    2015 iMac crashes or hangs waking from sleep

    Trying to fix an iMac for a client. Computer is VERY slow to resume from sleep mode (blank screen for maybe a solid minute) or kernel panics and reboots. Customer also reported programs and files won't open. My initial suspicion was a buggy or incompatible SSD, but I've had no success with a...

    Calendar notifications disappear due to sleep

    This is new. My Calendar alerts are gone whenever I wake the Mac from sleep. This is pretty bad for me since I often set Calendar (all day) alerts for my most important to-dos of the day as well as appointments. Has anyone seen that behaviour before? Settings are set to alerts and I'm on 12.5.1.

    16" MacBook Pro Stuttering under iGPU

    Hi, I recently received a 16" MacBook Pro base model (i7 9750H, radeon 5300m 4gb, 16gb RAM) from my school and I've noticed that in a lot of use cases, especially Chrome, there is a lot of stuttering and lag while using the integrated intel UHD 630 GPU.

    I have to reluctantly conclude: macOS Monterey is a horrible product, quality-wise

    I have been a macOS user since the first appearance of MacOS X. After the initial start, macOS became a platform that I loved not just for the experience, but for its stability and performance. I would easily have a laptop running for many months without single reboot and without problems. I am...
