    How do I 'just simply' deal with this huge SYSTEM DATA report? Or do I need to deal with it at all

    Why is it seem it's always SOMETHING :) I moved the 300gb iMovie library. Docs: 82gb check. i Cloud Drive: 74GB check Photos: 27gb. Everything else in the mb range....preparing the 1TB move to the 512GB new Mac Mini arriving today .... then I see "only 265 gb available on current 1TB Fusion."...

    Can I use a 2014 MacMini as an External HD?

    I'm fine with the old Mini, just want to know what the procedure is to make it into an external. Do I just reformat the drive?

    Can I use a 2014 MacMini as an External HD?

    I have a 1TB Fusion Drive MacMini Intel 5. I finally am upgrading to the new Mini M2. It has 512GB storage. I know I'll have to make decisions on what to move and keep. (I did just move the iMovie to an external. It was 298GB, so that helps with the decisions - and I'm zipping that to save on...

    There has got to be a way to stop music from auto playing when using earphones

    I bought knock-offs and they're fine for when I need to have a conversation with someone for a long time, or if I'm on hold. $45. I think I'd be reeeealllly annoyed if I paid $200. :cool:

    There has got to be a way to stop music from auto playing when using earphones

    Sure, that's fine when it already starts playing. Spin, spin, swipe, spin. I'm talking about it not happening in the first place. Why do I have to go through this? Why does anyone? Why can't we decide whether music plays when earphones are plugged in? I own earphones for phone calls. No...

    There has got to be a way to stop music from auto playing when using earphones

    I've seriously spent quite a bit of time trying to find this answer. I cannot believe, seriously believe, that APPLE really thinks that every time someone puts earphones into their ears that they want music to start playing. The other day I was on hold using the speaker. I decided to put the...

    Magic Trackpad has me mystified. Why is it grabbing content without clicks?

    Without was set. I set for three finger to see. I did discover that if I touch the trackpad quickly, that's where I'll get the drag to highlight. I'll see if this makes a noticeable difference. Thanks. There's always something hidden somewhere. :) So far, the change for the trackpad to 3 finger...

    Magic Trackpad has me mystified. Why is it grabbing content without clicks?

    Possible, but it seems so arbitrary. And, I can never replicate on purpose.

    Magic Trackpad has me mystified. Why is it grabbing content without clicks?

    Either I'm dragging a finger at the same time I'm clicking on something, or the magic trackpad is really magic. But I can't figure out why often I'll have one finger on the trackpad and will be attempting to go to an open window or maybe scroll down and suddenly I'm highlighting content. Or...

    is it possible to (Just simply) add your own ringtone to iPhone11 iOS 16.5.1?

    Nope. Don't want to purchase a recording of a mockingbird. Want to use the recording I have of a mockingbird. I followed all the "just simply" steps in going to my music, finding the file, changing it to 30 seconds (it's 31, but still shows 31, though I changed and saved it as 29), changed it to...

    black screen, white logo, when switching log in

    I don't have the M1-2 yet. :-)

    black screen, white logo, when switching log in

    I believe it's an SS Drive but it's not M1, so might be Intel (but it's running OS Ventura). I was able to fix it by resetting whichever is applicable, NVRAM, PRAM by holding down Control-Option-P-R. And if there was any way to actually get the information on age, etc remotely (via Apple.com...

    black screen, white logo, when switching log in

    Well, we're trying to figure out what to do. I was switching log in users on the laptop. When I put in my password, the laptop window shook and said it wasn't right. The window finally dropped down and showed me the hint. It was exactly what I was trying to put in. Then I decided, heck, I'll...

    Sharing JUST Apple TV +

    I’ll give it a look. Apparently my mistake is attempting to do this on a computer through Family sharing. That way only allows me to share everything. (icloud, music, news, tv). I don’t think to do this because I don’t use a 4.5” phone to watch movies or shows. I use my 65” tv for that.

    Sharing JUST Apple TV +

    Okay. I remember back in the olden days you could choose what to share with family. Apple TV, Music, News, iCloud. I'm trying to "just simply" share apple tv+. I'm getting, after add member, share all of them. It's 2023. Can I not now just share one?

    Can I move my default iMovie.library to an External?

    My understanding is as long as the particular ext is connected, iMovie can find the libraries. I have four others and there hasn’t been an issue. Worried about the default as you concur. We’ll see if anyone else weighs in.

    Is the new iMovie 3.0 stable? No issues?

    Just asking. Often, too, iMovie gets "dumber." I was watching a YouTube video about the awesomeness of the new iMovie for influencers and TikTokers using their iPhones and Tablets. I'm editing old movies and have 10.3.5 at the moment. I like the storyboard feature, but don't need some of the...

    Can I move my default iMovie.library to an External?

    Any reason I can't move the default iMovie.Library to an external? I need to free up 300gb of space. I just now started to use special libraries for events/projects. The fastest thing, obviously, would be to move the default library and continue to make the individual libraries over time. But...

    Need a quick tutorial on MEMORIES in PHOTOS on iPhone 2023

    Not sure if this is the correct place to post. But since apparently the only way to edit the Memories is through the phone, I thought I'd start here. I was trying to do this on my Mac mini and the large computer but apparently I have to do the edits with swipes and clicks on the phone. So...
