    Mac Mini and AirDrop

    I have had my beloved M1 Mac Mini since the spring of 2022. Rugged, dependable workhorse. I recently updated to MacOS Sonoma 14.1 from MacOS Ventura 13. Unfortunately, there was an immediate side-effect: AirDrop started acting up. This happened before, but not recently. Here's how it goes...

Even if you unplug it just to move it somewhere else in the house and plug it back in, it would restart. I decided the only way to get things moving again for them was to by a temporary...

    Buying a used Intel MacBook Pro 13-inch

    My elderly parents own a late-2013-vintage 13-inch MacBook Pro running MacOS Mojave. A few months ago, the battery failed in this laptop, meaning it must be plugged-in at all times. The instant it is disconnected, it behaves like a desktop Mac suffering from a power failure; it reboots the next...

    How can I enable FileVault in Mojave on an APFS formatted partition of an external USB HDD?

    According to this page: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mh40593/10.14/mac/10.14 it’s perfectly possible - in Mojave - to encrypt an external HDD - any removable media in fact - with a couple of mouse clicks. Yet that option doesn’t appear in the context-sensitive menu when I...

    Orphaned LaserJet?

    Our household has an old HP LaserJet 4100N plugged into our AirPort Extreme base station via Ethernet. It worked fine until I clean installed MacOS Mojave onto my Intel iMac recently. Now the iMac won't recognize the printer; it acts like the 4100N isn't even there.

    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...

    What are your Geekbench and Cinema Bench scores? Mine seem a little low when I compare them to other MBP 13-inch scores, however, I never find some to my exact specs. So, how do you guys compare?
