Ideal Keyboard for Docking Station for Both Mac and Windows
by Guest /u/Entire-Instance7249- 0 replies
- 7 views
So long story short, I have a dell docking station connected to two monitors that I use for both my macbook as well as a windows work laptop. With that being said, it can be VERY tricky using one keyboard for the setup due to the keybinds switching. Is there a good keyboard out there that could be used for both laptops? Preferred if it can be plugged into the docking station (either wireless or wired). I'd like it so that I can plug either laptop into the docking station and have the keyboard automatically work with the appropriate OS. submitted by /u/Entire-Instance7249 [link] [comments]

How to Disable Mail Categories on iPhone in iOS 18.2 & Return to Old Inbox Style
by Guest Jamie Cuevas- 0 replies
- 6 views
If you have recently opened the Mail app after updating to iOS 18.2 or iPadOS 18.2, you likely discovered that Mail now defaults to a Mail “Categories” view, showing distinct mail category inboxes; “Primary”, “Transactions”, “Updates”, and “Promotions”. Presumably Apple chose to redesign everyones inbox and enable Mail Categories by default on iPhone and iPad ... Read More Continue reading...

Loving iOS 18.2
by Guest /u/froandfear- 0 replies
- 8 views
Feels like I'm in the minority, but that might just be a Reddit thing. All of the UX issues that iOS 18 smacked my phone with seem to have been resolved. None more important than the widget sizes lining up correctly now (I say in only partial jest)! The tinting/dark-mode flowing through to the entire interface is a nice touch that should have existed at release. Obviously, many of these fixes are very low-hanging fruit, but my phone feels like a solid Apple product once again. Now, if I could only convince my brain to use the dedicated photo button... submitted by /u/froandfear [link] [comments]

https://a.thumbs.redditmedia.com/vnyXXIsmo_PN2gGlGU0rnbxkSwlK-UT83NW3HpP0sh0.jpg Ok I’m on iOS 18.2 and not a huge fan of the email update. Now I get no badge counters for my mail. Went to settings > apps > mail > notifications > customize notification and changed it to all unread messages. But still no badges. Also checked that badges is enabled under settings > apps > mail > notifications. This is kinda annoying anyone else have/solve this issue? submitted by /u/subflat4 [link] [comments]

Shared Album = Almost Unlimited Storage? Is this a trick?
by Guest /u/Jealous-Jello-3332- 0 replies
- 8 views
Hi everyone! I’m new to iPhone, and I came across some posts saying that if you add photos to a shared album in the iPhone Photo Library, they’re stored in the cloud but don’t use up your iCloud storage. Before risking any valuable photos, I wanted to ask: Is it true that shared albums don’t count against iCloud storage? What happens to the shared album photos if I switch to a new iPhone? I tried creating a shared album and shared it with myself. I deleted the original photos from the camera roll and even from the "Recently Deleted" folder, but the photos remain in the shared album. However, I noticed something strange: when I log into iCloud from my PC (W…

Apps keep trying to open Safari, but my default Browser is something else. Sound familiar?
by Guest /u/tropical_madlib- 0 replies
- 7 views
Hello all! I am wondering if any of you have experienced the weirdness I am experiencing lately. I use Opera as my default browser and did my best to delete all traces of safari.... yet any time an app needs to open a browser window, it will ONLY initiate in safari (which inevitably does not work because I do not have it installed). This only started happening after I last updated. It's weird and it means I now can't log in to any of my Google apps on my phone. Has something like this happened to you? Has anyone found a solution? submitted by /u/tropical_madlib [link] [comments]

All photos and links are gone (iPhone 15)
by Guest /u/orangebluefish11- 0 replies
- 7 views
When I’m in my messages app and tap on a contact icon, it normally takes me to the text page where I can see our entire history of shared photos and links. Every single contact is like this now and I definitely have not deleted them. When I actually scroll through the history of the messages themselves, I can still see photos and links, but just not the quick view on the second page Has this happened to anyone? Anyone know how to return this feature? submitted by /u/orangebluefish11 [link] [comments]

What is going on with podcasts in iOS 18
by Guest /u/Munda1- 0 replies
- 5 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…

Can you still change background color of custom icons in Shortcuts?

https://b.thumbs.redditmedia.com/qgBAM0LT5kmNd_e27vS7xnn5aPDhs18mQWItc1td4pA.jpg I made these custom icons using the Shortcuts app in iOS 17. With the new update, I can’t seem to change the background colors using the custom icons, only the preset icons. The top 3 and bottom 4 apps still have the custom colors but the 4th one (Snapchat) is the one I’m trying to change. Any help is appreciated. submitted by /u/eightdollarbeer [link] [comments]

Mail - outlook asking for confirmation to delete emails all of a sudden since update to iO18.2 but only for one account…?
by Guest /u/Bruise197- 0 replies
- 16 views
I’ve got 2 outlook inboxes in my mail app. I tend to delete my bin and spam folder quite regularly. Since the upgrade to iOS18.2 though, one of the mailbox keeps on asking me if I’m sure I want to delete the emails (across server…?) whilst this doesn’t happen on the second account. I checked the settings for mail and I have the confirmation of deletion toggled off. I’m confused about why this is happening… any ideas?

iOS 18.2 Touch issues
by Guest /u/CockroachLatte- 0 replies
- 9 views
I’m constantly experiencing touch issues across several different apps—touch doesn’t register on either of my iPhone 15 Pros. Restarting or quitting the app is the only fix, and it’s driving me crazy. Are you guys experiencing a similar issue? Is there any fix for this? Apple, fix your software. Seriously, hire some QA testers and make them actually test your buggy iOS before releasing it to billions of us. iOS 18 feels like you threw bread in the oven, took it out half-baked, and then decided, ‘Eh, toast is overrated anyway!’ What’s next—iOS 19 served raw? submitted by /u/CockroachLatte [link] [comments]

After finding out how to get badges back, now I’d like to be able to see how many emails each account has.

Ok so if my bluetooth earbuds are connected to my android, and I try to connect to them on my iphone, they disconnect from my android and connect to my iphone, no problem. If the buds are connected to my iphone, and I click to connect to them on my android, it connects right away, no problem. HOWEVER If the buds are connected to my iphone, and I click to connect to them on my Macbook Air, The iphone stubbornly refuses to allow them to disconnect automatically.

Is anyone else's ChatGPT and Apple Intelligence not working? ChatGPT extension missing.
by Guest /u/Timely-Squash2654- 0 replies
- 4 views
Hello everyone. I recently upgraded from the 18.2 Beta using Apple Intelligence and ChatGPT for a month or so now to the stable 18.2 release because I was prompted to do so. After updating, Siri no longer glows around the screen and is instead the older version. "Ask ChatGPT" Siri requests also do not work because Siri does not recognize that function. I then go into the Apple Intelligence settings to tweak ChatGPT and Siri responses and come to find out the whole section for extension is missing. I am at a crossroads now because I don't know what to do! I have tried making sure my language & region are the same, I switched it all to English (UK) to no avail. I res…

Wife phone refuses to create a “People” category for pictures of herself

I’ve had a frustrating weekend trying to figure out what is going wrong here. I can see from Google results I’m not alone in this issue, but basically my wife’s phone IS creating collections for various people in her photos, there’s one for me, our son, here mum & dad, brother, sister, even our dog…. But it absolutely refuses to make one for her! What’s even more frustrating is many of her pictures of herself, I have copies of my phone, and my phone HAS made a collection for her pictures. Implying there is no reason for the phone not to be able to recognise they are pictures of the same person. Most of the solutions on the internet I’ve found, all point to going…

Missing ChatGPT in Settings?

Asking if anyone knows what is going on here, but I was on the beta for 18.2 and I was able to join Apple Intelligence, see the ChatGPT settings, and setup my ChatGPT account. However, since I updated to the final version of 18.2, I lost the setting for ChatGPT and it seems everything related to Apple Intelligence seemed disabled "No writing tools available ..." etc. Any thoughts on how I might fix this or what might be happening? submitted by /u/anonymous_corgi [link] [comments]

iPhone 14 Pro Max screen acting weird and now completely black after iOS 18.2?

Curious if anyone has had a similar issue and what your fix was. Last night my wife’s iPhone started doing this thing where part of the screen was turning really light (colors looked like they were kinda blown out/white) but it was only from about the volume buttons down and it would kinda flicker. She went to her home screen and the DraftKings app (which was well below the volume buttons and in the middle of the screen) was not distorted at all along with another app that I can’t remember yet the remainder of the screen was distorted. She restarted her phone and the issue persisted and about 30 seconds later the screen went black and will not turn back on. We knew the ph…
