I never had the issue either. But then I don't have any widgets loaded because I don't know what they are for really. If you don't have the widgets loaded, then it won't give you update trouble. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list. If you

I could use 32 GB today to run more virtual machines at the same time. I’d like to be able to run 20 at a time or more. I would think a lot of film editors and other people would have a use for it. What I found most interesting about the article is how similar the chips are even I5

Re: Intel's chip design, not Apple's choices, reason behind Thunderbolt 3 & RAM issues in new MacBook Pro

Well, according to what I was reading today, next year. Better chip, cheaper prices. And frankly, what does the average person do that needs more than 16 GB of RAM? You say we will have to wait, as though you are going to do something that requires more than 16 GB. What would that be, really?

Re: iTunes update issue

The odd thing is, that widget doesn't seem to be in my widgets area under extensions in the first place. When I tried to update, I didn't have to uncheck anything. Maybe I got lucky, but it just seemed to work over here. Could it be the difference in me being on El Capitan and not Sierra on

Re: iTunes update issue

You would just need to have it disabled for the update I'd think. Then you could re-enable the widget as you like I'd guess. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list. If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if you

OK, so, once unchecked, and then installed, can we then re-enable it, or do we need, for now, to leave it off. --- Christopher Gilland JAWS Certified, 2016. Training Instructor. i...@gillandmarketing.com Phone: (704) 256-8010. - Original Message - From: "Larry Thacker Jr."

Did you check the "extensions" pane in system preferences to see if the iTunes widget is enabled there? If it is, then you can uncheck the box that enables the iTunes widget and then you should be able to get the update. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac

iTunes update issue

New problem today and I am having no luck with a Google search to turn up the answer. Either nobody else is seeing this or it’s too new I guess. When I try to update iTunes, I get the message "“iTunes.app” can not be updated because its extensions are in use by “Notification Center.app”.

Andrew, The 5 is smaller than the 6. The 6 looks kind of like an iPhone 6S, but I think it may be a bit thinner. Also, check and see what software version you are running. the 5 does not run IOS 10. Cheers, Donna > On Nov 1, 2016, at 1:07 PM, Andrew Lamanche wrote: > > Hi,
