I have an external disk which I used to boot from, but I can't remember which version of macOS is installed. Where do I look in the directories to determine which version is installed? I am not booted into it, and I don't want to boot in yet, so can't just look in About this Mac. The System folder itself is dated 22 March 2022 so it's quite recent.

In a small project under Xcode source control, there is an unknown file (BlePeripheral.swift) which I can't find or delete. I did add it at one stage, but I thought I had deleted all references to it. I have done Clean Build Folder, closed the project, and closed Xcode in the hope of resolving. This is the source control panel showing the unwanted file in green. Right clicking on it does not have an option to Delete. This is the main Navigation panel which doesn't show it (so no option to delete it). It was in the Model folder. This is the search panel hoping to find it referenced somewhere and this is the Finder view of the project folder. Its not in the Assets.xcassets or Preview Content folders.

This error is generated at the first case statement in my example code. Type 'Binding' has no member 'atype1' If I change the order of the cases in the switch statement, it is always the first one which gives the error. In my code, if you delete the value of that first switch line, and type it in again, as soon as you have entered 'case .' the drop down menu will offer suggestions and you can see the atype1 & atype2 near the top of the list. What am I doing wrong? import SwiftUI enum AType: CaseIterable { case atype1 case atype2 case unknown // default } struct Peripheral: Identifiable { let id: Int let name: String var type: AType = .unknown } struct ContentView: View { @State private var peri = Peripheral(id: 1, name: "A") var body: some View { switch $peri.type { case .atype1: Text("Hello, $peri.name!") case .atype2: Text("Goodbye, $peri.name!") case .unknown: Text("Oh no!") } .padding() } } #Preview() { ContentView() }

TL;DR my singleton BLEManager managing Bluetooth communication keeps getting re-initialised (see console log). How should I prevent this? Using Swift 5.9 for iOS in Xcode 15.1 My code finds multiple BT devices, and lists them for selection, also building an array of devices for reference. Most code examples connect each device immediately. I am trying to connect later, when a specific device is selected and its View opens. I pass the array index of the device to the individual Model to serve as a reference, hoping to pass that back to BLEManager to connect and do further communication. After scanning has completed, the log message shows there is 1 device in it, so its not empty. As soon as I try and pass a reference back to BLEManager, the app crashes saying the array reference is out of bounds. The log shows that BLEManager is being re-initialised, presumably clearing and emptying the array. How should I be declaring the relationship to achieve this?
