    Changing my Apple ID login email

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 06:25 PM PDT

    I have had my Apple ID for years. It is a 3rd party email address. (GMail). I am almost finished removing Google from my online life, one of the few remaining things is the email account which is also my login ID for my Apple ID.

    I have an iCloud email address associated with my Apple ID and I have read Apples instructions on switching my login ID from the gmail to iCloud and I think I am ready. My question is I have a paid developer account with Apple tied to account as well.

    Are there any "gotchas" associated with this process I should be aware of? As I say it seems fairly straight forward but having never done this before I wanted to ask for advice.

    Thanks in advance.

    Cheers,

    iPhone 7 won't charge or turn on

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 09:26 PM PDT

    Hello,

    I dropped my iPhone 7 today and no matter what charger I use, it won't turn on. The screen is not shattered and it seems fine but when I hold down the volume, power and home button the apple logo will not appear :(

    I have used up all my iCloud storage or whatever it is. Is there a way to recover my phone, be it at a repair shop or otherwise?

    Thank you

    my iphone 6s screen keeps going black.

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 08:26 PM PDT

    around two weeks ago i broke my phone. i didn't think it was a big deal and since i was on a tight budget i got it fixed at a mall kiosk. this place obviously did not have the original apple parts, but the screen works fine and was dirt cheap. then today the screen began going black for five minutes at a time with about 3-4 hours in between each blackout. i know the phone itself isn't dying because my music kept on playing, and if i tried to take a screenshot it would show up in my camera roll later.

    is the new screen causing this? i'm sure it is but i would like to make sure before i get it fixed.

    Delete photos from iCloud, but not from devices

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 08:05 PM PDT

    Hey I want to remove photos from my iCloud (and thus, will stop using iCloud for photo backup except for the free 5GB backups of everything else) but I don't want to remove them from my devices.

    Is the only way to do that directly on iCloud.com? I'm kind of concerned that I'll delete photos I have permanently.

    Right now I have iCloud Photos backup turned OFF, but the photos remain in the iCloud currently. I assume up until my subscription terminates on the 5th. I want to downgrade and stop paying for iCloud and just do manual backups (of photos) to my MacBook.

    It's not such a problem that they are removed from my phone, because they'll still be on my MacBook. The backup is the important part. I am just fearful of deleting photos anywhere, and iCloud "syncing" this deletion by deleting them elsewhere too.

    So, what's the right way to do that?

    Cannot Load Intel Power Gadget Driver

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 07:46 PM PDT

    I recently attempted to download Intel Power Gadget for my 2015 15" MacBook pro on 10.14.5 (Mojave). After installing, I got the following error:

    "The Power Gadget driver is not currently loaded. If you just installed the app, please load the driver by going to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General, and Allow the system software from "Intel Corporation Apps". Then restart your computer. "

    Unfortunately, upon going to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General, I realized I did not have an allow button.

    At this point, I tried uninstalling intel power gadget, disabling Gatekeeper, allowing applications from anywhere, and re-downloading the software, but this produced no luck.

    I then looked in System Information, and under disabled software saw the following:

    Z3L495V9L4 - com.intel.driver.EnergyDriver:

    Version: 3.5.5

    Reason: No User Consent

    Date Disabled: Unknown

    Unfortunately, there is no way I am aware of to remove software from the disabled software category.

    Since I saw that it was a consent issue, I disabled kext-consent in an attempt to lift the requirement (although I doubt this is the issue). This produced no luck.

    I then considered that maybe it was my account, so I created a new admin login and re-downloaded the software. Again, no luck.

    I'm looking for a way to allow the power gadget driver to be loaded. Once again, please note:

    I do not have an allow button, and despite uninstalling and reinstalling every step, I was unable to get this button to appear,

    According to System Information, the software is under the Disabled Software category, which I don't know how to enable any software from.

    If you have a solution to this problem, please let me know. Thanks!

    Connecting Macbook Pro to Airplay kills laptop connection

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 07:20 PM PDT

    I am using a 2017 macbook pro running the latest Mojave.

    When running a speed test while on wireless without airplay turned on, I am getting 160+ mbps for my connection.

    When I connect to airplay to share my screen, my connection speed goes to 3-5mbps.

    Does anyone have any similar issues to this or know of a fix? I can run a speedtest on any other device while connected to airplay and they are receiving 160mbps

    I would expect a drop in connection, but loosing just about all of my connection is just unacceptable, can't even stream a youtube video to the TV at that speed.

    Is it possible to upgrade the storage in a MacBook pro?

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 02:45 AM PDT

    Its a macbook pro 13 inch. Without touch bar. My school is offering to chip in on school computers. But that is the only model they will substitute. It is the 2019 model. Just wondering if you can upgrade the storage because 128 gb seems kinda low as I'm coming from windows computers.

    iPhone Activation Lock

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 06:49 PM PDT

    I previously posted here about an IPhone 6s that we found at a Salvation Army. We were able to erase the data and can set it up. But the phone has "Activation lock" enabled. Since the phone was donated we have no clue who the original owner was. Could anyone at an Apple store help us?

    MacBook Air Early 2015 M2 Adapter

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 01:12 PM PDT

    Hello guys! I have an early 2015 MBA and I need to change the ssd. I'm thinking about Samsung 970 EVO or something cheaper. The actual and original Ssd have a write speed of about 200mbs and the read is 900mbs

    The problem is that I read that with mvne there are problems with long sleeps and kernel panic. I never shutdown my Mac, it always sleeps, sometimes for days.

    Do anyone knows which is the right adapter to buy to prevent the problem? I looked everywhere but can't find an updated answer.

    My Mac if on Mojave and will be on Catalina soon

    Thanks:)

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 04:49 PM PDT

    I have a glyph black box 2TB external hard drive that worked until today when it doesn't show up on my mac. The hard drive is lit up and on, but it does not show up in finder. I checked disk utility and it does not show up there. I have hundreds of school files on this hard drive and I cannot lose them. What do I do?

    Windows 10 - iCloud Photos using iCloud Drive app from the Microsoft Store - how do I *not* upload my PC photo library?

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 03:45 PM PDT

    I have a separate photo library on my PC (C:\username\Pictures) that predates my iPhone. My iCloud Drive setup was such that the only interaction my PC had with iCloud Photos were the special Upload and Download folders (located at C:\username\Pictures\iCloud Photos). I did not have and do not want my PC photos on iCloud.

    Now I download the new and improved iCloud Drive app from the Microsoft Store (v.10.4) on Windows 10 v.1903. I turn on iCloud Photos - the description says "Upload and store your PC photo library in Cloud and access photos and videos from all your devices".

    The status box in the corner says it's Initializing 20,000+ items. My iCloud Photo Library (including videos) is only 15,000 items. I have 29,000 files in my PC pictures folder. My assumption is that it's trying to upload my entire PC pictures folder.

    Is this a bug and it won't actually upload my photos? Do I need to move my PC photos to a temporary location — and what happens when I move them back? Am I stuck with using iCloud.com to upload pictures from my DSLR?

    What’s the proper process for writing info into PDF forms on iPad Pro 10.5? I can’t open any of my pdf files in Pages, they are all greyed out.

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 03:41 PM PDT

    10.5" iPad Pro. I open a pdf document in Safari. Click the arrow in the corner to select save as pdf. From here I can hit the pen icon to fill in my info with th iPencil. Then I can save the edited pdf to Files in the Pages folder (but I can't change the file name for some reason). From there I email it off to work and everything seems good. But now I can't open that edited pdf in Pages. I can see the file but it's greyed out.

    How am I supposed to open this pdf file and why is the entire process so convoluted and why can't I rename the document

    External Drive Damaged and Disk Utility Can Not Repair

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 03:08 PM PDT

    When I plug my external drive into my computer, it does not show up in Finder or on the Desktop as it used to. It does, however, show up in Disk Utility. When I try to run First Aid, I get a message saying that the partition map on the disk is damaged (I have two partitions on it, one for backing up various files and another for Time Machine), and Disk Utility is unable to repair it.

    What should I do now?

    Reset deceased brother’s iPad?

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 02:01 PM PDT

    Some brief background. My brother passed away a few weeks ago, and I'm currently in possession of his iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. I have access into his phone via passcode, but his iPad apparently has a different passcode.

    He's on a payment plan for all devices thru Verizon, with only like $75 left on the iPad.

    If I do an erase device from Find my iPhone on the iPad, will that remove activation lock and allow the iPad to be transferred to someone else? Or is going to Apple with a death certificate and a receipt the only viable way of basically resetting this iPad?

    What's the best way to setup an iPad 3?

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 01:03 PM PDT

    I have a couple of iPad 3s which these days are painfully slow. I know it's old tech, but I just really want to use these so the kids can watch Netflix and YouTube, maybe a bit of Safari.

    What's the best way of setting these up so they are at least a bit like they used to be in terms of responsiveness? Happy to jailbreak if needed, any advice gratefully received!

    Apple Wallet not showing up | MAC

    Posted: 29 Jun 2019 12:46 PM PDT

    I hope I can find help here. If I try to open the Apple wallet it shows a box saying:

    You can't open the "Wallet & Apple Pay" preferences pane because it is not available to you at this time.

    To see this preferences pane, you may need to connect a device to your computer.

    I researched a little bit and found some posts on the Apple forum with the tip that I have to open ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist and change PKSecureElementAvailableFlags from a 1 to a 3

    Things I tried:

    • logout / login
    • changed the value of PKSecureElementAvailableFlags via terminal with defaults write.
    • changed the .GlobalPreferences file via XCode
    • cry

    I have a MacBook Pro 15'' 2017 with touchbar so it should be available.

    Thanks

    Unfortunately I am just out of the apple care plan window (60 days) in Canada. If I purchase Asian Apple care which is anytime within your 1 year warranty is that care valid for repair in Canada. Any help would be appreciated.

I've when under sounds and haptics,, slide the ringer and alerts volume all the way up,, toggled the change with buttons option, put the ringer volume loud separately from the volume button, AND NONE OF THS WOKS. Today was the last day my boss was having it and it sounds like a crappy excuse BUT IT KEPT HAPPENING. at the BEST. the alarm is loud for 3 seconds but then goes down to an abnormally low volume.. I've force w my iphone XR, I've updated the software, I'M DONE. Never in my life would i imagine getting fired because of a damn iphone RINGER VOLUME. Ive RESEARCHED all over the net and if i hear "go to sounds and haptics" one more time, i will break tihs useless POS once and for all. WHY DOES IT APPEAR LOUD FOR 2 SECONDS THEN GOES TO AN ULTRA LOW VOLUME??!? don't want to make genius appointmnt foR this and just want to switch phones already..

    Ii also fall asleep to podcasts at a low volume but the RINGER volume is set all the way up so my frustration i palpable at this point.
