If this is on purpose, this Mac is going back tomorrow... What I wanted to do anyway because of the WWDC rumors, but now...

    Require simple help with MacPostFactor installing Mav's on Late 2007 MacBook

    Few days ago I successfully installed Mountain Lion 10.8.4 on a late 2007 MacBook. Thought it would solve my issues with my phone no longer syncing in iTunes. Turns out iOS 10 requires iTunes 12.5 and up, which is supported only on Yosemite and later OS's, so I'm going up to that. Now I'm...

    How to transfer a 500GB Time Machine folder

    Hey all, first post! A few months ago I bought a 2TB RAID drive to be my new Time Machine home. I tried to transfer my Time Machine backups from my old drive and it kept stalling out.
