Looking for some help from a person who is something more of a "computer whiz" than I am. I'm an old school boy....slide rule and all.
I am typing this question on an IMAC desktop using the MAC OS High Sierra, version 10.13.6 that has served me faithfully for many years........ Everything associated with my communications (on it) with you and others is what I would call normal. In particular the visual effects are as you would expect to see in person with your normal vision, or what you would see in the many pictures we see on this site on farm operations. I'm finding that some sites, that may have something I need to purchase, have upgraded their software to the point where I can no longer do business with them with my "old" (existing) software.
So, I get another IMAC, referbished, prior owner, from a reputable supplier, very reasonable price, which comes with the "New Ventura" software version OS 13.7.6. This software is weird. Everything is helter-skelter, very unorganized. The images of anything are made up of maybe 4 colors and the contrast is like 0 and 10....no shading, no normal views of anything. A lot of what are regular pictures on the old software, appear with so much contrast that you can't make out half of the picture due to part of it, a good part of it is black and pictures are more of outlines rather than what a normal camera would take.
Is this where Apple has gone......have the cooks taken over the company? I really need some help. Last time I tried to order vitamins from Swanson Vitamins, using my old software that had allowed me to make many purchases over the years, just crashed when you got to the pay the bill part. I noticed Walmart had the same obstruction.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. This www is a big part of my life, living alone at 83 on my farm.
