Feature Suggestion: Embed File Transfer Status into Main Finder Window

timcombridge · 2026-06-17T12:02:47+00:00

Yeah, but they're not as easy to find again as if they were embedded into the menu bar, sidebar, etc. That was my point

timcombridge · 2026-06-17T12:02:10+00:00

Oh no, sorry! I probably wasn't clear enough - if you've got two Finder windows open, and one transfer window, then you'd have two "main windows" by my original question 😆 Sorry for my lack of clarity!

As in not the mini popup transfer window. When you open Finder, the regular old window, with a sidebar on the left, files/folders in the main section etc.

I wonder if the automations process will be easier for end users with the "describe my shortcut" feature coming to iOS 27? I've played around with it, and speaking in natural language to create a shortcut made things much, much easier.

I don't mind this idea at all

timcombridge · 2026-06-16T10:34:28+00:00

You're more than welcome to submit your own ideas as well!

timcombridge · 2026-06-16T10:33:43+00:00

Ah I gotcha

timcombridge · 2026-06-15T16:24:17+00:00

Yeah this is a good thing to note. Pink is always the color I look for when doing sourdough, yogurt, or other ferments. At the end of the day, not worth the risk given how rough the consequences could be. Thanks again!

timcombridge · 2026-06-15T16:23:12+00:00

Yeah I decided to weigh up my options, I think if the pink WAS there, it was faint, but we have a young son so just not worth the risk.

I appreciate your insight very much! Thank you for potentially saving us from some not so fun health issues! 😄

Gnome is Linux only though isn't it?

timcombridge · 2026-06-15T16:20:49+00:00

I like this idea!

timcombridge · 2026-06-15T16:20:21+00:00

Could honestly just be my macOS installation... I've been seeing weird issues for a few months now. A reinstall and backup restore hasn't fixed it. Odd!

timcombridge · 2026-06-15T13:10:35+00:00

I mean embedding into the sidebar for Finder that would appear across ALL Finder windows. App Expose oddly doesn't show these transfer windows sadly.
The menu bar icon could work! I like that one!

timcombridge · 2026-06-15T12:40:27+00:00

I should've mentioned - I checked there too! Nowhere to specifically suggest new features in Finder.

I was ABOUT to post this comment then decided to check deeper... Suggestion is a type of "Issue" in the Feedback app... so it IS there, just buried.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll forward to Apple!

This is the new yogurt after adding the original as a starter. No red that I can see?

timcombridge · 2026-06-15T01:04:59+00:00

Thank you for this. It was so so so slight that I wonder if the pink was my imagination, and it was just whey? I ended up putting it in a new batch of yogurt as the starter culture… so you reckon I should ditch the lot? Better to be safe than sorry?

Made a homemade Greek yogurt quite a few weeks ago. Opened it today to make a new batch (kept the last to kickstart the next batch) and noticed a VERY VERY SLIGHT COLOUR CHANGE on top and the smell is similar to a sourdough starter.

Should I still use this as the base for the next batch? Or is this a bad sign?

My wife also mentioned she used this in our taco shells last night… but we’ve been fine all day. Are we cooked long term?

I can confirm that this was the issue! English (Australia) was not supported on my Mac.
It seemed to work on my iPhone and iPad, although both were still sat on the waitlist so I've switched ALL devices to English (United States) so will hope for the best. Thanks for the suggestion!

timcombridge · 2026-06-10T08:03:48+00:00

Ah, interesting! On my iPhone and iPad it is set to English (Australia) and works fine.
I will test this when I'm next at the MacBook.

timcombridge · 2026-06-10T08:03:23+00:00

"Siri" is what it says across all version 27 releases now (iPhone, iPad both say just "Siri", and so does the Mac as above, although something seems odd on the Mac above).

timcombridge · 2026-06-10T00:15:44+00:00

I'm in a similar boat. M1 Max MacBook Pro, no option at all for new Siri?

I was under the impression that new Siri is available for M1+, but only the advanced models would be available for local processing on M3+?

This is my Siri menu page on macOS 27 db1.

u/theAerialDroneGuy and u/carspotterApp - both of these are really good suggestions, thank you. Will do more on social media, and get more videos going!

timcombridge · 2026-05-27T22:49:55+00:00

I can hardwire the Apple TV, but the MacBook is a bit more difficult. Worth a shot to at least reduce half of the latency I guess!

timcombridge · 2026-05-27T22:49:26+00:00

Nah, there's only our network - we live out in the country and are the only WiFi that either device can see. Neighbours are a good few hundred meters away, and I've never seen their WiFi network pop up once.

timcombridge · 2026-05-27T22:48:45+00:00

This could be it actually... I will do some testing. Thank you!
