    Upgrading from iPad 9.7 Verizon

    Except, in the case of cars, it includes finance charge; most iPads & iPhones are interest free.

    Upgrading from iPad 9.7 Verizon

    FWIW, my wife had to have a cellular iWatch when she 1st wanted one. In the 2-3 years she owned that, never did she actually use the cell, as her iPhone was always within 20-30 feet of her. Her current watch is the 'standard' version, and all works exactly as the original one did. Saved $10/mo.

    Why does Finder SUCK???

    Why can't you create an alias in the dock for Word, TextEdit, Pages, etc, etc?? One click & you're there! First post, so possibly you are a new Mac user? Windows users right click, Mac users occasionally control click. :)

    Costly mistake with monitor and MBP

    That is why I will never buy another Epson printer. There is an absorbsion pad down low. It gets filled up and the printer dies. Part not even available--needs to be sent in for replacement!

    Costly mistake with monitor and MBP

    Here's another choice. Again assuming the 2019 13" MBP. $83.99 plus shpg: https://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/BAP13MBPR58K/

    Which MacBook version should I switch with to get better video editing support?

    Your mission looks quite intense! 16" MBP will be more than sufficient to handle the job. Apple will not let you do any internal upgrades, so it would be best to get the most right off the bat. That means possibly upgrading to 32G RAM instead of 16G. 1TB HD & the 32G RAM can be ordered, but...

    Chrome no longer saves passwords since Big Sur upgrade

    And it used to be, likely still is, a tremendous memory hog.

    MacUpdate

    As well they should! The site is a shadow of it's former self, and no where near as useful in many respects.

    MacUpdate

    It's not a "service"---just a website. (If it was a "service", they failed miserably!)

    MacUpdate

    With their "new" format, you cannot go back in time longer that about half a day. Used to be able to go back as far as you cared to.

    Aquamacs GUI stopped working

    Not true! Not that I had ever heard of it, or used it, but it was just updated a few months ago: http://aquamacs.org/downloads/

    Apple music app filtering display

    FWIW, I hate the new Music too. They dumped the 'mini player' too.

    Emailing files to a friend

    Apple, in the last few years, has had a penchant to create pictures in HEIC format instead of JPG/JPEG format. That could be your problem, There are several programs that convert HEIC to .jpg or other formats. Suggest you check format before forwarding your pics.

    MacUpdate

    As I said above, they have an app, but my rant is for the website, not the app. I have never even tried their app. I agree with you...why pay for an app when the alternative(s) are free.

    MacUpdate

    Further: "08 October 2021 MacUpdate joins forces with Clario MacUpdate has announced its new ownership as part of Clario. There will be no change to MacUpdate as a platform and no change to MacUpdate community teams and management...." “...MacUpdate has always been known as an independent...

    MacUpdate

    Another problem with their "new" format is you cannot go further back than today. Any checking for updates has to be daily or nothing. By the way, they do have an updater app, but no way will I install that!

    MacUpdate

    Most, if not all, will run on M1 Macs thru Rosetta.

    MacUpdate

    I am totally disgusted with MacUpdate. I am a regular user, but it is getting so hard to use them, I just may have to change all I possibly can to Apple's App Store. This is an email I sent to them today. I urge anyone that is at all interested in what they (used to) provide to also write and...
