    Image capture time wrong when importing from iPhone?

    Hello, I have an iPhone 14 pro max running iOS 16 connected to a 2021 16" MacBook Pro. When I plug my phone in to import the pictures I've noticed that the times are all off by one hour for every photo. Is there any way to fix this? Both devices have the same current time, both are set to...

    Image Capture : photos being prepared but then nothing appears

    Seen numerous postings on this subject, and tried all the proposed solutions (updated OSX iOS, reset privacy settings, reboots, stopping Dropbox/OneDrive, ...) still nothing appears. This used to work smoothly, and only since a year or so it fails. Have tried commercial software in demo...

If you're working in office or perhaps at your home office, aside from the built-in webcams on the M1 Laptops, which web camera or video conferencing devices are you using? Which one would you recommend? I'm looking for some 4K alternatives, but Logitech seems to...

    Image Capture Showing Only 6 Photos on iPad

    I was able to export over 4,000 photos and videos from my iPad (iCloud) to an external hard drive using Image Capture on macOS Monterey. When I connect my wife’s iPad, which has over 2,000 files in iCloud, it shows only 6 photos in Image Capture. I’ve tried soft and hard device resets, and “keep...

    Image Problems in High Sierra

    I know I'm not alone with this frustration about Disk Utility imaging in High Sierra. With Apple trying to move away from Disk Utility as a supported way of disk imaging, many admins are left in limbo. For years I have been able to use disk utility (via Target disk or recovery mode) to take and...

    Image Capture

    Just tried using Image Capture to get pics off my iPhone to my iMac. It no longer recognizes my iPhone. Since it has always worked before, I'm assuming I'm dealing with another "Improvement" from the last IOS update? I don't like DropBox or the other Mac program that replaced iPhoto. That's...
