After updating my Mac to macOS Catalina I can no longer run the previous Mindstorms software. The new tool 'Mindstorms Home' doesn't allow for opening.ev3 files and uploading them to the brick. Does anyone know of another way to upload the contents of.ev3 files to the EV3 brick? As a result, Apple’s focus on the Mac waned: the hardware didn’t receive an update for over four years, and then OS X, once regularly updated with interesting features, now only receives the scraps from iOS. If you want to see this in action, check out iMessage on Mac: the flagship feature of iOS, iMessage stickers, barely works on Mac. How to restore a bricked iMac Pro. To restore your iMac Pro, do the following: 1) Launch Apple Configurator on your other Mac and plug in the USB or Thunderbolt cable. 2) Disconnect your iMac Pro from power. Cinnamon bun simulator mac os. 3) Plug in the cable to your iMac Pro’s Thunderbolt port closest to the Ethernet port.

I am a new convert to mac a few months ago, where I was previously a windows user. though I love mac, there are a few things that I dont like about it. it really was hard to think of ten things, and thats saying something, but here they are. (sigh).
What I dont like about my ibook G4:
1. narrow hardware support. I have had 2 scanner/copier/fax/printers, and neither of them have worked with mac. they have been recognized by mac, but the drivers could not be found or downloaded. from what I hear, even if they had been found, many of their features would not have worked (like the scanner). I have also had a bit of a problem having one of my digital camera memory cards mount as volume. It will show up in iphoto and let me import photos, but will not mount as a volume. I had another digital camera that did both (would work in iphoto and also mount as a volume). the camera that wouldnt used an SD card, the camera that would mount used a MemoryStick. I dont know if that matters. did I just get the short end of the stick, or is this narrow hardware support a bit of a trend, like I have heard?
2. mac / windows network integration. when I used a windows machine, I took for granted how easily they made networking. now that I have a mac, I have found it nearly impossible to transfer files over a Ethernet or wireless network to a windows machine. please tell me if you know of an easy (free) way.
3. I have had problems with my external hard drive. I use a 2.5 inch, 80 gig laptop harddrive connected via usb2.0 for my large (40 gig) itunes library, and I run my music library directly from the external hard drive. I dont know if it is just me, but I constantly have problems with it freezing and crashing (both the hard drive and itunes trying to use it). I have had to reformat it once before, and it looks like I will have to do it again. please tell me if there is something that I need to know to help ease my pains.
4. limited options. I miss having something like a hardware manager, that I had in windows. I miss some of the extended menus and options that windows gave me. I know that the whole Idea of mac is to keep it simple, but I wish that there was some way to keep it simple and somehow have these kind of advanced options available if you wanted them. again, if these exist, please tell me.
5. imovie. I dont know if it is just because I have worked with programs like adobe premiere, but I tried to use imove to make a little movie for myself and it drove me crazy. it sucked so bad. I dont know. I just thought that it was way too simple for some things (like not being able to easily change the length of photos that you import, not being able to add an extra video or audio track for overlapping music and voice, etc.)
6. no multi-protocol chat client that supports voice chat. Adium is great, but I cant use my nifty built-in microphone. I know, im getting kind of specific, but I was saddened when I couldnt find one for the mac (trillian and gaim do this for windows, as far as I know correct me if im wrong)
7. my battery. I have read up on it a bit, and tried to treat my ibooks battery right, but I still cant seem to get more then 2:30 3:00 hours of battery life out of it. the box it came in said it would get 5-6 hours. now, granted, I am usually using my airport, listening to music with itunes, surfing on firefox, and have a couple little programs running in the background (quicksilver, konfabulator, growl, adium,) but still shouldnt I be getting around 4 hours most of the time? does anyone else have this kind of problem?
8. more plugins. not really something I dont like about my ibook, just something that would be nice. I could always use one or two more usb2.0 slots, and I wish that apple put a plugin to be able to show your screen on a tv or something, without having to buy a separate special mac cable.
9. well, I would say that I wished mac was a little quicker and didnt bog down as much, but I think that my wish came true when they switched to intel processors. we will see soon if my new mac has got a speed lift.
10. iphoto. not being able to be more selective when importing photos into iphoto from my camera. you plug in your camera and you can either import all your pictures or none of them. you can delete them all off your camera or keep them all on. I wish I could see what photos are on my camera and be able to import certain ones, while deleting others from the camera that I dont want. it also bugs me that there arent some basic options in iphoto that will let you do the things that the program preview will let you do, (such as zoom in on the picture, show it full screen, etc). I also want to be able to sort my photos much like I sort my songs in itunes, by their title, date, description, rating, etc. you can do some of this in iphoto already, but I think that It could be improved.
That really is everything I can think of that I dont like about mac. and I strained on a couple of them. That truly is amazing. the list would never end if I did one of these for windows. it would also never end if I did one on the things that I love about mac. I appreciate any input and responses.

In 2009 when Apple launched Mac OS X 10.6—a.k.a. “Snow Leopard”—it drew a hardcore line in the sand that made most existing Mac hardware obsolete.

Priests vs monsters mac os. When I wrote 'Ten Things I Hate About Mac OS X,' I hoped that by pointing out rough edges in the user interface, readers would say, 'I never noticed that before, but you know, that really is very annoying and should be fixed.' Boy was I naive.
The article touched a nerve with many Apple apologists and set off a firestorm of controversy. A few of the comments the article generated were just plain nasty, questioning my technical prowess, if not my very manhood. Fortunately, there were brave readers who came to my defense, pointing out that all of my gripes were technically accurate, even if they didn’t share my frustration at the 'flaw' I was discussing.
In the spirit of helping make Apple’s operating system the best it can be, here are 10 more things I hate about Mac OS X, presented in no particular order. For the most part, these are admittedly small annoyances, but it was Apple’s dedication to sweating the details that drew many users to its fine products in the first place. I hope that engineers in Cupertino will address these issues in a Mac OS X update soon, so that I can go back to loving everything that’s great about my computer, rather than griping about the few things I hate.
1. Small Open/Save Dialog Boxes
I Hate Bricks Mac Os Update
When the original 128K Mac was released in 1984, it featured a 9-inch monochrome display. Even if you don’t have a monster 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Display, today’s Macs offer so much more screen real estate. Why is it then that the default Open and Save dialog boxes (see Figure 1) remain extremely small, forcing users to scroll to find the file or location they want?

Figure 1 Small dialog boxes force users to scroll excessively and guess at precise filenames.

Fortunately, in most applications you can resize these dialog boxes by dragging the bottom right corner. Stretch vertically to see more locations and files and horizontally to see longer filenames. The resized dialog boxes are used in the future, but you must repeat the process for every application you use. Too bad there’s no way to set a larger default dialog box for all applications. I paid for a big screen and I want all of my programs to make the most of it without fiddling with each individually.
