    Have I formatted my Mac correctly before selling it?

    Hello, This post is because I sold my Mac mini a year ago and I'm getting paranoid that I didn't format it, but restarted macOS. But I'm sure I deleted the data before, because when the Mac installation was finished it didn't ask me for a password. (I think, I don't have a good memory) Thanks...

    macOS/Mac Studio display management is driving me insane. No, really.

    I have two Dell P2715Q monitors that I use frequently and a Vizio P65Q9-J01 TV set that I use on occasion, sometimes as a monitor for editing video, and lately because it's the only way I can output 5.1 audio to my receiver without having to buy an expensive audio interface. The HDMI cable from...

    Both the Terminal and Chrome appeared after I booted up this morning, despite neither of them being set to open at login, or as login items for my user group.

    Stuttery/choppy/low framerate animations

    So I've been a lifelong Windows user and last month made the leap to buy a 24" iMac M1 with 16GB of RAM.
