| Onyx Developer needs some help Posted: 10 Feb 2022 12:18 PM PST If you've ever used the Mac utility Onyx the developer could use your help. This is being shared from another forum: We talk often about the great system utility Onyx. Today when I went to the site I saw this plea... The development of my applications is not discontinued. I urge you to help him/her out, as I did. This tool has been around since the earliest days of OSX. It would be a shame to see it go away. If you've never donated to them before (or it's been a long time), and you use their utility, I'd say you owe it to them. https://www.titanium-software.fr/en/onyx.html They also provide the cool utility called Deeper, that lets you tweak hidden system settings.

| Is there a picture-in-picture mode for Facetime on MacOS like there is on iOS and iPadOS? Posted: 11 Feb 2022 12:12 AM PST I really like Zoom's feature of minimizing the call to a small rectangle so that I can see the speaker and move the little window around on my Macbook screen. I noticed that Apple adopted this feature too on iPadOS and iOS with Facetime. I am wondering if there is something similar for macOS that I may be missing out on. I have tried the "Always On Top" feature but sometimes the window can be too big that it blocks out too much of my screen. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] | ||
| Please help my MacBook is fucked Posted: 10 Feb 2022 11:47 PM PST So I Decided to install monetary on my MacBook and I got passed like the first few parts of it the issue that came up is when it came into installing the thing the installer is saying that any error has happen so I try to use safe mode but I can't enter safe mode because the buttons to get into it don't work and now I'm stuck in a loop of shutting down or restarting trying to get into safe mode or logging into the account to see if the installer would actually work [link] [comments] | ||

| Pop up asking for "Local Items" keychain Posted: 10 Feb 2022 10:17 PM PST Just updated to 12.2.1 and when logging in after the reboot I got prompting by Adobe_CCXProcess asking to use the "Local Items" keychain (I do have CC installed). Did some quick googling and apparently this happens after macOS updates all the time?? I just wondering if anyone could explain the reason for the pop-up and was it okay that I gave my password to it? [link] [comments] | ||

| Is there any data on which browser has the best performance for macOS? Posted: 10 Feb 2022 04:22 AM PST I know there are a number of topics open with browser questions and which browser to use. I have all the more visible browsers installed - i.e. Edge, Chrome, Vivaldi, Opera, Brave, Firefox - and I am currently using Firefox. - Vivaldi and Opera are good, but that lck of Airdrop function is bad for me; also, Vivaldi still didn't develop an iOS app; - Opera wants to push users to use its internal system for sharing links, notes, etc. I also have Orion browser installed bot on Mac and iPhone but it is still in dev state. Of all I have read so far, opinions differ on which browser reflects best on the battery. Safari, yes, it is light, but if I start working something heavier, I find it at the moment is not the best choice. Better is on iOS. I read articles on browsers and see recommendations but didn't find data on performance on macOS. [link] [comments] | ||

| Sound Output and Microphone access issues, Monterey 12.1, M1 Pro 14in Posted: 10 Feb 2022 07:46 PM PST Hi all, first time Mac user, picked up this machine last month. I've been having audio issues non-stop during my regular use, I usually plug in some headphones through 3.5mm jack and use a USB microphone for calls (plugged in through a dock).
Is this a "feature"? Is there any way to turn this off, Windows allows this option. I have to turn up the volume to hear other apps and this makes the caller volume really loud and I have to change the volume manually each time.
Before I initiate a call, the microphone in use indicator is off. Initiating the call, the indicator turns on (as expected) but in app my external microphone is "unavailable" In addition to this, I have quit some other messengers that seemingly don't have any calls ongoing but they remind me "quitting the app will end the call" but nothing is going on! Is there a way to tell which apps specifically are using the microphone? I've installed Oversight but this does not help too much.
I've found this other thread on the topic, but in my case unplugging and plugging back in the headphones into the jack does not resolve the problem. I have to restart the machine to get any sound output through the headphones. This renders sleep completely unusable. I work with my mac at a workstation so my peripherals are usually plugged into the computer. Having to restart every time I sleep the computer just to get headphone sound is inexcusable. Mac OS wizards, I call to you for help! [link] [comments] | ||
| Restore Data from 2015 MBP to M1 MBP Posted: 10 Feb 2022 07:19 PM PST I have a 2015 MacbookPro running El Capitan and was planning to migrate to the new 16 inch M1 MacbookPro. 1) Will I be able to restore all my files from my current Time Machine backup onto the new MBP without needing to change the operating system on the new MBP? I just want the files. Apps and app data isn't important. 2) Would it be better to just copy the "User" folder from my current MBP onto a hard drive and then transfer all the relevant files/folders onto the new MBP? Just wondering if there are going to be compatibility issues while transferring data since I plan on formatting my current MBP. [link] [comments] | ||
| Why does Safari squish the aspect ratio when watching some fullscreen stuff? Posted: 10 Feb 2022 06:53 PM PST Safari will try and make the black bars shorter and end up squishing it and making it look off. Tested in chrome and it was fine. Tested in Edge and it also had this same issue. [link] [comments] | ||
| MBA M1 memory mostly under pressure with normal load Posted: 10 Feb 2022 12:51 PM PST I've got 2020 MBA 8GB variant. I'm a developer and build web apps on node. The issue I'm facing that my laptop memory is always under pressure. I've around 45-50 tabs open on my browser. I'm running VSCode and a node instance. Activity Monitor: Screenshot-2022-02-11-at-12-01-16-AM.png (639×535) (ibb.co) That's the only major load on the system, as you can see in the screenshot the memory pressure is mostly red. I've seen another M1 MBP with 8 GB ram which is running heavier softwares but memory pressure is rarely red. I'm concerned that something is wrong with my system. Any help would be appreciated.

| Posted: 10 Feb 2022 08:50 AM PST I'm looking for guidance on best practices for using TM to back up multiple Macs. 2 x M1 MBA (2020) (one Monterey, one Big Sur) All three machines are 512/8 models, nothing special and not especially full, since I'm pretty anal about keeping space use to a minimum. I have a plethora of USB drives I can devote to this exercise. My thought was to take an old 1.5TB drive and partition it three ways, one for each machine, hang it on the Mini, and point the MBAs to it for network use. The Mini is on 24x7. The 1.5TB drive is a USB2 unit, and is proving sufficient just for the Mini, giving me backups for many months. I understand I'll have to wipe the drive and redo the backup on the Mini, but this doesn't bother me. Questions:
Thanks for your thoughts! [link] [comments] | ||

| is it safe to force quit disk utility while formatting an ssd? Posted: 10 Feb 2022 03:19 PM PST So i was trying to format this 4TB ssd into a MS DOS (FAT) format without knowing what it was. After trying a few times and getting an error i decided to lower the speed in the security settings (i seriously dont know why. ig i panicked). So now, after i googled what an MS DOS format is and realizing i made a mistake, i dont want to wait like 10 hours only to get an error. It has been loading for three hours now and it's at like 15%. Is it safe for me to force quit or should i just wait? i really dont want to ruin my ssd [link] [comments] | ||
| 1 Apple ID shared by two user accounts Posted: 10 Feb 2022 11:18 AM PST Hi there, I had a question that I can't seem to find the answer to... I have a MacBook and wanted to have 1 personal account and 1 other for work purposes. On this work account I wanted to link it to my Apple ID so I could use Messages. However, I don't want my Mac to have two full copies of my Messages (and other iCloud data) fully downloaded wasting space for both user accounts, as my hard drive is only 250GB. I know you can toggle certain iCloud features but I would like Messages enabled for sure. If you have an iCloud account shared by two users accounts on a Mac, does it download all imessages and photos twice? Or is it 'smart' enough to download everything once and have that data accessible by both user accounts? [link] [comments] | ||
| 2018 iMac Upgrade to Monterey Failure... Posted: 10 Feb 2022 11:13 AM PST SO was trying to upgrade is 2018 iMac to Monterey from Catalina. Update failed - It boots up with a file icon with a question mark on it. Doesn't seem to recognize hard drive. In Recovery Mode, It shows up on Disk Utility as APFS Physical Storage but won't boot to it and running First Aid returns an error. When trying to use Recovery Mode to restore macOS, it doesn't see the drive (but it does see my attached Time Machine backup drive) Have a backup but it's old, so I haven't tried reformatting yet. Any suggestions before I do? Thanks. [link] [comments] | ||
