I ordered one, and it works great with a Mac mini w/Roku TV. Specs do not mention compatibility with Mac OS but nevertheless it works fine. I'm a big fan of the Unifying receiver.

Re: After reinstalling Monterey, unable to place Unidentified developer apps into dock - 1 year ago

Tiangou, Your comment prompted me to make aliases to the Filemaker files and then put them in the dock. It worked. That's the way I had it for 15 yrs previously but somehow let it slip. Problem solved. Thanks a bunch.

Re: After reinstalling Monterey, unable to place Unidentified developer apps into dock - 1 year ago

Come to think about it, these programs are running under Filemaker 17. Filemaker "wakes up" in the dock when I double-click an icon for one of these programs but does not show my icon in the dock. Before reinstalling Monterey not only could I put the icon in the dock but when running, it would show as active. Fooling with Security Preferences does nothing to change it. Maybe it'

After reinstalling Monterey, unable to place Unidentified developer apps into dockinto dock - 1 year ago

M1 Mini. In trying to rid the mini of "Search Marquis" malware, I reinstalled Monterey. At some point there was an option to choose some level of security for how the system would deal with certain applications and I apparently made the wrong choice. Previously, I was able to place apps that I had developed personally into the dock. Now, these apps will open and run fine but I have

Re: A Mac question! AirPort Express 1st Gen - 1 year ago

I use my Airport express in just this way. Works fine. Use the Airport Utility to set it up. The Airport Express will probably need some firmware updates. Amber light means go to Airport Utility to install, as far as I recall.

Re: Costco for hearing aids? - 1 year ago

Thanks, macphanatic and graylocks. I'll probably try them. I did watch Dr Cliff and yes it's probably the technician that makes the difference.

Costco for hearing aids? - 1 year ago

My hearing is failing (presbycusis). Tried hearing aids from local clinic about 3 years ago but found over time that they weren't really working so now considering Costco for a new fitting. I would like to hear from forumites re their experience.

Re: Need to upgrade to Catalina at least...any reason not to go to Monterey? - 1 year ago

I upgraded my 2014 mini to Catalina. It was slow, hard to use. Same when it was upgraded to Big Sur. Monterey cured it. My M1 mini came with Big Sur. Worked great. Upgraded to Monterey. Still works great.

Re: Unsolicited plug for SuperDuper - 2 years ago

Be that as it may; for me it works perfectly now just as it has for the last 15-20 yrs. I backed up to a USB 3 drive and later started up in Big Sur from that drive. Slow, as expected, but it worked as expected. My usual experience with SuperDuper!.

Unsolicited plug for SuperDuper - 2 years ago

M1 Mac Mini. Big Sur OS. Been using using SuperDuper for years but no upgrade or use for APFS. Apparently it's been a bitch to develop a complete, bootable, simple backup utility. So I waited. Finally got the M1 Mini with Big Sur and bought Super Duper 3.5. It just works. Just like it always did. Fast, simple. Nuff said.
