    iCloud Cases of complete and unjustified account blocking

However, I have found that .pdf contents are not searchable by Spotlight when I do this. If I open Preview and then scan...

    Was setting up my new Apple TV 4K and...

    ... I had a huge freak out moment because the setup screen background looks suspiciously like a TV screen that has been busted up and has permanent scan lines, all along the upper left corner and top middle of the screen. It didn't help that I had just recently picked up and moved the TV, so in...

    iPhone 14 Pro Is the 48 MP camera used for Document Scanning?

    Just a quick question, figured I’d just ask despite not having a 14 Pro, but does the new camera make better photo scans in Notes for example? When taking my 11 Pro for „scanning“ it’s ok, I guess the newer pros have picture quality more on par with a traditional scanner. Right? Edit: I...

    G5 LCS cloth/foam replacement help

    Okay, so I bought a G5Quad like 5 months ago, and it's been running fantastic, but the foam thingy under the LCS was rotten from all the years of use. I took it out to clean all the dust that had accumulated and it was breaking in my hands. So a few months go by, and I find a polyestirene mat...

    Scanner vs. iPhone for capturing old photographs

    We have a LOT of old photographs (and negatives) stored in boxes. I'm talking about thousands and thousands of pictures taken with 35mm of my family, and some heirloom photos from extended family that have passed way. Years ago I bought a fairly expensive Epson V750 Pro scanner and tried to...
