Can I use WhatsApp in the Mac?

2021-12-03 Thread Rena 
Hello,

 

I heard it's possible to use WhatsApp in the Mac. Would anyone please
explain how? Where do I find it to install it?

Thank you,

 

Rena

Can't save changes to existing text edit document.

2021-12-03 Thread Jessica Moss 
I’ve just updated an existing text edit document I’ve had on my USB drive for 
years, and had no problem saving changes to it in the past, and now all of a 
sudden am getting a strange message that I don’t have permission to make 
changes to the file.  I’ve gone into “get info” in finder, and under the 
sharing and permissions section, all it displays is “you can read and write” 
then the rest of the text is cut off and I can’t scroll any further.
  Has anyone else had this issue?

Hi,

There should be a What’s App app in the Mac App Store.  You’ll need to “Get” 
it, then open it and add your What’s App credentials and you’ll be all set.

Later…

Re: Can't save changes to existing text edit document.

2021-12-03 Thread 'Robert Cole' via MacVisionaries 
Check to see if this problem is only the one document, or the entire USB stick.
If the entire usb drive is protected, you have unknowingly hit the switch to 
enable protection.

Re: Can I use WhatsApp in the Mac?

2021-12-03 Thread 'Matthew Dierckens' via MacVisionaries 
Hi,there is a version of what's app for Mac. I am finding it a tad bit 
sluggish, but I can listen to voice messages and can send voice and text 
messages. You will need to scan a QR code on your phone to the computer, but it 
is accessible.
The multi-device support is still currently in beta.

Re: Can't save changes to existing text edit document.

2021-12-03 Thread Jessica Moss 
I just checked, and found it to be doing this on multiple documents.  I’m 
really confused as to how this could’ve happened, because I have no idea how to 
make changes to this, so I know for a fact that I haven’t touched any of the 
settings, and under the sharing and permissions section under the drive itself, 
I’m finding nothing useful in order to find out what got toggled on/off.

Re: Can't save changes to existing text edit document.

2021-12-03 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries 
Hi,

Flash drives are notoriously unreliable.  I suggest that you copy the files 
from that drive to your Mac.  You can then likely make the changes you want to 
make.  If you wish to keep using that flash drive, then after copying them to 
your Mac, go into Disk Utility, select the flash drive, and erase it using the 
MacOS Extended (Journaled) scheme.  You can then copy the files back over and, 
as long as the drive is not damaged in any way, you should be good for now.

Later…

There is a Mac version of WHats App. After downloading and installing you need 
to scan a QR code on the Mac’s screen with your phone. Move the phone around 
the screen slowly until it sees the QR coee.

Re: Radio Astronomy on the iPhone

2021-12-03 Thread Yuma Decaux 
Hi Michael,

AstreOS is my passion project, and I am still working on it, though for the 
past year and a half it's been slow due to my finishing my degree in computer 
science and working on research for a mac version of the astronomy app, doing 
lots of presentations and workshops etc.

You can head to https://astreos.space to get the link to the test flight. It 
works fine, and we're developing some backend code for a citizen scientist 
feature which I am also putting into the mac OS version.

The mac OS version is a bit more scientific, less astro gazer and more radio 
astronomy on top of the visual standards used by astronomers globally. It has 
been featured at a workshop on audible universes recently, and I currently 
supervise a student to finish off the 3D audio system that will work on 
surround sound.

Since I have just graduated, I will have more time to focus on the official 
release of both apps, so I'm looking forward to post some updates soon :)

Have a great weekend,

Yuma
