    Consumer rights UK: Flickering screen with vertical lines now visible 2yo MBP

    Hi, This is probably a question more for the Consumer rights but wanted to know if anyone else went through the same and how to best go about sorting it without having to remortgage my house to cover the cost of the repair. I purchased a 13inch MBP 2020 (M1) model in June 2021 (now outside...

    MacBook Pro Buying Advice, You Hate Me

    You hate these posts. But I have no Mac nerd friends and I'm looking for opinions/advice! Running a 2017 MacBook Pro 15, but the screen is dying. I'm mostly a writer, but I do some graphic design and video editing. Nothing fancy, usually shoot and edit 1080p, rarely 4k, never RAW footage...

    M1 13" Macbook Pro vs. M2 Macbook Air?

    My 2015 13" MBP is finally on its deathbed after many long years of faithful service, and as much as I'd love to splurge on the 14" or 16" MBPs, I'm looking for a budget-friendly upgrade for now. I've narrowed down my options to the following two, which are also practically identical in price...

    iPad Pro Can someone help me find out what's throttling my download speed on my 2020 iPad Pro...?

    I am an autist, and am stuck in a care home so I have no control over the internet. I have lamented loud and long to both the manager and head office, but nobody cares enough to do anything about it (staff only care about things when they affect them). To someone like me a decent internet...

    Safari logging out all websites (M1 MacBook Pro)

    I'm looking for some out of the box solutions for this ongoing issue. Any websites I'm signed into (Twitter, Google, YouTube, Facebook, Pinterest, Gizmodo) will all logout at the same time. I can stay logged in for typically one day, maybe up to 2 days and once for only 2 hours. When logging...

    KVM switch for Pro Display XDR to two M1 MBPs?

    I’ve read a few posts related to this topic, but with slight variations and no definitive answers. Does a KVM switch exist that can support switching between two M1 MBPs on a Pro Display XDR?

    Constant Kernel Panics

    Got a 16" M1 Max around mid-December. Didn't have a problem for the first week or so, then the unit began to panic constantly, no matter what I was doing (watching videos, on the phone, on Discord...). After around 20 panics in around 2 weeks, I brought the computer into Apple, who thought it...

    Why is everything on MacBook Air screen larger than on MacBook Pro?

    I own an M1 MacBook Pro for my personal use, my work gave me an M1 MacBook Air recently, and I've noticed everything on the screen of the MacBook Air is significantly larger than on the Pro model. Why is this? The screens have the same resolution size, it's kind of like the whole display on the...

    MacBook Pro 2021 lid scrapes against bottom when opening/closing

    I bought the new MacBook Pro 14 inch a couple months ago (October 2021) but have since noticed that the bottom left corner of the screen/lid scrapes against the main body of the laptop whenever I open and close it - so much so that the rubber lining on the bottom of the screen has rubbed off. I...

    Why aren’t there more iOS apps on Mac M1’s?

    How come M1 Mac’s don’t have more iPhone apps? I thought it was one of the selling points for the M1, universal apps. Would be great if more apps worked.

    A couple of days ago I got my new MacBook Pro 14" and also got a new BENQ PD2725U external monitor as this is all replacing an old iMac. I have a very serious and very specific screen flickering issue that is especially apparent when running "Dark" appearance. The flickering will start after a...

    Is the 13" M1 Mac Book Pro still worth it at a major discount?

    There is a place where I can get an M1 Mac Book Pro with 16GB Ram, and 512GB storage for $1,299.00. Or I can get a Windows Device with an RTX 3050, AMD Ryzen 7, 16GB Ram, 512GB Storage with a 15.6in 144fps display for $1,099. AS a die-hard Apple Sheep that likes to game. Should I get the Mac, or...

    HDR content on Youtube - Chrome vs Safari

    I just got new M1 Max MacBook and also using MacOs Monterey for the first time. First thing I wanted to check was HDR content and fired up the Bulgaria 8K HDR. The colours on Chrome were totally washed out but safari is showing HDR content amazingly well and display is also treating it as HDR...

    SDXC on M1Pro/Max - Is it UHS-ii?

    What do we reckon? Nothing to indicate in the specs (unless I've missed something). My Cameras use UHS-ii SD Cards and transfer rate with a UHS-ii USB-C dongle on a 2019 MBpro is nice and speedy. I'd love to ditch the dongle (seeing as that's the idea with the ports) but I have a sneaky...

    Best Thunderbolt 4 USB-C Docking Station Solution?

    I've used a variety of USB-C docking station solutions for my M1 MacBook Pro, and unfortunately, I have been having constant issues with them. The OWC Thunderbolt 3 docking station was one that I've had the fewest issues with, but they ultimately breakdown after a couple months of usage. One of...
