    Unlock iPhone?

    At the beginning of the year I lost my job and had to file bankruptcy. Unfortunately AT&T was included in my list of creditors and now I'm stuck with a iPhone Xs Max that is just sitting in a box. Is there any way to unlock this phone so I can use it with another carrier? I am assuming the...

    Post picture(s) taken with your iPhone XS Max Here !

    Wow. Looking at all your great photos with this phone I'm wondering why mine are such crap. For example, this one that I took in my well lit room is so grainy and pixelated compared to all of yours.

    How to download music to iPhone without iTunes

    Are you talking about YouTube Red? I think you can only download using that app if you pay for it.

    How to download music to iPhone without iTunes

    I find songs I like and use an online YouTube converter to convert them into MP3s, then I save those into my Dropbox. In the Evermusic app you can download songs from Dropbox onto the phone itself for offline listening.

    How to download music to iPhone without iTunes

    Thanks for the reply. I just installed the Evermusic app and am trying that out. Seems pretty decent so far, but my main problem is still trying to figure out how to download songs onto the phone itself. The app synced with Google Drive and Dropbox, but I'm unsure if that will still use data or not.

    How to download music to iPhone without iTunes

    I am looking for a way to download songs to the actual phone itself without using iTunes. I have searched the web, but haven't been able to find anything useful. Tons of tips for using iTunes to do it, but I want to bypass that and actually have the songs on the phone that I can listen to...

    How to keep joy cons turned off?

    When I take the joy cons out of the unit and keep them in the storage case there’s a little green lights that keep going up and down on them. It’s like they’re searching for a connection or something. I’ve tried pushing the little button on the side to turn them off but occasionally they still...

    Annoying Pop-Up Ads while using iMore on iPhone

    I just cleared the cache on Safari and visited iMore again and there's no indication of the pop-ups from before.

    Annoying Pop-Up Ads while using iMore on iPhone

    Wasn't sure where to put this. Yesterday on my iPhone I was trying to access the forums (using Safari) and I kept getting these pop up ads (free Amazon gift card, etc.). It would completely take over the screen and I couldn't do anything but x-out of the browser. I have the latest iOS on the...

    Goodbye Android.....

    Upgraded the phone to iOS 12.0.1 and it seems a lot quicker. Some minor changes, but overall no hiccups.

    LG Soundbar Always Has to be Reconnected?

    Yes, although that list is pretty short and basically useless. Everything is hooked up correctly, soundbar recognized by ATV, blah blah. I just want to know howto keep it in the pairing list on the ATV without having to constantly reconnect it.

    LG Soundbar Always Has to be Reconnected?

    I have the standard 32GB 4th generation Apple TV. I have paired my LG soundbar to it (model LAS454B). Unfortunately whenever I turn the ATV on I have to keep going to the bluetooth menu in settings and reconnecting the soundbar. Is there a way around this so I don't always have to go to...

    Which streaming device do you primarily use for watching movies and TV shows?

    I picked up another Apple TV and got my headphones paired with it. It works great and I don’t really need to mirror anything from the iPad now. Unless I’m watching something it’s on the Internet.
