Ive owned Macs for many years now, I previously worked for Apple; not once have I had a poor experience that wasn't either rectified or explained as to why and what happened. However I have an issue that I hope someone can help with. I bought all new Apple Products this year (iPad Pro...

16' Macbook Pro is stuck in UPS Zhengzhou, China since Nov 5! Is anybody else having issues?

Hello, I have a 2013 macbook pro 15" retina (running Catalina) with an internal SSD which last year failed in some way/messed up, after it froze, I powered it off and then upon restarting couldnt boot onto/select the Mac OS drive. Its worth noting the hard drive was partitioned so it had...

Hi all, My Macbook isn't showing thumbnails, either jpeg or png - there are a couple of files on my mac which have a preview but most do not. Even downloaded files there is no preview. I have tried deleting the com.apple.plist file etc, updating the individual image in preview to try and...

HI I have a MacBook Pro that is mine but as I used it for work and worked in a large corporation with strict GDPR rules, the MacBook had to be set up by the IT team and as such has MDM profiles on it. I have left this corporation now and despite many requests, the likelihood of them removing...

Curious if anyone knows whether or not the Apple Stores are on a set restocking schedule for the new MacBook Pro's. I have one I ordered on day 1 (late in the day unfortunately) that is slated for delivery at the end of the month, however I now want to increase the storage option I originally...

I have a MacBook Pro 16inch 2019 With macOS Monterey. for the past few weeks every time I try to watch anything on my MacBook besides Apple TV and YouTube it freezes when I click on the website. For example I load up Hulu click on my show everything is working fine but when I click to play the...

Can you extend PS or LR application across to the iPad so palettes and tools are on the iPad? Can the 11" iPP (or iPad Air) work well in portrait for this, or is the 13" iPP a better combination in either landscape or portrait? Even if you have a larger MBP, what are your experiences using an...

Hi everyone, I am planning to buy a MacBook and am not quite sure which model to choose. I intend to use the laptop mainly for programming in programs such as: Xcode, Android Studio, Unity Apple MacBook Air 13,3" M1 2020 Apple MacBook PRO 13,3" M1 2020 Official comparison...

Here is a little showcase of the many differences and perhaps even more similarities between the very first Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro 15" from January 2006 and the brand new M1 Max MacBook Pro 16". Given the many parallels in design between this new machine and the PowerBook Line and First...

I’m tired of YouTubers saying oh “well if you’re doing VFX work, the MAX is for you…” but clearly have not themselves. Because unless you’re anyone who does real 3D or motion work often needs way more powerful & reliable, especially if you’re doing for a big studio. They have no idea what they...

Hello, I own a 2015 MacBook Pro 15 and intend to purchase a new Mac (or two). I'm an entrepreneur with a focus on technology and investing. I do a lot of web, mobile, and desktop programming, as well as a lot of investing. When I'm not programming or at a meeting, I'm mostly looking at graphs...

A man buying an M1 Mac asked “Which Apple to get for my lap? Is the Max not for pros? Are the Pros not the max? Boy, this naming scheme’s wack!” The salesman said back, “Just relax; Apple packed a whole lot in these Macs – headphone jacks are high-load, with mics better than Røde, and they have...

Hello, New to the forum any help would be appreciated. I just received my MacBook Pro M1 Max 14' today. I got the 1tb option but now I'm starting to feel like I should have gotten the 2tb option and would appreciate any perspectives. For context I will primarily be using this for two things...

I've seen a lot of posts comparing the size of the new 16.2" MacBook Pro to the old 17" Powerbook G4 1.67 Ghz. Here are a few photos for context to show you the size difference. Also, check out the sheer quantity of ports on that 17". I'm counts DVI, S-Video, Ethernet, Firewire 800, Firewire...

I have an Early 2015 Retina MBP 13" without the T2 Chip, thinking of updating to Monterey. I know the update on MBPs with T2 chips have been a mess, but curious what the experience has been like on even older Macs that don't have the chip. And even if it didn't brick, I'd love to know if it...

Let me just begin with the fact that this isn’t really a defect, but rather a limitation of the way these screens are designed so essentially all of these new macbooks will have it. The same ’issue’ can be seen on 12.9 iPad screens. Im curious: Have you noticed the slight dimming around the...

I currently still have a 2014 (!) rMBP (15.4”) and have help off for years thanks to the crazy keyboard situation, then the tease of Apple custom chips, then M1 which was exciting but honestly stopped due to the same terrible webcam, among other little things. With the new M1 Pros, I’m finally...

Hey, does anyone have an issue where a touch on the trackpad doesn't register the gesture, sometimes you might have to touch the second time to make it work, its not an all time issue but its noticeably present. Give me a heads up if anyone facing this issue. Working on a 16 inch MacBook Pro...

With the new MBPs, this question is super-popular on these forums, and I see multiple posts spreading misinformation and FUD about 16Gb models, causing a bunch of people to most likely overspend of panic about their purchases. There is a lot of misunderstanding how RAM and swap files work and...
