Apple Daily Tech Support Thread [October 17] |
- Daily Tech Support Thread [October 17]
- Wallpaper Wednesday [October 17]
- Apple overhauls its privacy pages, & now lets U.S. customers download their own data.
- A friend of mine kept arguing how low the iPhone XR screen resolution is, whilst using his iPhone 8 as an example as to how a “HD screen should be”
- This is why I love Apple: Last night I came across my 9 y/o iPod Touch (3rd Gen) and my similarly aged HTC EVO. 24 hours later my iPod still has over 75% battery, runs like a champ, connects to iTunes and the App Store, and plays Hulu content using an older version of the app. My EVO, not so much.
- A year and a half ago I asked "what features would Android have to include for you to consider switching", with new versions of iOS and Android since then, what would your answer be now?
- After all these years, the newest version of iTunes still supports 1st generation iPod from 2001!
- Apple begins selling 2018 certified refurbished MacBook Pros, deals from $1,529
- Apple's Latest Mac Mini Turns Four Years Old Ahead of 'Pro-Focused' Refresh Expected Later This Month
- ARM processor for Macs coming in 2020 or 2021, Apple car in 2023 says Ming Chi-Kuo
- Apple gives US customers the chance to download their data and updates its privacy page
- Auto updates: why don’t my apps auto update in the middle of the night? Why do they start updating first thing in the AM or middle of the day? My phone knows to update the OS middle of the night. Just not the apps.
- How come we don’t see leaked “Mac” hardware or info?
- Suggestion for Apple Music: "Favor" Explicit music.
- Smart Keyboard Extended Warranty
- What do you want to see at the Oct/Nov event?
- Anyone else really excited to get their hands on the new iPhone Xr
- It would be nice is Siri would play the most recently released album and not the album with the latest release date. "Hey Siri, play Vulfpeck's latest album" tried to play Hill Climber which doesn't release until December 7
- A simple compromise on call rejection
- My homepods seem to have gotten dumber, is there a fix?

- I'm usually not one to complain about Siri, but this is just infuriating
- Apple Seeds Fourth Beta of macOS Mojave 10.14.1 to Developers

| Posted: 17 Oct 2018 08:59 AM PDT A victim of UnboxTherapy's video, he kept going on about how Apple was going backwards and all that, then he took out his [regular] iPhone 8 and said "look at this amazing screen! Plays videos in HD the way it should be, why would Apple remove that ability?" Which is absurd because the regular iPhone 8 has the same ppi as the new XR, just goes to show how damaging getting UnboxTherapy to the trending page is.... [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 17 Oct 2018 05:20 PM PDT Hey all, I thought it might be interesting to see what features people thought that Android would need to start offering in order for them to consider switching over. As mentioned, I asked this same question a year and a half ago. You can view the original thread here. I think iOS and Android are both great operating systems and have spent time with each. I think that each has its trade offs and it comes down to the individual to find what suits them. I've asked the same question on /r/Android which you can see here. The old thread from /r/Android can also be viewed here. In the spirit of full disclosure and transparency, I am currently happily using an iPhone Xs. Cheers! [link] [comments]  |
| After all these years, the newest version of iTunes still supports 1st generation iPod from 2001! Posted: 17 Oct 2018 06:34 AM PDT I recently found my 1st gen iPod that's been in a box for probably 10+ years, ordered some FireWire converters from Amazon and plugged it into my MacBook expecting I would have to use some sort of open source program to sync music to it, but I couldn't believe it when iTunes opened up and it recognized it, even has a little image of the 1st gen iPod! So cool that Apple is keeping support for these old devices almost 20 years later! [link] [comments]  |

| How come we don’t see leaked “Mac” hardware or info? Posted: 17 Oct 2018 07:31 PM PDT With all this "New iMac, Mac Mini refresh, cheaper MacBook" talk going around for a supposed October event, why don't we ever see any leaked info on the computer side of things? It doesn't make sense seeing as to how we can know literally everything and all the specs about the iPhone and iPad months before Apple even announces an event. That said, will there really be new Mac refreshes this October? [link] [comments]  |
| Suggestion for Apple Music: "Favor" Explicit music. Posted: 17 Oct 2018 09:57 AM PDT I hope they add an option for that, what happens to me is that I go like Hey Siri, Play (song that has a lot of curse words but is lit) Siri plays the song and I get hyped up and start singing along, but then i get trolled by the non explicit version :( [link] [comments]  |
| Smart Keyboard Extended Warranty Posted: 17 Oct 2018 07:24 PM PDT Hey all, so I just wanted to share my experience getting my smart deyboard fixed today as I am not sure many people may know. So over the last few weeks I have been getting an "Accessory Not Supported" error on my 9.7 iPad Pro so after doing some searching online i read that Apple had extended the warranty on the smart keyboards to 3 years. Having had my keyboard for over 2 years now I thought I would make an appointment at my local apple store to see what they could do. Within a few minutes of telling them the problem the genius let me know that my issue was covered so I was able to walk out of the store with a new Smart Keyboard which I'm super happy about.

| What do you want to see at the Oct/Nov event? Posted: 17 Oct 2018 06:25 AM PDT For me I want new iPad Pros with USB-C, beats X2, new Apple pencil, airpods 2 and forest green sports strap. [link] [comments]  |

| A simple compromise on call rejection Posted: 17 Oct 2018 03:02 PM PDT Today I decided I didn't have enough unnecessary frustration in my life, so after answering yet another spam phone call (I was actually expecting a phone call from that area code) I decided to go into my call log and block the number. Of course this didn't work; I've gotten six calls today from the same scam, three of which left voice mails, and apparently each was from a different dead number so blocking as usual made no difference. Still, how cool would it be if Apple gave an option to block a number right from the call answer/reject screen? It wouldn't needlessly complicate the screen, and in this day and age it's such a frequently needed function that they ought to streamline it. Just add a "block caller" button or slider to the incoming call screen, have a confirmation dialogue pop up, and then if the user taps the button to confirm the block, the call is rejected without going to voicemail and the number is added to the block list. I'd be pretty happy with this. Not as happy as I'd be with a total redesign of the way incoming calls are handled, but it would be a start. [link] [comments]  |
| My homepods seem to have gotten dumber, is there a fix? Posted: 17 Oct 2018 01:43 PM PDT My entire home set up got wiped by the stupid One Link smoke alarm (DO NOT BUY) so I had to start from scratch. Since right around then my homepods have become increasingly difficult to use. I used to say hey Siri turn on all of my lights and it would do just that but now it plays the Kanye song all of the lights. I used to say play my chill mix and it would now it plays some song called chillmix or something. Overall it just seems more difficult to get stuff done. Anyone know of a reset or training method?
