Troubling iOS 17.5 Bug Reportedly Resurfacing Old...
An anonymous reader shares a report: There are concerning reports on Reddit that Apple's latest iOS 17.5 update has introduced a bug that causes old photos that were deleted -- in some cases years ago -- to reappear in users' photo libraries. After updating their iPhone, one user said they were shocked to find old NSFW photos that they deleted in 2021 suddenly showing up in photos marked as recently uploaded to iCloud. Other users have also chimed in with similar stories. "Same here," said one Redditor. "I have four pics from 2010 that keep reappearing as the latest pics uploaded to iCloud. I have deleted them repeatedly." "Same thing happened to me," replied another user. "Six photos from different times, all I have deleted. Some I had deleted in 2023." More reports have been trickling in overnight. One said: "I had a random photo from a concert taken on my Canon camera reappear in my phone library, and it showed up as if it was added today."

This official Apple special-edition Watch band is...
Macworld
Much like Apple Watches, extra Apple Watch bands can be rather pricey, so whenever one snaps, replacing it can burn your pocket for $50. Thankfully, we found a fantastic model on clearance at Walmart that’s just $14, good for $35 off the original MSRP and a great chance to grab an official Apple Watch for less than some third-party options.
The discounted model is the 40mm/44mm Black Unity Sports Band. This special edition watch band was created to celebrate Black history and culture and is inspired by the Pan-African flag, featuring the same beautiful combination of black, red, and green. The band also has an inscription that reads “Truth. Power. Solidarity.”
These are 40mm and 44mm bands, but they will fit all larger...

We know that the new iPad Pro has Apple’s most advanced chip, a remarkable Ultra Retina XDR display, and other key improvements. The 13-inch Pro is also the thinnest Apple product ever made, and lighter than before. But beyond the physical changes of thinness and lightness, did you know that it also comes with a color-matched USB-C cable?

Best iPad for students 2024
Macworld
Preparing for student life can be exciting and stressful. To make things easier, it’s good to know that you’ve got the right tech to help you write your essays, take notes in lessons, and kick back with Netflix and games when the work is done. The iPad has evolved in recent years to something that can now act as a laptop replacement for many students, with accessories like the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil making it one of the most versatile devices you can buy.
Choosing the best iPad can be tricky, as Apple currently offers a wide range of models with different prices and features, including the M4 iPad Pro and M2 iPad Air models updated in May 2024.

It’s a niche issue that some users may not ever notice, but with the OLED screen central to marketing efforts for a device that starts at $1,299/£1,299, any “blemish in the beauty,” as iMore puts it, is troubling.

M3/M4 Ultra Mac Pro: Everything you need to know

Apple last updated the Mac Pro in 2023 when it was the last Mac to be outfitted with an M-series chip–three years after Apple started to use its own silicon in Macs. The Mac Pro may be on a longer update cycle than the other Macs because it’s an expensive machine with features that address the needs of a niche audience.
But if you’re part of that audience, you’ll want to know when the next model will arrive, so we’ll be tracking the news and rumors about the Mac Pro. This article includes information about the potential updates to the Mac Pro, as well as offers perspective on what those rumored updates mean to Apple’s Mac lineup.

The consensus about the new iPad Pro is in: the hardware is more powerful and impressive than ever, but it’s still largely hampered by software that just hasn’t managed to keep up.
Such has been the story of the iPad Pro almost since its inception almost nine years ago, and despite moves that would seem to augur good things for the platform—like forking iPadOS off from iOS—Apple hasn’t exactly done a bang-up job of assuaging users about its commitment to making the tablet a full-fledged citizen of its lineup.
But zooming out there’s a larger question at play here: what are the long-term prospects of the iPad? Once heralded the ...

One of our favorite new features of the iPhone 15 is the ability to limit charging to just 80 percent. For years now, some Apple products have had an optimized battery charging feature that takes into account your typical daily charging and usage routine and will only charge your iPhone or Mac up to 80% when it has determined you’re unlikely to need more.
But the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro introduce a third option: force charging to stop at 80 percent. It’s a great option for those concerned about the long-term health of their iPhone batteries, as keeping a battery fully charged causes it to degrade faster, and limiting to 80 percent will help the battery retain its full capacity for a...

Every time a new iPad Pro is released, the reviews repeat the same narrative: powerful hardware, hamstrung software. The M4 reviews have been no exception.
This gap isn’t because of a lack of effort on Apple’s part. The company has continually developed and pushed iPadOS forward in the nine years since the iPad Pro debuted. But the general consensus among reviewers is that there’s still a lot of work to do.
But what, exactly, would that work look like? How might the iPad’s software finally make good on the potential of its hardware?

The location of the special characters may depend on where you are based in the world: keyboard layout differs by country, with certain characters getting more prominence on the keyboards of the people who use them more.

Design
Writing at The Verge, David Pierce calls the M4 iPad Pro “a genuine achievement in tablet design” in the very first sentence. He remarks how the device “feels like a piece of glass in your hand” and it’s so thin that “the USB-C plug I use to charge the 13-inch Pro I’ve been testing is already thicker than the iPad itself.”

New iPad Pro display struggles to display some...
The OLED screen is the headline feature of the shiny new iPad Pro, but it seems that a little more software tweaking may be needed. Testing by one reviewer found that the device struggles to display certain shades of blue.
Specifically, HDR highlights are blown out, appearing almost white, in a problem the report says is replicable on the 13-inch iPad Pro …

The best USB-C hubs for iPad
Macworld
Apple’s iPads now all use the universal USB-C connector port rather than Apple’s old Lightning connector. The M1/M2/M4 iPad Pro models use the even more capable but identical-looking (and compatible to USB-C) Thunderbolt connection (USB4).
What many people don’t realise is that the USB-C port is good for more than charging or plugging in wired earbuds. Apple’s tablets can also be used with other peripherals that transform it into an even more versatile computer. As such, iPad owners have a wide range of USB-C accessories available to them unless their older iPad still uses the Lightning connector.
Some of the USB-C hubs connect directly into the iPad. Others require a cable connection; some come with both, which helps when the iPad is in a protective case. We have also...

When did being able to read the room become a lost art?
The arc of backlash to Apple’s “Crush” ad was wild to observe. The Macalope’s first reaction to it was thinking it missed the mark as a metaphor. Destroying the creative arts to make an iPad was not the right way to get across the creative things you can do with an iPad, and many other, better metaphors could have been used. But he certainly didn’t think it’d be met with the staunch opposition it has, an opposition that ultimately led to the company apologizing and canceling plans to show the ad on TV.
Sure, Apple’s always had its detractors, a swath of people who are always happy to tell the company that whatever it’s doing, it’s doing it wrong. But this time the calls were coming from inside the house. Apple “crushed” creativity and one of...
