Real Time Storage Replication on Mac Hello, I have a video playback application (Mitti), that I will be running on a redundant pair of Mac minis. Does anyone know of an application that would allow for high speed, local folder replication between a pair of Macs? We would be running a 10 gig network, and would like a single folder (containing the media assets for playback) to maintain sync between the two devices. Just to be clear: we aren't talking cloud sync here....this needs to be local and low latency. 1 3 replies
“Remind me” feature on iOS and MacOS don’t sync As the title says I’ve recently started using the remind me feature to plan follow ups for my mails on my Mac. Today I just noticed that these reminders aren’t synced to my iOS device. So here’s my question: Am I being stupid and not using this feature correctly, or is it just not possible? 1 2 replies
unknown process "OSLogService" constantly using 100% percent CPU [[solved -- see comments]] I've recently noticed that my battery has been dying pretty quickly and my laptop is getting supper hot even though I'm doing "regular" work. I noticed a process called `OSLogService` that's using 100% CPU constantly. I couldn't find much information about this process online. Found [this reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/1fwjhom/here_it_is_macos_1501/lsi264p/) claiming something similar. The process runs constantly and restarts even if I kill it. It runs even if I'm not actively running any process, although I have some corporate mandatory software always running on my machine, such... 4 1 replies
How do you represent the “Return” or the ”Enter” or the ⏎ key? A simple question blows up in a good way. We can talk about the words "Return" and "Enter", or we can look at its icons, or we can incorporate both words or icons in our discussions, and there's even multiple ways manufacturers have represented the Return or Enter keys that are on a keyboard. Even the fact that some will call it an Enter key while others call it a Return key splits camps. **Here's my bottom line, though. After reading this, respond with an answer that has the... 4 5 replies
Add to Calendar "Action"(?) interfering with text editing and cursor placement One of the most frustrating things about Apple, computers and tech in general, is when you can't find the answer to an ongoing issue, firstly because you don't even know the "name" of the issue to be able to search for it! Secondly, once you have the name, will you find a solution? – or will you be stumped because no relevant information exists or because of dumb luck and your search comes up empty!! I am currently in the FIRST frustration with an issue that seems to be... 3 1 replies
Migrating from 2 old to 1 new Mac, bringing only 2 of 4 profile/accounts Bought a new MacBook Air M3 256GB, that will ultimately replace two older Macs, for two people to share. Unsure how best to migrate accounts from our old Macs, which are: 1) MacBook Pro (Mid 2014) with OS Catalina 10.15.7. It has 3 profile/login accounts, 1 being essential (person X), the other two not essential but would like to retain copies of their files/photos in an external drive, and selectively pull those files/photos into newest Mac later. This machine’s drive space is is essentially maxed out. 2) MacBook Air... 4 1 replies
Others cant hear me on FaceTime Howdy all, So this is a bit of an odd one, and would be great if I can get some ideas from the reddit hive mind, I went to the apple store on saturday and spent a couple of hours there, and we couldn't get to the route of the issue, and I wanted to make sure I had an up to date Time Machine backup before moving forward with any of the next steps as in the genius's words, they are more "nuclear". Im having a weird issue... 4 1 replies
Not finding Energy settings in Sequoia 15.2 I'm having an issue with my Logitech Bluetooth mouse disconnecting when put to sleep, and Logitech is telling me to look for the "Allow this device to wake" setting in "Energy Saver." But, that doesn't exist in System Settings. Then the Apple support site references an "Energy" section, but I'm not finding that either. Where the heck can I find that setting? Search doesn't show anything. 4 1 replies
My Experience with the 2012 MacBook Pro and Recommendations for Operating Systems on a 12-Year-Old MacBook I have a 15-inch 2012 MacBook Pro (non-Retina) with an i7 processor and 8GB of RAM. I’ve tested several macOS versions, from the oldest to the newest, using OpenCore Legacy Patcher. Here are my conclusions based on my current configuration and the versions I’ve tested: * **macOS El Capitan**: Perfect—very stable and extremely lightweight for my applications. The only downside is that some browsers don’t work. * **macOS High Sierra**: Even better than El Capitan and all the others I tested. My applications run extremely well, all browsers work... 5 3 replies
Can’t reach files through VPN Hi everyone, I use OpenVPN to connect to boxes on OffSec, and everything works fine when I’m on Kali Linux. With the VPN running, if I check my IP address on Google, it still shows my original IP, which I expect. On Kali, I can access my files through a basic HTTP server while the VPN is active. I just use the VPN address http://192.168.55.155 in the browser, and everything works perfectly—I can see my files without any issues. But here’s the problem: when I switch to macOS and... 3 1 replies

HDR on MacOS for non Apple Displays. (Sequoia 15.2) When you enable HDR also change to color profile to Wide Gamut RGB so that colors are rendered properly even in SDR. Your external monitor will behave similarly to any Apple Displays. Non HDR content is rendered as well as HDR content, side by side. No more need to enable and disable HDR to watch videos and for the rest. Try it, open an HDR YT Video in a browser and see the effect. PS: You also gain the native support to control the external display brightness. 4 0 replies
