    Apple Reminders App Date Always Incorrect

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 04:24 PM PDT

    I love apple reminders app for my iPhone. Recently, however, every reminder I set is off by one day. If I set a reminder for today it shows up in the "yesterday" section of "scheduled" reminders. If I set one for tomorrow, it shows up today.

    I've tried signing out of iCloud, turning off my phone, setting a new reminders list on www.icloud.com, unsyncing reminders from iCloud then syncing again. Nothing has worked.

    Interestingly it shows up correctly on my iPad even if it's incorrect on my iPhone.

    How do I fix this?

    What would be an ideal MacBook Pro for video editing?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 08:54 AM PDT

    So I've been needing a new computer for work and I've always been a Mac user. Currently, I use an iMac (I forget what year, but it's either 2011 or 2012 I think) that has trouble running the softwares that I use to edit, and I need something that will run smoother and is efficient for editing on-the-go. I mainly use Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, and Screenflow. I'm wondering what setup I should choose when customizing a MacBook Pro on the Apple website. Please let me know what you think. Obviously, I know that simply maxing out the specs would be my best choice but is it truly necessary? What would the most ideal purchase be?

    iPad Pro charging

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 02:20 PM PDT

    Can anyone help me find usb c chargers that are compatible with the iPad Pro? Does the charger need to be usb c to usb c or can it be usb c to usb a? Also does the 30W power adaptor allow for the quickest charging? I'm not sure if 61 W and above have any significant benefit.

    Should I join the "Apple Ecosystem"?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 09:23 PM PDT

    So I got an iPad Pro 12.9 inch with an Apple Pencil (2nd generation) for school to replace all of my books and it's crazy how much more productive it's made me, I can do my work ANYWHERE and study much more efficiently. My iPad Pro is my most used device.

    But I feel like it'd be even better I bought more apple devices or joined the "ecosystem"

    I use a Huawei phone at the moment and it's fine for me but it always feels like if I had an iPhone it'd integrate better with the iPad and my life would be even more productive with an Apple Watch on top of that.

    I'm thinking about upgrading my setup to this:

    • iPad Pro 12.9 inch
    • iPhone XR or iPhone XS Max
    • Apple Watch Series 4

    TL:DR Have an iPad Pro for school which is my most used device and want to buy the iPhone flagship + Apple watch to integrate the devices together in hopes increasing productivity as I currently own an Android phone.

    Money is not an issue for me, so please don't leave suggestions like "Save your money" or "It's a waste of money", I want what's best for me, even if it means minimal differences from the cheaper options :D

    Macbook Air diagnosed with Logic Board failure but now works?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 05:17 PM PDT

    My gf's MacBook Air 13" 2015 was diagnosed by apple with a logic board failure. They asked for over $400 to fix it, which she declined. She bought a new computer and the MBAir turned into a paper weight for about 2 months. I recently found a used logic board on powerbook medic for $300 and she'd let me keep it if I fixed it.

    Took out the logic board and cleaned up the internals with compressed air along the way. I take out the logic board from powerbook medic and guess what? they sent me a different one (Top is ours, bottom is from powerbook medic). Well I put the MBAir back together with the old, non working logic board, and decide to press the power button just because. This thing boots up completely, login and everything.

    What the hell???? Is this a misdiagnosis? Should we bring the MBAir back to apple for another diagnosis?

    Is there an Anti-Glare (matte) privacy screen for iPhone XS?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 09:02 AM PDT

    Hi!

    I'm looking for a new privacy screen for my iphone. I prefer having the anti-glare finish but I have not been able to find a screen that has both the privacy filter and the anti-glare finish. This screen doesn't even need to be glass or "protective" in the proper sense as I am just looking for it to provide privacy and diminish reflections. Any suggestions?

    iPhone X with Apple Care+

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 08:17 PM PDT

    Just about 10 minutes ago the top half of my screen is dimming itself constantly. Almost like a candle flicker. I've used both of my "accidental damage" however I was just sitting down texting when the screen started flickering. I am in a very humid area. Will my AppleCare + assist me in fixing the display? There are no cracks on my screen and my phone is in an otter box if that matters. No drops recently (last drop was a couple months ago with no damage onto carpet).

    My dad left non-cellular iPad on plane; what happens when I activate Lost Mode?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 08:09 PM PDT

    My dad left an iPad on a plane about an hour ago and I activated Lost Mode with a call back number (via Find My). The only issue is that it is Wi-Fi only... Meaning, would anyone really see the message or is it all in vain? Are we better off using the Erase Device mode?

    Battery life on new MBP 2019 15"

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 03:22 PM PDT

    I just picked up my new MBP yesterday, and so far, I've been pretty concerned about the battery on this machine. First, the battery life is abysmal and lasts for only 4 or 5 hours with a dozen tabs open in Chrome and some coding (web design: HTML, CSS, etc.). Secondly, the percentage indicator in the menu bar isn't very accurate. It will "jump" very wildly. For example, it was stuck at 27% for about half an hour, and then it suddenly dropped to 2%. When I was charging, the percentage would go up in increments of 7% or even up to 10%. Thirdly, another problem I had was that the battery indicator would take a long time to update. When I would plug my charger in, I would have to wait about thirty seconds until the status indicator changed to "Power source: adapter." Same thing happened when I took the charger out. Are the "big jumps in battery percentage," slow indicators, and abysmal battery life expected on the first day of use of a new Mac, or do I need to go to my closest Genius Bar?

    Unidays in store

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 03:15 PM PDT

    I know you can use unidays in order to gain the student discount online but I was just wondering whether I would be able to use my Unidays ID on my phone as form of student ID in store in order to gain the discount in store.

    Sorry if this is the wrong place to be posting but I can't seem to find a solid answer anywhere.

    Thanks in advance

    Powerbeats 3 wont charge

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 06:59 PM PDT

    Every time that I go to charge my powerbeats 3, they won't charge and flash a red/white light. I have reset them multiple times to no avail, and can get no help from the apple website. Any tips? Also is this something I should just take to apple? I have checked the cords and they are working, so the problem is in the headphones.

    Impossible to log in to iTunes, not really sure what to do.

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 06:30 PM PDT

    Imgur link first so you can see my problem

    Not sure if anyone here could help me but can anyone think of a reason this error occurs? I am trying to log in to iTunes on my windows 10 pc, and every time I try with my account I just get that error that states I have to log in with my computer, which is exactly what I'm trying to do.

    I have tried on my phone and my other computer and got the same error message both times. I have reinstalled several times and have tried everything else I could think of. I even tested with a brand new account that I created just to test and sure enough I was able to log in with that account but not this one. This is such a bizarre error and I am genuinely stumped as to what the reason for it appearing is.

    The official support channels have been unhelpful at best as they just tell me to do the same basic troubleshooting 10 times and call it good. Just looking for anyone who may be able to give me some insight as to why this error is happening.

    Thanks!

    Google contacts won't sync with Mac mini running Mojave 10.14.5

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 11:56 AM PDT

    Series of events.

    I got my Mac mini on Friday, and when I got it I had a ton of issues with it such as getting iMessage set up and Contacts to sync. Turns out the iMessage was an Apple thing, they flagged my account, and after tons of research (of which, of course, I can't remember), I managed to SOMEHOW get my Google contacts and iCloud contacts to sync with the contacts app.

    After that, I went to the Catalina beta and came back with a fresh install. Now that I'm back, I can't for the life of me remember how I got my contacts to sync. Turns out a bunch of people online had a similar issue but none of their fixes I've tried here work properly.

    Anyone familiar with this?

    Can I run GarageBand from an external HD?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 05:45 PM PDT

    Sorry if this is dumb. My GarageBand is always saying engine is too slow and it can't play my tracks I'm making. I have a 1TB external hard drive, can I move all my stuff to that and run from there, or does that even matter?

    When I want to download an app or listen to apple music, I get the message that I have to change to the swiss store. When I tried to do that, the message „spend all your balance“ shows up. How am I supposed to spend my balance, if I‘m not allowed to buy anything off the app store?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 04:59 PM PDT

    I had the no service issue with my iPhone 7 I assumed I would just get my phone fixed but apple gave me a new phone instead. I set it up and noticed the first letter of the serial number was an F does this mean apple gave me a used iPhone ? If so would it be possible to get a new one ? Thanks

    [iPhone 7 + 2015 Macbook Pro 13" Retina][iOS 12.3.1, MacOS Mojave] iMessage not sending messages from Mac (iMessage on Mac to iPhone), but SMS works (iMessage on Mac to non apple)

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 04:52 PM PDT

    Having an issue where I cannot send messages from iMessage on my Macbook to other iMessage devices. Weird thing is SMS messages work fine, and I can use iMessage on my Macbook to send messages to Android devices.

    Worked for a short amount of time after restarting my computer.

    Have tried force quitting everything, and preferences are in order. Signed out and back in of iMessage. Nothing.

    Thanks for any help.

    Best way to ”play all” videos from a photo album on Apple TV without the need to swipe to the next video or create a movie in iMovie?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 04:46 PM PDT

    (Not sure what flair to use since it's really an Apple TV issue but also potentially iCloud, macOS, iTunes, iCloud Photos, and Apple Photos, too.)

    Imagine you've gone on a vacation. You have an Apple Photos album for that trip (iCloud Photos; on your phone only; or maybe transferred to your Home Sharing iTunes photo library).

    Regardless where that album is stored, it contains both photos and videos. You get home, and you want to just enjoy the videos only on your Apple TV from start to finish.

    As of right now, I can only see two ways to do this:

    (1) View the videos from iCloud Photos; AirPlay from your phone; or pull from your Home Sharing iTunes if you copied them to your Mac;

    (2) Make a movie in iMovie and play it

    The problem with (1) is that you have to keep swiping to the next video; there's no way to just "play all" and have all your videos play sequentially like a good old video tape back in the day; you basically have to view them one by one like "video photos" essentially.

    The problem with (2) obviously is that it takes time.

    So my question is: surely there's a way to simply "play all" videos in an album to just get home from your vacation, sit on your couch, and enjoy your vacation videos from start to finish the same way we used to enjoy video tapes back in the day?!

    Thanks!!

    ITUNES NOT RECOGNIZING IPHONE; 0xe80003 ERROR THREAD!

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 10:33 AM PDT

    hello, i've been trying to solve this problem for like 3 days and i finally was able to solve it and wanted to share the steps i took to fix everything so that maybe someone could find it useful in the future.

    first: i removed all of the Apple programs from my PC in this order (according to this support page):

    uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:

    1, iTunes2. Apple Software Update3. Apple Mobile Device Support4. Bonjour5. Apple Application Support 32-bit6. Apple Application Support 64-bit

    then, i tried to install iTunes from Microsoft Store again - but that didn't work at all - plus all of the programs removed prior to that were not re-installed.

    so i searched the Apple's website for any older .exe downloaders and got this one:

    https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1816?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

    installed it - opened - it said it needed an update - i updated it, restarted the PC immediately after the update - and it worked! my computed finally recognized the iPhone again! i guess it's worth mentioning that i've also tried the 'holding Home Button on a turned off phone + connecting to the PC' thing - but that didn't do anything except it just updated my iOS.

    so, i hope it would help someone out there, as i couldn't find ANY useful materials whatsoever only these articles that recommend you to restart your phone and stuff.

    :))

    upd: MAN i just saw the button that allows you to download the .exe file at the download page........damn, why is it hidden away somewhere!!!! ok anyways i guess it's worth pointing out that Win Store version of iTunes is shit, so good luck.

    Next best option for fixing water damage to Mac?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2019 03:22 PM PDT

    My Mac has a burned charger port due to some water getting in there. It works fine but it can't charge. I took it to Apple and Best Buy and they told me it would cost 755$ to fix. That doesn't make sense to do because I paid 800$ for it. What is the next best option? I don't want to pay anyone more than 250$ to fix it. Should I keep looking around or just try to fix it myself from YouTube videos and online articles?
