Setting up my iPhone 14 Pro today using the iCloud back up option my Apple Music library downloads have ballooned and are eating up all my storage. I had about 130 GB of music downloads on my old phone 12 promax but just hit the 256 GB mark filling up my 14 Pro. Any idea how to troubleshoot this? Continue reading...

I just noticed that if I swipe left/right it’s taking me to previous pages I’m just viewing. Is this like a back button thing? I can’t follow what it’s doing exactly. It’s going to be handy once I figure out what it’s doing, but please explain if you will. Thank you Continue reading...

I got a new iPhone and sold old one. So I reset all content and settings do I need to remove iCloud or anything? A few years back someone came back as they couldn’t use the phone. I don’t want to delete my iPhone 14 back up. My wife recently sold her phone I don’t think she removed her iCloud do you still have to do this or has things changed? Continue reading...

Hi, Got new iPhone 14 Pro 256Gb yesterday via the Apple Update Program in UK. Discovered this morning that the alarm sounds are not coming from the iPhone internal speaker as they should when I have bluetooth headphones attached. Tried with both Beats Flex and Airpod Pros. In both cases, the alarm only sounds through the headphones themselves. This is a big issue for me, as I sleep at night with my Beats Flex on, but I need to be able to hear my phone alarm in the morning when... Read more Continue reading...

This isn't specific to the iP14 as it first happened on the 12 Pro when I updated to iOS 16. When doing spotlight search, which I frequently do to pull up an app, it takes 10+ seconds for it to pull up the results. For examples, I pull down to display search bar and begin typing M-A-P and at this point it would begin pulling up Apple Maps, Google Maps, etc. in the search results for apps on my device. Since I updated to iOS 16 (and migrated to iP14) this takes at least 10 seconds if not... Read more Continue reading...

Hey there, I've got a huge problem: When driving and using Google Maps to navigate, my new iPhone 14 Pro Max barely manages to pick up and update my location. I've never had any issues with my old iPhone Xs Max. I've tried using Apple Maps and Waze, same problem. I'm almost out of ideas, but I've still got two things to try: 1.) I'm new to MagSafe-equipped iPhones. I've gotten the original clear case from Apple. It contains additional magnets, maybe they interfere with the signal somehow... Read more Continue reading...

Hi all, wondering if anyone else has come across this issue? Messages app used to work fine then all of a sudden I stopped receiving text/iMessage notifications. I can see the message preview sometimes but then when I open the message, blank screen. I then go back to all messages and everything disappears completely! This was on my old X but now got a 14 Pro and same issue. Apple support don't know either. Thought it was to do with iCloud backup space fully used up 5GB so bought the 50GB...

So I got an iPhone 14 on launch day and wanted to try out a new NVMO carrier: Tello. I wanted to find out if it's worth the change of my current T Mobile service to a lower cost plan that supposedly uses the same towers. Easy sign up, eSIM was easy to activate, new phone line and $10 month service which blows my TMO monthly by 70% cheaper. I started to use it, set it up the same as my TMO iPhone 12 Pro. Exact same locations throughout the areas I drove to - 12 Pro shows 5G, 14 shows... Read more Continue reading...

I just moved devices. iPhone 13 to 14. Now my call history did move over but location for areas codes just shows “USA” instead of the city name. Is there something the I’ve done ? Edit. After receiving my first call all the locations magically reappeared. https://forums.macrumors.com/attachments/bb75b202-7c8e-4668-ad4f-99b0221ce169-jpeg.2069960/ Continue reading...

I have two iPhones. One is my trusty iPhone6s and the other, a more current iPhone12. I want to enable FOCUS on only the 6s. When I do, it automatically enables FOCUS on the 12 as well. I want to configure one phone independently from the other. Can this be done? Google searches on the subject haven't been of much help to me as I am a newbie to Apple product. Can anyone help? I appreciate your patience. Thank you. Continue reading...

Hello I recently purchased an iPhone 14 Pro Max. I am experiencing a problem in which a specific contact cannot FaceTime me. My other devices ring fine but not the iPhone and only from one specific contact. Anyone familiar with this issue? Thank you Continue reading...

Took my 14 Pro off the charger this morning and found it had rebooted overnight. Unlocked the phone and a few seconds later it crashed back to the Apple logo… and so it has continued ever since. The phone stays up if I don’t unlock it, but as soon as I unlock it will crash back to he Apple Logo within 20 seconds. Haven’t been able to complete ‘Erase content and settings’ because the phone crashes before it can complete. Anyone else had any thing like this? It was working fine yesterday...

I started to set up my new iPhone 14 today and wanted to bring all my old texts over from my current iPhone X. I didn't previously have Messages synced to iCloud so I turned that on today. After 12+ hours of my phone being plugged in/connected to wifi, my iPhone X says that only 120 MB of Messages have been uploaded to iCloud (out of 15+ GB of messages). And the only thing that appears to make that number increase is turning my phone off and on. Some texts did sync to my iPhone 14 very... Read more Continue reading...

Hey all, got my 14 Pro Max (direct from Apple as I do every year) and stuck my Vodafone SIM in it. Everything works but mobile data is horrifically bad especially 5G which is more or less unusable. I’m getting speeds of about 3mbps on 5G with my wife’s 13 Mini next to me (also on Vodafone) getting well over 100mbps. Loading webpages or even streaming media on 5G is next to useless. But even 4G is horrendously slow. I’ve reset my network settings and also wiped the phone and started... Read more Continue reading...

My iPhone 14 Pro Max is dropping cellular about every 10 min. It is obvious when looking at the status bar, but that is now often hidden while in Always On Display mode. While at home it has made it so that I had to retry to send text messages after it resolved itself. While at the park I got several “no home hubs are responding” notifications which correspond to a cellular loss of service event. (Without these I may have considered it a UI glitch or just a lagging UI when switching towers... Read more Continue reading...

Top/power button jammed. What happens if I don’t fix it all and just use the accessibility button? Are there situations where having the top button working will be absolutely required?

So I’m on upgrade program. Upgrade every year. At this point it’s practically an autopilot type situation, but this year has been the most frustrating. iPhone 13 Pro with iOS16 to iPhone 14 pro with iOS 16 has not gone smoothly at all. It’s all weird little things: - Unlock iPhone and watch one unlock. That’s worked since Apple Watch zero but now was turned off. - iPhone 13 Pro I forgot my guest network so it wouldn’t connect to that, iPhone 14 pro automatically connected to guest network...

A month or so ago I bought two usb-a to lightning cables from the Apple store since both the ones at home and in my car were fraying. I now have this problem where the phone keeps connecting and disconnecting even though the cable in properly plugged in at both ends.

Hey guys, I used the direct transfer option to clone my iphone 13 pro max on to my iphone 14 pro max. It took 2 hours and after that my 14 got bricked. No reaction to hard reboot. Saw this happening to someone else on this forum, but he somehow managed to get it back on, just don't know how. Anyone else getting this? Also, just wanted to add another report of this so the online chatter will force Apple to react faster. Continue reading...
