    iPad Pro Magnetically Hanging on Wall (New 12.9" Photo)

    FYI, the new iPad Pro has so many strong magnets that you can hang it on a vertical metal surface. It feels like a moderately strong hold, too. I imagine this would also work on a fridge. I meant to try it on my fridge last night, but forgot, but it sticks to the heater in my office just fine...

    Macbook Air hanging for few seconds frequently

    For past few days, I am facing this issue. The screen tends to hang up for 5-7 seconds within a frequent interval of time. Then after restarting it, the issue settles down. But again it will start after view hours of use. Really don't know what is the issue. Please give a proper solution for it.

    I've found that with the last 3 or so betas for 10.13 and the final release that MP4 preview in Finder has been hanging consistently and requires a Force Quit / restart of Finder.
