    iPhone I upgraded to iOS 13 and freaked out! <rant>

    Excuse me for a very emotional style, but I'm feel toasted and need to share with you some things killing me with Apple for a few years already, and I'm sure, you too. This is simply a last drop into a bowl. Apple discussion deleted my request regarding the problem and I'm bursting! I've been...

    Keyboard doesn’t work

    After a few seconds when I restart the computer and try to fill in the password the keyboard doesn’t working, the touchpad doesn’t work either. The computer itself starts looking for a blootooth keyboard for connecting. The only button that works is the power button, so I can only turn on and...

    How can I add Ctrl-based keyboard shortcuts for the [ and ] keys?

    I've been playing with the idea of mapping all of the keys to the right of the P in a QWERTY keyboard to some kind of modifier key, preferably Ctrl on my Mac. How can I add shortcuts such as `Ctrl-u` and `Ctrl-i` to [ and ], respectively? Looking around, I haven't found a good way to do that...

    Quality issue(s) with Smart Keyboard folio?

    Hi, for little over 4 weeks I own a IPP 12.9 and SKF. Due lockdown, I‘ve only used the SKF in house. However, there is already serious wear on the keyboard. Do other also experience this? I expect to have a faulty SKF as I also experience frequent keyboard disconnects. Will see if this can...

    The 'Magic' Keyboard for the iPad Pro 12" - Am I the only crazy one here?

    Why in Zeus's Infinite Wisdom is this Magic Keyboard worth $350? :apple:🙄🤫🤭🤔 Have we all gone mad, or am I alone on this? :rolleyes: Also, what's so 'magical' about it? I dig the fact that the cursor appears on the screen, but that's worth $350? You can't even tweak shortcut keys the way you'd...

    Macbook's butterfly keyboard issues is not about dust/debris at all!

    ~Last year, my old 2016 Macbook Pro got completely unusable because of the keyboard issue (it started after a few months and wasn't a big deal, then it got much worse over time), so I bought a brand new Macbook Air 2018 thinking a keyboard cover will save me, from the day one, I've put a...

    Magic keyboard alternative for iPad Pro 11”

    I was just wondering if anybody was aware of a keyboard case with a trackpad for the iPad Pro 11 inch? I’ve been looking around but I haven’t been able to find anything for the 11 inch iPad Pro specifically. Maybe I missed something? It would be nice save a little money, which is why I’m looking...

    What do you guys do when your ONLY Mac needs to be service?

    As the title says, what do you guys do when your only useable Mac has to be returned to Apple/Apple Authorised Reseller for repairs and battery replacement? Service time may take 2-3 weeks. If you have a Windows computer, do you use it in the meantime? Or use your iPad, or iPhone? Buy a new...

    Magic Keyboard scrolling stops working

    Will stat off by saying I love the Magic Keyboard for my 2018 11” iPad Pro and the trackpad has changed how I use the iPad in ways I never imagined, it really makes it a real contender for a laptop substitute. I have a weird issue where the two finger scrolling will randomly stop working after...

    The least Tim Cook could do is offer better trade-in for people forced to trade due to their faulty keyboard design!

    The keyboard on my 13" MBP has been replaced once and badly needs it again (and has needed it for some time but it's a pain to get it fixed). The primary reason for replacing my current MBP with a new one is purely for a functioning keyboard. My wife has endured the bad keyboard on her MBP for...

    Can anyone recommend a good full keyboard case for iPad Pro?

    Hey everyone! I've been using the Smart Keyboard Folio on my 12.9" and it's okay I guess. It works, so no issue there. The problem I've been getting into is I get used to the short key travel from my Folio (especially after heavy use during the weekend), and when I come back to my MacBook Pro...

    MacBook Air powers up and works - when lid shut, but not when open!

    So my old 11-inch old MacBook Air (from 2012) has a problem: I can't power it up at all when I open the lid: nothing on the keyboard and black screen. I have tried all the keypad recovery combinations and nothing works. It's dead. HOWEVER, the moment I shut the lid it powers up! Fan goes on and...

    I think I accidentally customized my keyboard

    Hoping I can get an answer here on how to correct an issue. I inadvertently customized my keyboard somehow for two words. Don't ask me how or when because I don't have a clue. Every single time I type 'kn' in the beginning of a word, my keyboard/system writes this: knknow Every single time I...

    Magic Keyboard in the Wild

    Fake or Real? Magic Keyboard in the Wild. I think the latter given the angles.

    Built-in keyboard and trackpad suddenly stopped working, cursor stuck in top left corner.

    I have a late 2017 13" MBP. Today the trackpad and the keyboard stopped working at the same time. The only thing that works is the power button (and the touchbar). Nothing happened prior to the incident so I don't know why the hell they stopped working all of a sudden. But I've noticed one...
