iPhone 14PM swipe home gesture not working
by Guest nyc410- 0 replies
- 5 views
I set up my iPhone as blank to do the 16.0.1 update before restoring my saved data from my 15 MBP. Once it did the restore from backup, everything is here, but I can’t swipe up from the bottom to go back to the Home Screen. No case or anything. That gesture works in landscape mode, but not in the typical portrait mode. Luckily I had an old accessibility short cut to tap side button 3 times to enable the virtual home button. I’ve tried everything short of restoring the iPhone and starting... Read more Continue reading...

Wife deleted contact, entire 10 year Message history gone poof
by Guest canhaz- 0 replies
- 4 views
My wife had two contacts for me. At coffee this morning, we set up Emergency Bypass on the one contact (with my full name, ie "John Smith") to improve contactabiity between us. She then decided to delete the redundant contact which was just my nickname (ie "Smithy") cos having two similar contacts with the same number was confusing the custom ringtones, and bypass feature. After we got home she plugged in the phone and her iPhone backed up to iCloud. Now she can't find 10 years of our text... Read more Continue reading...

Mac Pro 5,1 not responding to any boot commands
by Guest tomh381- 0 replies
- 6 views
Hi all, I have a 2012 Mac Pro which I bought without any hard drive in it. I thought this would be no issue, just boot from a USB installer and install onto a new drive. However, no boot commands seem to work at all. Option doesn't bring up boot options, CMD, Option, P & R does nothing. I have tried with multiple keyboards, including an Apple one, all USB connected. Tried different USB ports. Any advice would be much appreciated, as I have been looking online for ages and nothing has worked... Read more Source: MacRumors

Set Custom Dock Settings for Mac When Connected to External Displays with HiDock
by Guest Paul Horowitz- 0 replies
- 87 views
Have you ever wished that MacOS could have different settings for the Dock, when connected to an external display, versus using only the built-in display? Or that MacOS would know when your MacBook Pro is connected to an external display and automatically adjust the Dock positioning, or size? That’s exactly what HiDock does, a free ...

Is thermal paste servicing recommended?
by Guest cinclodes- 0 replies
- 6 views
How often should one give a Mac Pro a "lube job" by replacing the thermal paste at the heat sinks? I recently tore down an old Mac Pro that had died (bought it for parts) and found that the paste was dried up and had a burnt appearance. It seems simple enough to replace the paste, but is there any risk of damage in handling the processors while doing this kind of maintenance? I have several machines that are over 10 years old that have probably never had this done. I found a post about a... Read more Source: MacRumors

Trouble switching from Android to iOS
by Guest MrD1sturbed- 0 replies

I recently purchased a new iPhone 15 Pro Max and was attempting to switch from my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. Using the Move to iOS app, I was able to transfer most of my data, however not all of my SMS messages came over in the transfer. I tried power cycling the iPhone and even tried resetting it and transferring again three times total, and it still is not transferring all of my messages. I got so frustrated that I returned the iPhone but I really do want to switch so I'm hoping someone... Read more Continue reading...

Adds people's phone numbers/contacts Automatically groups them into a group chat The group chat automatically adds them once you incorporate their contact info into the group I've just been manually doing this myself on Messenger and it's tedious.

Anyone know of a way to extract logged data from an app that doesn’t natively support extracting said data?

I don’t know if this is the best place to ask this question. I have this app I use with a device on my grill. It regulates the temperature and monitors the temperature of the meat I’m cooking. I have some ideas about cool ways to use the meat temp data to calculate cooking rate and estimate time to completion, but I don’t know how to get the data from the app. If anyone has a suggestion that would be awesome. submitted by /u/Okanus [link] [comments]

Has anybody managed to get Linux running on a Late 2009 iMac? My specs for mine are below: 2.66Ghz quad-core Intel Core i5 macOS High Sierra iMac (27 inch, Late 2009) Graphics ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB I had already upgraded the RAM to 16GB (4 x 4GB Crucial memory). OWC Replaced with 32GB 1067MHz (4 x 8GB) OWC 1TB SSD (Main Drive) OWC 500GB SSD (Replaced CD SuperDrive, using Data Doubler). Have used Hard Drive sensor cable purchased from OWC. I tried to install Linux Mint 22, but on reboot I just get a black screen. I think it is to do with the Radeon Graphics not being supported - should use nomodeset in grub.cfg, but I cannot seem to g…

Sequoia no secondary HDMI output after upgrade
by Guest Bakafish- 0 replies

I did the Sequoia release upgrade and my second monitor (using HDMI, primary is DP over USB3) wasn't recognized anymore (has been working for the last 5 years.) I tried unplugging and reinserting the HDMI on the display, restarting the Mac Pro and forcing display scan (option key in the display settings pane) but it wasn't recognized. I finally crawled under my desk and changed the HDMI port on the video card (base display, AMD Radeon Pro 580X 8 GB) and that resolved the issue (at least for... Read more Source: MacRumors

FindMy is totally useless when I need it the most.
by Guest /u/cleitinhodacorreria- 0 replies
- 9 views
I live in a pretty dangerous Latin city, and there have been three situations where I needed to use the FindMy network, but it was no help at all. One of my friends, who has an iPhone 11 running iOS 17, got his phone stolen at a soccer stadium. We believe the thieves turned his phone off, and we couldn't locate it the next day. The last update we had was from when his phone was still at the stadium. Another friend with an iPhone XR running iOS 17 didn’t have mobile data, and since there was no internet signal, the internal FindMy network never showed her location. It always depends on an internet connection. I decided to test it myself with my iPhone 13 on iOS 18…

Did Apple FINALLY fix iPhone to Apple Watch music syncing in iOS 18?
by Guest /u/Bigheaded_1- 0 replies
- 12 views
With how long I've struggled with this, I don't believe Apple intentionally fixed it in iOS 18, but they did something where it now works the way it should. I've had an iPhone SE 2016, an iPhone 14 Pro, and 3 AW's a 6, 7 & Ultra. I've tried this with every iOS & AW update at least a dozen times each with no luck. I know not everyone had this problem, but I've chatted with a bunch who dealt with the same shit. For every version of iOS and AW, when I'd try to sync music on my phone (from iTunes on my PC) using the music app on the phone to the AW, it would maybe work, but more often than not it wouldn't. And when it would actually sync an album, it wouldn't show …

iPhoto Help
by Guest /u/Any_Stage5951- 0 replies

Hi everyone, I am not a native mac user, and there is no apple shop / genius bar nearby. An older couple asked me to help them out with a new issue they faced. The problem: iPhoto Library has effectively wiped out all their albums and pictures that were present yesterday. A dialogue of some sort popped up, and once they selected an option, poof, everything was gone. Now, being an older couple, their folders with pictures were a little all over the place. In the trash, there were about 2,000 images, but they are dead certain that those aren't the missing pictures. In the folders where I did find pictures / albums, they know certain files/folders are missing. However, j…
