The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products. MacMost specializes in tutorials, tips and techniques of the “how-to” variety, as opposed to “fix-it” questions that are more about something not working as expected.5/7/18

A few years ago there was an article on how to be able to email a file from Finder. I was able to do it and then something happened to my MacBook Air and it was no longer there. I think it had to do with a macro of some sort. Can anyone help?

I have an older iPad, second generation. I think the touch screen is getting worn out. The iPad works OK for what I need it for. Sometimes the swipe to open works, but it usually takes 20 to 30 swipes, rotating from landscape to portrait view, and repeatedly having to hit the ... (1 Comment)

Apparently in Sierra > Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Account Information I should be able to see options regarding downloading attachments, but I don’t have these. I have a POP account, not IMAP – is that why?
