That would be after 10.13. I don't see the value in the new icon, whereas?the old one told you at a glance which keyboard you have selected (right way up or not ;) ).?

Howdy. Rick, folks will try to help but it helps them to provide some information. Which model iMac? How much free drive space? How much RAM? What did your Wyfe do to prepare, do maintenance, on her iMac for Catalina? -Delete old cache files? -Boot in Safe Disk Mode? -Boot in Recovery and run First Aid on boot drive?? What is the difficulty in downloading? Can you be specific? Download quits before finishing? Slow??

Apparently the App Store has updated Microsoft applications for
Catalina but so far my

Would someone guide me through a seamless process to install?
Any advice would truly be appreciated.

Howdy.
Brent, I did attach the Input menu icon from Catalina. It didn't make
it through. Not sure why it didn't.
In your smaller screen capture, the US flag is the Input menu from an
older OS X. The flag is for the selected or language keyboard. For
example, if you were running a French OS X it would be a French
Tricolor. You can have multiple language keyboards and just pick them
to switch between them.
In your larger Input menu icon screen cap, I think that is the icon
from the OS X Mojave or High Sierra. It has the little star in it.
The OS X Catalina input menu icon is the same as Mojave but without the
little star.
I'll try the attachment again.

Re: it’s like a horror movie: my system files have eaten up my boot drive!
Howdy. Tom, at this point of the struggle, why don't you reformat your drive and do a clean system install and then do a fresh install of your programs. At some point, it becomes worth it, in my view, to show the computer who is boss and reformat!!

Now I think it's not ignoring me, it's answering my query with
"none." Here's the very discouraging result from last night:
1. Armed with 5 GB of new storage from deleting caches, I was able to
run Onyx.
2. I deleted logs and checked for snapshots (which OnyX will do).
Guess what? No snapshots! Huh?
3. I quit OnyX and checked storage available in About this Mac,
thinking it would have increased somewhat from 5 GB. What a shock: I
now had MBs instead of GBs. What happened to it while I was running
OnyX? I have no idea.
4. Now I'm back to not being able to run apps. Why are there no
snapshots? Might it have to do with the fact that I turned off Time
Machine yesterday and ejected, disconnected and turned off the TM
backup drive?
Anyway, I don't know where to go now. I removed over 60 GBs from the
drive, cleaned out caches and logs, found no snapshots, and have too
little memory (again) to run apps. My computer is crawling. I'll
continue to go through the suggestions I've received, doing whatever
I can with nearly zero storage memory and watching a spinning
beachball by the hour, but the takeaway is that 2/3rds of my 250 GB
HD is System files and my computer is circling the drain. What a
mess!

Howdy. Jim and everybody, Emoji & Symbols on the Input menu shows font variations and font names. But you will need to expand the window. Click the Input menu icon at top right inside the Emoji & Symbols window (to right of the Search box). In the column at far right you will see several sub boxes. The character name at top (with Add to Favorites), then the Related Characters box, below that (may have to scroll down) the Font Variation box. Folks should be aware of the Settings menu - the gear icon at top left. You can turn on a slew of additional characters with the Customize List command. Character sets like: Arrows ? ? ? ?? ? Box Drawing Braille Patterns Bullets/Stars ● ? ? ?? ? ?? Currency Symbols $ � ? ? ? Digits Dingbats Divination Symbols Duployan (whatever that is???) Emoji Enclosed Characters Geometrical Shapes Letterlike Symbols Math Symbols × - ∞ ≧ Musical Symbols ? ? ? Technical Symbols ? ?? ?? ? And many more. The Latin set is very useful because it includes descriptor of all of those symbols like ? (Latin Capital Letter A with Acute).

I purchased a new Mac Mini about six weeks ago and was told it came with 1 year of Apple TV+ when it was released. After reading the posts on this I tried to sign up but Apple will only give me 7 days free trial. I am not too bothered as I don’t watch too much TV but I do think that Apple’s advertising is a tad misleading. The only ‘free’ streaming is a half dozen Apple produced programmes and a couple of Apple produced films. All else carries a price tag, even the BBC iPlayer programmes that I can get for free.

I have always had that box checked and when I delete a message, its attachment is moved to the Trash. Actually, I knew about that. And I absolutely don't want it, though I know it works for some other people. I'm grateful I have the option not to choose it. Apparently not all Mac and Windows email programs allow keeping an attachment when deleting a message. I keep a lot of attachments. I move some of them to another folder, and trash some immediately. The rest I like to find safe in the Attachments folder till I finally get around to dealing with them. I'd hate to dig through my trash before emptying it to make sure there's nothing valuable there. Thanks, though, for the reminder. Patsy
