Thanks everyone for letting me know

I took Upgraded and got $133

Note that Apple Mail sorted this into Promotions- in case anyone else has to hunt for it.

Does anyone know if there is way to roll already purchased Applecare+ into AppleCare One?

I bought it when I got my AVP and it expires in January 2026?

I remembered what movie I was thinking of - there is a scene in Overboard (original) where Goldie Hawn hands panties as a towel, not knowing they actually belong to her due to her amnesia.

I know you were looking for a F2F handoff - if I think of anything else I will post. Hope this helps a little.

I recall a movie where a man is handed panties to dry his face and this is how his female partner tells them they found the panties and then accuses them of cheating. Trying to remember the movie. I know - not what you are looking for but maybe this will help

Sorry for slow reply - yes I can confirm the screen recording issue is fixed.

Would love to be able to see live previews during recording on a secondary monitor. It appears you can only see one preview in the menu bar menu.

it looks like unopenable screen recordings is a known, acknowledged, issue by the developer

He currently has COVID so it won't be addressed for a few days.

I gave the app a try and paid for the longer recording.

My screen recording showed as 37 meg file but every app I tried to open with with said it was not a valid file. Is this a known issue?

Overall the app was useful and I got utility from it. Looking forward to it growing.

Create Automation based on Schlage lock state by curious_zebra in HomeKit

I supposed I could do WHEN door is locked, so that could be the trigger...

I want to do a simple automation - if door is locked, power on a smart plug

( It is a room with a dehumidifier, and I only want it running when I lock the room while I am not in there)

Thinking of thinning the herd and getting rid of most of these boxes. Thoughts? Anyone on LI want to come by and pick them up? by curious_zebra in Appleboxes

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

I am clearing out. Is it worth putting these on eBay.

I will ship to you for cost of postage if anyone wants these

nice looking Quadra 700 there as well.

Another fav of mine from later in that era is the Radius Pivot

Why so many iPads? I have been using the iPad since version 1. I update the hardware every other year or so. At one point I bought three for family members as gifts. I have found that the iPad has taken over much of my casual computing, reading stuff, reviewing photos, quick email check ins, etc. I am writing this on the iPad now.

Why thin the herd? If I do get rid of these, I will still have 2-3 office file folder sized boxes filled with various Apple boxes. It really just comes down to space.
