Is anybody else experiencing this problem (I’m on my iPhone 13 Pro 15.0.2)? Whether it’s Safari or Brave, PiP for Youtube (non-premium) will show up briefly when returning to the home screen and then it’ll just disappear. I vaguely remembering that when I first got the phone last week, it was still working. Continue reading...

I do not get notified of some incoming calls (ringer), but others I do (apparently those in contacts). I have checked everything in settings and everything looks good. I've checked the switch on the side, it's set to ringer not silent. I am missing important calls since my daughter just died. I have AT&T, is this their problem? Continue reading...

have both iPhone 12 and iPhone X updated to the latest firmware. Use both my devices with the same backup file. problem is that right now the latest version of iPhone 12 is 15.1.1 but on iPhone X is 15.1, so the backup created on 15.1.1 cannot be restored on the device with 15.1. Any thoughts on that? Thanks Continue reading...

When wifi and cellular data are both switched on in the setting and wifi is connected, is it true that it will not consume the cellular data? I will probably forget to switch off cellular data every time wifi is connected Continue reading...

Hello Have a problem with Instagram Reels. I am unable to sync music to reels like i would like, it seems to mix the workflo on its own, cutting and editing clips to random lasting time. It has a black part in the time line since this starter ( hard to explain so attaching it in photo ). Also, unable to edit reel drafts anymore. Just doest allow it, the back button just returns me to the share page. Tried ; loging out, reinstalling app, iphone updated to 15.1, reinstall app again. Nothing... Read more Continue reading...

My iPhone 11 Pro Max worked normally for over a year, then one day I lost all cellular internet data for half a day. Then this happened a few days later. Off and on unpredictabibly. I contacted Apple repeatedly. I reset network settings, restarted, made sure data roaming was on, erased and restored, and eventually erased everything and re-installed app by app. The problem continued. I also had various apple stores check it, and they said it was normal. I replaced the SIM card, and disabled... Read more Continue reading...

On Monday, I was quite happily using WiFi Calling to make calls on my iPhone X from this rural area with no cellular coverage. Tuesday morning, I could not connect. Nothing changed to my knowledge. The phone is running 15.1. I have done all the recommended things, turn off and on, turn airplane mode off and on, reset the network settings, go to an area with cellphone coverage, check carrier settings, reboot the router, connect to another WiFi network, and so forth. Nothing worked. I have... Read more Continue reading...

Just noticed this by accident in Screen Time, no idea exactly what this "doc.0k-64-, file" is, but it constantly seems to be running non stop in the background. Does anyone know what exactly this file is. (I did put a limit on this file to 1 min. per day, not sure if this changes anything yet) https://forums.macrumors.com/attachments/img_0806-jpeg.1920033/ Continue reading...

Hi, I have an iPhone 6 under iOS 12. Each time I use the AirDrop feature to send a picture from my phone to my Mac (running Big Sur), I end up with the original photo rather than the one I edited on my iPhone. The only way I've found sa far is to connect my iPhone to my Mac with a USB cable and use macOS Image Capture app and manually select the edited pictures. It works, but it's not as convenient as AirDrop. Can I do the same with AirDrop? Thanks. Continue reading...

I’ve not owned an iOS device for a few years, but the past 6 months I’ve been on iOS. Now I am on the iPhone 13pm. I use voice to text A LOT. something that use to be very accurate on iOS. I’ve noticed that voice to text can NEVER accurately write a sentence I say. Even if I pronounce the words 100% accurately and slow. iOS still seems to mess up at least one word. It’s really irritating. What did apple change? Am I the only person with this issue? Anybody have any ideas on what I can check... Read more Continue reading...

So micron has come out with some really much more affordable high capacity SSDs recently. For example, if you are in the market for a 7.68 TB SATA based Drive, I’ve seen this drive for under $1000: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07JQ2F2WG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 However, they have recently released drives with even greater capacity, and more importantly nvme read and write speeds. Even the 15 TB drive is now under $3300, which makes it compelling if... Read more Source: MacRumors

I've got a user running a CMP 5,1 as a Windows/Linux CAD/simulation box in one of our labs, and unfortunately the primary program he uses is single thread only. For specific programs like that I would usually disable hyper threading, but I didn't remember seeing a good way to do that. I've been poking around but didn't see a hyperthreading/smt specific variable. Is there one that I'm missing? Appreciate the help! Source: MacRumors

My Mac Pro 2009 flashed to 5.1 has a Nvidia GTX680 GPU. I don't know if it's a genuine Mac version - can I tell on System Info? Will I be able to run High Sierra as it is or do I have to do anything else first? Will I encounter any problems if I start it up with a SSD boot internal disc from my 2010 Mac Pro which runs High Sierra? Source: MacRumors

Hi, I have a 2019 i-9 iMac and built an external SSD enclosure using a Sonnet Echo Express SE-I TB3. I have tried two different PCIe NVME adapters and my NVME SSD (Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2TB) is only reaching around 800 MB write speed. Sometimes goes up to 850-870 MB/s. I tried different brand PCIe NVMe adapters and even replaced the SSD (thinking it might be faulty), I also replaced cables, but to no avail. I contacted Sonnet and they said I should be seeing much higher speeds. Read speed... Read more Source: MacRumors

I bought a maxed out used late 2013 mac pro on ebay last august. Here are the specs right off the bat: 12 core Xeon Proccessor (E5-2697) 64 GB RAM DDR3 1TB SSD Dual Amd FirePro D300 GPU Currently operating this computer on Big Sur 11.6 This computer has performed amazing up until this point. 300+ tracks in Ableton 11 no problem. However, since the day I had first received this desktop, it would freeze and burst into constant system crashes for about 15-20 minutes. After starting back up a... Read more Source: MacRumors

Hello to all, I have a problem connecting the Mac Pro with a 27 "Thunderbolt Display, model A1407. I saw around the internet that in order to use this monitor with the Mac Pro, you had to use a DisplayPort to Mini Displayport adapter, and for convenience a Displayport extension cable (I put myself in the picture), however nothing, no signal... if instead I attack the Macbook Pro directly to the monitor cable all OK !!! Question, but the Displayport port of the Shaphire RX 580 video card... Read more Source: MacRumors

A while back I set up my mums iPhone 11. While I was setting it up and transferring everything it said that it had to be plugged in. I don't know what I was thinking but I didn't realise that I could have just used the old charger. Maybe this was packed away with the old phone but anyway, it set up ok without being plugged in and I went out and got the 20w charger so the supplied cable could be used. Now that the chargers aren't supplied and the newer ones are fast charging, is there any... Read more Continue reading...

new iPhone, 12 mini, bluetooth was turned on because I forgot to turn it off, but I have got no bluetooth device, WiFi was OFF, cellular data was ON, not too many apps have been installed so no notification was received. The battery drops from 85% to 68% in a night of sleep, smart battery usage was ON... does it drop too fast or is it perfectly normal? Was it largely due to that the bluetooth was ON Continue reading...

Hey gusy I dropped my XS a few days ago and I went to get it replaced by an authorized repair center and they did an analysis for it. When I went back they said they can replace the screen but found out that there might be something wrong with the battery and that I should have it replaced too, it still works fine but they cant say for how long it will be like this. The thing is, I'm in a bit of a financial struggle at the moment and cannot simply afford that much money if it's not... Read more Continue reading...

Maybe I'm mixing up this back from when I used to use android, but can you not select the folders that you want google photos to automatically upload to the cloud?

My new iPhone 12 Pro, connected to T-Mobile gets respectable speed test results in the iOS app, but it gets appallingly slow results when I connect a MacOS device to it through personal hotspot. In the menubar Network Preferences, I see the iPhone 12 Pro as a device, but it says "No Service" next to the battery indicator. I believe I have it set up properly and would often do so with the last two or three iPhones I have owned without an issue. Is there something screwy that I brought over in...

Some conceptual questions: If bluetooth is turned ON in iPhone setting but NO bluetooth device nearby, does it also eat battery as greatly or nearly as greatly as when bluetooth device is connected? Same questions for WiFi and location services, if WiFi is enabled, but not connected to any hotspot, and if location services is enabled, but not being requested by any apps. Does connected through WiFi kill battery faster or through cellular data? Do I need to turn off WiFi if connected... Read more Continue reading...
