    Safari keeps using DuckDuckGo even though it is set to use Google

    If I type a search into the address / search bar on Safari it takes me to DuckDuckGo. I have checked the settings / preferences and Google is set as my chosen search engine. I have tried selecting Yahoo, Bing etc but all have the same outcome. I don’t suppose anyone has any ideas why this is...

    I have a strange problem in Safari and Time Machine. It's started at some point a few months ago under macOS Sierra and is still there after upgrading to High Sierra (I didn't expect it to disappear when I upgraded). The problem is that a Time Machine backup and my Safari history both show...

    Insanely high and random CPU usage

    I have a base model mid-2017 nTB MacBook Pro. For the most part, I'm satisfied, but there were a couple occasions when the fans kicked on really loudly because of CPU usage.

    Security Update 2017-001 - Safari & Spotlight Search crashing

    Ever since I updated my MacBook, I can't open Safari without it crashing, can't even click on a link. Something's also up with Spotlight Search, it keeps appearing and disappearing and it's sort of driving me nuts. Does anyone know a fix for this yet? I hate it. Also, my battery is draining FAST.
