What do you call MacOS?

• crossroadsguy 3y ago
  Why? Mac OS. Same as you typed. I spell it macOS though ;-) Besides I won’t call it a service. I would call their substandard iCloud a service. You know what let’s talk about macOS and since we are talking about search let’s talk about Spotlight. God, everything is awful about it. What is worse is that you don’t even know what is happening. Suddenly your apps stopped turning up in search? Well there are interesting ways suggested on Apple support site to try. No didn’t work? Of course it didn’t. Then why not remove everything and then add the full disk and let it index and then remove it again and then try the selection you want to keep. Naah, didn’t work. That’s fine, it’s normal. Restart it. No no, do it couple of times. It takes few restarts for the indexing engine to get all warmed up. Oh you rather called Apple support? Yeah, they would do it properly. After helping you wipe your Mac twice the next step in the workflow is guiding you through the steps to drop your Mac at a service centre and you’ll get it back in a week or two with some magic sauce poured inside. It worked? Yup. Apple does it right every single time. It didn’t? You must be doing something wrong.
