Hey guys,

After 27.1 my phone has not been able to send messages to android users through my iPad or MacBook. I need help if you guys have anything to offer in terms of advice.

What I have tried:

- looking at “send and receive” (everything is signed in)
- toggling off messages and back on again on my iPad.

note: \I have also turned both devices on and off.*
\My phone works perfectly fine, it’s just the connection ONLY FOR ANDROIDS is not working in terms of sending messages.*

I'm sorry for this stupid question but I have OCD. What's this little dot thing on the edge of the iPhone 17 display that just doesn't seem to go away.

My Apple Account has been permanently locked, and Apple won’t let me recover it. I keep getting the message “This Apple Account is locked and cannot be used.”
I can’t sign out of the account on my iPhone because it requires the password, which Apple won’t accept. I also can’t create a new Apple Account because I get the error “Your account cannot be created at this time.”
I’ve already tried the usual recovery methods, and service centers in my country haven’t been able to help me.
Has anyone actually found a solution to this? Is there any legitimate way to remove the locked account from my iPhone and use a new one without losing my data?
I’m looking for solutions from people who have experienced this exact situation, not just the usual advice to reset my password or contact Apple Support.

UPS lost my duo order on last Friday, launch date, and my replacement from Apple is at the back of the line and is set to arrive end of January 2027.

cool.

I bought a cheap charger ( cable and block) off of Amazon that’s not mfi certified. The charger seems to work fine for the most part but lately I’ve been noticing slight lags in some apps. But the weirdest part is when I use my regular apple charger now my phones charge doesn’t last that long, while it lasts normally when I use the cheap charger. This wasn’t an issue before I started using the cheap charger. What can explain this weird pattern? If there’s something wrong with the cheap charger why does it make the phones charge last normally? How is it worsening the original apple charger’s performance?

Buying my first phone but the sim ill be using is just a family spare (for a few days till i get my own.) but I wish to create my own Apple account to be able to download apps. Is it fine if I use my primary email to create it and use my parent’s number as a trusted number to receive code while using the temporary sim to text until I get my own sim? and then put my number as trusted and primary number?

i dont even know how it crack i dont recall dropping it. how much do you think the repair cost?

I don’t see how it’s sensible to hide an app that a user is specifically searching for by its exact name. I’ve had so many people message me and tell me they couldn’t find my app, because they didn’t realize they had to click the tiny “did you mean Joystickd?” Correction at the top of the page. This is severely impacting my app’s discoverability, and I feel like I’ve already lost out on so many possible users. Doesn’t help that Apple takes weeks to respond

Basically I want the Apple TV App to stop downloading so many shows that I am not currently watching.

It downloaded almost 20gb separated over four shows that I don’t currently watch, I just added it to my watchlist because I want to watch it later.

I think it’s because they are in my “Continue watching” list, but I have never watched them, only their trailer in their title card which somehow counts.

My problem is, that I don’t want to disable the automatic download because for shows that I am actually watching that is very useful. But is there a way to get rid off the other shows from my “Continue Watching” list, so they don’t automatically get downloaded?

I typed the passcode wrong in hopes of getting the the Reset End-to-end encrypted Data prompt but it prompted me with this

I have removed my old devices from Find My yet they still ask for the passcode for my old devices which I have forgotten

So i used to have an old ipod touch 4th gen. I haven't used apple in years. And when i tried to log into my old icloud account. I was locked out, even when i had the password. Or at least an old one. Back when icloud accounts had an @me on the email. I cant log into the icloud to retrieve the reset email when im locked out. I dont remember what i put for the birthday.

I have four group chats on my iPhone showing a blue progress bar when I send a message and never go through to finish using my iPhone 18 pro on 27.2 I thought it maybe iMessage issues but the text don’t go through as RCS any ideas

Hello,

I have a MacBook Air M1 and for the past few months the sound has been terrible. I didn't care much as I don't really listen to anything on it but tonight I tried listening to an album and it was just awful.

The sound is all distorted and muddy especially when there is bass. It's almost like the volume was way way up past it's power limit. It isn't. I am listening at normal level.

I remember when I got it I was really impressed with the speakers when they sometimes had that eerie 3D jumping at you quality that was impressive. They were never loud or impactful but always nice.

My point is something is obviously wrong here but I don't know what.

Did that happened to anyone else here?

Any idea what's going on and what could I do? Could they be just broke?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

How to make this go away help (the little line is a reflection)

My phone keeps sending messages when I am not touching or interacting with my phone. The messages say sent by Siri but I’m literally not even touching my phone. How does this happen. My automatically send messages toggle is off so it can’t be that. Does anyone know how to fix this. It’s sent the same message to 3 people now🥀

whats the walk around to transfer to new phone the esim while esim transfer blocked due to FaceID disabled & Stolen Protection locked with it …. thanks

Why is it temporary? For like 10 hours? Ever since my first iPhone, syncing photos to iCloud takes FOREVER. To Google Drive or Photos---instant. To iCloud? Ages.

For two weeks now my imessage bubbles have turned green and i cannot reply to messages directly in group chats or I dont receive messages from my other contacts. Ive tried doing the reset network settings, turning the imessage button and off and making sure to press my number, airplane mode and ensure the right connection. None of my contacts i message are android users. Whenever i try to fix it, it can only work temporarily then go back shortly after.

If someone has blocked you, when you send them an iMessage, will it still show as 'delivered,' as any other iMessage would? or if you are blocked, will it just not show as delivered?

Hello friends. So I have a new iPhone 18 Pro Max, coming from a 12 Pro Max and I wanted to set up the new phone completely cleanly. That is, not setup the new one from a back but do a lot of stuff manually so that any old settings would not get transferred over. Yes, a little crazy, but it’s my choice, my time to waste.

So I realized that a few contacts were not in my iCloud account (saved in Google) and wanted to transfer them over and airdrop seems the most efficient way. However, the poster doesn’t transfer over. All other details do, but not the poster.
All info I find online is about sharing my own contact poster. Has anyone else seen this or have some ideas?

Thanks!
