2017 iMac boots into black screen after login
by Guest /u/ObscureCocoa- 0 replies
- 11 views
I have a 2017 iMac and I use it for mostly graphic and video editing. Today I was exporting some files from After Effects and wanted to reboot because the computer seemed sluggish. When I rebooted I entered my password and it went to a black screen. I waited a long time, but nothing appeared. I rebooted. Same thing. I tried resetting PVRAM as I’ve seen instructed. I can’t use Command R to get into recovery mode. I can get into single user mode but I can’t run any commands as root. It tells me “you do not exist in the passwd database” From my research so far it seems there is something wrong with my user. The solution usually is to login as a guest, but I do…

I have an iPhone 13 Mini running the latest version of iOS 17 and AirPods 2nd gen. I went into settings to adjust the Headphone Safety slider, and I saw Personalized Spatial Audio. I know this feature is supported on AirPods 3rd gen and AirPods Pro but why does it allow me to setup this feature if I only have the 2nd gen? submitted by /u/Musicmakercomposer [link] [comments]

According this the post below, the error is due to... Read more Source: MacRumors

iMessage & Contact Card Issue
by Guest /u/fiori254- 0 replies
- 19 views
My texts with my husband have been messed up ever since the ios18 update. I have two phone numbers associated with his contact card: 1) his personal cell 2) his work cell (both iPhones). I have his personal cell set as the preferred/starred contact. However, whenever I go to text him, it always defaults to his work cell. Additionally, whenever I get a text from his personal cell, on the notification it shows up as his phone number only, not his contact name. However, when I open the text or look back at my messages, the texts are all associated with his contact card name. I know many others are experiencing this bug as well with ios18, but wondering if anyone has found a …
