"please enter your password" so I enter it *like 10 minutes pass, I have to walk away or jerk off or something* and now I have to force quit the app store and I still can't get what I want the only things I can install on this mac are things I have previously installed because as soon as it requests my password it hangs.. logging into icloud for my keychain? hang logging into account for app store? hang it even hung when I was setting this bitch up entering my password. I had to force reset, tried it again.. hung again.. I had to set up osx with no account loves to hang. which is ironic, coz its got a tiny dick

imagine being asked to pay more money for a part for your computer than the entire computer also take note anyone who is invested in apple making money - that was a third party vendor. they charge apple that and apple pay it. apple chose the more expensive more moronic option, rather than replacing the entire mac

things I thought a mac would be able to do have osx reinstall and set itself up like I had it before. I shouldn't need a time machine backup for it to remember my email accounts or what apps were installed?

shitface posted:counterpoint: you're too stupid to use a mac its actually amazingly disappointing how the solution to every basic problem I have with this mac is that it's my fault let me walk you through setting up osx, you tell me what I did wrong "what country do you live in" - I put in my country "what keyboard type" - thanks for asking, there is only one option. I choose it "set up wifi" - I enter my wifi password "turn on location services" - I click yes "please enter your apple ID" - I do... and it hangs. I repeated this entire scenario twice for fucks sake you flaming stupid faces... stop fuckin blaming me for osx and the hardware being a piece of poo poo "too stupid for mac, but clearly smart enough to excel at the worser and less intuitive operating system windows"

this isn't funny computer. my time isn't worthless here and yet the hours of janitoring I have to put into this mac is incredible

pirate windows? spending time janitoring? I accept that. it's part of the contract. I don't complain but janitoring a mac... isn't this why I paid literally thousands of dollars for a few chunks of poo poo, so this kind of bullshit was avoided

trying to make osx promotores feel bad, because they are bad people who should feel bad anyway I suspect the problem is because I am surrounded by broken morons, and its not me.. dingus at the shop who fixed it.. well on system information now my mac has no serial number coz he didnt flash the new board with the old serial number and coz osx is obviously some pansy rear end needy operating system that support monogomy (down with monogomy gently caress big tittied 21yo girls every day) and not an unemployed polyamourous lifestyle I NOW HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE SHOP AND THATS LIKE OVER AN HOUR ROUND TRIP gently caress gently caress fuckkkkk

no cost to me was my wife trying to run her business with no computer for over a week, relying on icloud which had not managed to save the latest version of her spreadsheets etc and losing that work and it would have been nice to have the laptop back to where it was but now I have to spend all that time setting up emails n poo poo again like I said. I expect to pour time and energy into a windows machine. I expect this mac to do the hard work for me and thanks to the lovely shop I have to take the computer back to get fixed AGAIN coz osx is a bitch about serial numbers the repair cost of this laptop terrifies me for owning it for much longer as its likely it'll break again in a month I guess

lets face it - the mac life is a life fraught with burden and despair encouraging others to own and run a mac is like when obese people encourage you to eat more cake

he hardware broke. how the hell is this my fault or me being bad? and sorry I assumed iCloud would do what it did on all my other apple devices, coz my Mac sure as hell didn't tell me it wouldn't be the Anawer to all my problems tell me.. can I back it up automatically to a network share

so as usual the answer is to spend more money, rather than use something I already have if I have to physically attach a drive in 2016 I probably won't bother coz I won't remember to do it often enough to make it worth it

this laptop is for my wife to manage her/our business. it's mostly emails and a few power pints and spreadsheets. anything of value should be on iCloud but didn't work so smoothly so I will investigate why it didn't seem to have saved the most recent things if the functionality to save the setup rather than a backup to the cloud doesn't exist I'll just go home disappointment rather than with a silly setup of plugging in an external and backing up manually like some kind of pidgeon

the biggest issue to be honest, because I actually dont store any data on this laptop except whats already in icloud, except when the whole thing hosed up the copies in icloud were months old, and I don't know why. did my wife somehow start saving them to the normal folders and not icloud folders? idk and there is no way to tell anymore. but I need to make sure everything she IS doing is getting iclouded

setting it up like it was with email accounts is a hassle but not really THAT big of a deal. putting a graphical signature on the osx email program is a bit of a pain in the rear end but I managed that too oh and having to enable tap to click. who in their right mind makes osx default to click to click. clicking on the trackpad is the worst

save dialogue? what the gently caress is this? you open numbers.. you make the spreadsheet and you close the lid on the latop whebn you're done. if you want you can click the little red close icon if you want it off the screen "saving things" is so 2004
