    Mac Mini M2 upgrade is in the cards, but I have a question regarding storage ...

    Yeppers. Doesn't solve my problem, however ... if you save "online only" you can delete from the computer and dropbox then does act as an external. Phew. Got there through the back way :-)

    Mac Mini M2 upgrade is in the cards, but I have a question regarding storage ...

    well, that explains that! Thanks. Do'h. And here I thought I've been moving stuff onto the dropbox to free up space on the HD. For the past eight years :cool:

    Mac Mini M2 upgrade is in the cards, but I have a question regarding storage ...

    Yeah, what I figured I would do is use Externals for all the usual suspects. I already have movies offline, and back up photo.libraries. And all the archived iMovie stuff. What gets confusing as well, as it appears that anything I have saved offline through dropbox shows up as being on my...

    Mac Mini M2 upgrade is in the cards, but I have a question regarding storage ...

    That's what I'm asking ... so, do I transfer everything to an external to make the switch? Do the apps transfer okay? I guess the question is, just how easy is it to do? I mean, I have 1TB "in the cloud" between Dropbox and Apple, but I really don't like the process of getting things out of the...

    Mac Mini M2 upgrade is in the cards, but I have a question regarding storage ...

    I currently have a 2014 MacMini and am glad to have not upgraded to the M1 (with the M2 now available). I'm sure the lower end one would meet my needs, except for a question I haven't been able to solve. I currently have 800+gb saved on my SSD drive that came with the 1TB Mac Mini 2014. How the...

    How do you remove albums from Music?

    Any idea how to "just simply" delete a playlist? Not import one, or export one, or consolidate one, or share one, or burn to a disc, or sort, or show lyrics, or organize, or show duplicates. Just delete. Don't want to delete the music in it, in the library with the professor, holding the...

    How do you remove albums from Music?

    Because I like things to be neat. :-) And it's easier to delete an entire album if you want instead of one at a time. And, the albums with just one song on them are confusing. The playlists are confusing as it is. When you're listing to an original cast album, for example, "by artist" will...

    How do you remove albums from Music?

    What do I click on then to remove them from albums? Sorry, confused. Just trying to clean it up. Not looking to play them (I will be using the playlists). I'm thinking the issue might be that when I originally saved the songs, I didn't save the whole album, just songs from the albums. So, MUSIC...

    How do you remove albums from Music?

    Remember, I don't want to delete from the library. I don't want to delete the song. I want to delete how individual songs show up as albums.

    How do you remove albums from Music?

    Hi. I really stopped attempting anything with Apple Music once iTunes disappeared. However, I've finally decided to make copies of CDs so I can actually enjoy music I've purchased. My 22 year old CD/DVD writer/player isn't having any issues importing (the 2020 LG died), so that's a good thing...

    What Song Are You Playing Now?

    Don't apologize. Most of these "song" titles depress me immensely. They look more like title for porn films.:-) I can't imagine doing any sort of creative writing with some thumping background with someone wailing about getting laid, having gotten laid, wanting to get laid ... :-) LOL

    What Song Are You Playing Now?

    Rarely would have be listening to music, but if I were, it would most likely be Chopin, Mozart, Saint Saёns, Debussy or Tchaikovsky. Certainly nothing with lyrics.

    Monterey Manage Storage on Fusion Drive/iCloud Question

    "just be careful its on the web portal before deleting" ... yeah, right.... hahahaha. That's one of the major issues. I can never tell exactly where anything is but it seems I have a lot of different "backups" on externals, on the computer, in the cloud, in the vapors, until, of course, I delete...

    Monterey Manage Storage on Fusion Drive/iCloud Question

    Don't have a clue as to what the steps are. I had an issue with the computer awhile back and had to put everything "in the cloud" and thought I'd taken it back down again. Dropbox makes me INSANE, but it's okay if it isn't backing everything up. However, it created a MAC Backup to DROPBOX and...

    Monterey Manage Storage on Fusion Drive/iCloud Question

    So, it's raining today. Doing some cleanup and managing some folders. I clicked on "About this Mac" and taking a look at STORAGE for the HD(I hadn't done this in awhile). And this has me scratching my head: Why is 85GB that are in two different drop box folders, showing up under documents On...

    A new hurdle with PHOTOS

    I just went ahead and deleted them after the message. I duplicated three of them first, moved those into PHOTOS just as I had done with all of them to test. Then deleted those three, went back to Photos and they were there. I then highlighted all of them to delete. They deleted, but came back...

    A new hurdle with PHOTOS

    I just spent about 2 1/2 hrs going through downloads, checking images to save, dragging them into PHOTOs, saving, moving into albums. Everything seemed to be fine EXCEPT about 40 photos. I'm getting this message. I had closed PHOTOS and restarted. Wondering why they are all grey now in...

    Maps, interactive ... is there something corrupted in Safari?

    Will give that a go. Where's "Develop" hidden again? (Never mind: Found it) Update: Oh, well, good idea, nothing. So, right now ... it seems that this is now only happening on one website, the NY Times Interactive Map site ... the google maps and other sites that were acting up seem (operative...
