What am I missing? - 6 weeks ago
I have a new iPhone SE (2020) updated to 15.5 and successfully receiving/making calls and connected to my home Wi-Fi. Problem: Rotating the screen from portrait to landscape; icons don’t shift. Portrait Orientation Lock is NOT on in Control Center. Toggling makes no difference. What am I missing? It’s a brand new phone; could it be defective? MJDby michaeld50 - Tips and Deals

MacOS Upgrade Advice... - 5 years ago
Friend with a MacBook Pro happily running 10.8.5 has been caught by TurboTax's OS requirement. Anyone care to comment about going straight to latest 10.12? There will be a full bootable backup before anything is done! Next year TT will require 10.11 or later. TIA Michaelby michaeld50 - Tips and Deals

Re: 70 to 100 hours to restore a system? - 8 years ago
...an adendum to my previous post taken from : "If you use Internet Recovery to reinstall OS X, it installs the version of OS X that originally came with your computer. After installation is finished, use the Mac App Store to install related updates or later versions of OS X that you have previously purchased."

Re: 70 to 100 hours to restore a system? - 8 years ago
If you want to use the "internet recovery" option, your serial number information is transmitted to Apple. It will then install ONLY the original OS version that it shipped with along with the "bundled" applications that it came with when new. MJDby michaeld50 - Tips and Deals

Re: Which Intel Macs Have a Built-In Hardware Test? - 13 years ago
Just tested it on my 2009 Mini; Just "d" with no disk in the optical drive and it booted into AHT. This is also a replacement internal drive I installed. If it's on the drive, it must be part of the OS install. My guess is firmware. Might open the little guy up again and disconnect the drive, but that requires work! MJDby michaeld50 - Tips and Deals
