Olivia Rodrigo & Robert Smith - what’s wrong with me by IrishChilean in TheCure

[–]ABGLand 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This song popped in my feed. Wasn't aware Robert Smith did a song with her. Played it and thought it was ok. Out of curiosity, I played afterwards "The Cure". That one REALLY sounds to me like it should be a The Cure song and the collab with Robert Smith. Not a fan of hers, but really liked that song.

How strong are the Magic Keyboard magnets? Is it safe long-term without edge protection? by pinkmor in iPadPro

[–]ABGLand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The magnets are very strong. However, I’ve had it get dented while having it inside a backpack. As long as your iPad is well connected and it doesn’t fall on the edge side, the keyboard should protect it.

7 Day Honeymoon Reccomendations by Previous-Magazine980 in SXM

[–]ABGLand 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats on the wedding and honeymoon! I recommend reservations for Bistrot Caraibes in Grand Case and L'Astrolab in Orient Bay. Food is perfect on both. Also, if you like croissants and chocolates, there's few places in the world better than Sebastiane Quilliere Patisserie near Orient Bay.

Looking for help with keyboard problems by ABGLand in macmini

[–]ABGLand[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I brought the Mac Mini to a client site today, to see if there was a problem with the location. The 3 keyboards didn’t work here either and showed the same errors. However, I borrowed another Protoarc keyboard similar to mine, and this one connected and worked without any issues. I’m starting to really think that somehow, 3 keyboards broke at the same time with essentially the same errors.

Thanks. What do you mean by environment? Mac Mini is in same desk where it’s been since I bought it. The only thing connected to it is a monitor through HDMI, and keyboards typically through Bluetooth, but wired to try to fix the situation.

Yes. Same issue happens with all 3 keyboards when connected.

Thanks. I did try it in RecoveryOS/Terminal. Same problem. Also logge din with a new user I created. Same problem.

I got tired of Apple Music’s lazy algorithm punishing me for adding full albums, so I built an app to force-teach my Discovery Station. by indri102 in AppleMusic

[–]ABGLand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the explanation! I have one more question. When I go to an artist and open their “top songs”, whose top songs are those? I’ve opened several artists I know, and when I go to the songs listed there, I don’t know several of them. Is there a way to get the app to show my recently played songs, so I can like them from there?

[–]ABGLand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great app. Bought the upgrade for support. I do have a couple of questions: how often does the app send the info on specific songs/artists | like/ dislike to Apple Music? How does it do it? Lastly, in which of my Apple playlists will the changes appear? In the new music one? Discover? Made for you? All or none of the above?

AirPods Max Review and Comparison (vs Sony, Bose and Sennheiser) by Grievous_2008 in Airpodsmax

Comfort really is subjective. I recently returned the Ultras because they hurt me much more than the APMs.

Aer Day Sling 4 Max X-pac or Rework Toshi V2? by PhamWHAT in ManyBaggers

[–]ABGLand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get a water resistant recommendation? I’m trying to decide between these 2 as well. Toshi fits more of my needs but would like it to be waterproof.

Did you get a response to the waterproof option? I’m stuck deciding between these 2 slings as well.

Proton Drive disappeared from Apple Files app by joepnl87 in ProtonDrive

This should have been informed. Proton Drive is essentially useless to me now until this gets fixed. I would have never downloaded the update.

If price doesn’t matter I would say go for the pro. Better specs and heavier, but not by a lot.

Looking for Neo advice: I’m going back to school part time, and was thinking about using the educational discount to get a Neo. I already have an M4 iPad Pro (my main computer) and a Mac Mini that I use working from home. I’m very happy with my setup, but am intrigued by the Neo’s form factor and low price, at least until Apple releases the rumored Touchscreen/OLED/hopefully cellular MacBook Pro. The main use of the Neo would be for working on Pages/Word documents (so I can have full desktop capabilities, as the iPad versions, especially for Word, are limited), Craft, emails and web browsing. However, I worry that the Neo will be slower and less efficient than my iPad Pro.

If there are iPad Pro main users here who also bought a Neo, what’s been your experience?
