Mac OS Big Sur 11.0.1 is the latest update to Apple Macs. If you use a VPN on your mac, you might want to reconsider installing Big Sur. Testing has indicated from beta version through to current version that VPN software does not route all internet traffic upstream to the remote system and in fact Apple apps bypass the VPN mechanism entirely and directly communicate with external servers. What does this mean? For anyone not concerned with privacy, no immediate issue, however this loophole could be exploited to allow malware to transfer out any data stored on your mac to a remote server. All this from the company that espouses how important your privacy is. You cannot make this stuff up, way to go Apple.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bigsur #VPN #privacyissue #macrepairs #applemac #computerrepair #pcrepair #laptoprepair #goldcoast #goldcoastbusiness #computerservice #macos #windows #windows10 #macosx #ios #imac #macbook #macbookair #macmini #macpro #imacpro #macbookpro #parallels @macrepairsgoldcoast

Just a quick shout out, we're closed today Wednesday 28 October 2020, only because we're moving house. Business will be open again in the same location 5/7-11 Ereton Drive Arundel on Thursday. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #movingsucks #closedtoday #bebacktomorrow

Apple have a new iPad Pro 11" out tomorrow. This one has the option of a new keyboard and trackpad case that the iPad connects to easily via magnetic attachment. This could be a real laptop alternative now that it has a decent keyboard option. With a processor that is faster than most laptops and advanced WiFi and bluetooth, this could be the device that really surpasses the MacBook and MacBook Air models and competes head on with the new MacBook Pro 13". Plus it detaches quickly and easily just like an iPad should. We can't wait to get our hands on one.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #a12Z #apple #macrepairs #applemac #computerrepair #pcrepair #laptoprepair #goldcoast #goldcoastbusiness #computerservice #ipados #macbook #macbookair #macbookpro @macrepairsgoldcoast

There's still a lot of love ❤️out there for this particular Apple Mac. The A1278 13" model ran from 2008 to 2012, but was still being manufactured in the same 2012 specification until around 2016. From a repairers point of view these machines were a dream compared to today's nightmare models that have been given an awful score of 1 out of 10 for repairability by independant right for repair group iFixit. These earlier models could have memory upgrades, hard drive upgrades, easy to replace batteries, trackpads and optical drives, but with more difficulty it was also possible to replace the keyboard and LCD assemblies as well. Spare parts are readily available for these machines so if you want to squeeze the last bit of life out of your A1278 mac, get in contact with us to see what we can do for you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #repairs #macrepairs #applemac #computerrepair #pcrepair #laptoprepair #goldcoast #goldcoastbusiness #computerservice #macos #macosx #macbook #macbookair #macpro #macbookpro #parallels #macrepairsgoldcoast

If you're thinking of installing the free MacOS Catalina update on your Apple Mac, better think real carefully about what might not work after the installation. Apple has dropped 32bit application support completely. Say goodbye to every app and utility that has not been updated in the past two years, Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 - gone, even Office 365 32bit installations - gone. Older Adobe Creative Suites - gone (except CC subscription) although many plug-ins and filters will not work post install. iPhoto - gone, iTunes - gone. For DJ's using Traktor or Rekordbox - gone. Many utilities / games you haven't even thought of will not work with Catalina.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So if you don't do real work on your Mac, you should be fine, but for everyone else creating, bewarned there could be significant issues and unwanted side-effects from going ahead with the update.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #MacOSCatalina #Catalinasux #youhavebeenwarned #macrepairs #macupgrades #applemac #appletech #adobeCS #traktor #rekordbox #itunes #iphoto #macrepairsgoldcoast

Are you looking at upgrading your website to a new e-commerce site? It might be worthwhile discussing platform choices with us, as whichever platform you choose will need to interact with marketing, accounting, inventory, email systems and more. We have hands on experience with Shopify, WordPress and Magento platforms and can consult on the best choice before you set off on the updating path.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #e-commerce #websiteplatforms #shopify #wordpress #magento #bigcommerce #zencart #goldcoastbusiness #macrepairsgoldcoast

We're getting early reports of the new Mac OS Catalina 10.15 breaking Microsoft Office 2011 installations. So for those early adopters using the outdated Office for Mac 2011 version, beware that the free upgrade to Catalina can come with some unexpected costs. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #macrepairs #computerrepairs #MacOSCatalina #MSOffice⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #goldcoastbusiness #macrepairsgoldcoast

We're hearing there are still a lot of people on the Gold Coast frustrated with internet service. Whether it's poor speeds, lack of availability of NBN, poor NBN connection due to technology limitations or not yet rolled out in your area, there are still a few options out there.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you're still suffering, we may have a few options for you that won't break the bank. If you'd like to check on your options, get in touch with us.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #internetspeed #NBN #NBNfails #ADSL #goldcoastinternet #computerrepairs #macrepairsgoldcoast #goldcoastbusiness
