    is there a way to alter the sing-in screen back to what Ventura had? Apple has a fascination with giant ugly clock fonts. What I mean is in Ventura the box to put your password to sign in was right in the middle of the screen. Now it down at the bottom and this giant rubbish font clock is taking up most of the top. I have a few disability's and it would be much easer for me if the screen sign in was back in the middle.M

    Since I’m grading to Sonoma from Monterey, the two most common things I do are both not working. My Logitech C920e camera will occasionally flicker one frame, and it’s usually the bottom half or bottom fourth of the image. And recording H.264 files in OBS or prism studio results in footage that gets choppy, the frame rate looking like it’s 3 FPS.
    I wanted to downgrade back to Monterey, but I need a USB boot drive to do so. Things seemed to work better in safe mode. The flicker started to come back after about an hour, but it was much less. However, I could record H.264 files fine. What a mess!

    Sonoma completely messed up my iCloud data.
    Constantly synching but thats Not the Problem.
    It made several copies of different Folders, contents spread seemingly arbitrarily between These copies.
    Now i still dont know if a Future Update is going to Reverse/fix this but more importantly i dont know what data is lost.
    I have a timemachine Backup, but Paying monthly for Apple plus thinking my stuff would be Save and then for this to Happen sucks big time.

    MacOS Sonoma, being an older version of the operating system, may encounter various issues. Common problems include slow performance, software compatibility, and security vulnerabilities. To address these issues, regularly update your system to the latest version, uninstall or replace incompatible software, and use reliable antivirus software to protect your computer. Additionally, maintaining a clean system by removing unnecessary files and performing regular maintenance tasks can improve overall performance.

    if you found temperature increased, and laggy, check your activity monitor, because there's "fileproviderd" process that eat a lot CPU Usage and also on Disk, its writing a lot data, like 10Gb in around 10 minutes, also in me 150Gb under one day. yes very dangerous for SSD TBW.
    how to fix it, turn off al sync of iCloud Drive jn Settings - iCloud, i disable the all sync lever, or turn it off, then the "fileproviderd" is stopping it's activities

      @aoyun6 Před 9 měsíci

      check your activity monitor, if you found "fileproviderd" eating the CPU usage and also writing very big Data on disk, that's the iCloud Drive bug, disable all iCloud drive sync, i was report this bug to Apple today, and they respond it, they will fix it on next features update.
      im using MBA M1, and in my case its already writing 150Gb, eating my SSD lifespan, also made the whole system slowly and the temperature on TG Pro increased, for idle normally is 37-39 it was over 49-60, that's made laggy.
      and the "fileproviderd" sometimes using over 100% usage, sometimes it was 30% usage, but still the crazy writings will affecting the SSD TBW
      if you only found "mdworker" process, that's normal, it was indexing process.
