    Safari Favorites Icons go generic after clean install

    Safari 14.1, iMac 19,1, finished a clean install, no migration. Safari favorites icons are going generic on my Start Page. Is there anything that can be done to prevent this from happening?

    Going to purchase my first iMac, but so CONFUSED.

    Hello everyone, hope you're doing great and as the title suggests I'm going to purchase my first ever iMac. The thing I'm most concerned about and having doubts about is to go with 7core GPU or 8core GPU according to my use case. First things first, I really wanna future-proof my device. I'm...

    Twin iMacs as Target Displays Crashing an iMac Driver

    Hi All, A bit of help, please. I have a fairly good iMac pushing two target displays (two 2012 iMacs). When the displays are connected (USB-C to thunderbolt) they work fine -- so long as I am typing or working with the computer. However, some time after I leave the computer, the driving...

    Defending the new iMac design

    Don't get me wrong, this design isn't perfect. There is certainly room for improvement, like everything else on this planet. Actually, it has a lot of room for improvement. But is it really 'hideous', 'disappointing' or 'a step backwards'? Imo, people are critizing it way too quickly. The...

    Need External Boot Drive Help

    I have a Late 2014 27" (3.5 i5). The fusion drive is having issues. I use this machine in my law office, and it's mission critical for my workflow. I don't want to buy a new intel iMac, and I'm far from being comfortable with buying a M1 iMac or Mac Mini. So, I need to squeeze 2-3 more years out...

    2021 iMac design - chin is also glass 🤯

    The entire front of the 2021 iMac is all glass. When watching Apple's 2021 iMac commercial you can see crystal clear reflections on the chin. It appear's that the chin isn't aluminum but rather glass, indicating that the entire front of this new iMac is all glass. I assume the glass is...

    New iMac

    Should someone be worried if they have a current iMac with 32GB of ram and the new iMac can only have 16GB of ram? I do a lot of video editing and graphic design. I realize the new M1 chips are a lot different than intel chips so maybe that's why less ram would be okay. Any thoughts on this...
