Logitech MX keyboard useful shortcut to switch between windows and MacOs layout

I've got Logitech MX Keys S keyboard where fn key is between cmd/alt and opt/ctrl. I do use 3 different operating systems with this keyboard and for easier muscle memory I have binded my mac keys to match windows and Linux. But, the problem was with right opt. Now I learned that there is a hidden shortcut for the keyboard: * Fn+P for 3 seconds, Windows layout * Fn+O for 3 seconds, MacOS layout If you have Logi+ installed then you might want to switch off "Always keep the...

WARNING - Sequoia update may lose Keychain Secure Notes

**Warning** A week or so ago, I updated from Sonoma to Sequoia, which introduces a new Passwords app and stops Keychain Access having new Secure Notes added. For various reasons, I'm a big user of Keychain Acces Secure Notes After updating, I had a feeling that some Secure Notes were missing and others were old versions. Then I noticed that a Secure Note I know I had used a few weeks before updating was no longer present. Dug around in various backups and snapshots and found a login keychain...

It won't connect to wifi, let alone even let me fiddle with the Network preferences. It says Network Preferences Error when i try to turn my wifi on. Anything i can do?

Thunderbolt bridge between iMac Pro and M1 Mac Studio

I have been experimenting with files transfers via thunderbolt bridge between my iMac Pro and M1 Mac Studio. When I ping them using iperf3, I see a bitrate of around 20 GBits/sec. I’ve got them connected via SMB. When I copy a file from the iMac Pro, the activity monitor says it’s sending data at 4 GB/s. However, my Mac Studio is only receiving data at 1 GB/s. Sending from Mac Studio right now at 2.5 GB/s , and iMac Pro receives at 1.75 GB/s. I’ve tried rsync and...

Don't trust Photos.app to fully hide your content

When you hide an image or video on Photos.app, it gets moved to the *Hidden* folder. Then no one will be able to see it without a password. Right? Wrong. Turns out, you can go to *Pictures*, right click on the photos library, select *Show Package Contents*, and open *Originals*. Scattered in the folder hierarchy, you'll find your nudes and other spicy content among regular pictures. No password required. I'm not sure if this is common knowledge, but it was new for me. So this is just a PSA...

Is it possible to enable extended preloading in Safari, similar to what’s available in Chrome?

Google Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers become significantly faster when Extended Preloading is enabled in the settings. I know Safari has basic preloading, like for top hit results, but are there any flags or settings to make it as robust as Chrome? And in case there are, does preloading work with Private Relay enabled, or does it need to be turned off for preloading to function properly?
