Help with Mac Mini

On startup the Mac will look for Bluetooth devices just make sure they are discoverable. If necessary you can turn on discoverability on the Mac when the Bluetooth System Preferences pane is open.

Its the initial set up that I mean where one puts in language,etc etc.

Which one did you get?

I like this one

Thanks. I’ll give that a try

Unfortunately it only supports Firefox. With Safari they seem to have open issues Privacy Badger should support Safari · Issue #549 · EFForg/privacybadger · GitHub

However for U Tube videos my preferred browser is Brave

which I have also mentioned in this thread.

The Mac Mini is good but a real headache installing some of the non Apple programs.

Really, Like what, are you talking about apple version programs running via emulator?
That would be interesting to know.

No more complicated than installing the same programs on non Apple PCs.

Have you ever tried to install VeraCrypt on Mac Sequoia?

No. Why would I?

Or was that a rhetorical question?

Crazy that with macos desktop one has to install an app just to change the mouse scrolling direction. The Americans are wierd.

How to Reverse Mouse Scroll Direction on macOS
System Settings Method (macOS Ventura, Sonoma, and newer):
• Open the Apple menu and select System Settings.
• Click Mouse from the sidebar.
• Find the Natural Scrolling option and toggle it off to reverse the scroll direction.

If you have Non-apple mouse you may need third-party software. That is the fault of the mouse maker who was too lazy to make it fully compatible.

Yes. But I have logitech mouse so it did not work with Natural scrolling setting.

Blame Logitech, not apple.
