Macintosh

June 11, 2022

Meeting will be held in the Founders Suite of the Prescott Public Library, 215 E Goodwin St, Prescott, AZ.

Guests are welcomed to attend.

Program:

Short topic will be Mac Hardware Updates by Frank Croft. Apple does major announcements at WWDC then releases new hardware in the September time frame. However, they also do periodic releases through the year. The latest was the Mac Studio computer released in March this year. It was released with three new chips and lots of options for expansion. A new 27 inch monitor was also released. We will talk about both of these products and all the options. Presentation

Long topic will be Fixing Common Mac Problems by Frank Croft. MacOS is a reliable operating system, but every so often it has an issue and requires first aid. In this presentation, Frank will show you how to fix common Mac problems, such as a slow system, a spinning beach ball, crashing or unresponsive applications and more. Presentation

Program: MacOS Montery and new Mac hardware by Frank Croft.
Frank Croft is going to give us some insights about the next Mac OS (Monterey) and speak a little about the new Mac hardware. If you have the time, I suggest you go to Apple.com and watch the October 18 video about the new MacBooks. The performance specs for the M1 pro and M1 max chips has got me wondering whether it is time to upgrade. Frank? Presentation.

Short Topic: Using the Hallmark card software by Jim Romaine.
Jim Romaine is going to illustrate card making (just in time for the holidays).
