    Adding a Location to a custom Focus

    I watched a YouTube and suggested I turn off many of the location options for System Services. When I try to set a Location for a custom Focus, I can type in the address and it shows up but when I touch it, it just disappears and nothing is set. Turns out I need to enable "Alerts & Shortcuts...

    Suggestion of new service that macosx.com could provide

    I don't mind waiting but I don't know of a definite place to look to see if people are having trouble with the updates.

    Suggestion of new service that macosx.com could provide

    Ok. I'll check out TidBITS. By the way, there is a YouTube channel that is all about putting newer versions of macOS on older Macs. I can find the channel if anyone is interested.

    Suggestion of new service that macosx.com could provide

    A few days ago, my watch tells me it wants an update and this is the start of updating all of my Apple toys. But, is the update safe and stable? A service that this website could provide is a notification that as many volunteer testers as this site can provide has installed all of the above...

    Scary Mail problem

    In the process of trying to fix my issue, I did a lot of things. I disabled all of my Rules. I disabled all but on of my mail accounts. I changed how Junk mail is handled to be as simple as possible. I tried booting in Safe Mode. I tried rebuilding the mail boxes. What finally seems to...

    Scary Mail problem

    It looks like iCloud.com will only see the mail traffic from my iCloud.com address. I don't see a way to set up more IMAP connections. Is that correct or am I just not seeing it?

    Scary Mail problem

    What I know is my Mail program on my Mac died instantly when I tried to start it. I rebooted and that didn't help. I could get to the mail servers via my iPad and I deleted about five pieces of junk mail that had come. The iPad doesn't have Rules (I guess) but the Mac does. That "solved" my...

    Disabled Software

    I'm going to try a virtual PC. I have a PC somewhere... but it isn't readily available.

    Disabled Software

    I'm doing that now. The software seems pretty unprofessionally done so I don't have much hope.

    Disabled Software

    About this Mac says Ventura 13.3.1. I click Mofe Info... and it puts me into System Settings -> General About. Now I click System Report... and it puts me into System Information. Now I click "Disabled Software" under Software and I see the driver that I need to use. The install script does...

    Mail app

    Have you found that the Mail app has become almost unusable? It use to have a button on the top to load the content. That button is gone. It displays the message for a while and then it decides to change the format AFTER a long timeout. I think it is trying to fetch something via the Private...

    How do I identify passkeys in my Keychain Access and determine which site they are for?

    I have a number of edge case questions about Passkeys but I'll start simple. I am developing the ability to use Passkeys for my web application. In the process, I've already created one or two passkeys that I would like to delete eventually. But I suspect I will need to create several more...

    Out of storage

    This is the second time in (I'm guessing) a week that my Apple Watch 4 running the latest WatchOS tells me it is out of space. I go to iPhone => Watch => General => Storage and over half the space is consumed with "Other" (white). Last time, I removed all the apps and music, etc and the "Other"...

    Saving Bookmarks in PDFs using Preview / Books

    Can any of you get this to work? I have a PDF that is writable. I "add bookmark" and it shows up just fine. I save the file. But when I close and reopen the file, the bookmark is gone. Is there some trick to it maybe? This is true for PDFs in the cloud (Books) as well as those saved...
