    Reasonable Feedback?

    Hi, I've just installed Tahoe on my Moms/Sisters MacBook Pro and mine a couple days ago. Turns out, I hate the new Apps thing, and my mother is borderline mad, or was, until I downgraded the Mac she uses to Sequoia. I have access to the Feedback app on my Mac and want to share feedback with...

    It looks like Final Cut Pro is not ready for macOS Tahoe 26.

    Updated to macOS Tahoe 26 yesterday. I was expecting to receive updates for Apple's in-house apps from the Mac App Store. Even though there's no update, based on my past experiences, I didn't think compatibility would be a serious issue. However, Final Cut Pro (version 11.1.1) is totally...

    Tahoe will be the first new OS that I won't sail.

    Who remembers Lion? I thought I could withstand any buggy MacOS after Lion. Tahoe (RC) is making me change my mind. As much as I enjoyed the whole liquid design approach, everything else seems sluggish and out of place even on a MacStudio w/ 48GB RAM. Yes, the new spotlight seems powerful and...

    Anyone else with this issue on Tahoe? If I look through a bunch of files quickly with quick look it tends to freeze and break quick look. The only way to resolve it is to force quit/relaunch finder from the force quit menu. I can't believe they are going to release this on Monday with no more...

    How to enable autocorrect to fix multi-word US Holiday names?

    I don't know if this is possible, but I notice when I typed "labor day" in Day One and other editors, it does not suggest the correction "Labor Day". When typing "christmas" in the same applications, there was a red line under the word and right-clicking showed a list of correct spellings. Is...

    Feature Concept: Running Multiple Versions of Apple Mail (Per-Domain Separation)

    I’m a longtime Apple Mail user and honestly find it hard to replace — even compared to paid alternatives. That said, I’ve run into a real-world limitation I’d love Apple to consider addressing in a future macOS release: Apple Mail is sandboxed, which I get. But what if we had the ability to run...
