CygnusTM posted:Everybody raves about DaisyDisk. Why should I spend money on it when I can get Disk Inventory X for free? It visualizes the data in a different way, but it looks like it does the same thing. DaisyDisk scans really fast, even on this really ancient hard drive I have. Also I paid like $5 because it was on sale.

Oh, so in Mac software news Intuit sold Quicken to some firm, and the buyers have said they'll actually put developers on to make Mac Quicken more feature complete like the Windows version.

Axiem posted:Is there a good program out there for creating a floorpan for a house along with placing furniture, marking things like electrical outlets, and other stuff someone might want to do with a home they own? Preferably to keep long-term to play with future furniture arrangements, remodeling, and other changes like that? There's an iOS app called MagicPlan, I don't know how in depth it is or how much precision you need but it's definitely good for making basic floorplans.

MZ posted:My recovery partition in El Capitan won't boot up, I keep getting a kernel panic and it just restarts every time. I think you can run the installer and it will recreate it without reinstalling everything. I'd back up before just to be safe though.

Xabi posted:I've got a bunch of files numbered 1 to 50, but the file 1 is supposed to be no. 50 and 50 is supposed to be no. 1, etc. How do I best change it around? Some sort of fancy script? Yeah, if your files are named "1, 2, 3, ..., 50" and you want them to be named "50, 49, ..., 1" then you'd get a script to say basically "rename it to '50 - (n-1)' ", where n is your current file name.

Stare-Out posted:So why is Safari a piece of poo poo? I've used it since El Cap launched because Chrome is a huge memory hog and cooks my Mac's GPU for some reason. Otherwise Safari is fine but it crashes constantly. Almost always when I close another Safari window or the downloads thing it just abruptly quits. What extensions and/or plugins do you have? I've not had issues like that, at least not since I upgraded to El Cap.

Let me put it this way: working primarily in Office, and then opening in Google Docs, most if not all of your stuff is preserved. Working primarily in Google Docs, and then opening in Office? Most of your stuff is broken in some way. beefnoodle posted:What about with the latest version? Office 2011 is almost 6 years old. For me, I spend a lot of time in PowerPivot, so I don't use Excel on the Mac much, but when I do, it's from Office 15. Disclaimer: I have an ancient hard drive that makes everything painful to use. That being said, Office 2016 was *still* a major improvement over 2011.

This is a random shoutout but I love how in Safari in Sierra a link will open a new tab, and you can either close it or hit the back button but it automatically closes and returns you to your previous tab. It sometimes did that before when closing tabs but never with the back button.

Quantum of Phallus posted:So what's the big features with Sierra, just Siri? A lot more iCloud integration (you can backup your entire documents & desktop if you have the space, and if you run out of room it'll delete the local copy of those backed up files), Photos is smarter, a lot more Continuity support (you can unlock your Mac with an Apple Watch, and you can copy/paste from your Mac to your iPhone). There's other little things like adding tabs to all native MacOS apps (like maps, etc) and disabling plugins in Safari by default so people can get the gently caress off Flash. Oh and they introduced a new file system but it's extremely beta.

Krispy Kareem posted:I just updated Office 365 to 64bit yesterday and it's been buggy as hell and much slower. Usually the thing about 64bit Office is that macros don't work anymore. That's why people generally don't upgrade unless they have utterly massive Excel files.

I Am Crake posted:Universal Clipboard is good. I like tapback in iMessage, but that's a tiny difference. Siri is next to useless in practice, and I've only used it to set reminders. All in all it's basically the same as El Cap to me, but I like it all the same. Also Right Click -> Search with Google defaults to opening a new tab in Safari now.
