So, every single year for the passed few I'm getting the new phone, and this year is the only one out of them ALL that I've got this much problems with protective glasses. I use same brands as last years, I even changed to be sure, every glass has the same problem.

Out of 6 glasses, 4 of them didn't stick properly (The other 2 broke on first drop). Leaving bubbles of air that are absolutely impossible to remove at a few places. I even recently put a protective glass on an iPhone 13 Pro Max with 0 issues, and an iPhone 14 Pro Max with also 0 issues. But 15 Pro Max ? I keep having the same one.

Anyone might know what this is about ? I'm trying so hard to remove the air bubbles my thumbs are going numb.

As said, my old apple watch series 7 randomly stopped tracking my vo2 max. Even when I got my series 9, it still hasnt tracked anything. I have done several outdoor walks/runs which seems to be the exercises it selects. Is there any settings that affect this? Please help.

My phone got stolen today, I managed to lock it within a few minutes from my Mac. I double checked to see if it would still be traceable after erasing it just in case. I did so after I came across this note in Apple Support - https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/icloud/mmfc0ef36f/icloud

If you erase a device that has iOS 15, iPadOS 15 or later installed, you can use Find Devices to locate or play a sound on the device. Otherwise, you will not be able to locate or play a sound on it. You may still be able to locate your Mac or Apple Watch if it is near a previously used Wi-Fi network.

Since erasing, the location hasn't updated and the option to play sound has gone so I feel this is either wrong, or the thief managed to turn the phone off. Has anyone else had the same issue?

Hey there, Wondering if anyone from Australia has used Apple TV to watch free to air. Can you comment what your experience has been like?

I lost my phone last night. Find My is activated. Phone is off. I activated lost mode, but it hasn’t been turned on.

It’s been 16 hours. I read somewhere the location only pings for 24 hours, is that accurate?

I am trying to set up a new phone and trying to sign in to my Apple ID on the new decide it is asking for the verification. Odd that is being sent to the other iPhone that is shattered and the screen is black

The texts are being sent to that other iPhone with the black screen and I do not have another phone to put the sim into and get the texts

Does anyone know how to do this ? Get the code another way ?

I hope I explained this clearly but basically trying to sign in my Apple ID on a new phone cause my other phone is completely broke but it is asking for a code I can’t text cause it’s on the broken phone

Hey all,

Is this (M2 Pro) the best Macbook deal right now? Pro or Air (I'm still considering all options, from the $750 M1 Air up to the new M3 Pro)-

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/apple-macbook-pro-14-laptop-m2-pro-chip-16gb-memory-512gb-ssd-space-gray/6455369.p?skuId=6455369

I have seen many people recommend this- https://www.apple.com/shop/product/FPHE3LL/A/refurbished-14-inch-macbook-pro-apple-m2-pro-chip-with-10-core-cpu-and-16%E2%80%91core-gpu-space-gray?fnode=e8f94a4181520bd2b3844aa6dfd826529b8184a3bb56a809ca09d3bcc4ea66f19e0ed7f4317b360709609e361f22d218ca1545bbb00609fd77850f16fb7f271226bc0acc704d3b45171ccb3301b10210

Looks like the same price ($1599) however the one at Best Buy is new and not Refurb. What are your thoughts? I haven't had a Macbook since my '09 Pro but I'm looking forward to using one again.

Thank you.

If you had it purchased through iTunes in the past, it should be upgraded for free.

Hi, I got a 15 pro max and bought a fast charging plug from Amazon

USB C Plug Fast Charge, 20W USB Type C and USB A Wall Charging Plug USC Mains Charger Adapter UK for Apple iPhone 14/14 Pro/14 Pro Max/13/13 Pro/13 Pro Max/12/12 Pro/12 Pro Max/SE 2020/11,iPad https://amzn.eu/d/1mI8bSM

A lot of people are saying it charges fast, which it does seem to but I use Ampere and it says I’m only getting 11 watts. That does seem right does it?

The battery was on 40% when I started the test

Hello!

Today I bought a 15 pro max, I waited until today because I've seen apple usually offers gift cards for buying at the Apple Online Store, I checked and it said 75€ gift card for an iphone 15 purchase, so my plan was to buy the iphone and later on buy airpods with that same discount.

I wanted to know when it's expected the gift card to be sent to me, I'm from Spain if that's relevant.

Thanks.

Hey, I just got my first iPhone, the iPhone 15 pro and I’m having issues with the screen. The touchscreen seems to be defective, when typing it frequently doesn’t register taps unless I press fairly hard. It’s not specific to any keys and happens about 40% of the time I press keys. This isn’t exclusive to the keyboard area of the phone either, it happens on other areas of the screen as well. I’ve also noticed that the phone will register my taps as being slightly above where I actually tapped. This has made using the phone very frustrating.

I am using a screen protector, but even with a screen protector I never had any issues like this before on my old phones.

Should I return this phone for a replacement? Or is this maybe an issue with all iPhone 15 pros?

I know Iphone 13 is water proof or something like that but let me tell you what happened to me a few moments ago…i literally just went to my bedroom and i left my phone in the table of the kitchen, and then when i go back to the kitchen my little sister threw to the screen liquid soap, why? I dunno why. I cleaned the screen as fast as i could but im fearing my phone is going to die or smth.

Owner of a 2015 MacBook Air 11 inch. Yes old but maintained in very good condition over the years. No games, no viruses.

For the last couple of years I've been getting error messages such as the one I have attached and other similar ones with "Com.apple" and "Commenter wants to use the “login” keychain"... "Please enter password"

At first I thought it was virus/scam/malware. I took it into an apple store to which they said it wasnt a virus or malware but a keychain problem. They worked on it for a solid 40 minutes and "fixed the problem" but then it happened again a few months later. I did the same thing again and on repeat they "fixed it" (this time a different apple store) and the problem occurred again weeks later. I tried even the apple support over the phone who couldnt solve it.

It seems very random when these messages appear- but never on the daily or weekly. Only monthly or just a few times a year. But I got it again last few days and its triggered me to post on reddit. I dont know how to get rid of something that apple support people at the Genius bar cannot fix. Seems the only way to get rid of it is to force shut down my computer, which I've done now at least 10 times.

What will happen if I keep doing this? or is there a better way of solving this issue without buying a new or another laptop? Besides this issue and occasional lag in speed, it works great still and I dont want to buy a new one if I dont have to.

EDIT: The "password" it is asking for it seems is my login password but that doesnt work. The box reappears straight away

My portrait lock is OFF but I can’t view anything in horizontal except forcing YouTube to full screen.

Normally, tilting the iPhone sideways would give me horizontal screen but not now.

Help!

I just spent 20 minutes trying to find the Apple TV remote. All the remote finder feature did was give vague signals on if the remote is nearby or far. Why has the TV been such an after thought for Apple? It’s also frustrating that I can’t set my soundbar as the default audio output.
