    AE Red Giant's Plugins on MacOs 12 Monterey

    I have a perpetual license of Red Giant's Trapcode Suite v15 (Particular, Form etc.). Luckily it still works well on MacOs 11 Big Sur but was planing to upgrade my Intel Mac to macOS Monterey. Does anyone know if Red Giant's Trapcode v15 plugins (perpetual license) still run on macOS Monterey?

    Mac User Login Photos

    Two questions for you guys (and gals)... 1) I noticed (at least with Monterey) that the user login photo, which comes up when you first turn on the computer is a lot larger in size than previous Mac OS's. I find it unsightly, to be honest. Is there a way to turn off the photo and rather have...

    Mail Search not working after Monterey Update

    Is anyone experiencing problems with Mail Search after updating to Monterey? I have tried all the solutions posted on other sites, and still no luck. Restarted, logged out, called Apple, reinstalled the OS again. Still no luck. Thanks for any pointers if you have any.
