    VPN Disables Sharing Mouse Between Mac Laptops

    So, I own an M2 MacBook Air and M3 MacBook Pro. I can share my Magic Mouse between both Macs. However, when the VPN is on, this function is disabled. Why is that, and how can I work around it?

    Can You Run System 7.5.3 On A G4 MDD?

    So, I backed up my old SCSI drives onto an internal SSD. My G4 is dual boot. However, as you see in this photo, one of the things I backed up from my old SCSI drives was System 7.5.3. Could my G4 MDD boot into it?

    Odd Problem with My iMac Power Button (27", 2011)

    So, this has been a problem that's been happening occasionally, but I'm not sure if it's getting worse or not. I have a 27" 2011 iMac. I sometimes have to press the power button a couple of times before it turns on. Could the power switch be failing?

No programs were on the computer. When I opened it up, I was stunned at how CLEAN it was inside! It became my main computer for a...
