    Hi-res / Ultrawide monitor app mgt

    Just a technical inquiry about Mojave. I'm considering a new- or refurbished-hardware-purchase in the coming months. Could be a 27-inch iMac i7 or a MacBook Pro 13-inch 17 w/ eGPU. Either setup would include an external monitor. I am concerned about window management when using multiple programs...

    Loopback open multiple interfaces?

    Excuse my ignorance but I’m trying to weed out a multimedia issue I’m having with my Mac Pro and IPhone 7+. Is it normal that loopback is open and active on 4-6 ports at any given time? Even if I turn off WiFi and I open a terminal window and use lsof -i I can see processes open and an...

    cMP {Classic Mac Pro} {3,1} upgrade to High Sierra & Radeon Graphics

    My wife's cMP 3,1 with updated WiFi/BLE has been running 10.13.5 on a Fusion drive with HFS+. It has 16GB of RAM and an Apple Radeon 4870.

    cMP 5,1 with PC GPU - Upgrade to 10.13?

    Hi All, Perhaps I can borrow your collective genius. Last year I took the plunge and bought a Mac Pro 5,1 and separately purchased a non-flashed (PC version) GTX 1080. After some jiggery-pokery I got everything running just fine on Sierra 10.12.6. All has worked basically pretty well since...

    2017 Touch ID sudo -- window not in front

    I followed the instructions at http://osxdaily.com/2017/11/22/use-touch-id-sudo-mac/ to use Touch ID to authenticate sudo from the command line. Alas, it is a clumsy implementation. Instead of the Terminal window permitting use of Touch ID being the front window (with a pink fingerprint), it is...
