    After a Sequoia update, has anyone else had to manually set Word and Excel as the default apps for opening .docx and .xlsx files?

    As per the subject line; neither Word nor Excel were recognised as standard apps for these file types and I had to do it manually (and against the advice that it wasn't known that these apps would open these files). I have had to do this on more than one machine, both with Intel (i7) and Mac...

    Problems with Photos app functionality

    I like most of the changes to the new Photos app, but I've run into a few problems with my workflow. They all apply to the Mac version as well. 1. "Recently Viewed". There should be a way to disable this. Or at least clear the history. It's a privacy issue. 2. Slideshows. There no longer...

    Unable to update MacOS Sequoia Public Beta (24A5331b)

    Every time I try to "Restart Now," I get an error. I've tried restarting in Safe Mode. No joy. Am I going to be stuck here? I've owned Macs since 1989, and while I'm nowhere near a novice, I am totally baffled what to do about this… other than call Apple, though they tend not to want to help...
