When I have found that the eject is dim it either means an app (including the finder) has an open directory or file on the disk, or else that you have already asked the system to eject the drive and it is still processing. Best wishes, Jonathan Cohn > On Jun 25, 2017, at 5:3

I am looking for a current and complete list of keyboard commands for iOS 10 using external keyboards. The list for the Apple Wireless Keyboard in the iPhone/iPad user guide is missing quite a few. For that matter, the list of gestures seems to be missing some there too. I'd appreci

Installer not talking on my iMac

Hi all I had to format and install a clean copy of Sierra for a friend over the weekend and thought while I have the installer on a USB flash drive I might as well do my iMac as well, since I’ve been wanting to do a clean install for a while. Everything worked as expected on my friends MBP and
