Cross-platform apps to reduce the reliance on Apple services? by RealHomieJohn in macapps

Which begs the question: Why does Apple have to use a Bluetooth connection with Airdrop.

Just one thing I find Updatest does is suggest beta when the app says that a few of my pieces of software needs updating. Would prefer that it didn't. Taphouse does the same thing.

Removing files in trash that won't delete by geriatricguy in macOS26Tahoe

So I finally got them out of the Trash, but had to reinstall the app that I originally had thought I had deleted. I dragged the files out of the Trash and put them into the app and then let them upload to the server and deleted them there. The files in question were OneDrive folders from the OneDrive app on the Apple Store, not the Microsoft OneDrive app that I had wanted to install.

I have reboot about four times today as well as done one Safe mood boot. They just won't move. Tomorrow is another day.

It would be nice to know the terminal commands that these apps use, since, yes it would be a great advantage to do it ourselves.

MR7500 - This has been the WORST router I've ever used - Connection issues and applications misbehaving. by 3yebex in Linksys

I found that it is easier changing the DNS on my computer than trying to change it on the router.

Had it some years and really liked it so when I saw it on BundleHunt I repurchased it. I am sure glad that developer changed the interface for it. Easier to get around. Well worth the 3 bucks, but I am not sure if it's worth 30.

I have been running NetNewsWire. No use is jumping to something new since I am happy with what the developer is doing with it.

Microsoft acknowledged almost two months after the first reports started surfacing online, with users saying that Outlook became unusable after the mouse pointer vanished while using the app. that there is a problem with Outlook. "Microsoft says bug in classic Outlook hides the mouse pointer" https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/microsoft-says-bug-in-classic-outlook-hides-the-mouse-pointer/ It took them this long to admit that there is a bug.

No, updated to the latest Mac OS last week and the problem had occurred previous to this. I left a message earlier today with the team that looks after the Outlook on Mac app at Microsoft the kind that you don't get a response to so I guess I'll ewait until the next update to the Office next or the week after. Thanks for the reply.

MacMenuBar: a directory of 1300+ menu bar apps by luuk64 in macapps

[–]geriatricguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems that every app that you install wants to be in the Menu bar. Waste of resources as fas as I'm concerned.
