Re: Apple Watch Series and Roaming

[Michael Hawkins]

Thanks Tim,

I checked with Telstra yesterday. Roaming charges would apply and Telstra has 
such a small daily allowance (200mb) I’ve decided not to take the watch with me.

Cheers,

Michael

Possible to Upgrade macOS via App Store Purchased list?

[Alan Smith]

A serious question about a hypothetical situation - -

Is it possible for me to use the App Store Purchased history list to download 
(and then install) El Capitan (10.11) on another iMac that has Mavericks (10.9) 
installed? 

The background info:

The App Store Purchased tab lists all apps associated with a particular Apple 
ID.  Compatible apps installed on one iMac display the option to INSTALL on 
another iMac. The purchased history of macOS (OS X) releases up to El Capitan 
display the option to DOWNLOAD.

I’m having trouble downloading and installing High Sierra to my late 2009 iMac 
with Mavericks.  The Purchased history displays OS X releases from Mountain 
Lion to El Capitan which were installed on my late 2012 iMac.  This raises the 
possibility they could be used for the older iMac.

Some extra info that may be relevant in deciding to upgrade: In 2015 I had 
problems with the installation and later version update of Yosemite (10.10).  
MacWizardry found Yosemite was unstable and reverted to Mavericks.  (It’s been 
very reliable since, Daniel.). This might indicate an unresolved obscure 
internal problem that is also causing issues with installing High Sierra.  I 
never tried to install El Capitan on this computer.

Cheers
Alan.

My error Michael

The series 111 does have a SIM

I believe my advice re checking the Telstra site for overseas roaming charges 
is still relevant.

Re: Apple Watch Series and Roaming

[Tim Law]

Hello Michael

I suspect the Apple Watch does not have its own SIM card and connects via 
Bluetooth to the phone to do stuff with the outside world. Much like connecting 
your phone to the Bentley. 

Therefore it will make no difference where in the world you are as long as the 
phone and watch are close enough for the Bluetooth to connect. They will talk 
to each other. 

If you want to know if your Telstra SIM in your phone will work in New Zealand, 
also by default the watch functioning as you expect, then the best option is to 
read up on overseas roaming on the Telstra website as costs can be substantial. 

Regards

Tim

Re: Strange redirection has blocked Gumtree access ?

[Stephen Chape]

Hi Ronni.

Just got word back that Gumtree works fine with Chrome.
So looks like Safari requires attention ?

 Hi Stephen,
 
 What web browser is this happening on, Firefox or Safari?
 Ask her to try access Gumtree & login on another web browser?
 
 Clear the cache and remove cookies from the website that is causing the 
 problem.
 Your daughter would need to enter her login details again.
 
 cdn.districtm.io  could be associated with 
 handling Gumtree transactions?

Apple Watch Series and Roaming

[Michael Hawkins]

I recently bought a series 3 Apple Watch (cellular + GPS). My mobile phone 
contract is with Telstra. I intend travelling in NZ. Will I be able to link the 
watch with my phone while roaming there?

Cheers,

Michael
