    Anybody to explain how random wallpaper works on macOS

    I remember a couple years or less than 2 years ago, I was randomizing my wallpaper and the same wallpaper was always showing on each virtual desktop. However I recently tried to do the same thing but nothing, each time it is a different wallpaper from the folder in each desktop. I do not know...

    Looking for advice on OS updates

    Hello all, I currently have all my devices running a bit behind, mostly due to all the hoopla over Liquid Glass and performance issues regarding iOS/iPadOS and macOS 26 that popped up last year. Visual familiarity and performance is important to me with tech, and so I have held off this long...

    How do I make all icons for a specific file type to be generic?

    I am using macOS 26.4 and with Microsoft Excel. While using the Finder, I find that the icons with previews for the Excel files are too busy for my eyes. Is there way for all Excel files to use the generic Excel icon while still opening with Microsoft Excel? I would like to do this for other...

    I am about to get my first MacBook Air in a few days. I will be installing Microsoft's OneDrive as I have about 500 GB of information stored there and want it synced to my Mac.

    Even With a New UI Head, Liquid Glass is Here to Stay

    There seems to be this belief floating around that with the departure of Alan Dye, Liquid Glass is going to be abandoned or significantly stripped back with OS ‘27. But not so fast… From Gurman’s newsletter this morning: “Q: Do you think Apple’s design team shake-up will lead to user interface...

    macOS Tahoe Brings a Pleasant Design Refresh with Liquid Glass, and Great New Features

    macOS Tahoe brings many benefits in my opinion. The unified Liquid Glass design language between Apple’s platforms make picking up projects on the Mac far more pleasant. And it feels like it fits much better within Apple’s ecosystem of devices. It feels congruent and consistent with Apple’s...

    Hi all, On my Mac running macOS Tahoe 26.1, my local user avatar kept randomly reverting to the default gray silhouette on the login screen and in System Settings, even though I was using one of the built‑in “Suggestions” images (for example, the Red Rose or Dandelion from Flowers). Other...

    Resolved Wallet disabled after boot due to false security change (macOS 26).

    Has anybody else seen a persistent error of the Wallet disabled after boot due to a false security change (macOS 26) ? Switching to another user logged into iCloud, adding a credit card, and then aborting the process fixes the situation until the next boot. I have full security enabled...

    Maps not showing satellite and other views

    I've been having problems for weeks using Apple Maps on MBP, iPad and iPhone. It started off when I was unable to access satellite images for anywhere I was searching. Then I noticed that although Maps defaults to explore mode of my immediate vicinity, but if for example I want to look up...

    Servers and Bonjour computers in macOS 26 Sidebar

    All other macOS 26 Finder Sidebar complaints aside... I've run into an annoying issue. Is there anyway to keep a server/computer listed in the Locations column even when it's disconnected? I have three Synology NASs. Two of them have happily lived in the side bar for years whether they were...

    macOS 26: Remove Download option for iCloud does not show on right click

    macOS 26: Remove Download option for iCloud folders does not show on right Click, if more than 10 files are selected. The Remove Download option also does not show up if out of many files chosen, one or more files are already removed from downloads. Is it a bug?

    Does anyone else's finder window randomly resize itself?

    If this is a bug, it sure is an interesting one. I'm working in finder, finder window goes (what I thought was) blank. Took me a second to realize it just stretched itself out. Finder da loooong way.

    Liquid Glass for the visually impaired

    I ve posted in a few other threads but wanted to start a specific thread for those of us with vision issues. For me, the Liquid Glass is too blurry to see any text and the background bleed-through is TOO prominent. Reduce Transparency 'flattens out' the GUI but it then affects other components...

    Reasonable Feedback?

    Hi, I've just installed Tahoe on my Moms/Sisters MacBook Pro and mine a couple days ago. Turns out, I hate the new Apps thing, and my mother is borderline mad, or was, until I downgraded the Mac she uses to Sequoia. I have access to the Feedback app on my Mac and want to share feedback with...

    Does Safari feel more... "fragile," for lack of a better word, to anyone else?

    I'm trying to think of the best way to put it, but Safari (Version 26.0 (21622.1.22.11.14)) just seems more jittery, like it is constantly on the precipice of crashing. I've always used a lot of tabs, so even in the previous version, I would run into issues with Safari freezing (or crashing)...

    It looks like Final Cut Pro is not ready for macOS Tahoe 26.

    Updated to macOS Tahoe 26 yesterday. I was expecting to receive updates for Apple's in-house apps from the Mac App Store. Even though there's no update, based on my past experiences, I didn't think compatibility would be a serious issue. However, Final Cut Pro (version 11.1.1) is totally...
