Good day. Friends, please help. I installed iOS 26 Betta version. During the update, there was a power surge and the Internet went out. The download was difficult but it went through. Now I can't check for updates. Write connection error and checking for updates. I can't roll back to 18.5. It gives an error through the computer. Please help. Thank you in advance.

Hi, Having a weird issue that I’m noticing on Apple TVs with some apps that are by the same company. I think it’s storing residual user data if if you delete the app and all other apps relating to this. I have even tried deleting every app and reinstalling but we found two apps to be still logged in. Seams like a sandboxing bug and I presume it’s to do with App data stored in the shared app groups. I can only reset the apple tv to remove the user data. The two apps we can see are being persistent is Binge and Kayo by streamotion. We have tried problem solving this in every way imaginable but it’s Interesting that this is allowed to happen on an Apple platform. There is no active user logged into the apple TV with an Apple ID either

My imessage has been acting up for 1 month now. It fails to activate my phone number and prefers my email. This is a beta issue Apple support has told me and it needs fixing asap.

Back in December 2024 I noticed when I go through the steps to print I would get an error to cancel or retry. We have 4 iPhones and 3 had the newest IOS and those 3 would get the same error. The phone that had old ios 17 something the print would work. Called Apple and did troubleshooting, the opened something on apples end for the developer to investigate. Within 2 weeks a new ios was available and fixed the issue on the 3 phones that could not print. I did the latest update February and March 2025 on all 4 phones thinking no way the issue will happen again and if did all 4 phone cannot print. Is there an iOS bug that is affecting printing ios 18.3.2.

I discovered an issue where older Intel Macs (like my 2017 MacBook) enrolled in the macOS Sequoia Public Beta do not receive Ventura security updates, even though Sequoia is not compatible with the hardware. My system said “macOS is up to date” while stuck on Ventura 13.7.1, but after switching to the Ventura Public Beta channel, it immediately showed a new update available. This seems like a serious flaw—Apple should warn users or fall back to compatible OS versions when an enrolled beta is unsupported. Has anyone else experienced this? Could be a widespread issue for Intel Mac users still relying on Ventura.

After updating to iPad iOS26 , the software update area shows that it cannot check for updates. Is this normal?

On my first attempt at adding iCloud to my existing app this is how far I've gotten. For reasons that I won't go into, the use case for my app does not need coordination. I have successfully made my app write a file to the Documents directory of iCloud and read back that same file without errors. In testing on a real iPhone 13 and iPhone 7 I have verified that my app can write a file to iCloud from the iPhone 7 and then read back that same file on the iPhone 13, so I know that the file truly exists in the cloud. But when I make my app on the iPhone 13 write to iCloud, my app on the iPhone 7 says the file does not exist. Exactly the same build of my app is running in both phones. This is problem #1. Problem #2 is that none of these files appear in the iCloud section of the Files app on either of these Phones, nor do they appear in the iCloud section of my Mac. All devices are signed in to my same Apple account in iCloud. Also my info.plist file in the app contains: <key>NSUbiquitousContainers</key> <dict> <dict> <key>iCloud.com.{my domain}.{my app}</key> <dict> <key>NSUbiquitousContainerIsDocumentScopePublic</key> <true/> <key>NSUbiquitousContainerSupportedFolderLevels</key> <string>Any</string> <key>NSUbiquitousContainerName</key> <string>{my app}</string> </dict> </dict> </dict> <key>UIFileSharingEnabled</key><true/> The iPhone 7 is running iOS 15.8.4 and the iPhone 13 is running iOS 18.3.2. The code that does the writing to iCloud is: NSFileManager *fman = [NSFileManager defaultManager]; NSURL *urlDrive = [fman URLForUbiquityContainerIdentifier: nil]; NSURL *urlDocs = [urlDrive URLByAppendingPathComponent:@"Documents"]; if(urlDocs.path == nil) { NSLog(@"NULL path"); return; //..big problem } if( ! [fman fileExistsAtPath: urlDocs.path] ) { //..need to create the Docs directory NSError *err00 = nil; @try { [fman createDirectoryAtURL: urlDocs withIntermediateDirectories:true attributes:nil error:&err00]; NSLog(@"created the directory"); } @catch (NSException *except) { NSLog(@"Exception creating directory %@", except); } } //..directory is now created NSLog(@"url=%@", urlDocs); NSURL *urlFile = [urlDocs URLByAppendingPathComponent:txtfname()]; NSData *fdata = [@"Hello world" dataUsingEncoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding]; NSLog(@"file url=%@", urlFile); NSLog(@"file Data=%@", fdata); NSError *errorReturn = nil; Boolean ret = [fdata writeToURL: urlFile options: NSDataWritingAtomic error: &errorReturn]; NSLog(@"returned %1d, error=%@", ret?1:0, errorReturn); And the code that does the reading is: NSFileManager *fman = [NSFileManager defaultManager]; NSURL *urlDrive = [fman URLForUbiquityContainerIdentifier: nil]; NSURL *urlDocs = [urlDrive URLByAppendingPathComponent:@"Documents"]; NSLog(@"url=%@", urlDocs); if(urlDocs.path == nil) { NSLog(@"urlDocs.path is NULL!"); return; //..big problem } if( ! [fman fileExistsAtPath: urlDocs.path] ) { //..need to create the Docs directory NSLog(@"It seems the urlDocs folder does not exist"); } NSURL *urlFile = [urlDocs URLByAppendingPathComponent:txtfname()]; if([fman fileExistsAtPath: urlFile.path]) { NSLog(@"file %@ exists", urlFile); [fman copyItemAtURL: urlFile toURL:<#(nonnull NSURL *)#> error:<#(NSError *__autoreleasing _Nullable * _Nullable)#>]; } else { NSLog(@"file %@ DOES NOT EXIST!", urlFile); }

I see games like Resident Evil and others have a partnership with Apple to help bring it to the MacOS and iOS platform and I was wondering if anyone knows how a company gets these partnerships, is it Apple who reaches out or do they have to reach out?

Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to edit the bootps.plist which is in the system / library directory. I have an M4 MacBook running OS 15.3.2 and I've held down the power button to go into recovery mode, and in terminal entered the 'csrutil disable' command and have restarted but when I go back to 'get info - Sharing & Permissions' I can't change any of the permissions. I need to be able to edit this file to create DHCP server. How can I change edit permissions on the bootps.plist?

Hello I want to ask you why special scenes feature not available for iPhone 11 in iOS 26.

my app was kicked off the App Store because it needed updating. i have now done that and it is ready for TestFlight. before I uploaded it, I had look around the App Store to see if there were any similar apps and I found one which just looks like it’s pinched the ideas about how it works-it’s uniqueness claiming to be the first of its kind and who it is aimed at Its not exactly the sameseems silly similar to mine as I was reading the text seemed similar to mine. it’s not exactly the same but the principle of it the idea of the way it works is definitely the same as mine. I couldn’t look at the code because it didn’t seem to be open source software databases. it is not free to download but I didn’t want to buy it. Is there a way of finding out more about its. Function and ti see / compare the code to see if there is infringement or a violation.

Since running 18.4 beta 3 my phone doesn’t stop charging at its pre determining % it’s set at 80% and until now has always held at that percentage but since installing beta 3 it’s gone to 100% and held at that when charging overnight anyone else experiencing this?

The Uber Driver app is able to get background location and there’s no way to turn it off from settings. Unlike other apps where there’s always an option to turn off background location from settings. Is this a bug or special treatment for big companies? this matters to me because we’re in a similar business but our app has to request background permissions, explicitly. I am attaching both of the screenshots here for you to compare and see. Please note that I verified personally that Uber Driver app is able to get background location.

So recently, last week, ive updated to the Dev Beta of ios 26. This began the very issue of my cellular data. I woke up to a warning symbol where my cellular bars should be, telling me there was something wrong with my antenna or carrier when in reality there was no problem with any of those problems and took up about 53% of my storage. This is absolutely insane and unacceptable.
