    Original Owner of Lost mode iPhone

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 08:18 PM PDT

    Hi guys, I know this is a controversial topic, but I really need some help.

    So probably about 3 years ago, I unknowingly misplaced my iPhone at a friends house. When I lost the device, I had placed it in lost mode but never really had any hope of finding it again (iPhone 7 plus if that makes a difference). Just recently thought, my friend found my phone wedged between his couch and some shelves. Unfortunately however, the phone is still in lost mode and I can't seem to recover it.

    The Apple ID associated with the phone was one that I had created ages ago, and like most young people learned to do, it consisted of a random mix of words and numbers so as to "protect my identity on the web". Of course, I wrote the ID/email and password on a sticky note but I can't seem to find it anymore. And dumb as I am, I never thought I'd need to remember it.

    I called support about 2 weeks ago and after a couple hours of attempted Apple ID recover, she told me that as a last resort, I could submit proof of purchase to the Apple Security Team, and they'd be able to unlock it for me. So that's what I did, but I got an email back from them saying that they won't be able to do anything because the phone is in lost mode. (The tech I called today apparently said that their engineers can't unlink the ID in lost mode, as doing so would somehow reapply lost mode to the device).

    She gave me a couple options: try and recover the account, but she said that I'd have to do more digging on my side, which I have already done or, she said that I could take it into an Apple store (with ID and POP) and apparently their managers have some sort of machine that might be able to remove the lock for me?

    If any one (Apple store employees, managers, anyone really) has ever been in a similar situation, or has ever dealt with this situation, and can advise me as to what I should/can do I'd be forever grateful.

    Thanks a ton :)

    TLDR: Yes I am the original owner of an iPhone in lost mode, Yes I've forgotten the Apple ID/email associated with the phone, Yes I have a scanned copy of the original proof of purchase, and yes, I would like to get this lock removed if at all possible.

    Anyone else get this strangely important looping Security folder relocated into the Desktop? There’s no files in it, just more folders.

    How do you attach images to an email message as files instead of having them appear inbedded/inline?

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 11:37 AM PDT

    I have been having issues with a number of iphones where images are being embedded in the email instead of as a file attachment. This is causing issues when they go to a computer to download the pictures they have to save individually instead of as a bulk attachment download.

    stuck in Mac OS Catalina bootloop due to not having enough hard disk space

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 02:12 PM PDT

    I thought I had enough space (or it would tell me if I didn't have enough space before it started and not allow me to install if I didn't have enough). But here I am, stuck in a boot loop where it just tells me "macOS could not be installed on your computer" "There is not enough free space on Macintosh HD to install. Quit the install to restart your computer and try again."

    When I click the restart button it brings me back to this screen again.

    Macbook Pro is infected but can't find the adware file to remove it

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 07:25 PM PDT

    I don't know how, but i managed to get infected by some sort of web redirection adware called lauberiyetechnology, it shows me a lot of url ads when i'm browsing, and it's just so damn annoying, it takes like half of the page, sometimes i click it by accident, i don't think this is really dangerous but yeah i searched for a few hours and i couldn't found a app which could delete this, i've tried combo cleaner, malware bytes and a random antivirus on the app store.

    If anybody has any solution i would be really grateful.

    PS: I forgot to mention that only Google Chrome which is the browser i use is affected by this adware.

    Can I use Apple Cash without linking a bank account?

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 07:18 PM PDT

    My Mac always gets stuck at this point while installing Catalina. The ETA just goes higher and higher. I installed the App Store copy, as the System Preferences one didn’t work (maybe because I’m on the Catalina beta, but I un-enrolled). Help?

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 05:42 PM PDT

    It's not happening 100% of the time, but when I go to send a message using the handwriting pad (I don't know the name of it lol) my watch will sometimes crash and go to the Apple logo. Anyone else seeing this issue?

    Can’t connect to external monitor after upgrading to Catalina

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 09:26 PM PDT

    So I just installed the latest update and was using my monitor fine before it as I always have, once the updated installer I could no longer connect to the monitor.

    The monitor says that something is connected to HDMI, so it reads the cable but yet my MacBook Pro 2017 doesn't recognize the monitor.

    Any tips? The monitor is CRUCIAL to my everyday work.

    Thank you in advance!

    Adblocker doesn’t work on the IPhone?

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 09:25 PM PDT

    I tried to google a solution but I couldn't find anything useful related to iphone. I've been using an adblocker with my iPad with no problem tho I recently tried to use the same thing on my iphone and it doesn't work (from setting> safari> content blocker> I turn it on and wait 10-20s). It's really important for me to use one as some websites have porn/fake medicine ads which are annoying. If you have any suggestions I would really appreciate it :)

    32Bit possible with Catalina?

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 01:49 PM PDT

    Does this mean that Catalina CAN'T start 32Bit programs or WILL NOT start them? If it's the latter then there should be a way to make it possible with a hack, shouldn't it?

    Secondary screen colors are wrong. How to fix?

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 09:08 PM PDT

    Here it is. The second screen is the first image and the normal screen is the second.

    https://imgur.com/a/2ycxlan

    It looks worse in person. You can see that the finder top bar is miscolored when dragged back to the primary screen.

    What I've tried:

    Change the wires. -> It's not the cable.

    Try another computer. The colors display correctly. -> It's not the screen.

    Play around with display color settings options but something will always be off about the colors.

    I would really appreciate it if anyone has a solution. Thanks in advance.

    I can't software update my iPhone

    Posted: 07 Oct 2019 01:30 PM PDT

    A new software update for iPhone has just come up, and the update should fix a bug with iPhone X that disables touch screen functions. I therefor cannot use my phone, nor update it to actually fix the phone. I do not have update automatically turned on. How can I force software update my phone? I have a MacBook, but in order to connect the two devices I need to unlock my phone, which I cannot because I need to swipe up. I have tried draining the battery on my phone and rebooting it, but it doesn't work. It worked periodically when it first started happening (2 days ago) but now touch just completely disabled.
