By default, Mojave prevents the installer for the enterprise version of iTunes 12.6.3 from working. This is a special version released AFTER v 12.7 which enabled a Mac to sync apps to iOS devices, a feature deleted in iTunes 12.7.
Today a friend at a Mac User Group meeting demonstrated how to use Pacifist app to access & install iTunes 12.6.5 (updated version of 12.6.3) onto his MacBook Pro which was running macOS 10.14.1.
Most fascinating.
Most odd. Needed to charge my Lumia 1520 (I’ll be using it as an internet source at Mum’s place tomorrow) and it totally refused to connect to wifi.
But a simple restart restored that.
@streakmachine I spotted that you were not going to grace us with your presence from a post by mullerbiker on Slack & deleted the post here.
@matigo That article was wrong, it turns out. See: https://www.imore.com/no-apples-not-locking-you-out-linux-macs-t2-chip

@gtwilson I worked for a Federal election in a combined-seat polling booth a few years ago. The nearest main road to the west was the boundary between the two electorates. We had a fellow at the door directing voters to the right for one electorate & the left for the other. There were some folk too thick to even know whether they lived to the east or west of the boundary.
@matigo Geekbench for the 3 is 326 single-core/559 multi-core vs the 4’s 803 single/1250 multi.
The 4 had a 1.4 GHz A6X vs the 3’s 1 GHx A5X. The 4 was the first big iPad with the Lightning connector.
My iPad 3 was always a slow pig of a thing.
@matigo Give it a restore from a backup. The transformed my iPod Touch from a poorly responding sluggard into a nice smooth bit of gear.
@matigo I bought a basic 16 GB iPad Mini (512 MB RAM) a few months after buying a 32 GB iPad 3 - aka “The New iPad” - which had 1 GB of RAM.
I ran the Geekbench app and the non-retina Mini had a better score.
All that extra RAM was used up by the 3’s retina display. Both had 1 GHz processors, an A5 in the Mini & an A5X in the 3.

Booting into Linux is impossible on Apple hardware that uses the T2 chip.
