I am writing this post about an issue I've been having with my 2019 Macbook Pro running Catalina 10.15.5. Often, when I open my laptop, the built-in keyboard and trackpad are unresponsive. If I don't close the laptop, a window will pop up after 15-30 seconds that says 'Bluetooth keyboard setup.

Best New Features in macOS Catalina for a Mobile Student

As an international university student, I rely on a 13-inch MacBook Pro to get work done wherever I go, whether that be a library, café or in a different country. As such, the highlight of Apple's World-Wide Developer Conference (WWDC) 2019 for me was the new macOS Catalina.

These are the new features in macOS Catalina are most pertinent for a mobile student.

First things first, the flagship feature this year was stronger cohesion between macOS and (the new) iPadOS.

Previously, I wrote about how project Marzipan could bring more iPad apps to macOS and vice versa.

Apple revealed Project Catalyst, which streamlines the process of porting iPadOS apps to macOS. In Catalina, iOS apps like Music, Apple TV, Podcasts, Asphalt, and Jira are coming to macOS.

The impact of Project Catalyst, ironically, will not be felt from an addition of an app, but a removal. Rejoice, For iTunes is officially dead! The bloated software almost as old as myself may finally get its obituary. It won't be missed.

From now on, synchronizing iOS devices will be done in Finder instead. It is a solution so simple and intuitive that I can't believe I presumed Apple would create a “My iPhone” app on macOS.

Thanks to the new Music app, listening to Apple Music (with the obligatory $5/mo student plan) won't be as cumbersome as it used to be.

Music is more lightweight than iTunes and is also built specifically for Apple Music. Still, it is nice that Music still supports integration with local iTunes library, the biggest selling point of Apple Music over Spotify for me.

A revamped lyrics UI is welcome as well. My morning rap jam sessions won't involve clicking a drop-down menu that doesn't stick on top of the screen anymore.

Sidecar allows users to use an iPad as an external monitor to a Mac device, further bringing together macOS and iPadOS.

Sidecar is probably most useful for creative professionals that can draw on the newer iPads' incredible screen and Apple Pencil 2 with an equally powerful desktop graphics software. Although I dabbled in art before, that target audience is not me.

That being said, Sidecar is relevant to anyone annoyed by the sheer lack of screen real estate on a smaller MacBook, like the 2017 13-inch MacBook Pro.

I would often have to open two tiny windows side-by-side, with e-textbook or lecture slides on the left and my notes on the right.

While I could purchase a portable external monitor, a monitor is used for much narrower circumstances than an iPad.

Sidecar is a feature that I definitely will use next year to get through university, most likely with an iPad Air 2 and an Adonit stylus.

I look forward to using my iPad for taking handwritten notes, and my MacBook Pro for programming, all the while taking advantage of extra screen real-estate.

There are two “hidden” additions to cloud storage that was relegated to the “we won't talk about this on stage” part of WWDC.

You can now share iCloud Drive folders with a private link, a feature that was long overdue. As I rely on iCloud Drive to synchronize my files, this is a welcome change that will streamline collaboration.

For third-party cloud services, a new API makes it possible for developers to integrate their cloud directly into Finder.

The first thing that anyone that wants to adopt digital minimalism should do is to go to Settings > Screen Time on their iOS devices. (Or any equivalent on Android.)

Since Screen Time doesn't lie, the sheer number of hours that you spend on your iPhone is an effective wake-up call to aggressive cut down on phone usage for good.

Astrill Catalina

I remember realizing that I spent a staggering 3 hours per day on WeChat. Admittedly, much of that time was logged while I had WeChat open while working on my MacBook. However, merely having it open so much must have compromised my ability to focus.

As Screen Time on iOS helped me gain some much-needed perspective about my iPhone usage, I expect to utilize Screen Time on macOS as well.

In macOS Catalina, Mail.app will automatically detect and display links to unsubscribe from a mailing list.

I morbidly dread the process of searching for an “unsubscribe” link written in a minuscule font with camouflaged color hidden somewhere in the footer of a mailing list that I mistakenly signed up for by failing to uncheck a specific box in a form with numerous boxes when I made an account for a website that I no longer use.

While a small feature, it is consistent with Apple's efforts to combat digital distractions with Screen Time.

With macOS Catalina, Apple is officially killing all compatibility support for 32-bit applications on macOS. This change gives me mixed feelings. While the banhammer was bound to come eventually, I still use one 32-bit application, namely Astrill VPN. I'll have to wait and see when Astrill developers update their macOS client.

Important

  • If you have installed Shure Designer, you need to update to Designer v4.3 or higher before installing Microflex Wireless Software.
  • Simultaneous runtime operation of Microflex Wireless Software with Shure Wireless Workbench is not supported, but both may be installed on the same computer.
  • If the desired NIC is not selectable during the software installation, or does not show up in runtime in the Settings of Microflex Wireless Software, ensure the interface is enabled and is active (i.e. Ethernet cable plugged in & has activity LED’s)
  • Update any MXW devices which are below the minimum supported firmware 8.0.3 by using the Shure Update Utility (SUU) found here. Close the SUU when complete.

Notable workflow differences from MXW legacy Flash User Interface

  • Prior to setup, a passphrase is required to initialize the device(s) (MXWAPT, MXWANI). The passphrase will be applied to all discovered devices which need initialization. This passphrase must be entered to access the devices. As in the Flash UI, all MXWAPTs in a configuration share a passphrase but each MXWANI’s passphrase is independent.
    • MXWNCS networked chargers do not require authentication, so users will be able to change device properties without logging in.
  • If you are accessing MXW devices across subnets with Shure Software Update Utility on the same machine while Microflex Wireless Software is running, cross-subnet MXW devices may be discovered, but control and monitoring is not supported. This differs from the legacy Flash UI where it was possible to access any routable MXW IP address on the network by manually entering its IP address in a browser. Shure SystemOn Audio Asset Management Software is recommended for cross-subnet monitoring and control. Click here for information.
    • *See chart below for a comparison of Microflex Wireless software and SystemOn software controls.
  • Double-click the MXWNCS from the Devices view to set the charger’s IP addresses as well as other device properties. The legacy workflow of setting charger device properties from the MXWAPT’s Utility tab remains supported.
  • Language selection is done in the Settings tab of Microflex Wireless Software.
  • Shure Device Discovery software is no longer needed for typical setups. Microflex Wireless Software displays the discovered devices in the Devices view.
  • The “Lock Configuration” feature available in the MXW legacy Flash user interface has been removed in Microflex Wireless Software.
  • In the Devices view, “Configuration Status” is introduced. New/uninitialized MXWAPTs are designated “OPEN”. After setup, each MXWAPT configuration will have 1 “Primary” MXWAPT, and up to 9 “Secondary” MXWAPTs. Sorting by Primary is a convenience for larger MXW deployments. Note also that the Primary APT is the device which is initially viewed when opening any of the Secondary MXWAPTs in the same configuration.

Known Issues

  • In some network scenarios with larger configurations some actions will take slightly longer. For example, networks of 100-200 devices may take 30-60 seconds for all devices to be discovered.
  • Microflex Wireless Software and Shure SystemOn should not be installed on the same computer. SystemOn users can continue using a web browser to access a SystemOn installation.
  • When monitoring an MXWAPT channel which utilizes both a Primary and a Secondary mic on the same channel, there is no auto-switch functionality to display the on-air microphone.Workaround: manually select the Primary or Secondary mic to display.
  • Microflex Wireless Software must be restarted after Shure Designer 4.3 is uninstalled.
  • Issues with the Dante interface may cause discovery issues with Microflex Wireless Software
  • In the JDECT band (Japan only), there is an “RF carrier number mismatch” message missing as a potential reason for link failure. Displayed message is “Link Failure”.
