    Importing AVCHD Files on Big Sur

    Hi all! So I just updated to Big Sur but I'm having some trouble importing AVCHD video files from a Sony Camera through Quicktime Player. On Catalina, importing AVCHD files was relatively straightforward with imports of hour long video clips only taking about a half hour at most. After updating...

    I just started my M1 Mini from a SuperDuper! backup on an external USB3 SSD

    Mac Min1c M1, MacOS 11.4, SuperDuper! 3.5-beta.3 (Shirt Pocket 1 Shirt Pocket 2) I've always preferred SuperDuper! to CCC, so was excited to find that they finally have a backup for Big Sur M1 Macs that lets you boot of an external drive. IOW, a complete backup. After 11.4 came out, I downloaded...

    iPod Manually manage music on iPod Classic with Big Sur

    I've upgraded my Mac and now have a new M1 running Big Sur, and now I've realised that iTunes has been removed. I also have an old iPod Classic. On my old Mac I would manually manage the music, I'd copy something into iTunes, move it to the iPod and then the iTunes version might well get...

    Weather Widget Always Wrong Location

    My weather widget chronically shows the wrong location: I lived in Fresno over three years ago and oddly enough, I didn't even own an apple device while living there. Clicking on the widget only takes you to the weather.com app, as you all know. Going here to Significant Locations shows...

    Lost Notes After Update to Big Sur

    Hello everyone, I am in dire need of help. More specifically, I recently updated my MBP from Yosemite to Big Sur, and for whatever reason, it deleted all of my saved notes from the Notes app. I did find a folder that said "Notes backup", and I believe this may be the backup copy that maybe they...

    File open/save box no longer includes date modified

    I'm still getting used to Mac Big Sur after the jump from High Sierra. I cannot figure out why the Save As . . . , Open, etc interfaces don't/won't show the "Date Modified" column (Only Name, Size, Kind, Date Added). I NEVER care about "Date Added", but I do often want to check the name of or...

    MacMail Hung when Opening Preferences

    My MacMail on Big Sur gets hung and often crashes whenever I try to open the Preferences folder. I've gone through a lot of troubleshooting - removing Preference files with the library, reset SMC & NVRAM, deleted the index files, rebuilt each inbox, removed each account and added individually...

    Success: $99 multifunction laser printer that scans on Big Sur

    So my various multifunction laser printers (MFPs) have worked printing-wise out of the box with macOS Big Sur on my Apple silicon M1 machine, but the built-in scanners have not. I have been looking at solutions like updated Mac specific drivers (that don't exist) or the possibility of using...

    “MsgDisplay” will damage your computer. You should move it to the Trash.

    I will leave a screenshot with the message I'm getting as a pop up when I start my computer. Also I will leave a follow up screenshot with the message I get when I click Move to trash. My OS is Big sur OS version 11.3.1

    Add custom ringtones TO MacOS

    I want to add custom ringtones to macOS Big Sur, not my iPhone or iPad, which already have these tones. Basically I have my MacBook Air 2020 (M1) set up so when I received phone calls the Mac rings using WiFi calling. The problem is that it uses "Opening" for all my contacts that have custom...

    Apple Thunderbolt Display not stayed connected, hardware and/or Big Sur issue?

    Am trying to see if anyone has issues with connecting Thunderbolt 3/USB-C based Mac notebooks to their Thunderbolt Displays. I used to have a Thunderbolt 2-based MacBook Pro (Mid-2015 I think, last version on it was Mojave), and I was able to use it with my display with no issues. I've since...

    Thinking about downgrading to original Big Sur OS because new update is causing problems....

    I have had some random problems with Big Sur since 11.3 (ex. photo screensaver doesn't work anymore, much slower & the 'beach ball' is showing up all the time, etc.) I assume anything that I have added to my Mac since then will be gone? I have a Time Machine backup but wasn't sure if I could...

    External Hard Disk Corrupted After updating to Big Sur 11.3 on M1

    I have already scheduled a Genius Bar appointment for this coming Thursday. I wanted to post this to see if there is any hope, but I think its looking grim for my 4 TB G-Drive. This week I updated my M1 13 inch MacBook Pro to Big Sur 11.3. Personally, I am not one to get the latest updates and...

    Big Sur and Office for Mac 2011

    Is there a way to run Office for Mac 2011 Home edition using Big Sur on my new iMac with an Intel chip? Any patch programs that will let me run it? Sadly, I was told by AppleCare that Office 2011 won't run on Big Sur. I have my 2011 CD with 3 licenses and hate the idea of the new Microsoft...

    PSA: Sideloading iOS apps blocked on 11.3 (but still working on 11.2.3)

    Thanks to my buddy @leons who’s updated to 11.3, I’ve just been notified of this. I myself have stayed on 11.2.3 and all aspects of sideloading still work as always. Installing apps by the traditional sideloading methods on 11.3, and running sideloaded apps you have already installed, has been...

    Hi guys, I own 27'' 2020 iMac i5 6-core 3.1 GHz, 8GB RAM (bought Nov 2020). In general I do not have any major issues while using it (work, zoom meetings, some coding in Xcode), but there are two things that are bugging me. 1. iMac freezes from time to time (sometimes it unfreezes). In time...
