    Airtime Capsule 2014 disk requirements

    IMHO, buy an external SSD hard drive and set up Time Machine to whatever settings you prefer.

    Mark Read

    Brief rant here as I know of nowhere else to post it other than in all forums.. I frequent many forums, and practically all have an option to 'Mark Read' or 'Mark All Read' or some variation of it. (This one too) I read and even sometimes respond to postings, but there are always threads I am...

    The shoe drops.

    AFAIC, All the more reason to have an iPhone. :)

    Printer refusing to cooperate under OS 13 and OS14.

    All of those "example" files came from Apple. Dump everything, and then install only the driver you need. The driver download for the Canon that DeltaMac linked to above is half way down the page. If that is not your printer, then all bets are off. I've been an Apple user since my Apple IIc...

    Printer refusing to cooperate under OS 13 and OS14.

    Yes, I have done this. (Got rid of 2 Canon cartridge ink jets and a Canon black only laser. Bought a Canon ink jet that uses large bottles of ink; now our only printer.

    Printer refusing to cooperate under OS 13 and OS14.

    Printer software leaves 100's, if not 1000's of pieces everywhere. Use EasyFind to search Brother and Canon to delete all traces, THEN reinstall. Example: I have only one printer, a Canon. This is just one page of many with a search word Canon:

    Ah Ha! Found a terrific little free app! It formats SD cards as Fat12 & SDHD cards as Fat32. That is all it will do. I did both and it works well! https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/sd-memory-card-formatter-for-mac-download/

    Long story short, I have a new toy that uses SD cards, but they have to be in Fat32 format. My Mac's Disk Utility (Sonoma 14.2) only has the options, other than Mac, ExFat or MS-DOS (Fat) Having 2 SDHD cards already, I had to go buy another just to have a Fat32 format that, I was told, come...

    Mac pro through Imac

    I think you BOTH are off in left field somewhere! The least computer intensive tasks are email and browsing. I'm surprised you picked those two to want more of. That iMac is seriously deficient in RAM--2Gig is no where near enough. Are you asking if you can use the iMac screen with the Mac...

    Key types two characters

    I'm thinking you had a crumb, or debris, in your keyboard. A can of compressed air can fix this (or occasionally make it worse.)

    Hardwired internet via a USB hub is not working after the MBP sleeps.

    Start by upgrading to the latest OS: 14.1.1

    Issue with Finder for one specific folder (Sonoma)

    Glad that worked, but dear Apple just released 14.1.1 for bug elimination. You might as well go all out and update again. It doesn't take very long.

    Installation of OS (12 and 13) stops in the middle and never gets completed

    "The end justifies the means" :) And your MacFuse? (of which I am totally unfamiliar)

    Installation of OS (12 and 13) stops in the middle and never gets completed

    Test for what??? Apple and thousands of beta testers have already done that! Now, after full release, millions have 'tested' it. You are needlessly creating a monumental headache for yourself.
