    Just as the title says - I have been at this for about 10-12 hours now, and I am completely stumped. The machine is running the latest version of Sonoma (which I'm learning has some serious issues with external drives) and no matter what, it cannot see any external volumes or devices as...

    Ventura: Finder (not responding)

    I am getting the above message constantly, now. I started off by deleting ~/Library/com.apple.finder.plist and restarting the Finder. No difference. So, I decided to re-install MacOS Ventura. After the three-hour installation process, everything seemed to be working. Until it wasn't. I came back...

    I have a cMP 4,1 flashed to a 5,1. With an RX580. I was running Ventura and installed the SW update for macOS 13.6.3. OCLP prompted me to update its installation, so I did that and installed it on my boot drive's EFI partition. However, I didn't update root patches. I thought I should do that...

    Random question-mark boot, after deleting opencore legacy patcher

    Hello guys, I installed opencore legacy patcher on my MBP 2017 13" Intel-based (function keys) a few weeks ago and used Sonoma that way. Everything went smooth, even though it was my first time doing something like that in the macos-roam. I decided to remove opencore legacy patcher and get back...

    Time Machine stalls, never completes the backup

    Long time listener, first time caller. I haven't seen a post like this so I thought I'd add a new thread. I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue: I had not been using Time Machine on this specific laptop prior to this issue, but I have used Time Machine on other Macs before...

    Huge System Data and Documents files filling up 1TB HD....

    I have an M1 Mac Mini from which I need to move the contents as I am upgrading to an M2 Mac Studio.

    Apple Mail RTF emails displayed with Times New Roman font

    How can I set a consistent font for Rich Text emails in Apple Mail? It is so unprofessional and embarrassing to see that RTF emails are displayed with Times New Roman when you get reply. Bloated html/span tag mails are a pain, but in some cases you have to highlight text. Switching to RTF mode...

    TIP : change your avatar to anything else.

    If you did not know already: changing your avatar seems a drag as Settings > Users & Groups only shows some pre-cooked icons. What ever you click, there's no "choose another folder" option, contrary to wallpaper and screensaver menus. Just put your own picture or icon in a place where Finder can...
