Hey all - I am bringing an intern into my office to learn the ins and outs of Prepress. I currently use a Mini M1 and that will become the intern's Mac. I will get a Mini M2 (Studio I hope!). What;s the best way for me to clone all of my settings, everything so I still have the same functions as...

Good Saturday - my Saturday project: I am attempting to make a new bootable HD for my old Mac Pro 2008 FROM my new M2 Mini. But I can't get the installer to not want to install on my new Mini. I have a formatted 1gb drive in my dock. How do I get the installer to see the new HD? I just...

Howdy - I have a 2020 Mac Mini M1 Ventura 13.4.1, connected to a partitioned 2TB OWC miniStack USB 3 hard drive. Partitioned into 2-1TB partitions. Formatted as Journaled HFS+, GPT. Nowhere in the documentation does Apple say what format Time Machine needs for external USB 3 hard drives...

Hey all - I had a Mini with M1 chip followed up with an M2. Both were under my Apple ID. I have now sold the M1 to the company I work for. I've been trying to change the Apple ID on the M1 to the company ID but it then changes my M2 and my iPhones, laptops, everything that I had under my Apple...

I have my Mac Mini M1 running Monterey and always have concerns upgrading to a new name. I'm primarily a designer and an Adobe user. The speed of the M1 while working 3D in Dimensions is impressive (I know, not a lot of love for Adobe lately). But my question - are there any issues with Ventura...

I must not be looking in the right place. Just got my 2020 Mac mini with the M1 and the SSD with 250 gigs. First new Mac I've had in 10 years! Dang, I never knew a Mac could start up so quickly. My question is, when the system goes to sleep after 15 minutes, it's shutting down the network...

Hey all - I am setting up to buy a new Mac Mini with the M1. All of my work is on my MacPro with 3 internal drives. Will there be an issue connecting the Mini to the MacPro so that I can use the files on those drives? I'll probably need some type of switch or hub between the 2? Thanks for the help!

I want to upgrade my wife's iPad from a 2018 iPad 9.7 to a new iPad. She has a nerve damage disability and uses her iPad for Happy Color painting app. It takes her mind off the pain. Not an air or a Pro, just a newer, better, faster model. I'd like to buy from anywhere but Verizon. What is the...

Hey all - I am on Mojave, MacPro 5,1. want to create an exact copy of my startup disk (Bay 1) and I want to clone it to another internal drive (Bay 4). It appears that Carbon Copy Cloner will only create the clone to an External drive. It keeps calling it a Dry Run when I attempt to clone from...

Good morning - I have a 320Gb hard drive in Bay 4 of my MacPro5,1 that I'm trying to turn into a back up startup drive. I thought that I had pretty much cleared everything off of the drive so I only have an empty Users folder that I can't delete. This drive did at one time have the Sierrra OS...

Hello - I found the thread about downloading the Mojave macOSUpdCombo10.14.4.dmg. Do I need an earlier download to do an initial install of Mojave, upgrading from El Capitan? Would somebody be so kind to leave a download link. Please and thank you!

Yeah, whatever they are called. In the finder, I can no longer flip the triangle to the left of the folder to see what is in the folder. Plus now the tabs are all open in the same window, not separate windows. Is that new to High Sierra? Thank you!

I have been using a 500 gig drive as a startup drive for Sierra and a MacPro 2012 5,1 and want to make a COMPLETE backup to migrate to a 1tb drive. Eventually I will upgrade to High Sierra - the highest I can go - I think - on this computer. I have run out of space, showing 319gb used and 2.7gb...

I have a mid 2012 MacPro running Sierra with 32gb RAM. I'd like to use both Ethernet ports on the back - one for file transfers and one for office networking and printing. Is there a way to do this?

I have a Mac Pro 2008 with El Capitan and want to get DVD and BluRay burning software for home videos. I was considering Toast V15. First, will it work and second, is there something better than Toast?

Hey all - I have a 2003 G4 MDD that I am planning to sell, probably as a parts machine. We had a power issue as a result of an electrical problem with my laser printer that I'm guessing fried the power supply on the MDD. I now have G5's (2008 and 2012). How can I or how do I go about retrieving...

Hey all - After switching from El Capitan to Sierra, I need to copy my custom paper and sheet size settings for my HP Z3200ps plotter. Both systems are on separate drives and I need to bring the sheet size and different paper settings into Sierra. There are so many places to look in the Library...

I think I'd like to try the upgrade from El Capitan to Sierra. I can't go all the way to High Sierra without Sierra first, correct? I want to install on one hard drive and be able to pull the drive out if I want to keep El Capitan. Cheryl - you gave me a download link before to get a clean ISO...

Hey all - I have my iPhone 8+ that updated an app that is horrible compared to the previous version. I have the previous version on an iTunes backup on my Mac El Capitan 10.11.6 but apparently iTunes cannot restore a single application anymore. I have iTunes 12.7 on Mac and IOS 12.1 on my...

I am trying to pair my iPhone 8 Plus with my 2008 Mac pro desk top. The Mac says that it has Bluetooth but it is not pairing. Is this just something that Apple never considered doing?
