use apps like Irvue so it changes everyday.

    Is there a way to Terminal code my way around here so I can enjoy beautiful wallpapers from Unsplash everyday across my multiple screen? #smalljoys

    Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me.

    Macbook Air (2017) won’t update to 10.15.7

    Posted: 22 Oct 2020 05:15 PM PDT

    I've been trying to install 10.15.7 to my mac for some weeks now. When I press "install", it doesn't say that anything is wrong. The mac restarts, the apple logo shows up with a bar under it, the "install" is done after 10 seconds, I log in, and it says that 10.15.7 is available. This happens every time.

    The first time I tried, I had about 8 GB available diskspace, and I didn't get any message that it needed more diskspace. (The update-file only takes up about 2,5 GB, so I thought 8 GB should be good enough..) I deleted some files and programs, so that I got over 20 GB free diskspace. Still not working. Someone said it could be because of Avast, so I deleted it, but still not working. I also tried to download the update from support.apple.com, but it was the same problem there. Also tried "safe-mode". Didn't work..

    To me it doesn't make any sense that I would need more than 20 GB free diskspace to install a 2,5 GB update..

    Anyone have any idea of what could be wrong? I'm almost giving up..

    Low GPU utilization in macOS with GTX 680 (Mojave)

    Posted: 22 Oct 2020 04:22 PM PDT

    Low GPU utilization in macOS with GTX 680 (Mojave)

    I've recently upgraded my cMP 3,1's GPU to a GTX 680 2GB which currently running at x16 with both power cables plugged. But now, I have a weird performance problem.

    Unlike my old GTX 650, when I try to run benchmarks or games on macOS, the GPU usage usually sits around 20-50%. And the GPU fan tends to be way quieter compared to bootcamp.

    The thing literally goes berserk under Windows 10. But becomes the quiet kid in macOS.

    GPU is running at half load in Unigine Heaven Basic \"mode\", just enough to give me ~45-50 FPS. It only gets around 99% in Extreme mode, which again gives me ~40-45 fps.

    The only two instance I get full performance under macOS is when I run Unigine in Extreme mode and the other is FurMark test. Furmark test results are same with Windows but Unigine was nowhere near it.

    It even dropped to 5-10% during mid-game. Why does macOS do this to me?.

    More than half of the GPU and CPU always left unused.. Why? What's the problem..

    Any ideas?

    cMP 3,1 Quad-Core 2,80 GHz
    RAM: 16 GB 800 MHz
    GTX 680 (Width x16, Link speed 5.0GT/s)
    240 GB SSD boot drive.

    EXTREMELY slow macOS Catalina 10.15.6. Are there any clear identifiers in my specs?

    Posted: 22 Oct 2020 04:00 PM PDT

    Startup is slow, taking about 8 minutes from powering on to being able to open application like Google Chrome. Opening any application takes ages. Even the summoning of Siri takes about a minute to load.

    My apologies if I leave any information out that could be useful, I'm just a typical Apple user.

    photos library

    hi guys!!

    What is going to happen if I delete this? (photos library).

    Is it just going to remove 45GB of photos from cache, or is it actually going to delete 45GB photos from my iCloud library?

    Missing Storage on Mac OS Catalina

    Posted: 22 Oct 2020 01:49 PM PDT

    tl:dr My mac has a large amount of storage missing due to misc. files that I have no knowledge nor can I locate them. Even after wiping the OS it still said only 39 GB of space was free.

    Hey everyone!

    So about 6 months ago I was trying to recover some files from my iphone. The software was running for a while before I realized that all these recovered files were being store on my very small 128 Gb SSD. I instantly pulled the plug in the operation, but the damage was already done. It had downloaded 30-40+Gbs worth of files, which were all stored in the "other files" category. I think stopping it in in it's tracks left a bunch of useless files on my hard drive.

    A similar thing happened a few months after as well after downloading iMovie to computer. I believe I may have clicked on an option which was downloading an entire library. I had realized that this wasn't some 100-200 mb library, but rather one which took up 20 GBs of space though it wasn't even finished yet. I also stopped this process in it's track. I was able to deleted a lot of the iMovie files, but I still had a pretty large portion of my used storage categorized as "other storage".

    I just decided to reset my mac to factory settings by wiping the entire drive. I found that while navigating to the install option that of my 121 GB of Available storage, my computer was telling me that only 39 GB was free. This was a little concerning to me. I'm not sure if anyone can lend any advice to me about things to do.
