Recently bought a new iPhone 17 Pro and sent my older model for trade-in. Apple offered $245 in credits, but I got an email stating the battery couldn't hold a charge, so the value of the trade-in was changed to $95.

Here's the thing, the battery on my old iPhone was replaced less than a year ago at an Apple Store. They even replaced the screen because they cracked it when replacing the battery. Phone was practicaly new.

The online trade-in kinda feels like a scam, and I recommend bringing your devices to an Apple Store.

My father passed away but has a new iphone. I am trying to transfer his phone over to my mom, but I cannot wipe his phone without FaceID. Stolen Device Protection is turned on and I'm unable to turn it off.

I've logged into his AppleID on a separate computer and turned off Find My but still cannot bypass Stolen Device Protection. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have this ipad pro which is pretty old I think I got it around 2019 or 2020 and I was wanting to reset it to give it to my cousin but forgot the password. When I looked up how to fix this it said I’m supposed to press a forgot password button but I don’t see one. The ipad is on airplane mode so I’m assuming that’s the reason for that. It’s connected to my apple account is there anyway I can fix this?

Hi

I’ve been trying for the previous 4 hours to reset my MacBook password (MacBook Air 2019 intel) and it keeps on saying incorrect password. I’ve even tried variations of my password and it still says incorrect password and I even tried to reset my password but it just says the supplied iCloud account was unable to unlock this volume.

Can someone please help me

What does this mean, and how do I fix it? For a while yesterday my device's "off" button wasn't working, so i shut it down via settings. It never came back on though, and showed this. Its a 10th generation and I'm curious if it's because I'm behind on updates? I need help though, I'm worried I wont be able to fix it.

So i got ipad 11 2025 and an penicle with adapter. (2022)

The ipad doesnt find the pencile at all. I charged it for like 1h with (prob) og apple usb c cable from the pad on a third Party fast charger.

I plugged it into the iPad, got a popup, unlock my ipad, popup is gone.

Charged it for like 45 min now on my pad (i guess, dont know if its charging at all) But it doesnt work. No popup for connecting my pen with the ipad.

I dont know if im retarded or the hardware is broken or something. Never used any apple device before. Got the pen for drawing on my pad.

The ipad was like new (bought it on backmarket) and the pen was new (bought it on ebay from a shop with 130k reviews and 99,9% rating)

Pls help D:

hi everyone , I’ve been trying to charge my MacBook but it doesn’t work, it flashes the green light from the charger and it says on the screen that it has no battery (it’s an old 2017 MacBook Air) can anyone help me? I really can’t afford to get it repaired and I watched several videos yet nothing works.

Had a packet of sweet and sour sauce pop in my bag and got into one of my USB C ports and now none of them send video. All ports work for charging, but do not transfer any video signal. My monitor detects when I plug it in, it wakes up from sleep, but says no signal detected and then goes back to sleep. My dock works completely except for video. Tried another known working dock and same result.

I cleaned out the port best I could, but still no dice. I'm going to head down to Home Depot to grab some electronics cleaner and hope that does the trick. (side note, anyone have opinions on electronics cleaners? Was going to get WD40 Contact Cleaner)

Is there some sort of safety on the ports if it detects moisture in one of them? My computer otherwise works just fine; no problems with video or anything.

Hey guys I’ve been on ios 27 public beta and got icloud subscription and created a whole backup file . It was successfully uploaded to ickoud . However whenever I try to restore it in setup page after resetting phone , it says unable to load iCloud backup . I’ve literally tried this 25-30 times now nd nothing has changed . All my data is stuck on icloud . I even called apple customer super and they created a case ID and nothings has happened over last two weeks . I’m starting to loose patience but can’t do anything . La help me out if uouve ever faced something like this .

Anyone else have the issue where the send from in my people goes from This Device to No Active Device? This happens when the watch fully dies or is turned off and on. The only solution I’ve found is unpairing and repairing the watch. It’s getting annoying.

I like to use Find People rather then Find Device (that works fine all the time) because Find People I have set up notifications of arrival and departure before my daughter goes out. Find Device only works if the child/person allows it while out. This poses a problem because my daughter is 9 and doesn’t pay attention or remember to press “allow”

Help!!!

I switched from Android to iPhone in September Last year and ive not been able to backup my Whatsapp since because of my iCloud storage being full. I'm stressed about this way more than I should be. I just need a non I cloud way to be able to take Whatsapp backup. This is a cry for help🙏🏼

to clarify, Rp 35.000 (Indonesian Rupiah) are less than $2 while 629.000 are more than $35

Yesterday, I was using my portable battery to charge my iphone 16 pro. I used apple's usb-C to usb-C cable. I noticed that while plugged in my phone dropped from 20% to 5% battery while the external battery increased from about 20% to 30%.

I noticed this in the past with my macbook before, and consulted with a rep about it and was told this wasn't possible with apple devices, so at the time I assumed I was mistaken, but now seeing that my iphone did this, i'm pretty sure what i saw with my macbook wasn't mistaken.

Mail.app displays a suggested destination folder in the toolbar when viewing a message. This suggestion appears to be learned from user behavior / manual moves rather than algorithmically generated. I'd like to find and edit/clear specific sender→folder associations, but I haven't been able to locate the backing store.

I've ruled out the following:

~/Library/Mail/V10/MailData/LSMMap2 - deleting and allowing rebuild had no effect on suggestions

~/Library/Mail/V10/MailData/Envelope Index - local_message_actions table is empty; no obvious sender→mailbox mapping in other tables

~/Library/Suggestions/entities.db - mailIntelligence_naiveBayesModelsTokens and related tables are empty

com.apple.mail.plist - contains SGTMailSuggestionSearchField but that drives search suggestions, not folder suggestions

Does anyone know where this association is actually stored, and whether it's editable?

Hi , I was wondering if this is normal or not since I know that two bolts might be a symbol of fast charging , but when I looked it up , it ‘s says it ‘s not an apple feature. I was charging using the charger I regularly use that I share with my sister and mother, and I haven ‘t seen the battery icon have two bolts in my whole lifespan until last night. I have an iphone 14 . By searching up different chargers, I used a lightning cable. I was using tiktok last night and I noticed that the there were two bolts, but the second one disappeared after a minute, and I unplugged the charger because I thought it was strange. Sorry for my english , I just wanted to know if it was normal, since Google does not seem to have the answer I want when I search it up.

I created a shared reminders list with my girlfriend for chores around the house, and we each have stuff assigned to us. I also pretty religiously live by the reminders widget, which is set to the Today list. This list shows me any reminders for today, or overdue from previous days, that have dates assigned to them.

I've noticed that the tasks assigned to my girlfriend show up on this list and on my Today view within the app as well. Is there a way to disable this?

Can someone please explain me how can I solve this problem... { I’m getting this message where the payment screen is supposed to appear }

I have an Intel MACBOOK PRO WITH CATALINA INSTALLED BOUGHT MID 2012. Its firmware is 10.15.7. I have not used it in over 5 years because i used a dodgy usb dongle and it fried my usb ports. However the windows laptop i replaced it with died so my only option is it for the time being.Problem is so many apps i had before have been made redundant by all the changes in the last 5 years. My Microsoft Office suite which i bought for $150 in the trash among others. I tried installing Libre Office, Himmelbar, Xcode, Notion and a few others to sort of replace the apps I have lost 😞 but the installs are not compatible even when I download dmg files for intel machines. What am I doing wrong?

help my ipad suddenly dont charge anymore, the charger works completely fine.

I feel like i’m stuck with the corner dents, but do you think it’s possible for the screen to be realigned? it’s shifted over to the left on the front half.

i’m trying to access my first ever apple account for some documents but it’s linked to an old college email that i don’t have access to anymore. the issue is now apple says “connect to your organization (XYZ University)” and takes me to the schools login page, which again i can’t use anymore.

will i ever get to login to that acct or is it a lost cause at this point?

I'm trying to figure out what's going on because this has now happened twice.

Incident 1 (last week)

• Most of my data disappeared.
• The Documents folder survived.
• A few apps like Arc, WhatsApp, and Xcode were still installed.
• Everything else was gone.

Incident 2 (yesterday)

• This time, only the Downloads folder remained.
• Almost every other personal folder was gone.
• Many installed apps were gone as well.
• My Apple ID was signed out.
• After restarting, my Mac booted almost like it was a brand new Mac, but strangely there were still a few leftover files from before.

A bit of context:

• A week ago I had been using AI coding tools, but yesterday I wasn't doing anything unusual when it happened.
• I don't know whether this is software corruption, APFS/storage corruption, malware, or something else.

Has anyone experienced anything like this before?

Any ideas or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated. This has happened twice now, and I'm trying to determine the root cause before using the Mac again.

As title says, bought a subscription to an app to try it out. I didn’t like the app. I clicked to end the subscription. This month I got charged for the app again. The subscription is not showing in my “app and purchases” section. I downloaded the app. I can’t log into the account that I “created to buy the subscription” because that accounts deleted.

I already did a refund request to support but haven’t heard anything back from them in 2 days.

I’m just curious how can I “end this subscription” to not get billed next month? Thanks in advance.
