SuperDuper 4 - NOT CREATING A BOOTABLE CLONE, 2020 until 27" iMac running macOS 15.7.9

I'm just curious if any other iMac users, running macOS 15.7.9 Sequoia, are having trouble with a recently released macOS 15.7.9 anmd SuperDuper 4 NOT creating a bootable clone.

Both software updates were recently installed and have been reinstalled, but I cannot get SuperDuper! 4 to create a proper clone.

I switched back to SuperDuper 3, it created a nice new bootable clone just as it always has.

I haven't contacted the developer yet, and I haven't seen much on the web about the new...

Icloud drive error? What happened?

So I have 2 laptops: An Air for work and a Pro for home. I set up I-cloud to maintain the same files on each device. When I enter data, or do an edit on one, it updates instantly on the other. The other day I entered a significant amount of data on one computer. A couple of days later I went in to add more data and everything from the previous entry was gone.
I checked the other computer...gone there too.What happened?
This has been working perfectly for a long time, and now I have no...

Is there a way to stop Firefox 152 from triggering a Dark Mode version of Finder when saving files in a Private window?

In macOS Big Sur 11.7, using Right Click > Save Image As... to save a file in a normal window in Firefox 152.0.x brings up a standard white/grey Finder window, but attempting to save an image in a Private window brings up a black/grey Finder window which is essentially worthless for sorting files, because there is simply not enough contrast between the grey text and the black background to be legible. Is there any way to fix this so that Private windows in Firefox open a standard...

Endnotes in Pages

I recently discovered endnotes in Pages and am getting carried away with them in the document :geek::rofl i am working on.

Just discovered something very handy. When i am reviewing a document and i come to an endnote, i double click on the endnote and the document jumps down so i can see the endnote. Saves a ton of scrolling time.
Endnotes BTW put the note at the end of the document.

ChatGPT web browser

I understand that there have been many post on web-browsers and search engines and everyone has their own personal favorite. The ChatGPT browser is a game changer! I have been using it for a few weeks now and it's like science fiction come true! You will find yourself in back and forth coversations with it! It has been a truly exciting experience and I recommend it to anyone looking for a new internet experience!

Set up RAID 1 on Mac mini with M2

I'm thinking about getting some SSDs & setting up a RAID1. A RAID1 with a hot spare would be extra nice to have. It's easy to do with Disk Utility. I have a 2023 mini with a M2 CPU. I'm limited to 2 USB-A & 2 USB-C. Do I need a NAS? I think that I use a Thunderbolt port, correct? I reckon that I need some kind of device to place the SSDs, correct? I've been thinking about getting a USB dock.

What do you suggest?

1Password app disappeared after latest update

I updated the OS yesterday to Tahoe 26.5.2.

Today, I noticed that the 1Password app icon in the Dock has been replaced by an opaque "?", and that the app no longer shows in Finder > Application (although the Safari extension app is still there). In Safari, the 1Password extension is still there and still works! Also, everything is fine with 1Password on my iPhone and iPad.

Has anyone had this happen before?

A search suggests to download the app again from 1Password Releases. Does...
