Re: Mac mini and SSD ideas/thoughts

I hesitate because of the throughput to the system. The drive itself may run at internal speeds, but how fast can it talk to the computer? The connection type will dictate that, and unless you're using a very modern one, I doubt you'll reach the speed of an internal connection. I could be wrong,

iPhone7 in hand, and great apple store experience!

Let me start by saying, apple stores are being restocked sooner than the carriers. The reason I know this, is all carrier stores said they will fill back orders first, and they might get more in the stores by mid october. If you check the apple store app, select your carrier, color, and size i

I use an iOS app named ring maker Pro from the Apple App Store. You execute this app on the iPhone or iPad and then send it to your Mac as an email or text message attachment. You then open it on the Mac (or PC) and iTunes will load it into your iTunes folders where it will then be available to

I believe Ringtone Maker Pro is something like $1.99. You do have to somehow get the resulting ringtone into your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, but this part is quite straight forward; after saving the newly created ringtone you have an option to send an e-mail with the ringtone attached t

Hi Tim, This is just a guess on my part, but Pages of course doesn't "save" to Word format; it "exports" to Word. Do you think that could be why your app doesn't function as expected? It actually causes features like auto-save to work differently, too. Grant > On Sep 26, 2016, at 1:21 PM, Tim

Re: Weird issue with Safari.

Hi, I wonder if it's auto-completing the URL. Mine does this and makes a menu-type sound while it's doing it, though it doesn't say anything about smart text. Does it still do it if you type a URL you've never been to before? If it is auto-complete I don't know how to switch it off. Presumably
