Handoff Not Working Between Mac and iPhone Hi, I have this handoff problem between my Mac (M1,2020) and my iPhone 14 I've tried all the techniques I've seen on Reddit, especially with the terminal so that “ClipboardSharingEnabled” is 1, but still nothing. When I copy on my iPhone and paste on my Mac, there's a loading time and then nothing…nothing sticks (see image). Someone has already had this problem ? I was going to go see the Apple technical team, but I'm using my last cartridge by asking on Reddit. Thanks ! PS: I have NordVPN,... 1 0 replies
Can I upgrade or do I need to buy something else? My wife surprised me with a MacBook Pro with Monterey os. I want to be able to use Excel on it but I need macOS version of 13 or higher on it. When I try to update the system it won’t go any higher than 12.7.6. Is there a way for me to upgrade it or do I need to return this and get a different MacBook? Thanks for any insight! 3 12 replies

How do I extract my screen time passcode? My iCloud has screen time setup and I have forgot the passcode. I don’t see the change passcode option in my screen time settings.

Are some Dynamic & Light&Dark wallpapers lost between macOS Updates? https://preview.redd.it/iain1lnvknbe1.png?width=976&format=png&auto=webp&s=dd0fed329c18d7ed3035620cf8049200d8e28d51 An oddly specific question, but I'm thinking of finally getting around to updating from Ventura to ~~Sonoma~~ Sequoia. A pre-emptive precaution: Are some of these dynamically changing wallpapers rotated off the roster in future updates? (if iPhone \[XR\] updates have taught me anything about performance and battery, it's... don't update! But i'm finally considering. Any thoughts on that while i'm here too? I'm running a Macbook Air M2.) 4 1 replies

Long ping bursts on all my macs I've been dealing with a frustrating issue for a while now and would appreciate any insights. My setup includes three Macs (Mac Mini, iMac, and MacBook Pro), a Linux machine, and an Android phone, all connecting to the same Ubiquiti access point via Wi-Fi. The problem is that all three Macs experience bursts of long ping times (ranging from >100ms to 800ms) when pinging the access point. In contrast, the Linux machine and Android phone consistently maintain excellent ping times (<10ms). Notably, the issue varies across the Macs—my MacBook... 3 5 replies

Is MacOS going backwards in terms of UI usability and efficiency? What's your feel? Hey y'all, I've been using Macs since .. gulp .. 1987. Having started my computing life with terminal based mini computers, from Day 1 the Mac UI was ***incredible***. It combined speed and usability enforced through the UI guidelines, and kept things simple. But as the years and decades have gone by, things seems to have got a lot .. messier. I'm pretty convinced that the Finder in MacOS 9 (er yeah, I mean decades ago) was actually more intuitive and easier to use than in MacOS X. The... 4 20 replies
