IOS 12, Beta, Golden Master, etc.

I have a beta profile for iOS 12 and had downloaded it. When chekcking for any update, I see that I have 12.0 (no beta mentioned). Is this what is called the Golden Master? Is the GM as good as the actual release of iOS 12?

Apple Watch Remote?

I'm really ticked with Apple right now. I want to use my watch as a remote for iTunes. Can't find the Remote app on my watch and not on the App Store when going through my Watch App on my iPhone. Has it been discontinued?

Contacts-iCloud-not on Mac

Added a bunch of Contacts on my iPhone today. Checked Contacts on my Mac when getting home and about a quarter of them actually made it over. All are on iCloud. All the added Contacts are showing up on my iPad but not on my Mac. I went to iCloud.com and I don't see them in Contacts either. How could they show on my iPad then?I could understand if they weren't showing on my iPad (slow to sync over), but what would give on this?

MacBook Pro keyboard... sigh....

Darnit. :mad:

Mid-2014 MBP. The "w" key has stopped working completely. Having to copy-and-paste lower- and upper-case. Fortunately I have a clipboard manager that lets me assign them to a keystroke, but what a pain in the butt.

Moreso since a fix is rather... expensive and daunting.

Sigh. Hope the research grant comes through - daddy needs a new MacBook! Of course, that means a whole new expense in terms of dongles, docks, etc. with the new USB-C connectors.... argh....

:-(

LF - Internet Uptime Monitor Software

I'm looking for an internet uptime monitor that will track my internet connectivity (via cable) for a longer period of time and record the times and durations when the internet drops.

I'm using a pretty new D-Link DIR-822 router and intially thought it was the culprit of the dropped connections, but now I'm thinking it's actually the cable internet connection itself.
The wireless part I can monitor nicely with the OS X built in wireless diagnostic but I haven't found a similar function on the Mac to monitor the internet connection itself.

The router will show me how long the internet connection has been up, but there doesn't seem to be an option to report that over the period of a few days or a week.
