    Apple Help Help. Mid-2017 MacBook Pro working perfectly fine yesterday afternoon; come this morning I turn it on again and this pops up flashing. Already tried command+R, went through disk utility, first aid not working.. hard drive is unfindable. I have an appointment with Genius Bar in 3 days. Is there hope?

    These are just a fraction of the hundreds of titles from AUDIBLE that I can no longer get to play on my iPod Touch 2nd gen. How do I resolve this?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 07:42 PM PDT

    Im a dumbass. I bought an iPhone 8 plus with a fraud screen. Now Touch ID wont work.

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 06:07 PM PDT

    PROBLEM: As I learned today, when you change the screen on the newer phones, it bricks the touch id and makes it useless and the home button too. Screen still works.

    Is it possible to buy a bricked/iCloud locked iPhone 8 plus and swap in the screen and touch ID. Would that work? What solutions has the community found?

    Strange shown free space discrepancy between bootcamp assistant, about this mac, manage storage, and disk utility.

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 09:25 PM PDT

    I'm trying to use bootcamp to install windows alongside macos, but when I get to the partition section of bootcamp assistant, it isn't showing the correct free space to be able to partition. Same thing when I attempt to do it manually in disk utility. But the weird thing is if I right click on the OS drive and click manage storage, it shows the correct amount of free space. Same if I go to about this mac and look at the storage. This has been driving me crazy all day, any ideas?

    I am on a mid 2012 15" macbook pro with a 250gb crucial ssd running the latest mojave 10.14.6.

    Here is a screenshot of the different windows showing storage https://imgur.com/gallery/GoffwG4

    Phone loading slow possibly from iOS 13 beta??? Help??

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 09:21 PM PDT

    So anytime I'm on an app or trying to go on the internet, occasionally it will load slow, and the only way it will load is if I slide up on my screen so all the widgets pop up and the screen ends up loading in the background? Is anyone having this issue or does anyone know what it's from?

    New Apple Pencil, no pressure sensitivity?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 05:16 PM PDT

    Just bought an Apple Pencil 1 alongside an iPad Air 3, everything about the Pencil works fine except it has no pressure sensitivity. I tested this by drawing in Procreate and Goodnotes. I've tried charging the Pencil until full to update the firmware and tightening the nib, but nothing has helped. Any suggestions?

    How can I initialise my internal HDD?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 07:32 PM PDT

    27 inch iMac, Late 2009 model.

    I wanted to wipe the mac os and do a fresh install. However the internal HDD (1 TB) got uninitialised in the process. I am currently running mac os off an external drive. Is there a way to initialise the drive again? Attempting to format it via disk utility gives a failed error (linked below) and the internal drive goes off the list. It reappears after a restart.

    I there any way to fix this?

    Transferring content from android

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 03:15 PM PDT

    I am currently an android user and am switching over to the XR. I have worked with iOS before and it did NOT play nice with windows or android. All of my apps and such are on google play along with several hundred songs. How would I go about tranferrring my google play data and songs over from my J3 Orbit to the XR? I do have a windows 10 to act as a third hand if it is required. I looked on google and couldn't find anything other than iTunes which in past experience meant wiping the entire library and refilling it. Is there any way to just directly place the m4a file from my pc to the phone's file system and all somehow work?

    Lightning EarPods keep disconnecting in pocket or during any slight tug (iPhone 8 plus)

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 06:58 PM PDT

    Happens with the charger as well although it's not as inconvenient and sensitive. The headphones are still in the lightning port, but after any slight movement of the base, the headphones stop receiving the audio as if I took them out. Seems like a hardware problem I might have to take up with my cellular provider. Anyone else have this issue and know what causes it?

    You can access an AppleID with just a password and bypass 2FA (kind of)

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 06:48 PM PDT

    Today I found out something. Normally to login to an Apple website like icloud or another device you'd need the 2FA code if you've enabled it. For example, to login to icloud.com, you need a 2FA code produced by your device. But to login to icloud.com/#settings you do not need a 2FA code. It will let you login with only the password as if it's SSO and 2FA doesn't exist. You do need the code to do more than what's on that screen but the point stands that you can access an account with a password and nothing else. Why is this? I understand that the information you get is trivial besides the last four digits of the credit card and a list of the person's devices but shouldn't 2FA be needed to access absolutely anything on the account full stop? Why is this acceptable?

    Fastest free option to bulk remove EFIX data from close to almost 1,000 images on my macbook

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 06:47 PM PDT

    I downloaded ImageOptim and it is taking FOREVER. I changed the preferences and disabled Zopfli and PNGout. I also set the optimization speed to 'fast'. I started over and dragged in only about 1/3 of the images (everything under 1MB), and it's completed maybe 50 images in 30 minutes.

    Is there another free option out there that will work faster? Is there anything else in the preferences menu that might help speed up the process?

    Apple Music is weird

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 06:42 PM PDT

    Recently, my Apple Music has been acting out. Out of no where, while connected via Bluetooth to my car, it started skipping songs randomly. Sometimes it'll skip back to back, other times 30 seconds in, and sometimes it'll play the full song. I plugged it into car play and it seemed to have fixed the issue. However, I don't like car play as it reduces the loudness of my stereo system for whatever reason. I've tried logging in and out of my Apple ID and resetting my phone. Any idea of what I could do?

    [HELP] this is rly confusing -.- How do I transfer PC Photo Files to iPhone camera roll

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 12:40 PM PDT

    I recently transferred all my photos and videos from my iPhone to my PC to free up storage for Netflix movies. Now that my trip is over and i deleted the Netflix shows i want to get my files that i transferred from my iPhone to my PC BACK to my iPhone. The photos and videos on my PC are in folders organized by month and year(i.e. 2019-08). I tried so many things like Documents by Readdle, iTunes, iCloud but they all dont let me transfer folders. Theres about 3000 photos/videos so thats why i wouldn't want to select them all seperately. So my question is the title :d thx

    ‘Your computer or network appears to be blocking scripts’.... please help me unblock them so I can buy the makeup I want and be pretty!!

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 06:23 PM PDT

    I buy online quite a bit and I've never had this issue before. I keep getting an error message telling me my computer is blocking scripts and to unblock scripts from their payment thing to continue, and I can't work out how!

    I've tried on my iPhone XR (running software version 12.3.1) as well as my iPad Air 2 (unsure what software version it was running, I'm currently updating it to see if that helps) with the same issue on both.

    I've tried going to settings>safari>advanced and the 'enable JavaScript' slider is on.

    I've tried going settings>safari and switching off 'prevent cross-site tracking' and 'block cookies' but still nothing.

    what do I do??

    ETA: iPad finished updating, it didn't help.

    Two MBP Retina 15s - maintenance?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 05:58 PM PDT

    Asked this a week ago but nobody saw it. Hope I'm not breaking rules by posting it again:

    We bought two mid-2012 models new in August 2012. Both have had battery replacement (one lasted a lot longer than the other, mine) and one (wife's) needed a new fan which was done at battery replacement. Aside from that, both still working OK although hers crashes Chrome and Firefox frequently.

    Both run really hot and will drain the battery in less than 3 hours just surfing the web. I've checked and the fans are working but even when it's super hot they don't go high, but fans on the other one do, more when running SIMs. SIMs kills her battery faster as well.

    I've read about R&R the heatsink compound. Other ideas to cool it down or diagnostics that work and are safe?

    Watch dies at 75%

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 04:56 PM PDT

    My series 3 Apple Watch shuts off at 75%. Every day. Plug it back in, it boots up and starts charging from 75%. Unplug, it does at 75% remaining charge and refuses to turn back on.

    I hit the Apple store today and they did all their little tests, which my watch passed, and asked what I had already done to try and fix it. I asked if the beta on my phone could cause this, but the Genius told me she was on the beta and it didn't affect her watch at all, though it was a generation newer than mine.

    This malfunction persists even after wiping and starting over. What is wrong with my watch?

    halp

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 04:15 PM PDT

    So I've had a, macbook pro 13 inch 2019 two thunderbolt 3 ports, for about a week now, and I love it its so convenient for school use in high school. However, I just started looking at the laptop requirements/recommendations for college. I am a tech NOOOB so I don't really understand processor memory storage whatever. But I read that I don't have the storage required for one of the colleges im applying to. I was wondering if I can modify my mac to meet requirements or if I have the money, get recommendations. Sorry if this is what y'all consider a easy answer found on the first page of google.

    iPhone 7 unresponsive to touch after recharge?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 03:57 PM PDT

    iPhone 7 iOS 13.1 beta

    I was using my phone, it died, and then as soon as it recharged, it would not register any touches on the screen to enter a passcode- all of the buttons seemed to work though. What I then tried was doing a power button + volume down button hold to restart the phone. For some reason, the first time I did it did nothing to solve the problem, but after the second restart it seemed to fix itself. The peculiar thing was that later in the day the exact same thing happened (even the two restart attempts). Also, before the first time, my phone occasionally ignored touch right after turning on but this was fixed by just turning off and on again. Any ideas to what could be causing this? I hope this makes sense lol.

    Would the Apple Store allow me to have the entire balance on one gift card if I trade in an iPhone for one but also want to load a gift card with money at the same time? Or would they make me get two separate cards?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2019 03:48 PM PDT

    It's an iPhone 7 I would trade in at the apple store. And I am looking at loading a gift card at the same time so would they allow for the balance of the trade in phone and the extra money I want to put in to be on the same card they give me or would they have me get two gift cards?
