  • Lumon Terminal Pro in Apple's online store is a master-class on media marketing

    If they’re going to do something like that, they should make a computer that looks like the terminals from Terry Gilliam’s “Brazili”.

    I haven’t watched any Apple Tee Vee series. Have no plan to do so, either.

  • Inside Apple Music: how you can get the most out of Apple's music streaming service

    jeffharrisjeffharris
    What about the Music app for Mac? 
    They removed the ability to edit track listings in music already loaded on an iPhone that iTunes had.

    Before, in iTunes, I could easily correct spelling, or change an album name slightly on the iPhone so it would sit in the correct alphabetical order.
    For instance, some recordings from Germany will show “Symphonie Nr. 8”, when I prefer Symphony No.8.

    Now after altering the name on my Mac, I have to delete the cording from my iPhone, then reinstall it. Annoying.

  • Apple is planning to make enormous design changes to iOS 19 & macOS 16

    I feel your pain. My daughter purchased a m2 Mac Mini when it first came out out. She used it with a second hand Display until it failed. Money was tight so she went with a Samsung smart display. She ended up taking the Mini to the store and asking their tech manager to fix the display or replace it with something else. It took the manager nearly two hours of fiddling around with display settings to eventually get it setup correctly. When you connect to an Apple monitor it just automatically sets itself up but another brand needs manual settings to make it work and they are in many different places. It can be accomplished through so keep trying. 
    Odd. My MBP is connected two dual LG 4K displays and I’ve literally had no issues. I could force my Mac into a native resolution, in which case I’d have tiny everything, but that’s certainly not the default. One would have to explicitly select that display resolution. It’s also quite simple to select a non-HiDP resolution to resolve the problem.
    I bought a 4K monitor to have 4K for my CAD and 3D work and photography. 
    Mine is a new Viewsonic IPS monitor with Thunderbolt ports (VK2776T-4K).
    Nice monitor, but maybe Apple hates Viewsonic and doesn’t support their stuff?

    When I looked for an answer to UI scaling in the Apple Forums I was told to drop the resolution down to 1440p. 
    Gee, thanks Poindexter.

    As a shareholder, I wish apple would just go silent for 2 years and go 'snow leopard' on ALL of their products.
    It’s definitely time for a “Fix the Bugs” version.
    Streamlining and simplifying, too.

    The yearly “upgrade” cycle is ridiculous, too. WHY? 
    If it’s just to complicate things, then it’s a roaring success.

    I find it disruptive. I’ve actually chosen to skip versions a few times.
    As long as my bread and butter applications continue to work, why bother?
