How to check if your Mac apps are Intel or Apple Silicon code
stevedownunder said:I'd like a utility that'll scan for old bits of code left behind by old apps which have long since been deleted, or have left processes which are chugging along the background which are not of any use and eating up resources.
I've used appcleaner to remove apps for a while but I don't want to do a full rebuild and reinstall everything due to settings, some dev tooling etc.
I've moved recently from Intel MBP to M4 MBP using Migration Assistant but I've brought along a bunch of obsolete cruft
Anyone have any ideas? -
Time Machine's Time Capsule support ends with macOS 27
maury markowitz said:Well then, this is the time to ask:
There are two features of my TC that I think I would like to keep.
One is the automatic TimeMachine support, but I understand many routers do that now?
The other is, and I don't know what the name is, the feature that pretends to be my Mac when my Mac is sleeping. This features allows, say, my AppleTV to "see" the content on my machine - movies and shows - and when I select it it wakes up my Mac.
Is there any brand-name 3rd party routers that offer both that I should be looking at? -
Hands on: Apple's USB-C accessories leave us wanting more
programmer said:So... radical question here: if these keyboards are plugged in, do they use USB to communicate or are they still bluetooth? They're going to be useless to me if they still use BT when plugged in. -
A clever hack fixes the new Mac mini power button's awkward location
As someone accustomed to using a Studio Display with a closed up 14" MacBook Pro (sitting in an aluminum stand), this new Mac Mini's power button is actually in a MORE convenient location haha. It's not an issue in my use case as the MacBook Pro pretty much stays on in standby all the time... But every once in a while if she needs a manual power cycle I have to take it outta the stand, open it up and slap that TouchID button... Something that is actually more involved than reaching under the back edge of the new Mini I wager. I would imagine the biggest hassle situation would be cases where the Mac mini is bolted down, like in a security enclosure, that doesn't allow it to be lifted up at all which would make it difficult to hit that button. Or, is it possible to set the Mini to boot up automatically on power restoration? Because if that is the case, one could simply unplug and plug it back in to effectively do the same thing. -
New MacBook Pro arrives with M4 Pro, M4 Max, and a black colorway
chromafox said:Weren't the previous Macbook Pro's released in Space Black already? What am I overlooking here? There were all the comparisons between the pro black and the air midnight black/blue...
