Hi there! I have a 2.7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 MBP (15", 2016) and I use a HooToo Hub so I can connect multiple external hard drives. For some reason, my external hard drives occasionally eject randomly with the "Disk Not Ejected Properly" warning. I'm obviously concerned about damaging my...

Hello, So I am usually the person that a lot of my friends come to when they need help picking a Mac and I consider myself pretty adept at being able to recommend the right amount (no more, no less) of what people need. I'm writing because I really don't know what to do for myself. I was using...

Hey guys, I have a Intel i5 MBP Early 2020. Seeing the new M1s, I'm feeling kinda jealous. However, I don't want to spend much as I've invested enough in the storage and RAM of my current MBP. I did check Sell Your Mac and those sort of websites, but looking at the price they are naming me I'm...

I was using the MX 3 as my primary mouse for my M1 MBP but after the recent update (11.2) it stopped working. The mouse works fine on my windows pc and the forward/back buttons also work fine. The only issue is that the mouse doesn't move when I move it. I've tried restarting multiple times, I...

So I got a MBP with M1 and 16 GB unified memory and 1 TB SSD. After a few days the camera stopped working. I called support and followed some resetting procedures, including HW booting sequences, etc, it didn't work. I gauged my options and I opted for a replacement, which I was entitled to...

Hello and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays, I have a mid-2012 13” MBP running on 10.12.6 Sierra, which I’ve been trying to update to the latest OS for some time now. Any update that is newer than Sierra throws a “An error occurred while verifying firmware” error. After removing the CD/DVD drive...

Hello to all M1 users, I have my Mac mini (16gb) for about a week now, and it is horrible. The Mac is connected to one 4K screen and one FHD screen. I am using Chrome, Safari, Zoom, Tidal and sometimes PyCharm and Xcode. If I start one or two Xcode simulators, my sound starts stuttering for...

Hi, I am currently running a 2018 MBP 13" (TB Base with 8/256GB) and it's so sluggish it with an external display (even 1440p along with internal) with just 8GB of RAM. Planning to switch to a Mac mini M1 with 16GB as my laptop always runs docked at my desk all the time. I got a good deal from a...

Hey So I received my magsafe charger today. Soon as I opened it, I plugged it into a thunderbolt port on my 2020 13" MBP (I removed the charger and left in the USB bank I have). The magsafe wouldn't work... It only seems to work when I remove the USB bank from the other thunderbolt port... Any...

Hey folks, I'm after a bit of advice re whether or not to buy a base model MacBook Air. My story is that I've had a couple of MacBook Pros over the last 9.5yrs (Early 2011 MBP 320GB HDD 4GB RAM and Late 2013 rMBP 128GB SSD 4GB RAM). I'm in education, so can get the 3yr warranties for any Macs...

Hi All! Noob here. I've read the new M1 MBP can drive and support 6K display. Does anyone know if it will be able to support LG's 34 inch 5K2K ultra wide display (5120 x 2160)? It has far less pixels than the Pro Display XDR though I know the number of pixels is not dispositive by any...

Apple has transitioned MBP 13” to M1, but still sells the 10th gen 13” MBP models with the better speakers. What speakers do they now have in the M1 versions? And if the M1’s are so fast then why keep selling the Intel ones? Why keep the 13” Intel around at all?

I dove right in and ordered a maxed out 13" this morning. I'll be using it mostly in clamshell mode at my desk. What are some recommended docks? At minimum, I need all of these simultaneously: 3.5mm audio, gigabit ethernet, 4K monitor, charger, and at least 2 free USB ports for external storage...

I still have working mid2012 MBP with 8GB Ram. It has no any particular problem at the moment when I use it as is. But when I connect second display (no matter via thunderbolt or HDMI) the CPU overload does not allow to use any browser etc in addition to 2nd display. When I disconnect 2nd...

Hey everyone, I have noticed this weird issue when trying to change DNS settings on my router (AirPort Extreme). As soon as I change the DNS settings on my router, WiFi speed on my MBP drops significantly (download drops from 300Mbps to like 15Mbps). All other devices work just fine though...

Hi! I'd been having a few troubles with a MBP 17 inches A1261. It turns on just fine, and it works OK, but when you try to resume it from sleep, if you try to open some app or even just the apple menu inmediately after, it turns off and then turns on but like dead (No chime, no picture, fans at...

Hello all, I have notified unremoval dust particles on my MacBook Pro 16 screen during cleaning using special wipes for glossy screens and dry microfibre cloth. It looks like dust particle, but cannot be removed normally. It does not affect my visibility. What could it be? How can I remove...
