    Hardware Diagnostic Test

    Does anyone know if the hardware diagnostic test has changed in MacOS Big Sur? When I restart my machine and hold the "D" key, it appears to send it into recovery mode.

    Big Sur Safari - Massive Forehead

    Admittedly only an issue on smaller screens but the massive vertical space taken by the Safari Toolbar on Big Sur is a waste of precious screen space. Together with the favourites bar, plus any tabs, I am loosing over an inch of vertical space out of the 8" or so of viewing height: Anyone...

    MacBook pro speakers crackle with Google Meet on Safari Big Sur

    Hi, I've got a Macbook Pro 2019 16'' and I use Google Meet with Safari on a daily basis. With Big Sur 11.0.1 (the final release distributed to users), only on Google Meet and only on Safari speakers intermittently crackle, but if I use Google Meet on Google Chrome I don't get any problem.

    I Will Be Choosing a M1 MacBook Pro

    My original plan was to wait until 2023 before I upgrade from my early 2015 MBP 13 inch. The fact is, I just can't wait that long for the type of Mac I wanted. Is it is a need or want? More of a want, since the current Mac I have works just fine. There is some excitement for this new...

    Startup disk randomly disappears and reappears since installing Big Sur

    I installed Big Sur when the public beta came out, no funny business, all official, and the installation went without a hitch (MacBook Pro, 2017) However, often when waking from sleep I will get the flashing ? folder showing the startup disk is "missing". It's not every time, may 25%. To get it...

    I'm worried because I think these logs are very suspicious. I've searched around the internet about the log and the contents, and I've found nothing. Can you guys help? I'm scared I'm being hacked! BTW, I found this is /private/var/logs Tue Oct 20 16:44:39 2020 [61] <err> (0x70000a78b000)...

    USB Audio Issues with Zoom and Logitech Brio

    I am hooked via a PCIe USB 3 card and some USB 3 hubs to a Logitech Brion and also some Altec Lansing speakers. Worked great on all previous systems but the late Betas of Big Sur have created a big stutter - useless. Has anybody seen this? Any idea for fixes? The Bio needs USB 3 for its full HD...

    App Store Apps are corrupted, copied apps to not authorize

    I had not used my install for a few days (I mainly run Catalina.) Suddenly some of my apps updates show up as corrupted. When I download again I see the same story. When I copy them from my Catalina Applications, it asks for App Store authentication over and over. Any ideas?

    Big Sur Volumes on Catalina

    I am scratching my head about Apple's sloppy approach of the Big Sur volume appearance on Catalina. It would not have taken much to make the system appear seamless for multi boot. But it also appears to be inconsistent. I installed by adding a Big Sur volume to a container already containing one...
