  • How to prepare for macOS Catalina by organizing your iTunes library

    visualzonevisualzone
    Or we won't update because we like our music,TV, movies, etc. all in one place. Some think iTunes is one big cluster F but have some of them even used the new separate Apps? Music is OK but the TV app is a clutter piece of S. Also, I don't like the fact that Apple has to authorize everything to run on YOUR computer. I'll update my iPad, AppleTV, AppleWatch and iPhone but with Catalina on my iMac, not a chance.

    So... MicrosoftOutsider now?

    With all due respect to Mike (whose content is generally great), there are dozens of places that already provide review content like this.

    I am forced to use a Windows machine at work.  AI used to be my escape from all that.
    Exactly! I might have to use it at work but I don't need no stinking Microsoft Windows at home.

  • Tips: Five different ways how to find your hidden files on macOS

    Sorry Greg for posting the same thing. I was too quick to reply before reading all the posts.

    First, the ~ in the path doesn't specify "this Mac" it specifies the current user's home folder, wherever that may be. 

    But, there is a much easier way to get to the library. Click the Go menu in the finder, press Option, the Library appears in the list, click it.

    By the way, the Command-Shift-Period shortcut is an excellent tip.

  • Class action claims all Apple Watches are defective

    visualzonevisualzone
    Happened to my series 0 after I moved to the Philippines; a very hot and humid environment.  The battery swelled and popped the screen off.  It was one of the very first manufactured, received on that day back when everyone was going unboxing videos.  Was that April 24, 2015?  Seem to recall that as the date.  I drive a series 2 Nike Edition now.  Love it.  Nothing lasts forever. 
    I too have the Series 2 Nike with the black/volt band and love it. Only some scratches which is just normal wear and tear. I've bought two more bands to go with it since. One the Milanese band and another with a buckle.

    Stands to reason.  Hard to believe Jobs would approve of this joke of a product
    At some point in the future people won’t carry a wallet or keys.  What product would you suggest incorporate those capabilities?  Today people swipe a fob or keycard to gain access to their workplace.  Are you suggesting we take out our phones to swipe instead, or would it be more natural and convenient to swipe a watch past the reader?  Same for paying for things, as we already see.  The Watch will take on many such convenience tasks.  Even when streaming music from my iPhone through wired earbuds while on a plane or public transport, I find it super convenient to leave the phone in my lap or pocket while using the watch to pause or reduce volume when a travel companion wants to say something or have a short verbal exchange.  Beats frequently pulling an earbud out.  Adjusting lights, temperature, accessing a hotel room while toting bags, checking the weather forecast, etc.  Many tasks are more convenient with a wrist-worn computer.  Even checking the time.

    I bought the Apple Watch Series 2 Nike Black/Volt and love it. It's now a year old and I have 3 bands to use with it. I bought it mainly to use to answer the phone without taking the iPhone out of my pocket when it's winter time. I sure found out I use it for a lot more things than just that. The only Apple product I love more is my fully loaded 27" late 2014 5K iMac and I do have lots of Apple products to choose from. B)
