Welcome, welcome to this beautiful and sunny frosty day. I'm just sitting in bed eating my favorite snacks. I am browsing Netflix in search of a new series that will take up a lot of my free time. Besides, I miss concerts, I would love to jump to good music among cool, colorful people

Hello,
I just signed up for this forum. I am using an intel based 32 bit Imac 4.1 I got it for $50 and am trying to make it work better. I do not want to have just windows 10 as my os on it. It sucks with 10 32 bit...ugh. Anyways, I am a newbie too.

Hiya all, I've been lurking here for as long as I have been using Macs. Probably around 10+ years now. I'm from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and I just received the delivery of a brand new Mac Mini M1. 😃 My first ever Mac Mini and first new Mac in 7 years. Last was a MBPR 15" Late 2013.

A lot of places in the world have laws against stalking. Glad you finally joined us after 10+ years of stalking the forum.

Hi everyone my name is arad ralami, Recently I've read your iPad Pro article and I got to say what a perfect and useful article, also looking for iPod accessories and I found your forum, so I decided to register, my other hobbies are playing video games, watching movies and anime, so I hope we have a great time with each other here.

Sorry if I have any mistake in my grammar, English is my second language.

Hello, having had Window computers for many years the Mac is such relief. But I find doing anything out of the ordinary with it very hard and explamations on the Internet by experts not always very clear. Often too nerdy. So I hope to find a bit more guidance on this site

Don't be afraid to jump in the forums and ask for help. There are a lot of good people on the forum that take the time to help. Let everyone know you are new to Macs and need everything spelled out in a clear and concise manner for a beginner.

Long time caller, first time listener. I have been all over “google earth” trying to find ways for me to get my NewWorld G4’s and G5 running supported up to date OS since someone decided they weren’t worth anything anymore. Well guess what?!?!? This site and the threads addressing PowerPC and Linux finally contained the files I needed to get them up and running.

Have fun, and stay safe

Hello

 

[Shardlake]

Ay up. Hoping everyone is well. I received my 12 Pro Max on Thursday. My previous iPhone was the 4, I think. I’ve had every Samsung Galaxy Note since then. I just fancied a change.

It is a bit of a learning curve. Some things are really awkward on the iPhone and the lack of some basic functions is really odd to me. I’m sure I’ll pick up the OS fairly quickly. Anyway, here for guidance and a blether.

Hi all,

I've been working as a mobile software developer for about 8 years now. I've worked on iOS, Android, Blackberry, Windows 10 Mobile. Nowadays, my main focus is iOS and Android (for obvious reasons 😉).

I've come to realize that to build better apps, I need to talk to the actual users of Android. Talking to other developers only helps to a certain extent because we are wired to think a certain way. Sometimes we miss what the user's needs really are when building an app.

Anyway, I hope to have more conversations with this community in the future. Thanks for taking the time to read.
