@siracusa @caseyliss You know how #iCloud does that "if it's not downloaded to your #Mac, it has a cloud w/a down arrow on it in the #finder" thing...? And you have to click that manually to open the file?

How do I use command line to know when my script hits one of those so I can know what to do in order to DL it to process it? 🤷‍♂️ Lately a lot of new files are not downloading automatically - and yes, I have "Optimize Mac Storage" unchecked.

#macOS15.5

Service toot:
The discard/delete button in macOS save dialogues on quit/close was cmd-D for the longest time. For me that seemed to work until only a short time ago.

It is cmd-backspace nowadays. Which is kind of annoying as cmd-W for closing the window and then the backspace is on the other side of the keyboard from the we. But at least it exists.

Is there anyone who knows exactly when this change happend? And related: contrast is still shit.

If you're interested in #DolbyAudio upgrades of your favorite music(whether #Atmos or any of its other multichannel formats) these are probably two useful resources to track what’s available and/or what gets added:

With the addition of #HDMI #passthrough in #macOS15 I’m finding renewed use for my surround receiver that started gathering dust in recent years. A sample recent submission was RTJ3: music.apple.com/us/album/run-t A classic that got an Atmos upgrade a few years ago (yes audiophiles, you can choose your preferred mix) is Kind of Blue: music.apple.com/us/album/kind-

Anyway it's interesting to compare traditional stereo and surround mixes. What other surround mixes are worth checking out?

Seems like the firmware update and/or macOS 15 has really made my AirPods Pro 2 nearly useless with my M1 MBP… Audio sync and connection issues make them totally unreliable. They were almost flawless before!

📝 UPDATE: Most of my audio sync issues seem to have been caused by SoundSource v5.7.0 and v5.7.1 has fixed them.

💻📲 Still having issues with hand-off that are likely firmware or iOS 18 + macOS 15 caused.

If you’re experiencing networking issues on macOS Sequoia such as interrupted SSL and SSH connections, slow speeds on VPN, packet loss, etc – there is a bug in the firewall. As reported by u/RomanaOswin here: reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/1f

The symptom I experienced was the macOS ChatGPT app failing to send messages, sync previous chats, and update settings. The ChatGPT website works, just not the app. Turning off the firewall fixes it.
