    how old is your iMac?

    target display mode got discontinued so if it's not old enough or if you updated the OS, that feature won't work regardless

    Anyone have any idea where to go for this?

    In a thread when I click on a tweet, IG, Reddit, etc….. my app used to open corresponding to what I clicked. Just a few days ago everything just started opening in another browser window. Any idea how to change this? I’ve struck out like 7 times.

    This was happening to me a few weeks ago. Not sure what happened but it seemed to randomly fix itself.

    For a tweet, tap and hold on the blue bird in the top right. It will give you the “open in” options.

    If you only get a copy option, try again.

    I'm typing this on my 2013 13 inch Air. I'm amazed its lasted this long. I view everyday as a blessing.

    I'm considering buying a Magic Mouse, any care to share their experiences with one with me?

    New green iPhone. Forest for base, alpine for Pro.

    new SE, rounded edges, home button, 5G, $429

    iPad Air with M1, center stage, 5G, bla bla

    new M1 chip, Ultra… which I think is just two M1 Max’s fused together. 8x faster than M1, and I fucking love my base M1 MacBook. Imagine. 128gb unified memory.

    New desktop option, Mac Studio, looks like a iMac mini about four times taller than the mini. 3.7” tall. Fits well on the desk. Comes with Max ($1999), upgradeable to Ultra ($3,999, fuuuck). Meant to pair with 27” 5K resolution Studio Display ($1599), looks more or less like the newer iMacs. Center Stage webcam akin to the iPad. Spatial Audio with little subwoofers and tweeters.

    NO new iMac mini release, fuckers.

    Is there a site, besides Ebay that's reliable where I can find an old ipod nano or mini that's in good condition?

    edit - they have some on amazon. Who know.

    edit edit edit - $150 seems like a lot for a mp3 player that cant do anything else. This is stupid

    I want to get one for my mom. She uses it exclusively for audiobooks. She refuses to use her phone for it. So she DLs them from overdrive, imports them into iTunes and loads them on her ipod. Her nano that is who knows how old is on the fritz.

    She's having a toddler like fit because Im trying to explain to her there is no reason not to use her phone, but she likes having them separate. I will end up buying her one, but just out of principle those prices seem ridiculous.

    I did a trade-in with my Apple Watch 5 when I bought the new one. They sent the trade-in kit and I mailed it like normal using this Fedex drop-off location at a local store. For some reason it then came right back to my house so I'm wondering if the worker scanned the wrong barcode or something. I went back and forth with Apple Support for a few days and they were supposed to send me a new one. That was a week ago and I still haven't received the new trade-in kit......but I just checked my Apple Card account and they credited me the full amount I was quoted for the trade-in

    Now I have to decide if I should do the honest thing or try to make a few hundred bucks on Ebay.

    So my phone just quit working Tuesday morning. I woke up from the storm and went to check it and its just a blinking apple icon. Tried charging it and tried the reset and nothing. So I guess they're just killing phones or wtf? I would have been screwed if I hadn't have woken up and checked because I would have missed my alarm. It's still not working but not sure I wanna buy another phone that's just going to stop working while sitting on a nightstand.

    Any advice on a dual screen Mac setup at work? Finally able to get rid of my PC and go all Apple ecosystem to make things easier.

    It's looking like a Mac mini and then a couple 4k Dell monitors would be the best bang for the buck and look rather than an iMac and a Studio Display since I don't do any video editing. Don't need a new laptop as I just bought a new iPad last year for travel.
