Mac Update Frustrations

December 22, 2020 by Michele Neylon Leave a Comment

I like keeping my Macs up to date. Unfortunately they don't always want to cooperate with me. For the last few days a Mac update I was trying to install on my Macbook was stuck: I'd tried restarting the Mac, powering it down and starting it from "cold". No difference. Mac OSX is not a million miles away from Linux so you can do a lot of stuff directly from the … [Read more...] about Mac Update Frustrations

Disabling Push Email in Outlook on iOS

November 4, 2018 by Michele Neylon 3 Comments

OSX on a Macbook air

I recently had to setup a new Macbook from scratch, so it got me thinking about which apps are "essential". While a Mac is "usable" straight out of the box, you'll find yourself installing extra software pretty quickly :) Obviously what you consider essential is going to vary a lot on how you work with your Mac and what you do for a living.
