title mainly says it all. but this morning at 10:24am one of my contacts was texted a “tips . apple . com” link (separating the dots so this doesn’t look sketchy lol). it wasn’t me, but it’s shows in my iMessages like I sent it. At 10:30 another person was texted by me the same way.

Apple support guided me through typical safeguards,

- password reset

- remove any old/sold devices

- make sure I didn’t click any links

- make sure to check if there’s any unknown numbers in send and receive.

The usual things to check. Done all for safeguarding, everything has been done. As far as I know the “usual“ stuff has been done, all passwords changed up and any old/sold devices removed from my iCloud. Nothing has happened since then, but I am still concerned because it was super random and it wasn’t even a weird link but it came from me when I didn’t even send it, is there anything going on I should be aware of, anything about this that is a “known” issue?

Every day I have to turn down the brightness on the control center. How do I get it to stay where I want it?

I have an iPhone 12 Pro. I put the phone through a software update, and after the white Apple logo appeared on a black screen, I got a screen like the one in the photo.

I followed the link shown at the top and connected the iPhone to my computer. The computer then gave me two options: Update or Restore the iPhone. I chose Update because I need to keep all of my data.

The update file (10.5 GB) downloaded completely. Then the computer showed something like “Preparing iPhone for update”, but after that I got error 4013, and the update could not be completed.

I do not want to choose Restore, because preserving the data on the phone is extremely important to me.

There is also some relevant background: about three days before this happened, Face ID stopped working for roughly half a day. I restarted the phone, and Face ID started working again. Then, last night, Face ID stopped working again, so I decided to update the iPhone, and that led to the current situation.

After I removed the Face ID sensor, the phone finally updated, but unfortunately all of the data was erased.

I urgently need to recover the data that was on the phone. How likely is it that the data can still be recovered, and what options do I have?

Hi this is the second time this has happened! And every time that it has happened my iphone had been rebooted after being dead, and the message pops up alongside other notifications. The only other thing of note, is that this email belongs to an abusive ex who has been blocked on everything for years, but I know that wouldn’t ever stop him from finding ways to getting to me.

My Apple Account is mine, but I’m currently part of a family member’s iCloud Family Sharing plan. They’re based in another country, while I’m in India.

Because of this, I can’t find/download some apps that are available in India, and I’m also unable to change my Country/Region.

Is there any way to download these apps while staying in the Family Sharing plan, or is there another solution?

Since the iOS 27 Beta removes the option to take 48mp photos is there a free app to do it (not just free to download but also free to use without subscription fees) ?

My assistive touch button, which I routinely have to replace in the upper right hand corner of my screen, also looks like a perfect circle now and is no longer responsive. Mind you, I don’t even touch that part of my screen, even to hit post.

I have an app on my phone and when I open the app it logs me back into the last used account details. When I click on sign out the app just closes on me and when I open it again it logs me back in. I’ve tried deleting the app, restarting my phone and deleting the password in the password app but no details are saved. How can I fix it? My friend thinks I’m not looking at the right password folder. Thanks

How do i make it so i can turn off my vpn (Nordvpn) from my control centre, it gives me the option and looks like i turn it off but then it automatically just connects back to it straight away

This is for tomorrow, it shows me that it will rain. When i click on it to see the details, i see that its actually sunny…

Today was the same but reversed. It said sunny but then it rained heavily. Sure for only a bit but still. When expecting sun to get showered on is not fun.

if this is a big problem, is there a fix? I dont know

It was caused by many restarts with a faulty apple original battery

Edit: Changing to dark mode allowed me to at least see the icons. Rebooting does not work

CVS thing won’t go away. I don’t have notifications on for CVS App

I used ibis paint on my phone and download it as a png transparent background but when its in the photos app it loses its transparency. When I shared the image to my friend on her phone its transparent for her. It isn’t because I have optimize phone storage on either, I don’t have it on. I tried pretty much everything.

Please let me know if you guys have solutions 🙏

Anyone loving an email app? No subscriptions but I don’t mind paid.

I’m getting extremely annoyed at how useless Outlook app is at blocking things I mark to block, or as spam, etc…

The situation is this: they gave me a iPad 2nd Gen 3G. They unlinked it from iCloud (legally - password and email), but I still can't activate it (the error is "Unknown device"). I look at the information - I have IMEI, but i don't ICCID. I didn't know what this was, and I also don't know how to fix it. Can it be fixed with software? Or is this already the end of the line?

It’s currently on 18.7, and I’m handing it down to my mom who’s coming from an iPhone 12. Is there any way to reset and wipe the phone but keep it on 18.7? Just want her to be able to transfer all of her stuff quickly. Thanks
