In this episode, Levi Gobin demonstrates how to prepare your Mac for beta testing by creating a second volume on your Mac's internal disk to install and run beta versions of the operating system. This way, you can run the beta when you want, but continue to use your Mac with the current shipping version of macOS. To create a volume to install macOS betas on:Open Disk Utility (located in the Utilities folder).Select your startup disk (usually called Macintosh HD) in the table, and choose “Add APFS volume” from the context menu (accessed by pressing VO-Shift-M).Name the volume (it can be any name) and if you want to specify a minimum and maximum amount of storage space for it, click size options, define your parameters, and click OK. Otherwise, click Add to create the volume, which will share space with your startup disk.Once the volume has been created, download the current shipping version of macOS from the App Store, and follow the onscreen instructions to install it, a process that is demonstrated in the episode. At the point where the installer confirms that macOS will be installed on your current startup disk, click show all disks, and select your newly created volume. Once the installation completes, your new copy of macOS will start as if the Mac was new from the factory; follow the onscreen instructions in the Setup Assistant, a process that is also demonstrated.To obtain a macOS beta, if you haven't already, sign up for either the developer or public beta program. Once you've signed up, an option will appear in System Settings > General > Software update to install updates from that channel. Once a beta is seeded, you should be able to install it like any other update.To switch between the two volumes, you can either go to System Settings > General > Startup disk to select a default volume that the Mac will start from each time it is restarted or turned on, or select a different volume as your Mac starts. To do this, shut your Mac down, press and hold the Power button until the startup options dialog appears, interact with the volume you want to start up from, and click Continue.If you no longer want to run the beta on your Mac, you can remove the volume by starting up from your primary volume, opening Disk Utility, selecting your secondary volume in the table, and choosing “Delete APFS volume” from the context menu (accessed by pressing VO-Shift-M).TranscriptDisclaimer: This transcript was generated by AI Note Taker – VoicePen, an AI-powered transcription app. It is not edited or formatted, and it may not accurately capture the speakers' names, voices, or content.Levi: Hello, everyone. In today's recording, I'm going to show you how to dual boot macOS. This might be useful for when you want to beta test a new version, such as macOS 16, which is coming out here in June 2025. I'm going to show you how to dual boot macOS and how you can test the new beta without messing up your current operating system. So first, what we need to do is create an APFS volume.Levi: And the way we do that is by going to Disk Utility. Disk Utility is located in your Applications folder, then under Utilities, Disk Utility. But an…

In this episode, Dave Nason demonstrates how to create and use text replacements, short snippets of text which are substituted with frequently used words, sentences, or emojis when typed, on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. This may be useful if you, for example, need to frequently give people directions to your home. Rather than manually type out the directions, you could configure a text replacement so that several sentences could be inserted simply by typing a few characters of your choosing. You may also wish to use it to speed up typing longer words, or even to type emojis that you use regularly.On iOS and iPadOS, text replacements can be created and managed in Settings > General > Keyboard > Text replacement. Here, you can double-tap an item to edit it, or delete it using the "Delete" rotor action. To create a text replacement, double-tap the Add button in the upper right corner, type or paste the word, sentence, or emoji you want inserted in the "Phrase" field, type the text snippet in the "Shortcut" field, and double-tap Save.On macOS, text replacements can be created and managed in System Settings > Keyboard > Text replacements. Navigate the table using the up and down arrow keys, Tab to individual cells to edit them, or delete them using the Remove button. To create a replacement, click the Add button, type the text snippet in the "Replace" field, type the text you want to be inserted in the "With" field, and click Add.Assuming your devices are signed into the same Apple Account, text replacements are synced between them, allowing you to, for example, create text replacements on your Mac, and use them on your iPhone or iPad.TranscriptDisclaimer: This transcript was generated by AI Note Taker – VoicePen, an AI-powered transcription app. It is not edited or formatted, and it may not accurately capture the speakers' names, voices, or content.Dave: Hello there, David Nason here. I hope you are doing well. Today I wanted to give you a quick demo of how to use text replacements or typing shortcuts on both iOS and macOS. Text replacements are a really handy feature for speeding up your typing, helping you type out regular words or phrases or even you know, full on sentences that you want to type more quickly.Dave: You can type as little as two characters as your shortcut and then you hit space or punctuation like a full stop or a comma and it will expand out into the word or phrase that you have set. So it's really handy. There's probably three key ways which I use it. One would be for kind of longer sentences that I need to type semi-regularly. So, for example, directions to my house.Dave: If a friend is coming over or a taxi driver or a delivery person, that kind of thing. Rather than having to type out those directions each time I'm in that situation, I have a shortcut set up. So I type D-I-R-1. and I hit space and it will turn into those directions. I have one that's Dior2 as well, which is a more detailed version of those directions.Dave: I also use it then, number two, for kind of regular words and phrases that I might use when I'm texting people or emailing. I borrow some of these from contracted Braille, others I have made up myself. So things like YD for yesterday, TM for tomorrow, TAFN…

In this episode, Siddarth walks you through the process of checking your MacBook's battery capacity—an indicator of how well the battery retains a charge compared to when it was new. He also explains how to determine the cycle count, which tracks the number of times the battery has been completely drained and recharged.Battery capacity can be viewed by going to System Settings > Battery and clicking the "Show detail" button. Cycle count can be viewed by opening System Information (located in the Utilities folder), selecting "power" in the table, and pressing VO-J to jump to the information pane.TranscriptDisclaimer: This transcript was generated by AI Note Taker – VoicePen, an AI-powered transcription app. It is not edited or formatted, and it may not accurately capture the speakers' names, voices, or content.[00:00.05] You're listening to an AppleVis podcast. Hi, welcome to a short tutorial on how to check the charging cycles count on MacBook. So ever wondered how to check your MacBook battery cycles?[00:00.25] When we get into settings of a Mac and when we interact in the battery, we can only find the details of the battery health. It might be 100% or 95% or 90%.[00:00.39] Depending on your usage. But how to find the battery cycle count or how many times we have charged our battery? For that, in this demonstration I'll be showing you how we can find it and how we can understand the overall battery details. So first, I'll show you what we can get in the settings battery of Mac. So I'm on my MacBook...[00:01.08] ...desktop. I'll open my settings with VO-M (system settings) and I will navigate here to the battery with VO-Right Arrow (battery) and I'll interact here.[00:01.35] Alright, my current battery level is 59%. I just navigate here by VO-Right. Sorry, I'll interact here. My Low Power Mode is set to only on battery. I don't need the Low Power Mode activated when I'm connected to my charger.[00:01.54] Okay, Battery Health. And if I right arrow again with VO-Right – Normal – Show Detail – right, I'll hit VO-Space. So it's great that even after one and a half month – sorry, one and a half year – of my Mac, still the battery health is Normal. And we'll see how much percent the battery health is.[00:02.19] Right, and go... VO-Left here, to the left side of the screen. Yes, that's right. It's 100%. And I feel it's a great...[00:02.35] ...battery. I like the way battery optimizes on Mac more than the iPhone. Maximum capacity – the maximum capacity is 100% – but we can't really see the cycle count here. For that, what we have to do is, first, I'll close the settings...[00:02.53] Right. I'll open the search box again with Command-Space – Spotlight. Spotlight Search. Alright, here I will type "System Information". If I just type “System” I get the filtered it here – S-Y-S-T-E-M – some information – space – I just type I-N-F...[00:03.15] ...it will be already taken, so just hit Enter here. Excellent. So here, you can get all the details regarding your hardware, your Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, audio devices, whatever.[00:03.31] Now, we need to find something called “Power.” And I'll interact here. I interacted with the VO-Down Arrow, VO-Shift-Down Arrow. I keep going right with VO-Right. You don't need all these things. I'll just keep moving…

In this episode, Tyler demonstrates how to get weather information in your Mac's menu bar, useful if you, for example, want to be able to quickly access such information but don't want to deal with widgets or the Weather app.To add weather information to your Mac's menu bar, go to System Settings > Control Center, and choose "Show in menu bar" from the "Weather" popup menu. The temperature for your current location, if the Weather app has previously been granted access to it, should then appear in the status menus. Clicking the temperature should reveal a dialog with the current temperature, other applicable information about current conditions, an "Hourly forecast" group showing the expected conditions for the next four hours, and a button to open the Weather app.TranscriptDisclaimer: This transcript was generated by Aiko, an AI-powered transcription app. It is not edited or formatted, and it may not accurately capture the speakers' names, voices, or content.Hey, Apple Vissers, Tyler here, with a quick tip for how to get weather information in your Mac's menu bar.This is something that you've been able to do with third-party apps for a number of years now, but with the release of macOS Sequoia 15.2, this functionality has been integrated directly into the operating system.This may be useful if you want to get quick weather information such as the current temperature or hourly forecast for the next few hours without needing to deal with the weather app, a third-party app, or a notification center or desktop widgets.I find the menu bar I can use with far fewer keystrokes than the weather app or widgets.So to set this up, all I have to do is go into system settings, control center, and choose menu bar under the weather pop-up menu.So to demonstrate that, I'm going to go to system settings on my Mac.C for control center, control center, and interact with the scroll area.And because weather is near the bottom, I'm going to jump to the bottom with V-O-globe-right arrow.Weather, show in menu bar.If it's off for you, just choose that from this pop-up menu.So now I'm going to close out of this, and I'm going to press V-O-M twice to access the status menus.Okay, and here I am on 29 degrees Fahrenheit.To access more information, I'll just V-O space.Okay, so this is the top of the dialog, V-O-R-A, we have hourly forecast.Depending on the current conditions, there may be other information here too, such as a severe weather warning if one's in effect, or if the feels like temperature is significantly different from the actual temp.But I'm going to interact with the hourly forecast group now.And we have a few hours, so 6 p.m., 7 p.m., 8 p.m., 9 p.m., 10 p.m., and that's it.So not the full 24-hour forecast that you get in the weather app, but if you want to get hourly forecast for the next four hours, this is quite useful.So I'm going to stop interacting, and V-R-A, open weather, and that's the only things you have in this dialog.The temperature, any other information as relevant, the hourly forecast group, and the open weather button.If I hit that, it'll just take me into the weather app.Now to get out of this dialog, at the time of recording, January 2025,…

In this episode, Tyler demonstrates how to disable predictive text suggestions on macOS.As you type on your Mac, macOS by default attempts to finish words and phrases it thinks you're trying to type. If you find that hearing these suggestions spoken by VoiceOver is more distracting than helpful, you can turn them off by going to System Settings > Keyboard, clicking the Edit button under the "Text input" heading, and turning the "show inline predictive text" switch off.transcription:Disclaimer: This transcript is generated by AIKO, an automated transcription service. It is not edited or formatted, and it may not accurately capture the speakers' names, voices, or content.Hey, Apple vissers, Tyler here, with a quick tip for how to disable predictive text suggestions on macOS.By default, as you type on your Mac, macOS attempts to finish words and phrases that it thinks you're trying to type.While this may increase the speed of text entry for some, if you're a voiceover user, you may find that hearing these suggestions spoken while you're trying to type is more distracting than helpful, in which case you can turn them off.To do that, go into system settings, keyboard, hit the edit button under the text input heading, and turn the show inline predictive text switch off.And I'm going to demonstrate that now, I'm going to system settings on my Mac, k for keyboard, vio command h to get to the text input heading, vio right, edit, and at the leftmost of this dialog, k, that's what we want, vio right, scroll area, interact with vio shift down arrow, and vio right until I find the setting I want, show inline predictive text, if I vio right once more, show inline predictive text off switch, it's off for me because I turned it off.If it's on for you and you want to turn it off, just press vio space, then stop interacting with the scroll area, with vio shift up arrow, and vio right to done, hit it, and here we are back in keyboard settings.So now as you type, you will not hear text suggestions predicted by macOS, which could almost ironically increase your speed of text entry because this feature is off and is no longer giving you distracting or potentially distracting feedback.So that's a tip for how to disable predictive text suggestions on macOS, I hope you found it helpful.Peace.Thank you.

In this episode, Tyler demonstrates how to assign your own keyboard shortcuts to menu bar commands that lack default shortcuts in macOS.An example of where this may be useful is in System Settings, where many settings can be quickly accessed from the View menu, however none of these commands have default keyboard shortcuts mapped to them. To create your own shortcut for a command:Open the app that contains the command, and note exactly how it's displayed in the menu bar; you'll need to enter this later.Open System Settings > Keyboard, and click Keyboard shortcuts.Select "Application shortcuts" in the table, and click Add.Choose the app the shortcut will apply to from the "Application" popup menu. note that you cannot map a shortcut that's already in use by that app.Type the exact name of the command in the "Menu title" field. To enter an ellipsis (…) sign as part of the command, press Option-Colon.In the "Shortcut" field, type the shortcut you want to assign to that command, and click Done to dismiss the dialog.If the app containing the command you assigned a shortcut to is open, quit and reopen it for the change to take effect.

In this episode, Tyler demonstrates how to configure your Mac to announce the time automatically.To do this in macOS Ventura and later, open System Settings > Control Center > Clock options, and enable the "Announce the time" toggle.

The steps to do so are as follows:Choose Apple > System Settings, and select Lock Screen in the table.Click accessibility options and toggle the “VoiceOver” switch on.Click done.If FileVault disk encryption is turned on, which is the default, VoiceOver should start when the Mac boots and prompt for the username, and then prompt for the password if the username is entered correctly.

To do this, open System Settings, select Privacy & Security in the table, and click “FileVault turn off.”

Seems more responsive, but that could be a placebo effect.” - leebaseAnd Dan Scott provided a few thoughts of his own:“Everything is as it was before but it does feel a bit faster and less clunky to me.One minor thing that I like that I doubt anyone will really notice or care about, but in the About This Mac window, they went back to the simplified style that we had in earlier versions up to Mavericks. They changed it to include more info with Yosemite. I personally like this.The feature I was waiting for the most was Stage Manager. It's nice, and I like it, but I wish it would show all of your open windows. Instead, it only shows your 5 most recent windows and hides the rest so command+tabbing is still your best bet for cycling through open windows. Running Stage Manager hides the desktop icons, though this can be changed in the system settings, or just click the desktop. I'm not sure there's a real need for something like this, but it's a cool feature. It definitely works better on my external monitor. It just takes up too much space on the Air's little display.I'm not sure how I feel about the new System Settings layout yet. It's very much like iOS now, but I think I still prefer the more traditional System Preferences layout.”You can read more of Dan's first impressions on his Substack.Canonical releases Ubuntu 22.10 “Kinetic Kudu”The latest “will only be supported for a couple months” version of Ubuntu has been released. With some of the major updates being:* The default audio server is now PipeWire instead of PulseAudio.* Ubuntu 22.10 is shipped with the new 5.19 Linux kernel.* GNOME has been updated to include new features and fixes from the latest GNOME release, GNOME 43.* The new Steam snap available on Ubuntu Software includes the latest Mesa.One fascinating tidbit: Canonical does not once mention “Snap” packaging in their full release notes.Microsoft looking at changing how Linux boots, wants to require TPM 2.0Microsoft engineer, Lennart Poettering, has unveiled his (and, assuredly, Microsoft's) desires to tightly intertwine the Linux boot process with TPM 2.0.The TPM (Trusted Platform Module) of course, being created by Microsoft.While there are interesting — and valid — points made by Poettering (creator of systemd), the idea of making the mere act of “booting Linux” reliant on a locked down Microsoft specification… well… no sir, I don't like it.Linux to drop 486 support?This week, Linus Torvalds stated on the Linux Kernel Mailing list:“We got rid of i386 support back in 2012. Maybe it's time to get rid ofi486 support in 2022?”And then he followed that up by stating:“So I *really* don't think i486 class hardware is relevant any more.Yes, I'm sure it exists (Maciej being an example), but from a kerneldevelopment standpoint I don't think they are really relevant.At some point, people have them as museum pieces. They might as wellrun museum kernels.”Are we about to lose 486 support in Linux? Looks like it. Is that a huge deal? Probably not. But I don't like it.No, sir. I don't like it one bit.Microsoft ships ARM Windows computerWant a $600 Windows computer that 32 GB of RAM, 512 GB NVMe drive, a Snapdragon® 8cx Gen 3 CPU, and a thin little form factor?Microsoft will now sell you one.It's intended for developers (it's dubbed the “Windows Dev Kit 2023”), but it still looks rather nice. Even has an ARM native version of Visual Studio and Microsoft 365. And Windows running on this ARM box has WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux)… so you can do all your Linux-y stuff on it.The Lunduke Journal of Technology is a reader-supported publication.
