    Question: Of all the ad-block filters which should I select?

    hi, I know there are certain blockers which offer a convenient set it and forget it option, whereas other are more granular. I have tried Crystal, Firefox Focus, and Adguard on iOS, and the usual suspects for OSX. When I look at Adguard or uBlock, I am presented with a list of filters to...

    Touch Bar and Safari - Favourites

    Anyone found a fix for this minor issue? Favourites usually show up in Safari on the touch bar as icons, but if you have two icons that are the same (e.g. different parts of the same website), then it shows the name as well, which takes up too much space. So, if I have BBC News and BBC Sport as...

    Safari Changing Color Saturation

    I noticed that when going back/forward that the page loads and then a second later it desaturates slightly. At first I thought I was just losing my mind, but I was able to recreate it. I'm using a 13" MacBook Pro with Touch Bar and running Sierra. Here you can see a page looking desaturated on...

    Spinning Beach Ball - Help me keep PEACE in my house

    Is there any method of determining what causes a 2016 MacBookAir to very frequently show the beach ball?

    Touch Bar discussion [merged]

    Is it just me, or does the touchbar seem to make no sense when it comes to actual usability? When you use any laptop, your focus is on the screen. When you have a touchscreen, you can see what you want to touch, and touch it directly. When you've got keys on a keyboard, you know where you...

When I try to download a file from a website through safari, it only downloads a partial portion of the PDF. This same issue is occurring on both my...

    Safari fast in the morning sloooow at evening

    Hello to you all, Has this ever happened to some other one? Safari 10.0.1 on my late 2012 i5 24g RAM El Capitan is blazing fast in the morning but speed steadily decreases during the day to being very slow in the evening. To the point that links open after a 2-3- seconds halt. Unfortunately this...

    Safari - Beachball when clicking on saved password fields.

    Did a search and noticed a few people on Sierra had this but no answer yet. Will file a radar with Apple but worth posting here too. It doesn't happen on all my Sierra computers, in fact it only happens on the new MacBook Pro, which I restore from a Carbon Copy Clone of my 'old' MacBook Pro...

    iOS 10.1.1 - Safari Reload Loop and Crash - Help?

    The past few days Safari has been an absolute turd. Navigating to a web page triggers the "A problem occurred with this webpage so it was reloaded" and it goes into a spastic loop which crashes Safari after 20-30 reloads. I have never seen this behavior before in nearly 10 years of iPhone...

    How to delete\undo auto-imported bookmarks from Chrome into Safari?

    So I signed in to Chrome on my Mac and set it as my default browser (since Safari on Sierra takes literally ten seconds to even begin loading a page, and Firefox doesn't support Google Sheets). Now Safari and my iPhone have had everything I've ever bookmarked in Chrome dumped into their...
