    Resolved Private Relay: Safari not hiding IP (on Sonoma?)

    Edit: Solved. I suggest that people check their IP on Safari to see if Private Relay is really working for them. Hi, I was trying the Private Relay feature on macOS (M1 Macbook Air) after updating to Sonoma. I checked my IP online while using it: surprise, websites have access to my real IP...

    MacBook Pinch to Zoom/Trackpad in preview bug

    Hi, I’ve noticed that when zooming in on a JPEG with the preview app using pinch to zoom on the trackpad the zooming is very glitchy and not smooth at all. Eventually it stops working completely. This doesn’t appear to be as big an issue during quick look but when the photo is opened in the...

    Resolved Sonoma set to release but wants to update to beta on Restart

    The title says it all. On one of my systems, Sonoma is set to Release but it wants to update to beta on Restart. I do not want to run betas while traveling. How do I reset the system and delete the pending backup? CMD-R in the Software Update pane did not do it.

    Upgrade from Monterey to Ventura ignoring Sonoma?

    Hi all, I'm on Monterey and would like to upgrade to Ventura now that V. seems stable. However, the upgrade menu in the corner already wants me to upgrade to Sonoma, which I consider too fresh. Is there a (safe) way to upgrade to Ventura, ignoring the 'offer' to Sanoma? ;JOOP!

    macOS Operation Not Permitted when using "Run Shell Script" action in Shortcuts macOS Sonoma

    I created a simple shortcut that prompts me for the number of copies I want to print along with the paper type. It then runs an "lpr" command in ZSH using the "Run Shell Script" action in Shortcuts. The shortcut worked fine until I updated to Sonoma. Now I get an "Operation Not Permitted" error...

    Sonoma crashes on startup (clamshell with Caldigit TS4)

    I've used Macs for over a decade in clamshell mode. The Sonoma update causes a crash/kernel panic on startup. I can no longer login using the Apple wireless keyboard and external display via Caldigit TS4 like I used to do. I have to open the lid, log in, acknowledge the crash, then shut the...

    Sonoma: Ethernet (Internet) Speed resets to about 100 Mbps after restart

I have a glass fiber connection with 500 Mbps up / 500 Mbps down speed, Zyxel AX7501-B0 router. When I cold boot up my Mac mini M2 Pro, the Ethernet speed (Internet speed) resets to about 100...

    Sonoma Printer Queue folder location?

    Prior to Sonoma, the Printer Queue folders were in ~/Library/Printers. I had some Printer Queues in my dock so I could easily control my printers. In Sonoma, I can't find the folders any more. Does anyone know where they were moved to and/or if they're user-accessible so I can add them back...

    Resolved TV App corrupt even after reinstall

    The Apple TV App was corrupt on RC2. I downloaded the final version (same rev) and installed again. It is still corrupt and cannot be launched. Isn't this on the sealed snapshot? How can this be? Any ideas on how to fix it? I can see the app in the Finder, but it is "not visible" in terminal.

    What's next for macOS?

    With Sonoma out the door what do you want in the next version of macOS? What does it need? What would you like to see revamped, changed or improved in the next major release?

    M1 Max still at Monterey 12.6.9. Skip Ventura? Ventura mature yet?

    Hi all, currently at Monterey 12.6.9 on my 16" M1 Max. I'm torn between going: 1. Monterey 12.6.9 -> Ventura 13.6 -> Sonoma 2. Skip Ventura and go Monterey 12.6.9 ->Sonoma. Any drawbacks to skipping a major macOS version entirely? Ventura's initial issues made me stick with Monterey. I just...

    Controller Emulation on Sonoma

    I like playing iPad games on my Mac with Apple's controller emulation so I can play games when I'm out and about with just my M1 MacBook Air keyboard and trackpad. Since trying out Sonoma though this feature just flat out doesn't work. I've tried it on multiple games and it just doesn't seem to...

    PostScript is dead

    Sonoma has removed the pstopdf command, as well as the PSNormalizer framework which provides the PostScript interpreter for the OS. You can still create PS to send to a printer, but there's no support for interpreting PS in the OS anymore. A sad day; though it's been coming for a long time...
