    I have 2 computers, both on High Sierra. Previously, I was able to double click a file on a network share and it would open immediately. But with High Sierra, most files now have to be "verified" before viewing. This is especially problematic when they are large sized video files- and they...

    partitions in high sierra

    Hi! I am running macOS High Sierra on my mid 2014 Macbook Pro. When I first got it, I had planned on dual booting with Windows 7, but I opted not to after all. I partitioned my hard drive so I could do both. I had done it in some format where I couldn't put files over a certain size on it and...

    I've just tried out the Photos app (updated version in High Sierra) and imported a stack of photos from a USB drive. Most are fine, but about 10% have the wrong date in Photos, but the correct date shows if I check the actual file properties in Finder. In Photos, it gives me impossible years...

    My 2016 MacBook Pro runs *much* hotter with high Sierra, before updating it would be around 50 Celsius when connected to two ultrafine 4k displays, now it is constantly around 80 celsius when I'm doing simple tasks.

    APFS and Fusion Drives

    I have been a bleeding edge tester for a long time until I switched to Mac. I settled down a little, but when I am told "fusion drives don't support apfs" I take that as a challenge. Well..
