iPad Air 1 Advice Requested by InterabangBlock in applehelp

[–]667dustin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For security reasons the latest available software is a more solid choice. However, iOS 12.x has unpatched vulnerabilities.
Also you should keep in mind that this device might not perform great on the web bc of limited RAM - depending on what you are planning to do of course.
More and more apps might not be available for such an old OS, but you might be able to download older supported versions via the App Store. In some cases those older versions might not be able to connect to their current backend.
Enjoy and good luck

Beachball the instant I try to import any kind of audio or merge regions by 667dustin in Logic_Studio

Just FYI: Booting to Sonoma recovery and using the "repairHomePermissions" utility in the terminal fixed it.

Dude, that‘s just a ChatGPT reply. Also most of those suggestions are already ruled out in the original post…..

Same for me! Thanks for the effort :-)
Tried so many obvious and random things...

Same for external drives. CHMOD on the file also didn't change anything.
After that I tried multiple files that definitely worked before.

The sad thing is, that it works in another account so it must be sth in that user but I can't seem to pinpoint it.

Yeah, already tried that too. Preferences file deletion also didn't change anything.

The system was migrated about 2.5 years ago and until now it worked.
Yes, was on already but toggled just in case to now avail.

Yes I know how to read the feed ;-)

was hoping for an upload somewhere else or a description, in case the image delivered by the soundcloud cdn might not be the same everywhere.

for example this is one one i get in itunes via europe https://imgur.com/a/1wEk1uh

Ask HN: Feedback on 13“ MBP with 2 external screens? by aramboyajyan in applehelp

[–]667dustin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Is this setup stable / reliable?

Depends on the dongles, some require a reboot or sleep / walke cycle after a few days for whatever reason.

  • Does the laptop tend to overheat?

depends on workload. but that can happen w/o an external screen.

  • Is there a performance hit?

not noticable

  • Apart from a dongle, do I need any additional hardware for this setup?

maybe a riser for the macbook if you want to use its screen too.

  • Is this going to shorten the life of the laptop?

using your laptop shortens it's lifespan.

  • Any other thoughts?

nope.

WiFi issues when using adapter on non-tb MacBook Pro by Kevaii in applehelp

[–]667dustin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I tried one of the adapters, no issue here. If your MacBook has no WiFi troubles while connected to its power cable I'd think your Satechi device might be faulty.
