[QUOTE="philappleton, post: 1774983, member: 392340"] Hi Guys, Sorry for the delay in getting this update done. As I was trying to trim screen recordings to show the problems I was getting fresh problems. Now please bear in mind that I had all sorts of strange things going on with my MacAir even after fresh MacOS installs twice etc and Apple trying to give me a reason was that some of the Apps I had downloaded from their App Store could conflict and cause strange things to happen. Because of this I thought that when I got this MacBook Pro I would not set it up from any Backups and set it up as new. Also I wouldn't install any apps or my music etc and just run it in effect with just the MacOS running to see if anything happened therefore Apple couldn't blame anything else. So the only thing I did install was the Screen Recorder Pro which I need to record the screen along with the Quicktime built in recorder and the only other App I loaded was Elmedia Player Go, both from Apple's App Store. Well already and within 2 days of starting to use the new Mac I've had a lot of weird stuff going on and if you follow the below with links to the recordings on Youtube you can see for yourself [url]https://youtu.be/wze14VsKmg0[/url] Not able to change movie default player [url]https://youtu.be/NdkB9h8bPnA[/url] Another clip of not being Abe to change default player [url]https://youtu.be/zbnSHVSp-t0[/url] Strange error message regarding Finder [url]https://youtu.be/qQQaBdwos6I[/url] Not able to change default player and then screen recorder crashes for no reason [url]https://youtu.be/8F7nv2Jj3hs[/url] Mac running unusually slow and so done a test to compare it to iPhone on same network [url]https://youtu.be/M9eHoj_0SfU[/url] When trying to change the default media player it instantly jumps back to the previous player [url]https://youtu.be/Qm-NtHYQwJg[/url] Mac internet running explainably slow and speed tests show iPhone running much quicker on same network [url]https://youtu.be/O9qOqULeCQg[/url] Not being allowed to rename a screen recording [url]https://youtu.be/fxctcPics2k[/url] Being prevented from backing up my screen recordings by saying file to big [url]https://youtu.be/mcgEjjn5hB0[/url] Problem with trying to play a screen recording back up from google drive [url]https://youtu.be/oOWs6mAH_-k[/url] Not able to trim clips in Quicktime [url]https://youtu.be/jqnngOEd69A[/url] Being stopped from changing google account on Safari [url]https://youtu.be/gaTMJ8G22SE[/url] Not able to play from Google drive even though 50mb internet available [url]https://youtu.be/KyxAh_wTYHg[/url] Backup of screen recording to google drive no longer play [url]https://youtu.be/_qpbnl7K5pQ[/url] Problem with Quicktime Screen Recorder not letting me select drop down menu for microphone [url]https://youtu.be/5J2DqWD8XAQ[/url] Media Player crashed for no reason [url]https://youtu.be/Ufg0VYNiaV8[/url] Screen Recorder Recording being corrupted to stop be getting proof of what is happening [url]https://youtu.be/T1JAQjOIXKI[/url] Two strange error message I wasn't expecting [url]https://youtu.be/oQRfhRbucSA[/url] Not able to make a window bigger because no double cursor available Okay whilst none of these issues have caused me any financial loss and some are just small issues however lots of small issues add up and as I mention in the video screen recordings it just all seems very targeted that some one is getting inside my Mac for what reason I don't know however that can see I have some recordings and now they are also trying to corrupt them and prevent me from backing them up yo either my Google Drive or Portable HDD. How can all of this be pure coincidental? I thank everyone who takes some time to have a look at these problems / screen recordings and if anyone has any ideas then I would love some help. I have also sent these to Apple however after sending all the screen recording of the strange stuff on my MacAir along with system logs etc they never ever done anything about it except for Kindly give me a credit for the value of it against this MacBook Pro. I'm hoping now that they can see strange stuff happening on a brand new machine then they must finally admit it must be a hacker getting in through a back door and finally they do the responsible thing and look in to this. I'm happy to do what I can to help and they can even have my Mac to send back to the experts who write the MacOS. No disrespect to half the Senior Advisors who you get through to but none of them are programmers and the only way to get this resolved is to obviously close whatever back door someone is using. Thanks and looking forward to any comments and help Best Regards Phil [/QUOTE]
