Some users are randomly getting locked out of their Apple ID accounts
tophatnosocks said:Didn't happen to me, yet at least? I do use a 19 character generated passphrase with 3 of each capital, numbers, & special characters. That, as good as it is, can be really problematic if this would have happened, or yet still does. I have 2auth on as well, was there any indication if this happened to those that had 2auth on? Was it only those that had 2auth off, and some password like "myAppleID789" since 2002? LOL -
YouTuber wrecks car to test iPhone 14 crash detection
humbug1873 said:Essentially useless features as in modern cars (at least in the EU) it's been a legal requirement, that they call emergency services after the crash is detected. Together with the essentially useless satellite emergency call (at least outside US), this years iPhone introduction was quite useless.

Apple, Amazon, Google, Zigbee Alliance networking protocol on track for 2021 release
22july2013 said:I don't think I trust Zigbee anymore. My 17 Hue devices, mostly bulbs, use Zigbee's protocol. Every morning all my devices work, but as they day goes on more and more are "not responding" and when I try to ask Siri to turn off all the lights, sometimes as many as 14 of 17 lights aren't responding. I'm desperate to find something that works because I love HomeKit/Siri... when it works. Any suggestions? I'm guessing it's interference from the neighbors in my building. Or it could be my Hue Bridge failing, which I've rebooted and that doesn't change anything. -
Here's every Apple HomeKit product announced at CES 2017 coming later this year
Over the past few months have started installing quite a few HomeKit devices: 20 Philips Hue lights, iHome & iDevices items also. Set-up was easy, one minor problem setting up a single device (and that one was my mistake, iPhone accidentally connected to wrong WiFi during set-up process). Apple TV4 easily took HomeKit controller role, have a bunch of automations set up that normally work flawlessly; only thing I've noticed is that once a month (or less) it seems like my "Sunrise" automation doesn't seem to kick off. Family loves all the automation, plus controlling lights and scenes with Siri (although slowest Siri response is always my original-series Apple Watch). In 3 months only problem I've really had that took awhile to resolve was when I updated my Airport firmware; after restarting over half my Hue lights were unresponsive. Some online searching and discussion with Philips Customer Service and I resolved within a day - turns out when my Airport rebooted it changed channels that interfered with the Philips Hue ZigBee channel - so a couple ZigBee channel changes and problem was resolved. Look forward to trying out some of the new devices as they are released!
