    Problems with zip files - Archive Utility

    Hi all, I'm experiencing problems with Archive Utility in macOS Monterey 12.4. Using that app, I can compress folders using any of the options it offers in preferences. I'd like to use 'Zip archive' most though, as I want the zipped folder to be opened by Windows users as well as Macs...

    Watch Unlock has become unreliable on multiple systems

    Not sure whether anybody has made the same observation, but Watch Unlock has become really flaky for me on both a Mac Studio and a MacBook 13" M1. My Intel MacBook Pro sort of works at times as does my old Air running High Sierra. This used to be quite reliable. Not sure with what version of...

    Hello, somehow inspite of Terminal methods and USB refresh apps (for weeks, many man hours), macOS Monterey won't mount any external drives (it does mount the internal drives), now I plan to burn my older macOS (like High Sierra which has been the most stable macOS by far) installer as a...

    Any App or TSR (runs when you boot in the background) That'll Forces a Volume to Mount?

    Hello Apple and Mac friends. There seems to a major bug with macOS Monterey whereby it doesn't mount .dmg .iso and images when you double click it, it also doesn't mount the external volumes, like USB external drives or USB flashdrives. This wasn't a problem in Big Sur or Catalina. I'm using...

    Best OS for 2019 iMac, for performance & stability: 11.6 or 12.4?

    Just picked up a 27" 2019 iMac (i9/580X). What's the best OS if the criteria are just performance (e.g., minimal interface lag) and stability: 11.6 (Big Sur), or 12.4 (Monterey)? I don't care about the feature differences between the two, and my apps will run fine on both. Monterey is...

    Massive 100+ GB "System Data" since upgrading to Monterey

    Just upgraded to Monterey this weekend and noticed almost this exact behaviour. For me it was over 372 GB of "System Data" and my local storage went from around 1.3 TB to 870 seemingly overnight. I know that I didn't use this much before because I have a clone of my hard drive pre-upgrade that...
