    Random thought; I think Preview is the best built-in feature of MacOS. Do you love Preview?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 01:27 AM PDT

    I've been using Mac for a bit, but grew up on Windows and still use Windows for work. Preview is the best for quickly cropping, drawing on, or just viewing images, PDFs, and other files.

    How can I make safari prefer another language than my display language?

    I have set my machine to use English as Display language, but I would like safari search and web sites to prefer German.

    Is this possible?

    My Experience With Sidecar

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 05:10 AM PDT

    Hi guys, I'm new to Apple, and I got a MBA connected with a 2020 iPad Pro using sidecar.

    The thing is, lots of time either the connection dies brings me to the iPad lock screen, but the cursor is still able to go out of the MacBook screen as if there was a screen.

    Other times the second display (iPad's) just freezes, I can't see the cursor moving, tho I can still 'use it'.

    I always thought it was because I had a sucky internet connection, but it happens either on mobile data or strong wifi over 400Mbps, so I'd like to rule that out. In fact, after a couple of crashes, it seems to stabilize itself.

    What caught me by surprise is that I was at work today and my hotspot phone turned off, so I essentially had no internet access on either device. But I could still use sidecar, and with no stutters, it almost went better than ever.

    Can it be a bug perhaps? I'm up to date with updates (Monterey, IOS15). And can you actually use sidecar if you have no internet connection?

    Where did the "Stickies" Database Go In MacOS 12.4?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 08:26 AM PDT

    Got a new motherboard (*), so had to restore my M1 MacBook Pro from scratch. Tedious. Just about done now, but I can't figure out what happened to StickiesDatabase. Usually, that's a file that lives in ~/Library and can be overwritten with a previous version to restore saved Stickies (from another Mac) but while Stickies is working fine, there's no file of that name in ~/Library.

    Does anyone know what they changed and what the new approach is for copying a collection of Stickies notes from one Mac to another? Thanks!

    (\) If anyone's curious, my USB-C ports started failing and then my MagSafe plug failed too, so I couldn't charge my computer or use peripherals. After diagnosing it, Apple replaced both the motherboard and the power supply. Sure glad I have warranty coverage.*

    Want: Dock Icon creates new instance

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 10:27 AM PDT

    Is there a way to have it so that if you click on the dock icons, it creates a new instance/window of that application in your current space? Much like the pinned apps on a windows taskbar.

I have done this to free up space on my iCloud account. Can i proceed to delete all the photos on iCloud or should i wait till the Download originals get completed?

    Running containers on Apple CPUs?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 10:24 AM PDT

    I am considering buying an Apple Studio with a lot of RAM to run Kubernetes and also plain containers. This is for development and testing, not production.

    I know that container runtimes are evolving pretty quickly and I'm wondering if anyone has walked this path and can share advice.

    MacOS not showing time machine backups

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 10:20 AM PDT

    MacOS not showing time machine backups

    I backed up my MacOS Monterey with time machine, when I wanted to upgrade to Ventura.

    After a while, I decided to downgrade back to Monterey.

    When I did so and plugged my time machine disk, it shows that there is 445gb used but when I 'Enter Time Machine', there are no backups and the time machine folder is entirely empty.

    it shows 445gb used

    I tried to do 'Restore from Time Machine' when setting up Monterey and it couldn't find any backups on my ssd.

    How do I restore my backed-up files, which I know are there - because the SSD isn't empty.

    Please help I'm panicking

    This is the time machine folder

    Its empty even when I press enter time machine

    When is Apple going to fix this 🤬 iCloud sync ?!

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 08:53 AM PDT

    I've used onedrive, dropbox, google drive, and others Cloud drive like MegaSync without facing such slowness.
    Sometimes it even stuck, like right now: "Loading 5 elements, 3,1MB on 33MB..."
    I'm pretty sure if I reboot the Mac, it will resume. That usually does the trick.

    I have a descent upload speed (700mb/s) so it is not the problem.

    Do you have the same problem ? Or maybe it is not a problem but a feature ? 🤭

    Double clicking to zoom behaves different in safari

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 07:55 AM PDT

    Hello,

    Double clicking the title bar on safari only zooms it vertically, not across the screen. Safari is the only program so far that does this. Is this by design or is it a bug, or is it a setting I need to change?

    Thank you

    Installed AdGuard and have some questions

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 07:51 AM PDT

    I installed adguard Mac app and found out it made everything worse and the app was so big and complex. It also installed root certificates and other "stuff".

    I followed the uninstall procedure from adguard kb article, but just want to ask here if I should do anything else? I just want it all to be gone. I'm back at 1Blocker.

    How to run OfferUp app on Monterey

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 07:09 AM PDT

    All of my Googling is just running me in circles, so maybe y'all can help. I'm trying to sell things on OfferUp, but you can only edit/make posts from the app.

    So, I was looking for a workaround or a way to run the app from my computer, but BlueStacks isn't working, so I'm wondering if anyone knows how I can make it work!

    Thanks

    Hi all,

    I need to schedule some tasks and I would like to do that with the terminal only.
    The automator won't help with the tasks I need and also trying to run a script with it doesn't work for me.
    I did googled it and saw that launchad is needed for it but I didn't understand how to use it.
    Any help with this would be appreciated, Thanks.

    Sunrise and Sunset times off by two hours, date/time/region are correct

    Posted: 15 Jun 2022 04:14 AM PDT

    This one has been a hard one for me to search on my own due to most issues being with the date and time being incorrect. Currently, the date, time, and region are correct but the time my mac both sets the night shift and the dark theme seems to be off between 1 and 2 hours. Im really not sure how to fix this one as I can't find what time it thinks it should be turning those on. Has anyone run into this or have any ideas on how to fix it?
