  • iOS 17 is probably hitting your battery hard today -- but that's expected

    aegeanaegean

    I did a fresh install of iOS17 on my 14 Pro Max to ensure it's a clean install, no footprints of iOS 16. But here's the issue:

    I can't add more than one iCloud email account. The main Apple ID of iCloud.com account gets added while restoring, and then when you try to add another iCloud.com email address account, I just keep seeing rounded circle of apps icons animation (which is new), nothing moves forward after that for hours.

    I downgraded back to 16 as I can't function without multiple iOS email accounts. And now I am back to business. Looks like iOS17 is not in my luck.

    Anyone else try to add more than one iCloud.com email accounts and let me know if you can.

    Thanks,

    Rae

  • Apple Watch Series 3 watchOS 7.0.3 update fixes reboot issue

    aegeanaegean
    I updated my AW S3 Hermes to 7.0.2 yesterday without any noticeable issues so far. Didn't know 7.0.3 just came out. Did not experience any startup issues as well.

    But comparing today's watchOS version 7.0.2 installed on my watch with the one that was factory installed about 3 years ago, It definitely behaves  slow compared to the factory OS when it was released. Obviously it all started out slowly that anyone will even notice. My wife is running factory OS 5.0.1 on her S3 base model, it swipes through way faster than mine.  

    I also sometimes wonder why mine takes so long (up to 2 minutes) to measure my heart rate at the start of my workout session. It started out some time during watchOS 6 update.

  • Apple releases iOS 13.7, iPadOS 13.7 with Exposure Notification update

    And they still didn't fix the home sharing. What a waste of time and can't even go back to 13.5. Left me no choice but to either keep suffering or become their beta tester for 14. But again, their actual releases are no different than their beta releases, so I might just jump on to the beta ship for now.

  • Smart TV adoption outpacing streaming devices like Apple TV, Roku

    aegeanaegean
    Sorry, not interested in mostly Android based so called smart TV. Looking forward to the next gen of Apple TV. Hurry up, Apple, I can't wait any longer! No doubt Apple TV needs a lot of improvements. One of them is to fix their audio output . If they had to remove optical out, the should have fixed their wireless/bluetooth audio output first,

    I also have some Apple branded black microfiber wipers that came with an Apple device I purchased years ago, but I don’t recall which Apple devices these came with.


    It came with my maxed out $4,000+ 2007 17-inch MacBook Pro :) Gone are those days. No cloth came with my iMac Pro. But now at least you can buy Apple Pro Display XDR to get a decent cleaning cloth from Apple. ;-)

    BTW I have been using quality microfibre cloths with distilled water to clean everything (iPhones, Apple Watch, MacBooks, iMacs, all my electronics hi-fi gear, records, car, etc...). Anything leather, I clean it up with Meguiars, Autoglym or leather honey leather cleaners.  My Apple Watch is Hermes, so I use Autoglym metal polish, every once in a while to remove scratches, etc.
