Learn, share, and get recognized
How do i see the answers from other people's questions? I search and maybe find someone with a similar issue or question, but I cannot figure out HOW TO SEE THE ANSWERS. Why does it have to be so difficult??!!!
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.1
You are welcome. I should add that the forum tool for searching has been a challenge since this version of the forum software went live in Dec 2018.
Still, even in the face of teething pains with the search functions, you can "filter" to see questions marked "Solved." Click the word "Filter" in the search results screen:
and you will get some options, inclined only show Solved questions:
It is not perfect but may help.

So, if you click on any of the questions on this page:
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/big-sur
you do not get the answers?
If I click on the first question here (can't find my information....)
I wind up with a new page which contains the question with all the answers following:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/252269927
The answers should be visible right below the questions.
Can you provide the url of an example?
These are user to user help forums, and sometimes there will be no answer because none of us volunteers has a solution. Apple does not answer questions here.
Feel free to ask your own questions independently of what others may have already asked.
"should be" IS the problem. I don't see any answers to any of the questions. That makes no sense. The only reason why I see this one is b/c it came in an email. Seriously, what button do I need to hit to find the answers. I hit all the symbols, but they do nothing!!!! I don't understand why it has to be so frustrating... something so simple.
Some posts have no answers. There are millions of end users here but only a tiny fraction of those answer as well as ask questions. So many questions—so few volunteers.
This is not unique to Apple's forums; I've seen the same thing in most.
It's really annoying the layout of this forum page!! Yesterday I posed a question and now it doesn't show under "my subscription". How can I follow up on a question I made?? Does anyone know ??

Again: Can you provide the url of an example?
TY both. I get it now, but still a bit confusing. I'm technologically-challenged.

click on either of your questions and any answers should show.
Freddy,
In your screen shot, the "Authored" or "Participated" filters are not checked. That will keep you from seeing what you have written.
