    MacOS High Sierra New SSD

    I have an early 2015 13in Retina display MacBook Pro (A1502) that I purchased from Goodwill. It did not have a hard drive. I have one on the way, but it's not Apple OEM so I know the MBP will not recognize it without the firmware update required by High Sierra. I've been running the MBP from...

    HS and Mac PRO 6,1 freezing solution possibly

    From the Terminal run "caffeinate -isd" and leave the window open but out of the way. It seems to have cured the random screen freezing in High Sierra where everything would continue working after the screen in focus froze while leaving the mouse to move about. These freezes seemed to have...

    Should I switch to OS High Sierra?

    I have a Late 2011 MacBook Pro that is currently running MacOS Sierra 10.12.6. I was wondering whether update the mac to High Sierra is a good idea in terms of performance. Actually my mac is very performing, considering the age and the fact that it is not the most recent model. Last year I...

    Handoff not working after upgrade to High Sierra

    My 5,1 Mac Pro has an upgraded WiFi/BTLE card. Continuity is fully working with handoff and AirPlay on Sierra. I have noticed that although the General Preferences still shows the option enabled, it stops working after upgrading to High Sierra. Is it working for anybody else?

While using it, the system is stable as long as I do not use the USB 3 ports on the CalDigit FASTA cards. I can live with that. But the inability to sleep and 3...

    Hi, I want to clean install High Sierra. The last time I did it, i formatted to APFS and enabled FV after OS installation. Remaning time for encryption was 14 hours vs 20 minutes on Sierra! This time, if I just format to APFS encrypted during clean install, FV will be enabled from the start...
