    iPhone 7 ambient light sensor bug?

    If I set my iPhone 7 face down while unlocked and then pick it back up it is completely frozen. The home button and screen are unresponsive. It will lock if I push the lock button and then everything becomes responsive again. Has this happened to anyone else? My tested with my iPhone 5 and 6...

    Safari scrolling very rigid, not fluid like in apps

    I've started using Facebook's mobile website in Safari instead of the app. I am finding scrolling in Safari to be very rigid and not a fluid experience like scrolling in every other app on my iPhone. It's not just Facebook's site, it's everything. One flick of the thumb only advances maybe half...

    How does iPad already know Wifi login?

    Last night I was visiting a friend and took my new iPad with me. At some point I got it out to look at something and just brought up Safari and did it. After about 10 minutes I realized I my iPad was connected to the wifi already. This iPad is brand new (setup as brand new as well) and I have...

    iPhone 5 asking for Activation Lock password, will not activate without SIM installed...

    I use my old iPhone 5 as a remote in my house and for various other things so take some load off my newer iPhones. Last night I picked it up and it first asked for my PIN and then it started taking me through screens as though the software had just been updated. Then it said the iPhone was...

    Unlock iPhone 6

    Not sure where to post this so I'll just do it here. I have an iPhone 7 now and would like to unlock my iPhone 6. I have done this previously with AT&T and it worked fine (iPhone 4 and iPhone 5). But this time when I use AT&T's online unlock portal when I enter the IMEI number it says that the...

    Music App

    So I am really not digging the updated music app. They added steps to do anything it seems. I can no longer like songs from the lock screen, or even very easily. I now have to select the now playing banner, then tap the 3 dos, then like/love the song. In addition, how do I know if shuffle is...

    iPhone 6 battery meter has drastic swings

    I've noticed my iPhone 6 does not seem to be reporting the battery life correctly. Quite often I will find that the battery life has suddenly dropped by 30-50%. But when I plug it in to charge nearly instantly the meter will jump up to what I guess is the actual battery status of 70-80ish%. Just...

    There is only one thing about my MacBook Pro that I aboslutely hate with a passion.

    The "MagSafe Connector" Yes, I hate it. It's stupid. It disconnects with even the slightest movement. My cat thinks it's a toy and constantly swats at it disconnecting it. Even if it's just sitting there and I'm not using it. I'm 30 years old and in my entire life I have yet to see anyone...

    Battery meter on Macbook does not update unless I toggle percentage on/off

    So the topic says it all. The battery meter on my Macbook does not update unless I essentially force it too. I have to toggle "show percentage" for it to update at all. If I plug in the power adapter the lightning bolt does not appear. Nor does it change the power source to say "Power Adapter"...

    What is the proper way to turn off iTunes Match and go back to normal sync?

    Hey all, posting this for a coworker. She toggled iTunes Match to on on her iPhone and it seems to have wiped all her local music. It won't sync to iTunes now either. Also, she does not actually have iTunes Match. At least she says she never paid for it and no music is in her iCloud. Is it...

    Mob City

    Anyone check this out? The finale is this week. So far I'm digging it. It's very much a Frank Darabont show. It's an interesting setup. Not quite sure how it would work in future seasons with 1 hour episodes broken up.

    Boardwalk Empire

    Kind of surprised there isn't a thread for this show. The season ended a week ago. Anyone watch? This is one of my favorite shows currently. This past season was really really good IMO. It may be a little slow moving at times but I find I really enjoy the spectacle of it and the...

    Reduce motion now removes all animation transitions.

    So now reduce motion is pretty bare bones. Everything just fades in and out now. Barely any effect at all. I can't tell if it's actually any faster than with the normal animations. Ugh. I hated the parallax motion but did like the other animations. Now it feels quite lame.
