    iMac 21.5" Mid 2011 - incompetent shop update to macOS 10.13 High Sierra

    I'll relate this as a cautionary tale for anyone who finds it helpful. A friend of mine took to the local branch of GRAVIS in Düsseldorf her iMac 21.5" Mid 2011 to have macOS updated. The most recent backup she had was to an external Time Machine disk from about 2015 (yes, I know). She asked...

    I want to switch to Firefox, but I can't.

    (This is a problem I have on PC and Mac but it's the same on both so it doesn't really matter.) I hate Chrome. Sure, it's a nice browser, but the only thing keeping me on Chrome was Tab Groups and Extensions. I just found out that Firefox has all of my extensions. So I switched to FF! But I...

    Safari 16.4—Buggier than usual?

    I wonder if it is just me or, as of late, Safari 16.4 is quite buggy. I have encountered tab freeze up, website can scroll but can't click on anything.

    All iPads Firefox for iOS on iPad tab problem

    Whenever i use Firefox on my iPad, if I switch to another app and then back to Firefox, Firefox will automatically open up a new tab. I’d like it to stop, and just go to what I set it as in Preferences, or to what I’ve left open when I switched away from it. I’ve looked in Preferences and cannot...

    Universal Firefox Sync Issues

    Having pretty much given up trying to get Safari tabs to sync properly, I thought I'd give FF a shot. I assumed that hitting sync on any of my devices would actually update all of them. What seems to be happening is I hit sync on a particular device, and it will "push" the updated info from...

    Survey: What's your main browser on macOS Big Sur?

    Fell free to comment your reasons, and how flexible you are at switching. Does ad blockers such as the uBlock Origin and paid free extensions in Safari such as the Dark Reader play a role here?
