    Which version of macOS is recommended for a Late 2013 27" iMac?

    Hi all. I've been on macOS Sierra for awhile but I've been wondering if I should update. I've heard bad things about High Sierra, such as it being unstable, buggy and "Apple's Vista," on the other hand I've heard that Mojave doesn't work that well with my Graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce GT 755M...

    Help with domain-connected Mac

    Can anyone help with Macs in a classroom connected to network/server/domain? They have built up a lot of system storage and slow, likely due to lots of user profiles being stored over years. Can I delete older user profiles in Directory Utility?

    Can't boot into Single User Mode

    Hi, I would like to buy a new 27" 5K display to be connected via two TB2 cables to the nMP (D500). I read here and there, but it seems that there are not so many compatible devices. Apart from the quality of the panel, for me it would be very important to have a perfect integration with the...

    Should I convert my external HDDs to APFS?

    I'm not worried about compatibility with Windows or older macOS. What I'm worried about is the fact that APFS is optimized for SSDs. So will APFS potentially make my HDDs unreliable or slower? What's your experience with APFS with traditional HDDs? Thanks!
