Question for anyone in Canada who has an Apple Business account with Business Loyalty pricing.

Our company spends roughly $50–60k/year with Apple, so we’re in the $35k–$200k Business Loyalty tier and receive discounted pricing on various hardware, AppleCare and accessories.

Does anyone know whether there is a way to purchase through the regular Apple.ca retail website, but associate the order with our Apple Business Customer Number/account so that:

1. Our normal Business Loyalty discount is applied to the order; and
2. The purchase counts toward our rolling 12-month Business Loyalty spend?

In other words, I’m trying to determine whether the Business Store is actually required to receive our negotiated pricing, or whether a regular Apple.ca order can be associated with our existing business account during checkout or afterward and receive the same treatment.

I know purchases can be associated with an organization for Apple Business Manager/device enrolment. That’s not what I’m asking about. I’m specifically asking about Business Loyalty pricing and the rolling annual spend.

Would particularly appreciate hearing from Canadian Apple Business customers or anyone who has actually done this.

It's quite hard to explain so I've filmed a very short video. I have tried everything within display settings on both devices, with no luck.

Chatgpt told me to try the "double push method" which apparently "realigns" the devices, but I haven't had a great deal of luck with that either.

My Mac and MacBook are 2021 and 2020 M1s, both running on Tahoe.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello all,

I'm the developer of Caxton. Part of my job is consumer data processing, so multi gigabyte logs, giant CSV exports, SQL dumps, and JSONL are a normal week for me, and for years my fix was keeping a Windows machine around because the standard tool for this (EmEditor) never shipped a Mac version.

The thing I actually wanted was for a huge file to not automatically mean some crippled read-only large file mode. You should still be able to search it, regex it, filter it, Replace All across it, tail it, diff it against another copy, and edit it like any normal file.

It memory maps the file instead of loading it into RAM, so the file stays on disk and only what's on screen gets materialized. Numbers from the benchmark harness, M1 Max with 64 GB:

• 10 GB log (80,610,954 lines): usable immediately, full line index finishes in the background in 19.5s
• literal search across the whole 10 GB, 1,613,344 matches: 1.3s
• Replace All across all 1.61M matches: 1.7s, and it lands as one undo step
• filter 80.6M lines down to the matching 1.61M: 1.3s
• 1 GB CSV, 2,022,947 rows by 50 columns: working grid in 2.6s, numeric sort across all rows in 8.2s
• memory stays under 200 MB with the 10 GB document open

Those are my numbers on my machine, the harness and methodology are published on the site, so check them against yours.

The CSV side is a real editable grid, not a preview. Typed sorts, value filters, dedupe, fill series, split and combine columns, fixed width conversion, and it saves back to the same plain file. On the text side there's regex search, multi condition filtering, follow tail, Batch Replace with pair lists, Find and Replace across folders with previews and backups, bookmarks, folding, multi cursor, side by side compare with copy changes across, 13 encodings, workspaces.

Native AppKit and Swift, no Electron, Apple Silicon and Intel. Everything happens locally, files are never uploaded anywhere, no telemetry.

It's commercial: 7 day trial, no card, then $9.99/mo, $99.99/yr, or $179.99 lifetime. If the trial or a sub expires it drops to read only rather than locking you out, opening, searching, filtering and copying still work, editing and saving is what requires the license.

Mostly I'm here for feedback from people who regularly get handed huge logs and exports from other machines.
