CompuScoop Staff January 7, 2021 0

The Mac mini is Apple’s most versatile computer, and now with M1, it packs a staggering amount of performance and incredible new features in such a compact design. M1 brings an 8-core CPU with up to 3x faster performance than the previous generation, dramatically accelerating demanding workloads, from compiling a million lines of code to building enormous multitrack music projects. An 8-core GPU delivers up to a massive 6x increase in graphics performance, allowing Mac mini to tackle performance-intensive tasks like complex 3D rendering with ease.

Dan Uff January 6, 2021 0

You get an email from a doctor about a document that you'll need for an upcoming meeting with an insurance company. You then need to take that document and send it to another person via Messenger. Sound hard to do? Not really.

Here's how:

Read the email from the doctor. He may have you click on a private link to see the document in question.
Once there, open the document on your iOS device.
While open, tap the Share icon (a square with an arrow pointing up).
In the Share menu, type the Messenger icon.
The PDF file will attach itself to an outgoing message.
Type in where the message is going in the TO: Field (upper portion of the screen).
If you wish to send a message with the attachment, you can do so now.
When finished, click the SEND button.
That's it.
