iOS and iPadOS

Good evening all. Over the last day or so I have been trying to assist a friend to get iMessage working via her Apple Id. Well over 24 hours has passed and, as Apple stated on their support pages, she can now receive iMessages from her Apple Id! Yes! Thank you all for trying to assist in this matter. We're so glad that it's now working. So there you have it. If you have an iPhone and you wish to activate iMessage using your Apple Id, please give it 24 hours or so before trying it. Before then people will try to send you an mms, which may incur charges. Kind regards Chris.

If anyone is trying to add an RSS feed to their News app, and it's not loading, it's due to the News app's integration with Safari. I have been in contact with Apple support, and they gave me the steps.

First, go to Settings.

From there, select Safari.

In the Safari settings, go to something like Clear History.

Double tapp that, and you'll be asked if you want to do that. Double tap on Yes, and all your old history is wiped out, both on your phone and on iCloud.

I hope this helps someone. Thanks.

I have been having this problem since a couple of days now,where if I double tap on the update tab it just shows a heading named updates,and that's it. I have restarted the phone,waited a few minutes,connected it to my wifi just in case my 3g was acting up,no go. I have even turned off vo and had a friend tap the updates tab, they said that it loaded for a while then nothing. just the heading and nothing in the updates. The update tab does show I have 8 updates available,though. Anyone else experienceing this problem?

Hi everyone, Despite the accessibility issues described on the Gmail entry in the App Directory of this site, I use the Gmail app to receive instant push mail notifications on my iPhone and iPad. An update to the Gmail app became available today, version 2.0.1 and it appears that several accessibility problems have been addressed. Although the issues with the Menu button and the menu bar on the left are still there, all buttons now appear to be correctly labeled and composing new mails seems to function correctly now!

Morning all, I posted the below as a follow-up comment to a forum post. This is really cool news, so I'm reposting it here for those who may not have been following the Apple TV thread: Serotek has recently released an update to their IBlink Radio app, which now allows their customers to access Samnet content from their I-Devices. I have used this feature quite a bit while at home and on the go, to listen to audio-described movies and TV shows. It's awesome!

Hi all. For once, I'm not asking something. I just thought I'd let you know, if you weren't aware. In the newest Facebook, released I think two days ago, you can once again, poke, people. Now I don't know how to start the poking war, but I obviously can respond accordingly. Ah, brings me back to the old aim warning wars. My guy used to out of nowhere start doing it to be a bonehead. :) Anyway thought some of you might be interested.

Hi folks!!

I just figured I'd drop a note that Messenger has fixed the typing issue!! Finally!! If you get the latest update, it will fix the issue! At least it did for me!!
Just figured I'd drop every one a line and update you all on this, since this was quite a pain in the rear end!!

Updated Omron connect app not allowing me to login unable to pick country anyone else having this issue or can you offer me some kind of guidance on how to get through this using Apple 2020 SE updated to 14.6

Well, after updating to iOS 13.1 same problems for me. VoiceOver will not go to Bluetooth speaker, and even more annoying, irratic volume on voiceover in phone speaker when connected to bluetooth. Very soft to very very loud. Also, media destination although highlighted in VoiceOver settings/rotor is not showing up. Well, at least it's no worse than before but I won't update my IPad until these issues are resolved. Tried EMailing accessibility at Apple, no response, so don't know if the EMail went in the computer's circular trash bin or not.

Update 09/17/2024

Remember when it used to take 10-15 seconds to get image descriptions back? After this update, it should only take from 3 to 5 seconds. Additionally, now you should easily be able to send 15-20 images through Describe Photos with no issues. I haven't yet updated the messaging when sharing large amounts of photos though, just because I don't have enough data on what the limits will be. Also, you should no longer see the "image too large" or the "image not compatible" errors. This typically happened when sharing live photos. Finally, prices are even lower now.

This is a very long battle trying to solve an issue with an automation I created in the Shortcuts app. I have been facing this issue on my old phone SE2 and now it's the same on my 12. I am running IOS 16.6 with the latest security patches/ updates.

Hi everyone. I've noticed since updating to the latest IOS, when downloading updates of apps I can only update one at a time. I can't simultaneously download a few updates, despite using the update all function. Is this a bug or do I have to change a setting?

Curiously, what am I doing wrong here? I put a friend's name and number in my phone, but now i'm getting a message saying that a new name and photo is available. No problem as I couldn't spell her name to save my life. I swiped up to update, double tapped. Nothing seemed to change. I've left a message open for days as we're discussing things. do i need to end it, start a new one? Do I need to restart the phone? Thx

Hi all,

After a year of absence on the I O s plathform I god hold of a second hand I-phone 5S.
I was trying to purchase a app which I did not own before, so I went to the apstore, and started to try to update my credit card information.
Everything was fine until I had to enter the expiration date in the appstore.

Is there an accessible ap that would allow me to update Facebook and Twitter at the same time? Just curious.

Friends,
I want to understand the difference between updating iOS through OTA VS through ITunes.
I see that the update size on ITunes for iOS 8.3 is more than 1 GB as oppose to about 280 MB through OTA. Is there any difference between the end result of downloading through Itunes ? I understand that ITunes downloads the whole build, but does it make any difference? Please share wich way would be a better option to go with for updating iOS.

Anybody with an iPad Mini 4 updated to IOS 11 and the updates beyond? I'm asking because I can't update mine. I do all the steps and then I'm stuck where it says "requesting update" and nothing happens. Updates don't usually take up so much time. Do these newer updates take time? I've been wating for an hour now for it to start the update. Thanks for any help.
