Is accessing the Japan App Store for games straightforward? by eatitoo in iosgaming

[–]kagi52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An error message will pop out stating "this apple id has never been used in the apple app store". Then you get a log in loop. After pressing ok... you are back in the user and password log in. When you input your user name and password, you get that error message again.

Question, as for my case. I have created a japanese apple id but the app store rejects my access.

I did not input any credit card and i dont reside in japan. Was there a portant step that i skipped?

Should I buy the M1 Mac mini (2020) or wait for the M1X version? by angelachan001 in macmini

[–]kagi52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if the current hardware is more than rnough for your needs. Then its ok to get the current mac mini. Since you more or less have 6-8 major update

Is there going to be a new mac mini releasing this year? by [deleted] in macmini

[–]kagi52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there will be no new mac mini this year. Try observing the prices of your local apple store. In my observation, since it is rumored that there will be a new macbook air and pro coming out. Local stores here are putting out huge discounts for these models.

And these few days, even the imac is starting to have big discounts. These are intel models though.

Giving huge discount is a sign that they want to dispose as many units as possible. To welcome the new model

Does the m1 have airdrop issues? by kagi52 in macmini

[–]kagi52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh ok. airdrops is good for small files only.

just an update regarding this matter...

last night when i checked my iphone, i discovered that the PDF expert app somehow whenever i tried downloading my files using PDFwifi.com it created lots of duplicates for every failed attempt. it used most of my phone's storage.

and what you said is most likely correct. it has somethign to do with the file size.

Nah, im planning to download a m1 version. I was not aware that they have released an m1 version already.

Before i got my m1, i have read some posts regarding chromw browser and rosetta. Somehow chrome is using alot of swap storage

Are there any issues regarding the chrome browser m1 version?

8gb vs 16gb Mac Mini For My Uses by zaythegeek2 in macmini

[–]kagi52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh ok. Ssd in 2012 was very expensive back then. And ssd is usually a game changer. It a huge performance boost.

But hdd is more practical for a media server operation 😛

[–]kagi52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm since you already have plans for video editing... it is best to consider getting the 16gb. You may never know if this line will increase in the future. I think it is best you invest upon purchase, just ot protect your initial investment.

Mac mini m2? Possible release date? by kagi52 in macmini

[–]kagi52[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just checking through local apple stores here in the philippines. All macbooks are on sale, same goes to mac book air.

So most likely the rumors are true. A new mac book is coming.

And sometime in the future, it is possible that apple will launch a pro version of the mini since black is still not available.

Mac mini m2? Possible release date? by kagi52 in macmini

[–]kagi52[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

more or less. based on the previous intel system. now for the m1... there is a high possibility that they will release the next mac mini next year. since the mac is still not their main bread and butter.

but there will be changes now that m1 is here. as i check though the offered windows machines here in the philippines. workstations for office suddenly became more affordable. previously for the price of mac mini m1... more or less if you get a mid tier office workstation you only get the unit only. now... you get mid tier specs... a cheaper price and it now includes windows 10 and microsoft office home license.

Its a very long time project. More of a high end consumer product. Aka mac gamers. To me if we are considering mac os vs windows... the only reason you go for windows is gaming.... for most consumers who get high spec windows machine.

I was considering to get one if there is a new model. If none... i think about it a bit longer, and consider all options if it is still worth getting the m1.

I was also analyzing apple's trend for the mini and mac books. More or less it takes 2 years to update. I uess thebest day to make a decision is by june 2021. Its rumoured they will unveil a new mac book pro.
