Migration from 8TB 5K iMac to Mac Studio?
Hello, I'm using a Retina 5K 27" Late 2014 iMac equipped with a 8TB SSD. This computer is struggling to keep up with the latest software and macOS (it's running Sonoma via OpenCore), and for years I've been hoping Apple would restart selling a 27" Retina iMac, but as everyone knows, that's not...- Brodgar

Can an old rMBP talk to a brand new Macbook?
Hello. I am still using a 2013 rMBP. It works pretty well, except its original battery is dying. Time for an upgrade. I'll get a MBA15 or MBP M3 or something. Doesn't really matter...they'll be stupidly fast and more capable than what I have now. Say the new laptop arrives. Can I create a...- davagorn

iPhone 8/Plus iPhone 15 Pro Max vs iPhone 14 Pro Max: Upgrading from the iPhone 8 Plus
Yikes...I know...an upgrade is long overdue but I'm not someone that changes their phone every 2 years for the sake of it and I'm pretty good at taking care of my stuff! I even still have my iPad Pro (A1673) from 2016...no cracks, no scratches, works perfect! 😂 Just wanted some advice as my...- CamilleBeauchard

iPhone 15 Pro What phone did you upgrade from and have you noticed a difference?
Personally I had an iPhone 13 128gb and have chose the iPhone 15 Pro. The camera is night and day and I do really notice the smooth scrolling from the 120hz display. AOD is pointless imo, but I like the dynamic island. Also my eyes don’t feel as jaded reading in dark mode at night. Battery is... -

Was on Reddit last week getting excited for my upgrade to the 15 pro max (coming from the 12 pro). Idk, but it seems like this year’s release got the societal bandwagon broadcast when compared to the last few years (maybe it was just me, but it reminded me of 2008-2013 era).

Is it possible to use a strange computer to update iPhone without syncing?
I have always backed up and updated my iPhone using iTunes. With the recent security issues it seems like it's time to finally update to iOS 16 (I'm still using iOS 15 at the moment...).

Adding L2 Cache to 7400/7410 CPUs
Has anyone ever tried adding L2 cache to an early G4 7400 or 7410 CPU? According to their datasheets, they support up to 2MB of cache. As far as I can tell, Apple and all third party upgrade manufacturers never used more than 1MB on one. I found some cache modules that have the exact same pinout...- evanboonie
