Switch to BetterTouchTool. This powerful app lets you customize input devices — so you can take screenshots, snap windows, or complete complex sequences of actions using your preferred input device. For example, if your trackpad lags, you can switch to the keyboard, without losing any speed.
The first thing to try when you experience network problems after the update is to forget your network and then reconnect:. Some people experience problems with the cursor when using trackpad, even though their mouse works perfectly fine. But most likely, there are apps that interfere with the shut down process. Quit All fixes this super fast:. Very often, they are the trickiest. Some users reported they managed to fix this by moving their photos to a new folder and making it a source destination.
Monterey can also affect certain apps, both native Apple apps and popular third-party software. Every app has system compatibility. This means, after updating to macOS Monterey, you also need to update your apps so they work on the new system. It lets you select and update apps in one click. CleanMyMac X has a one-click option for that, too!
Just open Uninstaller and select all the apps you want to remove. Some people report Music acting strangely on the newly updated system. Part of this is new features. Part of this is just bugs. As we all rushed into trying it out, many people reported problems. AirPlay freezing, working painfully slow, or not working at all. So you might want to tweak them after restarting your Mac.
Make sure they are both connected to the same network. Then, try reconnecting via AirPlay. The universal fix is to use Beamer instead of AirPlay. Remote control, subtitles, playlists, you get all the ordinary perks. Unlike other streaming apps, Beamer natively streams content instead of mirroring screen, so you can expect the best quality.
If you notice your Time Machine takes longer than usual to back up files, it may be stuck. Deselect the option to back up automatically and then exclude some particularly large files from the backup.
One of the most long-awaited features on Monterey is Hide My Email — the privacy enhancement that lets you use random email addresses that will redirect incoming emails to your inbox. If you rely on Adobe software in your daily routine, we encourage you to hold off updating macOS. I have a MacBook Pro I'm trying to sell. Last night I erased the hard drive and was able to successfully reset the computer. Reply I have this question too I have this question too Me too Me too.

The difference between it and CleanMyMac X is that the latter shows you mostly junk files. At the same time, Optimized Storage shows large personal files that you yourself need to sort out. Poor internet connection is one reason for this.
Move your Mac closer to the Wi-Fi router — it needs an uninterrupted connection to download libraries of large files. A macOS download will not continue whilst your laptop is in sleep. Shut down your Mac and wait 10 seconds. Press the Power button and hold down Shift. Release the key when the login window pops up. Wait until you see the macOS Utilities window. In that previous menu, you also have access to Terminal.
Use this command-line tool to reset your password. The issue seems to be blocked on the level of your account. It is a much better way to listen and manage your books. You only need to download the one you are currently listening to, but you can access all of your books online when you want to switch. I had the same issue with the permissions. I have almost audiobooks. I cannot read more than a page because of a disability that affects my sight. So this is a major problem. I lost the use of 2 major apps when I upgraded to Mojave.
Apple is not the same company anymore. Sorry, Apple apologists but Apple is not the cozy cuddly company u think it is. I need help! If I need to download an app, which one should it be? Can you just store the audiobooks in a folder as files and only load the one you are listening to into the Books app?
I have around audiobooks and growing, a mix of DRM and open source. I do not want to use multiple different applications. I need to upgrade to take advantage of the new security features within the new macOS. I am scared and totally stressed out. I can understand Apple thinking that with ebooks the location hardly matters because the files are small, but either they forgot about, or want to discourage, people trying to manage large libraries of audiobooks from other sources.
This is a nightmare. All my audiobooks are gone, dissapeared. Mostly those, which I converted from audiobook CDs.
When I try to import it again, this is even worse, every single file is added as single book. Go to hell, Apple. But I do not have a clue how to point Books-App to that folder or other way round, move files and change library…. Then I added the new folder on my NAS in hope to get Books to re-import my audiobooks to the library and still keep the data stored on the NAS — guess that was a stupid idea….
Apple what did you do? Then, I point Plex the media server app, free of charge to that folder as a Library. Then, I am using an app called Prologue on my iPhone, which can browse the Plex library wirelessly and download books as needed to my iPhone. Will be happy to share more details if needed. What I find annoying is when you google help in transferring audio books to iPhone or iPod with the Catalina update the same mantra of using Finder to sync your device is repeated over and over…..
I have exactly the same problem. I can not access my 1. I hope that Apple is planning an update to fix this problem very very soon. However, I could not import books into this alias folder or recreate the plist file based on the audiobooks inside this alias folder.
And my audiobooks take up almost GB on my 1TB drive. Apple needs to make an easy way to fix this. I love the idea of moving the files over to an external drive… if they will let us.
Even though the speakers SUCK. And, manually replace them with new titles when finished. Otherwise, streaming directly from the online library, such as Audible cloud, could be a short term alternative. But honestly the purpose of breaking different types of media apart should be more better management.
Tried to update my audiobooks on my iPhone. I went to the library on the Mac and was able to listen to the books so the Mac is authorized. Thanks for the note about the Audible app. We were promised a much better media experience with Catalina.
Catalina has destroyed my audiobook collection. The player in Books is ridiculously small and useless. Catalina is just for Apple Music subscribers. Is it possible? And where can I find the instructions?
Joe: Is it an iPod touch? If so, skip that and just use the Audible app. If not, you use the Books app to import the book, then the Finder to sync. I have been clicking and dragging the audiobooks I have on my external hard drive into Books and I have been able to link it to my iPad or iPhone.
My issue is how to change the media data like I did in iTunes? Boris: There is no way to change the media location for Books… yet. So for now you either have to have all of your audio books stored on your local drive in the default location, or store them as files where you want and only bring in the books to the Books app that you need to listen to. What a nightmare. On Itunes, I had all my audiobooks as playlists so eg for a series I would number the playlist name and books in a folder were in the series order.
Now manually reorder in collections — after I have made them — I suppose. I foresee days of work for a vastly less satisfactory experience.
