"Step Backwards"? Apple have been using push-plugs rather than screws to fasten the keyboards to the top of the bottom case for years. Usually I pull out the old, faulty keyboard, discard it, and replace it with a new keyboard, attached with tiny sc…

Apple limited “Find iPhone’s” real-time tracking functionality some time ago. The “refresh” icon when a device has been located seems to do nothing now. Several minutes can pass before position is updated (if at all). The only way I’ve been able to …

frantisek said: Yeah. Apple will finally have processors they designed cases for. So Mac fans will probably get what they were craving for... It's the fan in the Macs that will get what they craved for :-)

Apple’s iPhone and Watch have been using NFC to open Bank of America ATM doors for over a year. I have been able to double-tap on my watch crown (to invoke Apple Pay), hold the watch very near the ATM-hall door’s credit card dip to cycle the entry d…

Samsung makes the OLED displays for both devices (theirs and Apple's)? Surely after a year or two Samsung should be able to improve their OLED product. Sounds pretty normal, new manufacturing techniques go to the most recently designed products. …

I had to turn off the “Auto Call” slider in the iPhone X “Settings->Emergency SOS->Auto Call”. My new iPhone belt-attached caliper-style holder allowed the iPhone to slip down to the point where the emergency alarm was reliably triggered. Unfo…

I wonder if Apple could do some research on the light frequencies birds see that we don't. Given the right frequencies, flashing some low-power LEDs at various angles onto the glass might give birds enough visual warning that the glass is there and …

I'm running 10.12.6 (Sierra) but Security and Privacy says: "Unlock your Mac not supported with your Apple Watch." "Update your Mac's software to allow your Apple Watch to unlock your Mac". The watch is a non-LTE, series 3, running iOS 4.0 (also up…

How about a dock that includes TB3, Ethernet, USB3.1, DisplayPort, Audio, USB-C+power (minimum 86W), HDMI, & SDXC? Buying more popcorn in the meantime (taps foot).

It is not obvious but... The page: https://archive.org/details/mac_MacOS_7.0.1_compilation has a big button in the middle of the image at the top of the page. Click it and wait a few seconds for the emulator run in Safari. You'll probably ge…
