    Apps Refresh Media Library?

    I have a shared media library on my Synology NAS, which generally works fine. However, if I try to watch (for example) an episode of a ripped TV series on my Apple TV when the NAS is in standby, the Apple TV can throw an “Unable to Find Media” error before the NAS has time to spin-up. The...

    Adding L2 Cache to 7400/7410 CPUs

    Has anyone ever tried adding L2 cache to an early G4 7400 or 7410 CPU? According to their datasheets, they support up to 2MB of cache. As far as I can tell, Apple and all third party upgrade manufacturers never used more than 1MB on one. I found some cache modules that have the exact same pinout...

    Problems loading images on some websites on Safari

    Hi, I may have a possible cache issue. I have problems loading images on some websites on Safari. Here is a screenshot: https://prnt.sc/pXJECyWVL-M4 As you will see, many of the images have failed to load. In the past, if I had an issue like this, clearing the cache would resolve it. However...

    Uninstall all parts of an application

    All, I am having issues with Cisco Webex. When chat messages come through, the app crashes, and I have to reopen it. Thus far, I have made sure I have the latest updates to Cisco WebEx, and now I have even upgraded to Ventura. Honestly, I did not want to! Anyway, I believe to uninstall an...

    When does the Icon Cache clear itself?

    After updating to Ventura, I had some icons associated with a video player become generic white icons in the Dock, file picker window etc.(although not in Finder?). It's not really a huge deal and I'm aware that you can run some commands to clear it, but it made me curious: When does macOS...

    OS SSL Cert Cacheing

    I am having an issue with SSL cert cacheing on a certain subdomain that I use for development. The browser is looking for the expired root LetsEncrypt certificate, DST Root CA X3, which expired in Sept 2021. My browser caches are clear, and this certificate does not exist in my Keychain. The...

    Will I need an external scratch disk?

    I am doing photo and video editing as well as some 3d (Blender) and will be updating from a 2010 Mac Pro. In the Mac Pro I use a dedicated 1TB SATA SSD as a scratch disk for caches and such. I was taught that it's always best to keep a scratch disk that is physically separate from the system...

    NFS or SMB with configurable cache

    I'm considering instead of Dropbox or iCloud, pay for my own hosted server with 10TB of storage and put either an NFS or an SMB server on it (or both) and just use that as my cloud storage. The hosting site will do backups. As a third level thing, I could also push it off up to Dropbox. The...

    Fabric? 3 Unlabeled Boxes?

    We've all seen this diagram: But I haven't seen an explanation of what the "Fabric" is. It's the largest single chunk of real estate on the chip (unless you combine the DRAMs). It appears to be a gateway between the DRAM and all other components, but if that's all it is, why is it so big? For...

    Safari Documents & Data

    How can I delete this cache? I turned off my iCloud sync but it doesn't stop accumulating any cache? I also saw that I had some data in Apple Books, deleted the app, installed it and they came back again, and it had to be removed. I do not want to make factory settings on my iPhone, is there...

    iPhone 11 Pro “Other” cache eating storage space

    I had the 256gb model XS Max but looked at my storage for the last month before ordered and was at about 32 used. So I opted for the 64gb to pinch some pennies. I was already on iOS 13/13.1 so I figured I was safe. Every since the 11 Pro however I have been getting iPhone storage full...

    AppleTV Cache settings or downloading media?

    Is it possible to adjust cache settings, or to download purchased iTunes content to the AppleTV? I'd love if my kids were not consuming bandwidth to rewatch Trolls/Tangled/Moana over and over and over. I bought the 64GB AppleTV 4K. I'd use Infuse or Plex but they can't authenticate the...

    Changing Calendar color/texture

    Lately I've been going on a rampage customizing every icon/toolbar/dock I can get my greedy mitts on in High Sierra but I've finally hit a snag with the Calendar. I don't know if theres a particular cache file controlling it or if I'm flat out just editing the wrong things but I CANNOT change...

    Why doesn’t iOS let you clear app cache?

    I’m aware some apps let you do this in their respective settings, but for at least 5 years this has been my most wanted iOS feature. Why on earth does apple not mind apps like Facebook ballooning to 1gb and not allowing a system level app cache management tool? I’m aware in theory it is...

I'm wanting to find which server version is the minimum so I can find its minimum hardware requirements (which is...
