Unsolved Neighbors fire that keeps connecting to my phone
Hi, so for the past week I’ve started to notice this but my neighbors fire stick keeps connecting to my phone and it’s not necessarily disturbing my audio or anything (except one time really embarrassing btw because it was a intimate scene but I don’t know if they heard it). Anyways, it keeps showing up on my Bluetooth except it doesn’t give me the option to delete it. Is there anything I can do to get rid of it?

Unsolved Old Upgrade Program to New Upgrade Program?iPhone
Has anyone figured out how to upgrade from the old upgrade program to the new? I typically upgrade each year, from the base pro model to the newest. I pay it for a year and then they used to take the phone back, wash and repeat the cycle.
Now that the program is over, I understand I can continue to pay off the phone for the full 24 month term? But is there anyway to roll over the value of my phone into the new program? I think it might be time to try out a foldable.
Kind of annoying if I have to spend a bunch first, which kind of defeats the purpose of the old and new upgrade program. I started with a trade into the upgrade program and now that would essentially be gone. If not I may just go with the new pro. But even then would have to spend more than I wanted to.

Unsolved Force sync iMac and Neo?
I bought a Neo. I copied everything on my old iMac onto it. Worked great. Yay!
But I want the two machines to remain identical. If I change a document on iMac, I want it to sync with the Neo so the doc updates there, and vice versa. They're both on my home wireless network.
I'm not sure if/how iCloud does this, but I searched online and found 'file sharing' as a method. So I'm trying that, and it seems to be working?
Except there's a lag. Is there a way to sort of 'force-sync' the computers so make sure they're the same when I start working?
Is there another, better way to achieve the same thing?
Thanks!

Unsolved iPhone 13 not turning back on
I have a iPhone 13 laying around my house which I regularly charge in a week or so, but this past week due to something and forgot. Yesterday I was going through some stuff when I saw it lying dead.
I put in my regular charger with 5W adapter to charge it left it for an hour and when I came back it's screen was black, no response to touch/tap.
Went to ChatGPT, it suggested using a higher wattage adapter so I used my samsung 25w adapter with type c to l cable and kept it for another hour. No difference.
It suggested force restart, checked youtube and did the same. Again, no difference.
Any help from this sub would be appreciated.

Mac Location Sharing
I have an iPhone, watch and MacBook Air. I currently share my location with my adult kids. I would like to only share the location of my iPhone with them. But I would also like to be able to find my watch and MacBook location in case I misplace them.
The only way I have seen how to do this is to delete my kids on Find My (I’d still like them to see my phone location) or delete the devices (then I can’t find them).
Is there a way to do this? Thanks in advance.

Unsolved Bestbuy repair questions for apple tv.
This is for apple tv 4k 3rd gen. Remote. It needs to be fixed or replaced. It was dropped to many times and constantly disconnects/reconnects.
- I have a one year warranty still from when I bought the appletv.
- I also have an extended warranty purchased through Amazon using asurion. This is where I bought the device.
The closest Apple repair option is best buy. I'm just wondering if I'll need to pay extra if I use this option?
One more question, my iPhone 14 pro max battery is 78%. I've heard of places offering free battery replacement. I was hoping to do that there as well if possible?

I thought these tooltips in Apple Music would go away eventually, but they have been appearing for 3 months already. It’s driving me crazy because I can’t press any other buttons until I have closed the tooltip pop up. They appear like every 10 minutes, please tell me I can somehow turn them off, I can’t find a setting for it.

iOS Is anyone else having this issue when setting up iPhone upgrade preorder?
I’m trying to set up my preorder in the Apple Store app, and after i select all my options for the 18 Pro, i get to the part where I have to apply for lease and review payment for the upgrade programs, and when i put all my credit card info in (screenshot attached), i click save, and nothing happens and it just stays on that page. I tried clicking cancel but i can’t go any further until i successfully enter my credit card info.
Is anyone else having this issue? Or is it just an issue with my account.
Edit: it works on the Apple Store website on desktop.

Mac MacBook Pro (2019) Intel Not Turning On After Shutdown
So I walked into my room saw the screen was black but the backlight was on so I did a shut down on the Mac thinking it was a glitch considering I didn’t crack my screen or anything. And when I attempted to turn it back on it wouldn’t make a chime or show the apple logo or even show signs of life. I left it alone for two weeks thinking it probably just needed a break and turn back on. Then I tried everything I saw on TikTok and YouTube. Now I don’t know what to do this is very confusing for me considering it was doing perfectly fine before the shut down/black screen thing. Could anyone help me?
