    Time Machine stalls, never completes the backup

    Long time listener, first time caller. I haven't seen a post like this so I thought I'd add a new thread. I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue: I had not been using Time Machine on this specific laptop prior to this issue, but I have used Time Machine on other Macs before...

    Huge System Data and Documents files filling up 1TB HD....

    I have an M1 Mac Mini from which I need to move the contents as I am upgrading to an M2 Mac Studio. I was going to ask the forum the best way to do this (just double-checking that Apple's Migration Assistant was the best route), when I realised I've got a different issue. I have a 1TB SSD HD on...

    Problem with Thunderbolt Dislpay after upgrade to Sonoma / Ventura

    Hi guys, I decided to upgrade to Ventura from Monterey a few weeks ago. At first everything was looking fine, but then I noticed a strange thing happening with my display.

    Apple Mail RTF emails displayed with Times New Roman font

    How can I set a consistent font for Rich Text emails in Apple Mail? It is so unprofessional and embarrassing to see that RTF emails are displayed with Times New Roman when you get reply. Bloated html/span tag mails are a pain, but in some cases you have to highlight text. Switching to RTF mode...

    TIP : change your avatar to anything else.

    If you did not know already: changing your avatar seems a drag as Settings > Users & Groups only shows some pre-cooked icons. What ever you click, there's no "choose another folder" option, contrary to wallpaper and screensaver menus. Just put your own picture or icon in a place where Finder can...

    Have These Ventura Issues Been Fixed?

    I read through the OS 14 Wiki, but wasn't able to find any info regarding these Ventura (and pre-Ventura) bugs - can anyone advise if these have been fixed in Sonoma? 1) iCloud syncing getting stuck - I'm praying that it's been fixed (so that I don't need to keep running 'killall bird' in the...

    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...

    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!

    OpenCore Legacy Patcher not working on imac 18,3 (imac 2017)

    I tried installing opencore legacy patcher on my imac 18,3. When I get to the step to install opencore, it is greyed out. I am assuming this is because my iMac is not supported by opencore 0.6.8...Can anyone tell me if that could be the issue? Thanks!

    Is there a SIMPLE way to reset my macOS 13 Settings?

    Hi, my mom's iMac has started to be REALLY slow the last couple macOS Beta updates. I don't want to downgrade, but just wondering if there is an easy way to reset the Settings, like on the iPhone, or if there a good app I can use to just try & clean the iMac & try to remove old preference files...

    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...

    I've been running the beta for Safari 17. I know the release version is now out, but my company blocks certain items in Software Update so I usually need to do a manual download and install. Does anyone have the link to the Apple server for 17 final?
