    I want to ask my manager to give me a MacBook for software development.

    Posted: 31 May 2021 10:13 PM PDT

    So I'm a Software Engineer and I just completed my two years at this company so my appraisal is coming up. My company primarily uses Windows And Dell Laptops for everyone on the staff.

    Last year around this time I bought a MacBook Pro 13" for my personal use and I've found it to be great and I want to ask my manager to give me a MacBook Pro for my daily Software Development tasks - Now I don't think they'll give brand new machine but probably something a couple years older refurbished or something.

    I need to make a good argument in how MacBooks are much better for Software Developers than Windows. And I need help from you guys because I can't come up with good arguments.

    How long can my M1 MacBook Air last?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 12:28 PM PDT

    Hi guys, I just bought a new M1 MacBook Air and I was concerned about how long will it last. This is my first laptop not just the first Mac I have ever bought so I was wondering if you guys could help me with some tips on maintenance and extending a laptops life span. I have been a life long PC user and naturally got frustrated at frequent crashes and privacy issues. I also found that the hinge for the laptop is a bit stiff and is not easy to open with one hand, I am guessing with frequent use it will loosen up anyways. Appreciate the help!

    What is it with Safari in my MBA M1 being unable to load pages when searching via the address bar?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 04:06 AM PDT

    Safari would just give me an error after trying for at least a minute whenever i use the address bar to "google search".

    I know my internet connection is fine because loading pages or searching using Edge browser works perfectly fine and quickly at that. Tends to happen both when im connected to home and univerity wifi. Havent really tested elsewhere.

    Not sure if this is a common issue as this is my first few months of owning MacBook. Have had an ipad pro though for years now, for which Ive exclusively used Safari with no problem using the same network.

    Letting my MacBook run over night?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 09:58 PM PDT

    Hi

    Just wanted to know if it's bad and what are the consequences of letting my MacBook Air (Early 2015) mine cryptos over night (I use Amphetamine keep it awake) and so it runs Terminal the whole time.

    Oh I also turn off the brightness of the screen.

    Thanks

    MBA 2020 USB-C Hub

    Posted: 31 May 2021 11:20 AM PDT

    Just got a new MBA 2020 (i7, 16GB RAM, 500gb SSD). I am in need of a great reliable hub. I do like the look of the very slim hubs that can be attached and left on the side of the MBA and are flush with the width of the MBA, but I also don't mind ones with a short cable. However I have some specific needs for a hub so please suggest me hubs that either perfectly match or closely match the below port specs!

    Specs:

    [ ] (x1) USB-C port (Data & Pass-through charging)

    [ ](x2-3) USB-A 3.0 ports

    [ ](X1) SD Card Slot

    [ ] (x1) HDMI port (4k 30hz (or 60hz), 1080 60hz)

    [ ] (x1) Ethernet Port

    Does Examplify run smoothly on M1 Air?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 07:33 AM PDT

    Need to replace my old MBA, random shut down issue. I need a new computer for the Bar Exam.

    Anybody here using Examplify on M1 Air? How's the experience?

    Settling for M1 Air, MBP M1 is too expensive for me.

    Do I really need a Thunderbolt dock to use an external monitor with my Macbook?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 08:55 AM PDT

    I want to connect my Macbook Air M1 to an external monitor (4k, it has HDMI + DP). So when I'm researching this, it mostly says that I basically need a Thunderbolt dock to connect everything I need.

    However, most of those docks / hubs cost a lot, and I currently don't have much extra money to spend.

    All I want is just:

    • connect Macbook to monitor, and use it in clamshell mode
    • connect extra keyboard per bluetooth
    • connect mouse with USB

    Why would I need a dock for this? Shouldn't the two USB-C ports sufficient to connect all of this (keyboard is the Magic KB, which connects over Bluetooth) ?

    If those are my requirements, do I need to spend all that cash on dock? Or can I just buy a USB-C to DisplayPort cable and that's it?

    Looking forward to your advice

    EDIT: Why are the price differences so huge? There are some well-rated USB-C hubs with everything I need for like 50 bucks, in the other hand some of the docks cost 300 or more!

    Jump between apps (like alt+tab) but using the trackpad only?

    Posted: 31 May 2021 08:05 AM PDT

    is there a way to just between apps (just like the alt + tab option) but by only using the trackpad on macbook air (m1) only? I could only find a option to jump between FULLSCREEN windows and not normal windows.

    New to Apple! Have issues downloading from the App Store

    Posted: 31 May 2021 04:17 AM PDT

    Finally decided to make the switch to Apple. I purchased a used MacBook Pro (Early 11) as I did not want to purchase a new one and not like it. High Sierra is what I have (as it will not upgrade). Everything I'm reading says it will not upgrade without the 3rd party "installer" which can come with issues. So this brings me to my issue. I cannot download any apps from the App Store. It will always say I need a higher OS to update. So my question is, am I just SOL when it comes to apps as they are no longer supported? I've seen some forums say Apple will revert to the most compatible version of things that were previously installed. But in this case I've never owned Apple products so nothing is in my prior purchase/downloads. I tried to download pages on my iPhone to test this and was still unable to download on my MacBook Pro.

    Again I'm new to Apple, but am somewhat technological. So if I'm missing something let me know!

    Thanks!!

    Macbook pro M1 Restarts On it's Own while plugged in.

    Posted: 31 May 2021 09:21 AM PDT

    These are the things I miss from Windows in my new MBA M1. Help me not miss them.

    Posted: 31 May 2021 02:40 AM PDT

    1. A huge thing i loved with windows was how I could drag a window to the side and it would tile the windows for me automatically. is there an app/workaround which can let me do that. I know I can go to windows>tile to left/right but it's not as easy as just dragging them.

    2. The absent 'delete' key. the delete on this works as backspace but what about 'delete'. can you do that on a mac?

    Thank you so much. I love this machine, especially the terminal. it's so awesome.
