Is my iPhone dead?
by Guest Wingsley- 0 replies
- 4 views
Just this past spring, I bought a brand-new iPhone SE (3rd generation) direct from Apple with AppleCare. Just before bed, I decided to plug-in my iPhone for recharging overnight. When I plugged it in, nothing happened. It didn’t respond. I tried to wake it. I could not get it to do anything. The iPhone is dead as a doornail. I had a normal charge earlier this evening, has not been dropped, and was working fine. ??? There are no Apple stores within driving range. Continue reading...

I have a 10GB internet connection. How do I maximize it?
by Guest RyanFlynn- 0 replies
- 10 views
Hey Friends, I just moved and my new place has 10 Gigabit symmetrical fiber for $50/month. Absolutely overkill, but I'll take it! My Mac has 10gb ethernet, but my modem only has a single 10gb ethernet port which goes into my mesh router for the rest of the house. Can I use a 10gbe switch from the modem and hardwire my Mac and mesh router into that? Or what else do I need to actually take advantage of my fancy new internet? Thanks! Ryan Source: MacRumors

MP 5,1 boots up with 10.13 but not 10.8
by Guest cinclodes- 0 replies
- 6 views
I just obtained a Mac Pro 5,1 that came with OS 10.13. I swapped in an HD with OS 10.8, but it wouldn't boot up. I then connected an external drive with OS 10.8, and it did boot up. Finally, I tried a different internal HD with OS 10.8, and it wouldn't boot up. I cannot make sense of this strange combination of behaviors. I would like to run this computer with OS 10.8.

Searching Offline/Downloaded Apple Maps
by Guest snash22- 0 replies
- 14 views
My apologies for not using search function, internet here is painfully slow. I have downloaded the Apple map for my area. When I am not on WiFi I can not search for (addresses, businesses, streets, etc). For instance, if I am driving, and I realize I need gasoline soon, I haven’t saved the gas stations, and I can’t search the downloaded maps. Is this a bug, feature or setting? How can I search a downloaded map? Continue reading...

Restarting ICloud messages
by Guest /u/batryanjoker- 0 replies
- 6 views
My partner has had issues with her iMessage cloud storage for a while and it’s starting to get a bit inconvenient. She has a load of old messages on her iCloud and they just aren’t syncing properly with all of her new messages. She just got a new MacBook and wants to make sure her ecosystem is working properly and syncing right. She wants to just start it fresh with the messages she currently has on her iPhone and make sure that everything is synced. So I have made sure that the messages are stored on her phone, turned off message syncing and started the 30 countdown disable/delete in the cloud. My question is: Once the 30 days has finished and her message fro…

https://b.thumbs.redditmedia.com/S3uMTs2YbhjQ97zB2jkQZNPVM3RUI05QBhy4PtDMuko.jpg Hello, all. I have a iPhone 16 pro max. I’m trying to use live activities for football game going on right now. I’m suppose to tap the current game, then on the top right, there’s a clock symbol with a dot in in (live activities icon), once I tap it, it fills up with white then goes back to the hollow icon. I did everything I could, even restarted my phone, reinstalled the app, check all the settings (live activities enabled on everything), turned on background app refresh. Nothing. Anyone know a fix for this?? Thanks submitted by /u/Plenty_Drink_3049 [link] [comments]

How to extract pictures from non working app
by Guest /u/Puzzleheaded_Golf_68- 0 replies
- 8 views
Hi - many many many years ago I had a photo app (Pic Lock 3). It stopped working a long time ago with an iOS release (can’t remember which one), and now if I try to open it I get the message that the app has to be updated by the developer. It has sat on various phones for many years and the time has come to let it go. It has a couple of GB of photos in it and honestly I can’t even remember what they are, but I’m very interested . Is there any way to retrieve these photos before I delete the app? I have a windows PC. submitted by /u/Puzzleheaded_Golf_68 [link] [comments]

Im tempted with the studio to use with three external monitors and lots of ram.

What actual reasons do Apple have for not introducing a global back gesture
by Guest /u/sbut87201- 0 replies
- 20 views
I don’t see how they can logically explain the current inconsistency as beneficial to anyone for any reason. What possible drawbacks could there be for introducing a global back gesture preferably from either side of the screen? I’m not moaning here I’m just genuinely interested what’s stopping them from implementing a simple idea that to me most people just seems objectively better? submitted by /u/sbut87201 [link] [comments]

What is going on with podcasts in iOS 18
by Guest /u/Munda1- 0 replies
- 14 views
I had an automation set up on my phone to play podcasts when I connect to my cars Bluetooth since the phone would try to play music 80% of the time I connected. This has worked great for months. Since iOS 18 though it no longer just keeps playing the episode I was listening to along with the queue I had. Now it just starts playing whatever it decides should go in the ‘up next’ category. It doesn’t seem to do this if I disable the automation, but then it doesn’t always start playing podcasts when I connect to the car. I’m not sure what the difference between ‘saving’ and ‘downloading’ an episode is, but saving appears to help it decide what should play next. Why do t…

M4 mini storage opinion
by Guest /u/doncoco7- 0 replies
- 25 views
Hi, I’m considering buying an M4 Mac Mini and would like some advice. I already own an M1 MacBook Pro (personal use) and plan to get the base M4 Mac Mini (256GB SSD) since I have a Samsung T9 external SSD. My idea is to store personal files on the external SSD for easy sharing between the MacBook and Mac Mini. (I mean in case of need, plug and go) I mainly use my Mac for coding (iOS dev, Xcode for personal projects) and daily tasks. However, I’m unsure if frequently switching the external SSD between the two Macs will be inconvenient. My MacBook Pro has 512GB storage with about 160GB free, mostly occupied by personal files that I could optimize. I’ve avoided carr…
