    Probably April if not end of March. May is too late.

    2010 iMac with new Sierra os x 10.12 constantly freezing - What do I do???

    Had the same issue with 10.12.0 on 2015 5k iMac. Complete freeze, one or two times a day. Had to restore an ElCap clone.

    Why No Night Shift for Macs?

    Flux is completely automatic - it detects location (or you enter it manually) and then it engages and disengages at proper times. You can even set the length of the transition between fluxed and non-fluxed display.

    Background App Refresh: On or off?

    Re: Background app refresh. Example - with BAR enabled, apps like Pocket can get the content you added before you actually open the app. When disabled, all that content gets downloaded only when you launch the app, which can be problematic with slow or capped mobile data.

    Download file with Safari and save it to iOS 10 native local file system

    Re: Can I update 5.1.1 to ios 9 or more? That sounds your device is an iPad 1. If that's the case, you cannot update to anything newer than 5.1.1.

    Why aren’t my contacts showing up in a search?

    Re: Contacts not coming up in search Contacts search is extremely spotty. When they do show up at all, it's almost always showing either wrong or rarely used contacts. For example, I have a frequent contact named Ema (local variant with single M). When searching for "Ema", random contacts show...

    TRIM Enabler

    Yes I do. It marks sectors (or their equivalents) as empty so the drive doesn't have to verify each one as empty before writing. I have repeated the benchmark with or without TRIM many times and the results were nearly identical. I got nearly 1/3 performance without TRIM. It's, of course...

    TRIM Enabler

    Trim is very important. My Samsung 840 does 480/240 mBps (sequential read/write) with TRIM but only ~120/80 without it. Multiple benchmarks over three years, same results. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
