  1. Sorry it took me so long to reply. I'm not on here a lot these days. I don't think apple gains anything out of addressing each individual piece of malicious software. It wouldn't accomplish anything. But when there is a large misconception about a product, that works to the detriment of your own company and your reputation. Perhaps it's worth releasing a statement or a guide that outlines things people can do to keep them safe online. Or the features and reasons to keep unknown sources disabled. Or the real risks of enabling it. I'm not sure how you would go about doing it, but I'm sure there is someone smart enough at Apple who is much more capable then me, who could do this. There are ways of doing this without scaring people away from their platform, whilst also correcting the misinformation.
  2. Not trying to continue the flame war. I think a bit of context may help. As somebody who works in retail, and sells Mac's. The general consumer does seem to think that Mac's are invunerable to malware. I would say at least half, on certain days considerably more. Even mentioning antivirus to these people gets a very distinct "Mac's don't get virus's" response. Also, being mad at people for spreading this. When correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't apple the one making ad's where the windows computer (man in a suit) was sick. And the Mac (trendy dude) was all like I don't get virus'. I mean they kind of did start it. Don't get me wrong OSX/OS11 seems to be much more secure since they've moved to gpl3.0 compliance and agreement. But apples inability to publicly acknowledge problems will mean that this will likely remain a problem unless they themselves address it. Realistically, the best solution would be people needing a common sense best practises online license to even be able to use the internet. That would likely solve a good 80% of malware cases on all platforms.
  3. Now that Google play music is being shut down. The cost of YouTube Premium needs to drop or I'll be out. I would assume many others too. YouTube music sounds significantly worse that GPM even with everything set to play at "High" quality. The search function is confused and because it doesn't know if you want the YouTube video on just the audio it shows you both results. Mixed together. At least now when you're casting there is a video toggle. On that note, when casting, the cover art for YouTube music stays in the middle of the screen. Rather than the gentle position transition it made around the screen with GPM. (Super useful for those of us with OLEDs) The navigation is a mess, there is no extra way of filtering content. Not a problem with things like artist and album, but very problematic with things like downloads, subscriptions & playlists. The home and explore pages are not only under the opposite headings, they're overly cluttered and makes finding anything difficult. It could really use a video/audio toggle up the top that changes what the app is displaying FULL STOP. I honestly think they'd be better off scrapping the app completely and starting again. Or just put GPM back in full support, at least it got most of the basic stuff right. Also can somebody tell me if the YouTube Premium features for YouTube music listed in Google's FAQ here: https://support.google.com/youtubemusic/answer/9266556?hl=en are actually real? If you don't have YouTube Premium do you not get background playback in YouTube music? Can you not use music only mode without the subscription. If this is real. Why the actual F&$% is anybody actually using YouTube Music??? Google has really shot themselves in the foot with this one.
  4. YouTube Music is a Mess. It's really sad, The home page should be the explore page. The current explore page needs to just Die. The library being mixed with your YouTube stuff. They've removed the mood and genre lists from GPM already. Not to mention that email about a 1 click Transfer. Not even being close to 1 click. They really just need to kill YouTube music and go back to GPM. If you're going to have a "YouTube Music" App, you need to build it from scratch, and this time - remember that it's an app for listening to music first.
  5. Does it sound like coil whine? Can you locate where in the case the sound is coming from?
  6. Alright, well the Corsair PSU is dead. Take that out of the equation all together. Test the system with one drive connected at a time and see if any individual drive is causing issues.
  7. Is the sound coming from your speakers?
  8. System idle is your available CPU resource. 10-20% usage while idle is very high it should sit between 0-2% when nothing's happening
  9. It could be. It's just way more likely to be software.
  10. Issue still remains after windows re-install? Did you install he latest drivers from AMD's website? Or did you let windows install it?
  11. Do you happen to have a multimeter?
  12. I'm stumped. I'd reinstall windows and be done with it.
  13. Make sure there is no debris under the motherboard. Like MojangYang said it sound like it's grounded. Contact the the chassis will do this.
