    macOS 10.15 Catalina on VM

    Has anyone successfully been able to get Catalina running on a VM? I made a quick attempt to upgrade a Mojave VM running on ESXI 6.7U2 yesterday but it did not appear to work. I have not had time to debug yet but will try again later.

    DriverKit API - works for GPUs?

    So previously a rumor stated that Apple would create a driver API to allow companies to create device drivers for users to download. There was speculation that Nvidia could use this API to create drivers for its GPUs: https://www.idownloadblog.com/2019/04/22/macos-10-15-api-device-drivers/ Now...

    When will my MacBook Pro stop getting software and security updates?

    Hope this is okay to post here! I got passed down a Late 2013 i7 2.3 GHz DG Retina MBP from my uncle. I was wondering when I will stop getting updates on this machine? Will I get MacOS 10.15, 10.16 etc and when will it stop getting vital security updates? Thank you!

    Recently I started use hotspot as my home internet. I have unlimited data and high speeds 160/40 Mbps. Everything works well except Photos.app. It just doesn't sync even a single photo. I contacted Apple support, but it's just a big facepalm. They asked me to test this problem with other...

    Does anyone have a solution for missing album artwork when using iCloud Music Library/iTunes Match?

    So far iTunes Match (on its own, I don't subscribe to AM) has been an awesome way to access my library from my work computer, but this missing artwork bug is slowly killing me. For some reason random albums' artwork fail to sync to other devices. After a bunch of googling it seems like this is...

    Resolved Graphical glitches with certain cards (ports? cables?)

    On a 5,1 I have three cards: 1080ti in the bottom slot, 1080ti in the next usable slot up (2?), then an m4000 in one of the top two slots. If I plug my screen into any card/port other than the 1080ti in slot 2, the macOS gui is glitchy/ghosting/slow/not correct. I'm using display port cables...

    SOLVED // Issue updating to 10.14.4

    Update seems to have been downloaded, but after clicking "Update Now" in Software update, MBP reboots fully, but the update isn't installed. Navigating back to Software update shows that 10.14.4 is still availble, and the cycle continues. Is there something I'm missing?
