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.

I have a column with values, for instance 2 – 1 – 4 – 3 – 5 , and would like to show this in a chart. However, the values reflect a ranking, so I would like ‘1’ to be shown as the highest value and ‘5’ as the lowest in the chart. ... (3 Comments)

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?

I brought my late 2012 iMac (with High Sierra and a fusion drive) into the shop for repair and they said I need a new hard drive. They will install High Sierra for me and then I can restore everything else from my Time Machine backup. Or I can tell them to just install the ... (2 Comments)

Thanks

The title is shown above a photo, but what is Description? I guess Keywords is to make a photo searchable?
What are your thoughts of when to use what?

I’m wanting to purchase a new MacBook Pro as I lost the HD to my 2012′ model recently and then sold it.
I’ve never owned a MacBook with a SSD drive before so I’m questionable if 128GB is enough HD space for my needs.
I have over 12,000 pics/vids (59.9GB), ... (3 Comments)

According to Time Machine I have 3 years of data backed up in my 2TB Time Capsule and it’s almost full. What’s the case for buying a larger TC now that older b.u.’s will start deleting? Isn’t three years enough for safety?
Thanks, Tom

By default, every time I get a screenshot on macOS, the file generated will be named “Screen Shot date time” where the date is in the format of YYYY-MM-DD.
How could I change the date format to DD-MM-YYYY?

I have a Numbers data base for my bicycle riding. Started in 2/2/12. Four columns, date/minutes on bike/miles/notes.
There are 35+ pages in the data base, way to much to print when all I need are the bottom line statistics.
I see the totals in the cells in line #1243 on page #125 ... (3 Comments)
