How do I take a .jpg photo instead of .mov

Posted: 20 May 2022 09:11 AM PDT

I'm trying to use an Iphone 13 Mini to take pictures of some documents, but when I use the camera app., it keeps creating .mov files, when I want a format like .jpg. I tried changing the camera settings from "High Efficiency" to "Compatible" but that has no effect.

2019 Macbook Pro boots straight to internet recovery

Posted: 20 May 2022 09:29 AM PDT

I have a 2019 Macbook pro that had a swollen battery. The battery was causing the laptop to crash randomly, but I could boot into it only if I fully drained the battery first, after which it would list about 5 mins in the OS before crashing.

After replacing the battery I tried to reinstall the OS with no success. I followed a guide to boot into DFU mode and restore it, which cleared out my SSD (which was fine), but now I can't find a way to install macOS on it again.

Currently, with no installed version of macOS, it boots to the folder with a question mark on it (expected). Anything I try seems to bring me to internet recovery, which at first succeeds (countdown timer), but then just hangs when the Apple and progress bar is shown.

Things I've tried:

  • Reset SMC
  • Reset NVRAM
  • Internet Recovery (it completes the countdown timer, but when it shows the apple and progress bar, no progress is ever made)
  • MacOS install media (properly created and is detected with option boot, but when selected on boot, it goes straight to internet recovery which fails as described above)
  • I've tried using an Ethernet cable through a usb-c dongle

I haven't tried setting DNS at my router to Google's DNS (saw this on the linked post below).

I saw this comment in another question that suggests taking it to the Apple store if "nothing else works" https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/423553/459225

Has anyone else run into this? Are there any other things I can try? Also, what are Apple Geniuses able to do at the Mac Store that's different from the known boot commands and keyboard combinations we have available to us?

The laptop produces a clean diagnostic report running the apple diagnostic tool.

Thanks for any help!

In Apple Mail.app: way to modify "Send" to prompt for either "Send" email or "Send and File Copy" of email to folder?

Posted: 20 May 2022 08:28 AM PDT

I have a DevonThink database where I store email correspondence relating to my casefiles. But I am always forgetting to file sent messages. Is there anyway to modify the "Send" function (or replace the "Send" function) in Apple Mail so that I can be prompted to file a copy of the email or not?

Even better if, when I choose to file copy, it archives a copy the email into my DT database or a finder folder (which is watched by my DT database) and then files the actual email in "Sent" as normal.

So I guess I would want to map it out like this:

  1. on sent email:
  2. select last sent email
  3. prompt user: would you like to file a copy of this email?
  4. if yes, copy email and save somewhere (mail folder (good) or finder folder (better) or archive email to devonthink inbox (best))

The first step would be how to select the last sent email. This I cannot figure out how to do.

I found this stackexchange question which may be helpful for figuring this out

How to save sent messages in same folder as message being replied to?

Anyway, thanks for any help you can provide.

Does my iPhone send feedback based on who I block?

Posted: 20 May 2022 07:50 AM PDT

I block numbers from spam calls. Does this signal get sent to either my carrier or Apple to help them identify spammers?

Is there a way I can mark an item/event in the default Calendar app as "DONE" or "ACCOMPLISHED"?

Posted: 20 May 2022 08:27 AM PDT

For example, I want to take track whether I have finished something or not, is there a way how to mark that something was finished/accomplished/done?

Now I only see when something should had happened but I have no idea if I really did it or how was the outcome, etc.

Thanks for your help guys.

"Mailbox doesn't exist": separator woes in Mail.app-dovecot interaction

Posted: 20 May 2022 10:35 AM PDT

For many years I've been running a dovecot imap server on localhost, to store my mail archive and access it with any client (mainly Mail.app and Thunderbird) and not depend on those app's storage format when they upgrade. Since upgrading to Big Sur (macOS 11.6.5, Mail.app 14.0) things work in Thunderbird but no longer in Mail.app, which displays all folders (except those at the top of the hierarchy) as empty.

Here is my dovecot configuration:

FZs-MacBook-Pro:~ fz$ doveconf -n  # 2.0.16: /Volumes/Home/FZ/.local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf  # OS: Darwin 20.6.0 x86_64  hfs  default_internal_user = fz  default_login_user = fz  log_path = /Volumes/Home/FZ/.local/var/log/dovecot.log  mail_location = maildir:/Volumes/Home/FZ/Mail:LAYOUT=fs  passdb {    args = username_format=%u /Volumes/Home/FZ/.local/etc/dovecot-users    driver = passwd-file  }  service anvil {    chroot =   }  service imap-login {    chroot =     inet_listener imap {      port = 10143    }    inet_listener imaps {      port = 10993    }  }  service pop3-login {    chroot =     inet_listener pop3 {      port = 10110    }    inet_listener pop3s {      port = 10995    }  }  ssl = no  userdb {    args = username_format=%u /Volumes/Home/FZ/.local/etc/dovecot-users    driver = passwd-file  }  

Here is a log of what happens when I click the folder "Topics/Computing/httpd" in Thunderbird:

And here is what appears in Connection Doctor > Show Detail when I try the same thing in Mail.app:

WROTE May 19 18:20:09.706 [kCFStreamSocketSecurityLevelNone] -- host:127.0.0.1 -- port:10143 -- socket:0x600007487420 -- thread:0x6000044c3300 40.372 SELECT Topics.Computing.httpd (CONDSTORE)  READ May 19 18:20:09.707 [kCFStreamSocketSecurityLevelNone] -- host:127.0.0.1 -- port:10143 -- socket:0x600007487420 -- thread:0x6000044c3300 40.372 NO Mailbox doesn't exist: Topics.Computing.httpd  

It seems clear that the problem is that Mail.app asks for the subfolders assuming separator "." instead of "/".

Question: How can I get Mail.app and dovecot to communicate correctly?

MacBook Pro 16-inch 2019 restarts after sleep or locking the screen

Posted: 20 May 2022 09:38 AM PDT

Sometimes my MacBook Pro restarts after a while of being asleep. Other times it restarts after a while of being with the screen locked.

I have macOS Monterrey, but this is has been happening before the OS upgrade.

This is the error report I got from the system after the reboot.

Apply outgoing firewall rules per app selectively (MacOS Big Sur)

Posted: 20 May 2022 09:00 AM PDT

Question: Which firewall can selectively apply multiple named domain resolving rules per app? E.g. like the One Periodic's Hands Off firewall

Details: I'm looking for an app or combination of apps that can give more control or 'gate-keep' outgoing connection requests and identify the domain being resolved by name (not IP address). Not just tell me that "xyz app trying to connect to 12.34.56.78", where I don't have a clue what the IP address or numerical web address is.

I've been using Hands Off for a while and it does this well. However, currently (as of 2022 May), it seems there is no Hands Off firewall app compatible with MacOS Big Sur.

Shortcomings with current alternative (Lulu): When looking for alternatives to Hands Off, I found Lulu, which seems like one of the better firewalls out there. So far though, it's not been a complete solution/alternative.

Shortcoming 1) With Lulu, you can either permanently or temporarily block by process or remote-endpoint (first and second screen shots below). This is great but is lacking when compared to Hands Off.

For example, I use Thunderbird email client to receive/send emails. I often get emails with tracking pixels from say, LinkedIn or a marketing email. When I open an email with Thunderbird, Hands Off immediately prompts that there's an attempt by Thunderbird to respond to the tracking pixel (which is triggering Thunderbird to make a connection unrelated to imap/smtp etc.). So far, I haven't noticed any prompts like this with Lulu.

In Hands Off's dialog prompt window there are four time/occurrence options to block, "Always, Until Quit, Until Reboot, Once" (third screen shot). This is very useful. One of the benefits is that I can selectively allow pixels when I want the sender to know I've opened their campaign email. There are also four connection-type options comprised of Domain/Subdomain Resolving and Outgoing Connections. Also Hands Off shows the name of the domain not just an IP address or numerical domain — more details on this below.

Shortcoming 2) When Lulu prompts for a decision it mostly or almost always shows a numerical web address...I had to google each web address it showed in order to figure out to whom an app was connecting to. With Hands Off, I can easily add the rule "Allow domain name resolving and outgoing network connections to imap.gmail.com". I wasn't able to add such a rule with Lulu...maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Ideas for solutions/workarounds (perhaps the first is the easiest or most realistic):

  1. Use a completely new firewall app (or a combination of apps e.g. firewall + network monitor) that emulates Hands Off's features. Which app/apps has/have those features?...I'm guessing Little Snitch might have these features but wasn't sure, based on what I've seen on their website.

  2. Big Sur-compatible version of Hands Off?...though this seems unlikely as pointed out by @kenston-choi here: Firewall for outgoing connections

  3. Find/create a fork or some sort of add-on for Lulu to enable adding rules by domain — since Lulu is open-source...and modifying the flexibility of rule application via the prompt screen...someone had suggested something similar here https://github.com/objective-see/LuLu/issues/10

PS. For the Thunderbird email pixel use-case above, I couldn't find a Thunderbird Add-on Extension that can selectively block tracking pixels upon-prompt. I've heard that using webmail instead of a client with a web browser extension could resolve this use-case. This is not an option for me, as I need to monitor/access multiple email accounts, hence use an email client like Thunderbird.

Nb. Please let me know if I can make my question more concise/succinct and or add/remove relevant/irrelevant tags.

How can I edit a mistyped or incomplete recipient address in the ios mail app?

Posted: 20 May 2022 07:22 AM PDT

When trying to send a mail to a new recipient it quite often happens that I mistype it on the tiny iPhone onscreen keyboard or that I unintentionally touch the screen in a different field while typing, so it changes focus and there is a partial e-mail address in the To: field.

How can I correct it without retyping the whole address?

I tried moving the cursor inside it, but the whole address is selected and I can only remove or replace it completely.

I also tried holding the finger on the address for a longer time, hoping that a menu appears, but that just selects it completely.

On macOS Mail, a little menu button appears next to such an e-mail address which has an entry that allows editing it.

Install Windows 7 on MacBook Pro 8,3 late 2011 17"

My goal is to install windows 7 on my MacBook Pro 8,3 (MacBook Pro from 2011). But the Windows 7 USB installer or DVD can't be recognized when booting via the options(alt) command.

This is where I am currently stuck:

I have tried to follow David Andersens guide: No bootable device USB 2.0 MacBook Pro mid 2014

I have a list of URLs saved in a text file separated by spaces, and I would like to download every single one to my iPad as a zip file.

How can I do that?

com.automator.runner.xpc is not allowed to send keystrokes

I have two MacBooks. Both run the same MacOS version. I installed the same Automator script in both. But on the older MacBook I get:

The action "Run AppleScript" encountered an error: "System Events got an error: com.automator.runner.xpc is not allowed to send keystrokes."

I added Automator to the Security -> Accessibility section in both. It even works on the older one. But then it suddenly stops. It just don't get why...
