    Why has Apple still not fixed the Bluetooth issue in Monterey after months?

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 07:31 PM PST

    There have been hundreds of people complaining about Bluetooth issues.

    I have a MacBook Air 2020 and a Mac mini and both have issues connecting via Bluetooth.

    For example, I have to remove the headphones (Beats Studio 3) from the Bluetooth list entirely. Then I have to reset it only for it to connect. And every time the device goes into sleep mode, I have to repeat the same process.

    Did anyone of you find a solution?

    Here are some other people having the same issue:

    Intentionally have MacBook muted after opening the lid? Possible?

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 06:11 PM PST

    Might sounds weird to a lot of people to want this but for me suddenly noise sounds are super annoying. So if i'm on my macbook, playing a youtube video, music or whatever then something interrups me, I close the lid... do stuff work on my other computer and when I might come back 6 hours later and open my macbook I really hate if it resumes playing loud. I want to have it muted as a default after sleep.
    I need to stay focussed and concentrated while working, I really hate it when something interrupts me and I think I'm not the only one.
    Ring Tones on phones - only monsters having this! Even vibration is off because it is loud.

    How to migrate music library to a new Mac with fresh os?

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 09:04 PM PST

    I just bought a new 14-inch MBP to replace my 2015 15-inch MBP. I set it up as a brand new Mac so it was a clean OS. I successfully migrated all my data using Airdrop, including all the contents of my user/Music/iTunes folder.

    I also replaced the music library file with the one from my old machine, and made sure to load that library file by opening Music while holding option and selecting the correct library.

    I also made sure the file storage folder was correct in Music preferences.

    Even so, all the tracks in my library are greyed out and I cannot play them.

    Any ideas?

    What is a good external CD drive that is compatible with whatever is the best ultra-accurate CD ripping software for macOS?

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 05:26 PM PST

    Got a bunch of old CDs from friends bands that simply don't exist online, would love to make high quality 24-bit* lossless copies of them for our archives. Previously used an actual computer with Windows and EAC set up nicely, however, now I have merely a MBP that doesn't at least in appearance have anywhere a I could not insert a CD, at least not without considerable force. I'd love to accurately rip these friends CDs, who would like a high quality, logged, verified copy of their music, yet I am not sure of the best external drive to buy, or the software to use. UK suppliers appreciated.

    *Edit: I forgot that 24-bit only applies for vinyl, d'oh

    Apple Music app: Visualiser x86 still running even after the Mac OS 12.2 update..

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 06:45 PM PST

    Apple Music app: Visualiser x86 still running even after the Mac OS 12.2 update..

    In Mac OS 12.2, the music app got native support but still this x86 process runs....when I quit it while playing music/using the music app...nothing happens...the app works completely fine even after quitting this x86 process.

    Should I uninstall this process from the finder?

    Is there a straight-forward way to use Time Machine on the cloud?

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 08:57 PM PST

    Does anyone have any recommendations as to the cleanest way to use Time Machine with the back-up location being a cloud service? And further to this, can anyone recommend one cloud service for this purpose particularly?

    I mostly want to use version control, and would prefer a solution that allows me to use Time Machine just as I would with a physical external hard drive.

    I copied some personal videos on an HDD for transfer, now I can’t delete the aliases.

    Posted: 04 Feb 2022 12:24 AM PST

    HDD FS is APFS.

    After I finished the transfer, I tried to find it but couldn't. Then I used search, but I just got aliases, which I tried to delete. But no. There is an error, I can't see file path nor can I delete or fix the alias as it says original files not found.

    How do I get rid of them?

    Default shell for root in macos monterey?

    Posted: 04 Feb 2022 03:16 AM PST

    Sorry if the question looks a bit stupid, but I accidentally changed shell for root to bash (using `sudo chsh` instead of just `chsh`). Hope to set it back to default or there might be a lot of trouble.

    Thanks in advance!

    Macos 12.2 Window Server leaking

    Posted: 04 Feb 2022 02:51 AM PST

    I have a MacBook Pro 16 2021 with M1 Pro. I have a memory leak on macos 12.2. I think i can replicate the point where it leaks. My Mac is started and and i have a internet connection via wifi. Then i disable the wifi for a time X (i cannot say the exact time) and enable it again and it connect with the internet (on his own). By the point wehere the MacBook have a new internet connection. The windows server increased they memory and give it never back (from himself). This is not a one time thing. This happened every time, when i disable the wifi minimum for time x and enable it again and it have a internet connection again to the internet.

    Maybe this info helps somebody!

    Click What? It's an error in the copy/formatting in the intro for the latest macOS version. See the next image for what it's meant to look like. As a brand built on attention to detail, it's not like Apple to make these mistakes. Disappointment!

    Minimize all windows shortcut

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 09:57 PM PST

    I feel like I'm being gaslit not being able to find this anywhere online. Sliding your curser to the top right of the screen to minimize all the open windows. It's my favorite feature and I use it all the time. I just got a new MacBook and it's not doing that and I can't figure out what setting I must have to mess with to get it back. If anyone knows I would appreciate it so much!

    Tiger won't usb boot on my mbp 2010

    Posted: 04 Feb 2022 01:31 AM PST

    Hi,

    Here is my puzzle :

    I have a 2010 macbook pro and I want to install Tiger 10.4 on it.

    I decided to overwrite the hard drive so now it's empty and only boots in recovery mode.

    I created a usb-boot that it recognizes as a "boot disk" but it does not launch the installation when I tell it to launch from it it launches in recovery mode.

    I checked the diskutil list and everything looks good. I also opened wrinting permissions on the usb. And I also tried to install the version available online I think it's Yosemite but it won't (error).

    I tried to make an usb with iso and dmg nothing change. And the usb i made i tried apple partition and GUID but nothing works.

    So now i've a recovery mode computer and a puzzle to solve.

    Any suggestion? Any help is greatly appreciated

    Is there a way to see a log of changes after an upgrade?

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 05:49 PM PST

    I've upgraded to Monterrey 12.2 and would like to see if there was any kind of change in the applications installed, for example if the system removed some of them because they are incompatible, etc.

    Macos mojave not mounting periferals on wakeup

    Posted: 04 Feb 2022 12:49 AM PST

    I use a MBP 2014, running latest Macos Mojave patch, with an upgraded after market SSD (crucial p2).

    Ever since I did my SSD upgrade I've been having problems with periferals being recognised/mounted.

    It seems to be pretty inconsistent, but from what I've been able to narrow down, if I plug a USB device, or memory card into the computer while it's asleep, or just starting up from a shutdown, it won't recognise that I plugged anything in.

    If I then replug it it will be recognised, after a while, but not immediately (there's a delay).

    I'm not sure if this is caused by my SSD upgrade, or if something's happened with my Time Machine transfer to the new SSD, but if anyone has any ideas for a solution that would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Suggestions for an app or browser extension (free or non-free but not subscription based) that can block specific URLs

    Posted: 04 Feb 2022 12:09 AM PST

    as above. I've looked at 3 apps

    • blocksite chrome extension and focus are both subscription-base
    • cisdem appcrypt it seems it blocks whole websites. As an exameple, I blocked a clip from Finding Nemo but it also blocks a Luka Doncic hightlight (NBA)
    • radio silence and little snitch seems to block whole apps which is not what I want.

    Thanks for the suggestions

    How do I Center Text Vertically in Pages?

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 11:48 PM PST

    My cursor disappear when I change to any window

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 07:59 PM PST

    Don't know if somebody else have the same issue, but sometimes or I mean a lot of times, my cursor disappear when I change between programs or desktops, and to bring it back I need to change again to any other app, this happens with everything and also since the clean installation, I'm using a MacBook Air 13' 2017, with Monterey, just in case that's something important to know

    Worth upgrading to Big sur or Monterey from Catalinia 10.15.7?

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 09:41 PM PST

    Hi everyone, I've been using Catalina on my 2020 13 inch MBP and its been running really smoothly so far. Would it be worth it for me to upgrade my os to a newer version? I read that Monterey has some noticable memory leaking and Bluetooth problems that I'm kind of worried about getting, but I'm not sure how common they are. My batter life on Catalina is also pretty good, and I'm worried that upgrading to Big sur/monterey will make it worse. Any advice would be appreciated!

    Faster copy speed to NAS vs. networked PC

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 05:41 PM PST

    I've noticed that my fully functioning PC full of M2 SSDs, connected with gigabit ethernet to a gigabit switch, along with a 4 bay HDD NAS connected with gigabit to the same switch, my Macbook Air M1 2020 (using AX wifi) is always considerably faster (50-100% faster) copying to the NAS than the PC, even though the NAS is full of raid5 HDDs while the PC has much faster M.2 drives. The NAS can be copied to at full gigabit speed (1 gig gets copied every 10 seconds at ideal speed, when my laptop is right next to the wireless router) while my PC takes 15-16 seconds per gig. On the meshpoint, it's 20-30 seconds per gig to the NAS and 50-60 seconds per gig to the PC SSD. The PC has no performance issues with respect to the SSDs (they copy at 3500mb/s). The PC has fast access to the internet and NAS (full gigabit speeds), the max theoretical speeds - nothing wrong with its inherent ethernet performance.

    Router is Amplifi Alien.

    MacBook slow after Big Sur 11.31

    Posted: 03 Feb 2022 01:15 PM PST

    Hi there, I'm sorry in advance because I don't know a ton about computers.

    I updated my MacBook Pro Retina 2014 two days ago to Big Sur 11.61. It made me delete so much stuff to do so, and now I have 56.95 GB available. The day after I updated it it said I need another update, now to Big Sur 11.63.

    After the first update my Mac had so many new issues - slow, lagging, and the fan being super loud. It was perfectly fine before this (just got a new battery this year).

    Should I do this new update? Is there something I should do differently this time?

    Thanks in advance
