  • Apple IDs locked for unknown reasons for a number of iPhone users

    This happened to me and I discovered the issue was with app-specific passwords. In my case using app-specific passwords with Mailstrom caused the security problem, though entirely on Apple’s side of things. 
    The Mailstrom ppl worked with Apple to resolve the issue and they have. Perhaps others with suddenly locked iCloud accounts should have third parties look into it if using app-specific passwords for integration – i.e. mail, calendar or notes sync services.

  • Apple removes iCloud Activation Lock status tool from website

    This move makes sense, since you can no longer wipe an iDevice without logging out of Find My iPhone first. 
    New credo is "if it's not wiped, don't buy it".

  • Apple debuts iOS 13 with Dark Mode, enhanced speed, swipe to type

    Dark mode might be nice.  But Apple should have put every employee in the company on the now years old bug in “Family Sharing”.  

    Since there are not programmers smart enough to fix this the only remaining option seems to be the “put a room full of monkeys at keyboards and hope for the best”.

    You might have noticed I’ve lost all good humor on this GLARING Elephant in the Refrigerator sized error in their authorization system.  
    What bug would that be?
    Sounds like a very personal issue to me (or even user side obtuseness).
    Sure there used to be some hickups, but I have never heard of or experienced this “bug” you demand all time and resources thrown at.
