    MBP - non Touch Bar BUT with tb3?

    Hey all, I think I know the answer to this – but is there a MBP with 4 Thunderbolt 3 ports, but *without* the touch bar? I need Thunderbolt 3 for work – and I need all three ports. But as a power user, hate the Touch Bar. It's beyond pointless. You all know this – any solution that needs...

    I am not sure when it happened exactly but before my employer went "work from home" I used to be able to connect my Caldigit dock to the right side so I can run my drives and dual monitors. No problem since February until mid to late March. Got back into the office this last week finally and...

    Hi, Mini2018 + Mojave + LG's 34WK95U-W: Apple failed to ever get this bug fixed. After sleep, the very good loudspeakers (+subwoofer) in display stays silent, you might say at sleep.

    MP 7,1 How many TB3 busses should you have vs do you actually have?

    On the phone an Apple technician told me to bring my 7,1 Mac Pro into the shop for repair after finding out that under About - System report - Thunderbolt there were two busses listed - one with number 2 and number 3. But no number 1. Somehow I suspect that this could have something to do with...

    I tried (and failed) to transfer files IN FILE APP on iPad to Mac (Catalina) via Thunderbolt. Is it even possible?

    I took a 1 hour 4K/60fps test video (25GB) on my iPhone 11. I AirDropped it to my iPad Pro 11 (this took 30 minutes). Then I copied it to the Files app on the iPad and deleted it from the Photos app on both devices (and emptied trash), so the video is now only on one device in the Files app. I'm...
