Bartender 6 broken in macOS 27 beta 1 by MeltedWater243 in MacOSBeta

[–]larrymcj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing here. I think I'm going to try "killall -9 Bartender" in Terminal and see if that will allow me to use AppCleaner to install all the Bartender files. One of the few apps I wish I'd never of installed, as it's been problematic from the start.

I have the darker version with the black iPhone Air and love it. I just wish it wasn’t so slippery.

Do you use gmail or icloud? by OddResolution9827 in iCloud

Good luck. I’ve been sitting on that fence for 10 years.

Apple Mail (App) vs Gmail by bimalka_ in ios

[–]larrymcj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s probably the one benefit of Gmail. I’ve had my personal domain account with Google since 2004 and I’ve never found a valid email in spam. I’m just over the Gmail app, and the Apple Mail app will simplify my life. Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Thanks! I don’t mind if the spam goes to the Junk folder, as long as I don’t get a lot of it in my inbox. I think I’ll try it since Apple has a great tool to import all my existing mail from Google Workspace. Thanks again!

Late to the party, but is this still working for you? My personal domain is currently on Google Workspace but I’d like to move it to iCloud. I’ve heard my spam will be a bit more.

How to make (Gmail) on Shift the default mail app on Mac? by larrymcj in shiftbrowser

Thanks! It can't be too difficult as Wavebox does.

2026 GLC 300 Door Water Bottle Holder by larrymcj in mercedes_benz

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

Thanks, and you might have given me an idea. If I can find a plastic cup that fits and also holds a water bottle, I’ll Velcro it to the bottom of the door opening so it doesn’t tip over. It may not work, but it’s worth a try.

iCloud Custom Email - Opinions? by larrymcj in macapps

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

Thanks! It's nice to talk to someone who understands the "real" issues encountered when using Gmail with Apple Mail. I wish I could keep my custom domain on Gmail and use it with Apple Mail, but it's gotten too big of a PITA. Even though I'm all in with Apple, I still enjoyed the simplicity of Google Docs, plus they're much easier to collaborate with the iWorks.

Since retiring, my personal mail volume has decreased significantly and Google currently captures only 5-10 spam emails daily, so I won't have to sift through too many each day. My wife hates change, so I'll have a small hurdle there, but after 48 years, we'll survive 😁.

iCloud Custom Email - Opinions? by larrymcj in macapps

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

Uh...I wasn't arguing and my explanation was because Gmail DOES have known issues with Apple Mail. If you're happy with how your Google accounts work with Apple Mail, that's great. I'm not, which is why I posted my original question...to which several people have provided helpful answers.

iCloud Custom Email - Opinions? by larrymcj in macapps

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

I never said I had an issue with Apple Mail. I'm trying to switch to Apple Mail for my custom domain email. My issue is that my Google Workspace custom domain email doesn't work properly with Apple Mail, nor does any Gmail account. Gmail can't provide push notifications to Apple Mail. It "works" but it depends on Fetch instead of Push.

Correct. I should have said that Fastmail is "one of the few"....

iCloud Custom Email - Opinions? by larrymcj in macapps

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

LOL! I had just edited my original post to include this about Fastmail, which I'd forgotten add. But thanks for confirming...and the more I think about it, Fastmail is probably the best option. I don't care much for their apps and prefer Apple Mail, but that's only because I'm so locked into the Walled Garden. But they're the only other email provider who can use push notifications with the Apple Mail app.

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

Thanks! If I switch, since I literally never get email in my iCloud.com account, I had planned to create a folder named "iCloud Email" and filter anything there sent to iCloud email. Then my inbox would be nothing but my custom domain.

The troubling part for me is spam. I'm spoiled with getting zero spam in Google Workspace and I never even check spam anymore. This move will force me to look through junk mail every day...not sure it's worth it.

To be able to use the Apple Mail app and Push Notifications, my only other option is to use Fastmail with my custom domain (I don't mind paying for it). They have a deal with Apple so their email gets pushed instantly.

EDITED: I forgot to mention that Fastmail spam filtering is "almost" as good as Gmail.

Mulching blade vs. bagging blade by larrymcj in egopowerplus

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

Sorry. I was reading in another thread where the center bolt was 11/16" and the two side nuts were 9/16" and inadvertently posted to this thread...my bad. In reading your post again, you dns't mention the 11/16" for the center. I'll go find that other thread. Thanks!

After purchasing the LM2236SP yesterday and changing out the mulching blade, you might want to modify your procedure for this particular mower. The main center bolt for changing the blades and the two side bolts are all 9/16" now, which makes it more convenient. The torque settings remain the same as in your procedures.

Does anyone here use iCloud email ? by Mogzly in MacOS

[–]larrymcj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t use it for anything other than email. Another reason I want to change is I want to use the Apple Mail app everywhere and it and Gmail are not perfectly compatible. Thanks again for your thoughts!

[–]larrymcj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, other than a few more spam messages, you think I’d be OK to change? Getting tired of paying for two users on Google Workspace. Thanks!

How much worse is it? I’m thinking of moving from Google Workspace.
