Welcome to the newly launched
Frequently Asked Mac Questions forum, a collection of posts on a variety of often-encountered Mac issues written by FineTunedMac's own members.
Many thanks to all who put time and effort into FAMQ's opening posts and continue to work on posts waiting in the wings. This knowledge base may never be truly comprehensive or systematically organized, but inasmuch as the entries developed are likely to address those issues which we've encountered most often during our troubleshooting careers, it figures to reflect a real-world relevance which might be hard to find elsewhere.
It's our hope that as this forum becomes populated with posts, the FTM community will find value in creating a wide range of additional entries, not only to share their knowledge and experience with other Mac users or because of the convenience of having ready-made posts to link to when answering the most common troubleshooting requests, but because the
process of creating the entries is itself an education for everyone who's involved.
That creation process occurs in the
Mac FAQ Discussion forum, where potential Frequently Asked Mac Questions entries are proposed, discussed, and edited until a final draft is ready for publication here. In addition, once a topic is published here, the Mac FAQ Discussion thread in which it was created remains available for suggestions of further improvements or updates.
Anyone is eligible to participate in threads in the Mac FAQ Discussion forum
after requesting that his or her name be added to the list of contributors. You do this by making a request in the
Posting privileges for Mac FAQ Discussion thread.
