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

    Are you saying you want to erase/wipe, re-format, and install? Or you wishing to upgrade/update your OS 12.7 to OS 13 or 14? The latter can easily be accomplished through Software update without the added step of using a thumb drive; much faster also. FWIW, this Mac that I am using & typing...

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

    Is there a reason that you do not upgrade using the Software Update available in System Settings through the internet?

    Do I need to reformat my TM backup that I used prior to MM2 and Ventura?

    Yes, you may drag any of the TM folders to the trash and empty it any time you choose, BUT, be advised, it takes a loooong time to empty the trash. (Been there--done that! :) )

    Samsung 1710 printer driver for MacOS 12.5.1 monterey

    Any inexpensive printer (less than $100) will likely be better than your old printer. (Is it dot matrix? o_O ) As an added bonus, it'll likely be wireless, have a scanner and be capable of 2 sided printing. On a serious note, do yourself a favor and buy the ones that use bottled ink---those...

    iPhone won't get email or browser results unless on wi-fi

    Left side top press & release; left side bottom press & release; right side press & hold; all is fairly rapid succession. (Ignore any message--just hold until it goes black and then the Apple logo appears--then release) Try again---you'll get the 'hang' of it. :)

    iPhone won't get email or browser results unless on wi-fi

    The hard reset will not delete anything and all of your settings will remain. I do it, as a routine, about every 2 months.

    iPhone won't get email or browser results unless on wi-fi

    To further what Cheryl said, do a hard reset. Press and release the Volume Up button, then press and release the Volume Down button, followed by a press and hold of the Side button. Keep the button pressed until you see the Apple logo. It will restart.

    Is it safe to remove the Library folders from the finder sidebar? And, should I leave one? Which?

    The sidebar is only for your convenience. You may remove both libraries from it; and, yes, there are, and should be, two libraries.

    Can I use a 2014 MacMini as an External HD?

    IMHO, if you don't care for the old Mini, strip the HD out of it, buy a HD enclosure (from Mac Sales/Other World Computing) and use it as you would any external.

    Vision Pro

    At $3499, I don't think they'll sell very many! That's ultra pro territory pricing for a household product. Just won't fly!

    How is this possible??

    Beats me! Why do USB-C & Lightning plugs work downside up & upside down? Sure hope you don't stay up all night tonight pondering this stuff! :) FWIW, I would have made a bigger hole for the plug.

    Mouse Pointer Moving Along with Click

    No harm, but you are clearly quite computer literate. How could you not realize? Are you that sheltered that you do not know that there is another computer world out there besides MS Windows PCs?
