    Apple TV Channels are the answer to cord cutting but Apple is letting them slowly die.

    I love the concept of Apple TV Channels. Apple’s intention for them is a great idea in the midst of an ever broken streaming market where everything is fragmented across multiple apps. But Apple really is letting go of a GREAT TV opportunity with channels. Great ideas they include: •...

I’ve been using a HomePod mini for a few years now, which has virtually no bass. Curious if anyone has any recommendations for a good streaming sound system with good bass so...

    I have a problem using my AirPods at work

    I think they might be automatically trying to connect to my coworker's AirPods, but I don't see how this would even be a problem because her AirPods would not be registered as being owned by me. There is bad service in the building where I work so I can understand how Spotify would be an issue...

    Apple devices and IGMP Snooping on, or off?

    Hey all, I have a topic that's been discussed before, but most of what I can find is quite a few years old. Also I wasn't sure which category to add this to, so I figured I'd add it to iOS because it can apply to multiple devices. With this said: Most of the old articles out there that...

    How to record screen and face on a Mac

    I know you can use QuickTime to record the screen, and I do have Final cut and you can record yourself on that as well. However, is there a way to do both, screen and face with a single app?

    Anyone Else Having Resolution Issues?

    For the past couple of weeks or so, I’ve been having streaming issues on Apple TV+ with shows like Ted Lasso and The Morning Show. The resolution will be really bad a lot of the time and sometimes playback even stops to buffer. I have 250 Mbps fiber internet. And sometimes, there will be...
