My pro controller is not usb charged
Doesn’t work it’s connected but doesn’t work.
What model controller are you using?
can you please explain how to get Profile Manager to open with FIrefox on Mac?
Open Firefox, then type in “about:profiles” into the address bar and press the return key
@@EasyOSX I know about this method, thank you. I was asking about how to make it pop up when you open the Firefox browser. Actually what I want to make is two separate shortcuts for two profiles, but I'm not sure if you can do it on Mac.
tyyy
lol Adobe wants $29 a month to do this "premium feature"! Thank you so much!
Idk why but it doesn't work for me. I'm using macOS version 12.6.7 and my Firefox version is 129.0.1 (64-bit). I went through the video multiple time but I'm still unable to find out why it's not working.
What part is not working exactly?
@@EasyOSX no need i just needed to restart my mac for some odd reason. also, how do i revert this change if i ever wanted to? do i just delete the folder and or the CSS file?
You can, or you can just disable the legacy toolkit in about:config. That will basically tell it to ignore the file.
Great video! For some reason my Apple TV for some reason got disconnected and did not bring the menu on the tv so far it’s working. Thanks to your video.
Doesn't get any easier! Thank yo so much!
I have a Dino pro controller do you know what I might have to do to connect it?
It has to be an official, first-party Nintendo controller. Third party ones like Dino are not guaranteed to work even if blessed by Nintendo.
@@EasyOSX ok, thank you for letting me know
I can't even find MacOS Monterey on my app store :(
apps.apple.com/us/app/macos-monterey/id1576738294?mt=12
montery downloads and just goes to insall and says checking null and freezes there ?? i need to get back to Montery asap
Bot sure I’m following. What’s going on exactly?
@@EasyOSX i download the OS go to install and it says checking Null as the OS install screen is on and does nothing else, i have to force quit
What version of the OS are you running at the moment?
@@EasyOSX i started with Montery but went backwards to Mojave and now im stuck, i need to go back so i can use Logic X
So you're actually wanting to revert back to an older version of MacOS?
Bro, that was amazing. Thank you for your help and I honestly bless you to work part and be successful one day and good luck to you and thanks for saving my life today.
❤
u saved my life ! thank you mannnn
Does it work with IOS 17?
That it does
thank you so much you are awesome
is there any way to remove the automatic power saving from the ps4 controller when using with appletv?
Not that I’m aware of
Thank you so much! My LaunchPad got all messed up after upgrading the system. The terminal script still works even in 2024 for macOS Sonoma 14.6.1.👍
My password isn’t opening it anymore
What do you mean?
You are the man!
I did this and when o Toggle it my coolers just go all pink and stuff idk what happend? Can some 1 help?
What color change did you set in Settings?
@@EasyOSX I just checked and it was all pink and stuff but I switch it to gray and it works now 😁
How do I actually make function of the power button by single pressing it to open up an app you want to interact with? I rather just tap it 1 timer than 3…
You can’t set to one tap since that’s locked to wake/sleep. Sorry
Thank you so much one more time🌴
short and sweet thanks
Thank you☺
It’s too complicated. I hate this remote. Was watching something on Discovery Plus. Accidentally sat on the remote and it changed my tennis commentary to Greek now I can’t get it back to English!
Well that’s one way to learn Greek, haha. But seriously, it depends on the app, but if you tap up you should be able to pull up settings for that particular app and change languages
Is there a way to keep the menu bar?
I’m using Windows btw
Like where it says File, edit, etc or something else?
@@EasyOSX yeah
Press Alt to show the menu bar temporarily. Click View, select Toolbars in the drop-down menu, then click "Menu Bar". Once it's checked it should always remain up there
link does not look like the one in your video when I click it.
Which one?
Its save???
Do you mean is it safe?
W
very good
I was separating the 2 commands to add Homebrew to PATH incorrectly & this helped, appreciate it!
Omg, thanks so much! I was trying to connect it to my blue tooth but I didn’t release I h needed to update it Your’re life saver thanks!💗
thank you! subbed
Does it work if Iam geting error 403, and can’t reinstall os.?
Sounds like it’s having trouble connecting to the network and trying to network boot. Double check your date and time are correct and run the upgrader or try the bootable flash drive method
Finally fixed it, but i had troubles to make bootable usb. After 10 try’s it’s actually worked
OMG YOUR THE BEST ❤❤❤❤ thank you 🙏
Thanks for all of the videos on setting up a terminal. New to Mac and trying to familiarize myself and set everything up! If I could make a suggestion, I would love to see a video on Mac shortcuts that you use daily both in the terminal and outside of it! Thanks a million brother
I like that video idea. I do have an older article on my website about common keyboard shortcuts. There's not a dedicated Terminal section, so I'd need to add that. But I think doing something like that for Mac OS, particularly ones I find useful and aren't as common, is a great idea. Once I get off hiatus (personal life is a whirlwind right now) and can make videos again, that's one I'll look at. Thanks for the suggestion! In case you want the article: easyosx.net/2011/09/05/list-of-common-mac-keyboard-shortcuts/
24th comment
Why the fuck would you start off without demonstrating how to power on with the remote?
Well typically any button press will wake up the TV
doesnt even allow me to download the pkg, says require mac os x
What OS are you running right now
Doesnt work on my Mac. I habe a macbook from late 2008 with 4GB of RAM and when I try to open the .pkg file, is says that it cannot be installed on my Mac. I need some help. Currently macOS Leopard is running on my mac.
You can’t upgrade directly from Leopard to El Capitan. You need to go to an intermediate version like Snow Leopard to El Capitan.
Hello, can I use the "controller with both joycons pluged in" ?? thx
Yes you can, just have to do the toggle to sync them like I showed in the video
What about ENHANCED switch pro controllers cause it says connected but nothing really works
Is that the brand Enhanced?
no, on the box it says Nintendo switch (if that’s what you mean). The box says “Enhanced Wireless Controller”, its officially licensed by Nintendo
@emiliano-651 Sounds like it’s a PowerA controller, because that’s the thing that shows up when I search “Nintendo Switch Enhanced wireless controller” If that’s the case then no. Only official, 1st party controllers are supported. If Nintendo didn’t make it, then Apple doesn’t support it. Even those blessed by Nintendo
Thankyou for your help brotha
Simple and easy love this
I downloaded the El Capitan installer from the Archive link in your other video. I'm using Sonoma 14.5 in an attempt to make a bootable disc for a 2009 Macbook pro. When I try to open the installer using my Sonoma 14.5 Mac, I get a message that says "this copy of the "install OS X" application is too old to be opened on this version of OS X. I'm curious if there's a way around this? Thank you.
What utility are you using to make the bootable installer? I'd recommend continuing to follow that El Cap video's instructions
if you are watching this in 2024: The file location on windows is: C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME_OR_SOMETHING_SIMILIAR\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\SOME_RANDOM_STUFF.default-release For the changes to take effect I had to close firefox and re-open it again.
Brilliant!! That button floating around my screen for that one device I use was throwing me over the edge! Thank you so much!!!!
Your tutorial was amazing, but I have a small problem. I'm a Windows user and watched all throughout the video but for some reason, the Minimize, Maximize and Close buttons on the top right of FF disappeared too. I don't usually use those TBH, but most Windows apps have that, so can I ask if it's possible to get it back?
I’d have to go back to my Windows box and check things there, but I don’t believe if you’ve followed everything it should remove the buttons (unless something has changed)
@@EasyOSX I just basically copy the code and did nothing else, tried to fix it, and it turns out that the code you provided was for Mac only, so it's kinda broken when using it on Windows.
I used this on my Windows machine back before and didn't have that problem with it other than changing where I put the flexible space (Right side for the windows' controls vs left in the video)
@@EasyOSX I'm also facing this issue, but I'm on linux. Not that I reaaaally need those buttons, but for aesthetics purposes it'd be nice to have them without adding a title bar. I see that you can just enable the title bar checkbox under "customize toolbar..." , you get the buttons also, but now you also added that space on top
@anonimusnotengo4627 Might depend a bit on your distro and the DE it’s using to be fair. I’m mostly on the Debian side of things either with Gnome or Cinnamon myself.
