    Require simple help with MacPostFactor installing Mav's on Late 2007 MacBook

    Few days ago I successfully installed Mountain Lion 10.8.4 on a late 2007 MacBook. Thought it would solve my issues with my phone no longer syncing in iTunes. Turns out iOS 10 requires iTunes 12.5 and up, which is supported only on Yosemite and later OS's, so I'm going up to that. Now I'm...

The sound when you send a message in Messages (that little WOOOOO that goes up in tone) or when you have the chat open and you receive a message (the WOOOO sound going down in tone. Is there...

    Resolved Strange .txt File Generated

    Was just looking for a file and saw this in my main user folder: I of course did not make it, and I can't recall doing anything yesterday that would've resulted in this, either. Any idea as to why it was generated? Or what the purpose could be? Running Yosemite 10.10.5 (14F2009).
