A 2011 Mac would be upgradable, but later models around the 2014 forward were constructed differently. We have a 2012 Mac that was upgraded to 16 Gigs Ram, but there is no way I could upgrade my 2019 Mac. It’s decisions like this on Apples part along with many others that have fueled the right

brad, I note you ignored the greater focus of your message...which is that Apple can confirm or deny your stance as they are expert...and your conveying this information, speaking personally, lacks grace. On Sun, 19 Feb 2023, Brad Snyder wrote: The 2014 Mac mini has RAM and SSD that is

Youtubetv is a little cheaper at $64.99 .. and if you have TMobile, you can get it for $10/month off for at least the first year .. In my opinion it works better on the ATV than Direct TV. Also depending on your area, Spectrum has sever streaming packages that can end up around $50/month for

Hi all: I use Directv Stream with my Apple TV. Love the service.. hate the price tag. Price keeps going up constantly. I have the cheapest package and its now $70. Ridiculous. So, Does anyone have another streaming service they like that is cheaper than $70 and works on Apple tv pretty easily?

Bill, that is correct. It is a new sound. A lot of discussion on this list about it when it first came out. Most of us do not like it. Report your concern to Apple directly, not just to Apple Accessibility. One note, you will need to learn to pause after the tone before talking to Siri. There
