I have a 3k portable 13" display. The resolution is 3200x1800. That means it should run at high DPI at 1600x900. I also have two Macbooks. One is a MBP Intel 2018 and the other is the MBA M1. The MBP runs it either 3200x1600 with super tiny everything or 1600x900 and pixelated. The MBA runs...

I'm trying to install a Windows software on my M1 MBA running Parallels. I get this error: https://i.postimg.cc/XqztB0FR/Screenshot-2022-11-22-at-8-03-28-PM.png It says I need to turn Controlled Folder Access off which I already did before running the installation (see the screenshot). I...

4K monitors are plenty and around the $300 price range. To go to 5k it's looking at $1000 or higher for similar physical display size but more pixels. Why is that?

I tried plugging in an adapter a lot like this one: https://www.amazon.com/DisplayPort-JSAUX-Thunderbolt-Compatible-Plus-Grey/dp/B0836HGBD7/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3K601WRGCEUWZ&keywords=usb+c+to+mini+displayport&qid=1667760275&s=electronics&sprefix=usb+c+to+mini+displaypor,electronics,138&sr=1-3 This...

In Mac's Disk Utility I can see my external hard drive. However it is not mounted and when I attempt to do so it spins forever and eventually errors out. I've tried this a few times. One time after rebooting I saw it was mounted for like 15 seconds but then unmounted shortly after. I don't know...

been using previous versions of MacBook (intel 2019, 2017, etc) in clamshell mode for years now. I have an external display (Dell 3007WFP) connected and when I tap my Magic Keyboard, the external display wakes up and I'm at the login screen. Since upgrading to an M1 MacBook Air and putting it...

Okay so I've reinstalled Win 10 on my laptop. The manufacturer's site has a list of a dozen or so drivers. So far everything seems to be working without drivers. Which ones do I need to install? Are any of them required? Does Win 10 come with all the drivers I need?

I'm wondering if I'll run into Windows installation issues later like with product keys. I found this article https://answers.gethuman.com/Asus/How-Do-I-Find-My-Asus-Product-Key/how-flX and it allowed me to get the product key out of my laptop. Is this sufficient to reactivate Windows after I...

After backing up my data, I just tried the recovery menu in Win 10's settings. I told it to download Windows from Cloud and wipe everything. The system rebooted and dumped me with a 0x0000185 error. The recovery failed. I managed to get back into Win 10 after another reboot. It says "There was...

So I have this enclosure: https://www.amazon.com/Sabrent-External-Lay-Flat-Docking-EC-DFFN/dp/B013WODZH0?th=1 It works with a 2.0TB WD20EZRX SATA 64MB Cache. It reads and writes just fine. However it doesn't work with a 3.0TB WD30EZRX SATA 64MB Cache. When I plug it in a Windows or Mac laptop...

I'm not sure I can do that easily. I'd have to open up the laptop. What do I gain by doing so?

any suggestions for how to back up all my data first? is there a tool will let me plug in an external hard drive and just back up everything on my laptop? is it a good idea to just format it all? i dont want legacy files sitting around after a reformat...

My Win 10 laptop is having serious symptoms. They include? 1) When booting, the desktop icons sometimes don't appear or take a long time to appear. 2) When clicking on the Windows Explorer, sometimes nothing happens or the app opens for a split second and disappears. 3) Sometimes the...

would the HDMI solution allow me to get the maximum resolution possible on the external monitor which is 3200x1800?

I'm having trouble connecting these two. My laptop has a mini DP port and my external monitor has a USB-C like port. The manual does say it is DP compatible. However, all the adapters out there say they are unidirectional in the wrong direction. An example...

played around with betterdummy from that link (thanks) it worked using a method where they created a dummy display and then I streamed it to the external and i could get a glorious image at 3k retina the limitations were - lag when moving mouse or typing - i was constricted to only the...

thanks but it didn't work. holding down option and pressing scaled didn't show any new options it seems like this wouldn't be hard to do in 3rd party software....since the scaling has already been done for the built in retina display. im basically asking mac to treat my external monitor as a...

My 15" portable display has a resolution of 3200x1800, which is more than my 15" MBP 2017 v12.4 Monterey running 2880x1800. So my external display should look just as awesome if not better correct? Nope. It's blurry or very tiny. In my Display system preferences, when selecting the external...

It is out of warranty and Asus is asking $60 just for a diagnostic. What would the cost of repair likely be and are there other options? Please see this image for the damage:

I have one of the latest macbook pro 15" with 4x Thunderbolt 3 ports I also have two older 3007WFP 30" Dell LCDs which use Dual link DVI connections. I currently have thunderbolt to display port adapters and then the display port to apple dual link DVI adapters so I can technically hook...

I find my internet problems happen typically during a video call where latency is important. Loading Netflix (buffering), webpages and speedtest.net doesn't have any problems because those are not as time sensitive. Is there a way I can test my connection without having to setup my own fake...

I'm a bit concerned about the difficulty of setting those up. I read that its quite hard. Is that the case? What do you think of something like: TP-Link Archer AC4000 ? I saw it got top review on Wirecutter.

Any specific recommendations for a model and router that are compatible? I'm browsing this site: https://www.ui.com/products/#default With my current setup I also find that my WiFI speeds drop about 50-75% by the time they reach my bedroom so I have a Netgear extender in the bedroom to help...

So my Xfinity internet max speeds are plenty high, but often it slows to a crawl or is easily interrupted making video calls impossible. I find that a reboot of my router is enough to bring everything back to full speed, but this happens often. For best performance I find a daily reboot is...

I think I found the issue! My Apple Watch has a magnetic buckle which was triggering the laptop to fall into sleep mode (which normally happens when the lid is closed). I discovered it from this post: https://superuser.com/questions/392936/computer-randomly-goes-into-sleep-mode I got a...

Hello My laptop often drops into sleep mode randomly. I checked all the power settings and it is not set to turn off anything for multiple hours, yet it sometimes falls asleep randomly. I've noticed it usually happens when I have multiple astronomy USB cameras and peripherals setup. The...

as long as it supports USB-C, can i guarantee it will work all the way to dual-link DVI? or does the USB-C also need to be thunderbolt?

is display port the only port that supports this? will thunderbolt or USB-C work too?

I've got a Dell 30" LCD which only accepts dual link DVI. How do I find a laptop that supports its sole resolution of 2560x1600? Will a laptop with HDMI work? how about display port? how about USB-C only? how about thunderbolt? How do I know if a laptop supports the dual link DVI standard?

I purchased mine from eBay and it didn't come with the software...oops! Should have read it more carefully....

So I recently purchased a LG Blu-ray Disc Rewriter model WH10LS30 from eBay (new condition). Whenever I put a Blu-ray disc in, I hear clicking noises separated by a second or two. After a while, PowerDVD 11 trial version comes up and the video starts up fine. When I get to the halfway point, I...

Has anyone tried one of these? What kind of speedup can we execpt from day to day operations such as: copying large files? 10x faster than normal? running applications? .001 sec to load IE? boot up times? under 1 sec...

samsung models are usually such that a 23" is priced around $650, 26" around $850, 32" around $1100 they can get away with it since they usually get high praises for their LCDs

Is this equivalent to another Samsung model?
