    Has iCloud Drive improved in Monterey (compared to Big Sur?)

    I'm currently on Big Sur and find myself regularly fighting with the way iCloud Drive syncs its contents: If I add a big file on a different Mac, it gets downloaded everywhere automatically (which is intended), but during this process, it's impossible to tell Finder to stop downloading the file...

    Renaming Files and Folders on a Windows Server Extremely SLOW after upgrade to Monterey

    I upgraded to Monterey 12.0.1 as soon as it became available. The biggest issue I'm having is that many Finder actions relating to files stored on our (Windows) servers is excruciatingly slow. In particular, renaming a file or folder takes a ridiculously long time to take effect. Sometimes the...

I couldn't return it because I got it abroad, and even though on my local Apple service they did change the screen and consequently the...
