Your not the only one. With the M1/M2 Pro and Max chips instead of trying forcing the Mac to use mainly the efficiency cores Apple tuned the chips to just cap the wattage to a point where they are still fast but are just more efficient. The performance drops but not by anywhere near the amount the M1 chip does. I can tell the difference personally when starting to push it, but it’s not massive.

AWESOME VIDEO!!!!! Many helpful tips, definitely saving this video.

Hi, I asked in another post, if I have to buy a new Mac asap, coming from the Mac Pro 2019, what do u suggest I buy, given all you’ve announced coming in 2023, I need to buy the coming week… Thanks 🙏🏻

I can tell you this guide is spot on.

That terminal command for purging memory is pretty useful. It purged about 10% of uneeded processes. It was fun watching that drop in iStat Menu.

Love this type of content! More please!

If on your WiFi router you set 5GHz to max power and 2.4GHz to half power (same name), then your Mac/phone will prefer 5GHz when in range but still seamlessly connect to 2.4GHz when far away or outside when 5GHz doesn't reach. Note that having multiple WiFi names causes AirPlay to disconnect every time it changes which WiFi name it's connected to, especially phones with WiFi Private Address turned on (default)

Thanks for the tip. I personally need my 2.4ghz to be full power because of smart home accessories that are far away which some of them still have a lower than I’d like signal even at full power, and of course most of these only support 2.4ghz.

Hello. I have an issue with my airpods pro 1st gen. I’m experiencing static and crackling noise. My airpods are out of warranty but i came to know about the apple service program. Unfortunately it only applies to the AirPods manufactured before October 2020 and I purchased mine in October 2021. Is there any way to get my airpods repaired or replaced. Hoping for your kind reply.

How do you get the CPU temp in your menu bar?

Where to find "Allow in Background" on Monterey?

If you set your Mac to restart at midnight, do your windows reopen? Also do you need to be on the computer at the time for it to do this?

You can also get a little performance boost by reducing your screen resolution and by turning off animations and high contrast on ur desktop.

What version of Mac OS are you using? Your battery settings look different to mine.

One quibble with this video. You shouldn't have to restart unless absolutely necessary. macOS is built on UNIX. A lot of server farms run on UNIX-based operating systems because of outstanding stability and uptime. Most of the time, if you logout & log back in this will fix an issue. My 2013 MacBook Pro had 334 days uptime with no slowdowns. When its keyboard didn't work on wake one afternoon (a software bug at the time) I had to force a restart. If you're having an issue where you need to restart regularly there's a piece of software installed that's causing the issue.

@MaxTechOfficial

Жыл бұрын

It’s absolutely third party software and on some occasions bugs from new MacOS updates (for example my airdrop not working and crashing finder, which is fixed with a restart) If you just have the mac apps and use safari the experience is way better but for most people once they load up with third party apps some of them have issues. Another one I have is a motion VFX plugin that we use in most videos will randomly unconnected but only in the exported video while it looks perfectly fine in Final Cut. A restart also fixes this.

Where can I find back ground apps on my Mac?

System settings/system preferences>general>login items. If it's older mac need to go into system preferences>users and groups>login items tab and click lock bottom left to unlock to make changes, choose item and click the minus icon below it to remove or move slider to left to turn off. You can still use those programs just won't be running 24/7 on startup.

Apple Silicon doesn’t have Turbo Boost. Doesn’t matter because in the Mac, their processors are way faster than Intel’s anyway. If you have a 16 inch Pro, however, there is a high power mode you can turn on to force it to clock higher (I believe 3.67 GHz vs 3.49 GHz).

What do you mean "restart mac"? I will soon reach a milestone of a half a year since last boot! Hell, I even manually rebooted the headphones driver when it felt funky Also, logging out of all users with re-open tasks feature disabled should provide same result as reboot since critical processes (usually run by the root user) *shouldn't* be affected by your regular user. I mean, if they do, reboot won't help

Thanks for the advice, but I've been using Apple computers since 1994 and I can say that the Sonoma system is the most screwed-up and most buggy operating system in Apple's history. We don't spend thousands of dollars to sit and waste several hours a day repairing the system or fiddling with settings to make, for example, the external drive visible, the external monitor working, the email application working, etc. The idea of Apple died with Steve Jobs.
