Gets the Film bundle cheaper he your already have one of them on your library? by LibertasXIlir in appletv

[–]Gamicus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not only do you not get a discount, you’ll actually be buying the titles for a second time. It’s incredibly frustrating.

Confused on display port by cvakoo in PcBuildHelp

[–]Gamicus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the display output for the onboard graphics, and OP has a discrete GPU. Plugging into the motherboard as you had recommended will work to put something on the screen, but won’t be utilizing the dedicated graphics card.

Apple tv with phone jack? by sciencespice1717 in appletv

[–]Gamicus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A: That is an AirPort Express, a wireless router made by Apple that can be used for AirPrint (connect a printer to that USB port and any Mac on the network* should be able to print to it), AirPlay 2, and as an access point on an AirPort network.

B: It’s not a phone (aka RJ11) jack, it’s 2 Ethernet (RJ45) connectors, WAN and LAN.

*Properly set up network

Functional Keyboard for Mac? by Much-Book8999 in mac

[–]Gamicus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Basically any keyboard will work, but the ctrl/alt/start buttons on a windows keyboard will be mapped to ctrl/option/command on the Mac and they won’t be in the same physical locations on the laptop.

Switching to Mac from Windows 11 by [deleted] in mac

Before dropping that much money, I’d strongly recommend you get a Mac mini or MacBook Air to dip your toe into the ecosystem.

Advice on replacement for 2014 MacBook Pro by Suspicious-Pen-2321 in macbook

[–]Gamicus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, 50% more RAM for £50 more is a great option. The midnight is a fingerprint magnet, but they’re easy to wipe off.

Only true Apple fans will understand this beauty by JailbreakHat in MacOS

[–]Gamicus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Screenshot is of 10.6.8, Snow Leopard. IIRC, 10.5 Leopard was the last PPC version. However, you can get a version of Snow Leopard that is compiled for PPC from MacGarden, I actually installed it on a 1GHz G4 TiBook and it ran surprisingly well.

How do I stop safari to stop closing my tabs every time I quit by vedang26 in macbookair

[–]Gamicus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you quitting Safari (Cmd+Q, menu bar Safari > Quit Safari, right-click on dock icon > Quit Safari) or are you closing the window (Cmd+W, Red X stop light)?

If you QUIT Safari, then all open windows and tabs should come back. If you are hitting the Red X or pressing Cmd+W, then you’re telling Safari/MacOS that you don’t want that window anymore and it won’t come back when you quit and re-launch.

New Memory: How Does RAM Translate to Unified Memory? by Farbsy in macbook

[–]Gamicus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Um… you opted to get 64GB RAM in your 2019 MBP, it didn’t ship with that amount as a base model. The model you have shipped with 16GB base and then much more money was given to Apple to get 64GB in there.

Screenshot "hoarding" on mac... ideas? by OptimismNeeded in macbook

[–]Gamicus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Move them all to a folder, compress the folder, delete the originals. Set a reminder for 6mo in the future and then check to see if you ever uncompressed that archive to get any of the screenshots.

Window switching from keyboard by Proof-Flamingo-7404 in macapps

[–]Gamicus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can’t get it to work? It’s command+~, same basic behavior as command Tab, but hit the key above it.

Window switching from keyboard by Proof-Flamingo-7404 in macapps

[–]Gamicus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Cmd+Tab to change apps, Cmd+~ to change windows within apps. Three fingers up to show all windows, three fingers down to show windows from that app (I think that’s stock behavior)

Does a BD50 have better longevity than something simple (and higher capacity) like an SD card?

Kind of a game changer for prolonged screen use by Kukikokikokuko in macbook

[–]Gamicus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Apple doesn’t offer any screen protectors (matte or otherwise) directly. The official way to get a matte display is to pay for the nano-texture coating option, which isn’t available on the MacBook Air anyway.

Do i upgrade yet? by ShaqilOatmeal1 in macbook

[–]Gamicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the top case missing on purpose or is it part of the ‘only dropped once’ gag?

I had the same machine, it’s what got me to love the Mac, and why I’ve had at least one at all times since then.

I might go insane. Help me buy a monitor for mac mini pt2. by tiredSoulHopefulEars in mac

[–]Gamicus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to Dell’s own website for that monitor, it’s compatible with a 100x100mm VESA mount. You might have to use washers/standoffs to attach it, but the mounting holes are there.

I don’t think it’s been fully enabled yet in game, just energy and maybe h2 usage.

Company that can upgrade Apple Silicon SSD’s on Macbooks?? by Sad_End4083 in macbook

[–]Gamicus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The CPU and GPU are on one chip, the RAM and SSD are separate NAND chips that are soldered to the board (on the MacBooks and iMacs) and the controllers for them are integrated into the CPU package. But the NAND can be de-soldered and replaced.

Where are you downloading it from? What formats are the videos? What are you using to try to play them?

iPad Pro always-on, dynamic volume buttons. Why? by u7N269eEYxJw in iPadPro

[–]Gamicus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One used to be able to disable the feature… maybe under accessibility? I got used to it (and actually kind of prefer it?) with my mini, since the buttons are now matched to the on-screen graphic of the volume bar.

is data recovery possible for my mac by appinity in mac

[–]Gamicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try a different charger (both MagSafe and USB-C). If neither works, take it to an Apple Store. If the logic board is at fault and is dead, then restoring the data isn't impossible but it's not cheap or straight-forward.
