    iPad Pro How is the scaling on the 10.5" Pro?

    I recall people claiming that the 10.5 would probably have poor scaling due to apps having scaling made for the standard iPad size which is 9.7". How does the new 10.5" handle?

    Changing key photo in live photos

    In iOS 11 you can change the key photo for live photos. Are all the photos you can pick between taken in full resolution? I thought only the main frame was taken as a full res photo and that the rest was a low res video file.

    Ipad 10.5 resolution

    I have read that the rumored new iPad 10.5 may have the same resolution as the current 12.9 iPad Pro. Does this mean apps will need to be updated to accommodate this new resolution? If so, my hope is that this will mean these updated apps will improve the 12.9 experience as well, which has been...

    MBP to Dual External Monitors - 1 has horrible resolution

    On the new MBP Space Gray, and like to dock it under one monitor. Both are HDMI connections. One USB-C is an Apple dongle and the other is an Anker dongle. The problem is -- whenever I hook them up, only ONE monitor has the amazing resolution, and the other goes to potato quality. It doesn't...

    Where are the monitor resolutions hiding?

    I just bought a new 29 inch wide LG monitor (29UM58). It wants a resolution not available on my Mac Mini running El Capitan. What? 2560 x 1080 (whatever!) and as a result I get a 4 inch black area on each side of the screen. It would be great to use the whole screen but LG tech support is no...

    How to set custom resolution for internal display in Sierra?

    I'm using Sierra on a 2015 15" retinal MPB. When I do screen recordings using Quicktime, the files I get are enormous and entirely unnecessary since I'm just going to scale them down in iMovie anyway. Plus, doing a screen recording seems to just be too much for this laptop; the fans go like...

    Making text bigger: Retina 4k w/ 'Larger text' vs. 1080p w/ lower res

    I'm buying a 21.5-inch iMac and was wondering if the more expensive Retina option is worth it if I'm going to use the 'Larger text' scaling option to get bigger text (I have poor eyesight). In other words, if I cannot use Retina's native res, does it make sense to get one over the cheaper 1080p...

    Hey, just wondering if anybody has the same issue. Used the 1680x1050 resolution from the beginning of my MBP. No problem whatsoever.

    LG Monitor Support

    Installed macOS 10.12 (16A320) Immediately, my LG ultrawide monitor stopped working correctly. Could not find the proper resolution, even option-clicking "scaled" revealed a limited list of resolutions. Had worked just fine for two years. Distortion now makes monitor nearly unusable.
