    How can I restore my lost iPhone Safari Tabs in iTunes Backup?

    Hi, I wish to see if I could restore my Safari tabs and history lost owing to an iPhone crash. Sorry for a long story.

    Insanely high and random CPU usage

    I have a base model mid-2017 nTB MacBook Pro. For the most part, I'm satisfied, but there were a couple occasions when the fans kicked on really loudly because of CPU usage. The first major time it did this, I had maybe two applications running, and Safari maybe had 3-4 tabs. The second major...

    iCloud tabs on macOS

    I use the iCloud tabs feature very often on my MacBook pro. Recently I accidentally it the "x" to the left of the name of my iPhone.

    Security Update 2017-001 - Safari & Spotlight Search crashing

    Ever since I updated my MacBook, I can't open Safari without it crashing, can't even click on a link. Something's also up with Spotlight Search, it keeps appearing and disappearing and it's sort of driving me nuts. Does anyone know a fix for this yet? I hate it. Also, my battery is draining FAST.

    iPhone iOS 11.1.2 - Safari Background Audio

    Looking at my battery usage, Safari Background Audio is at the top of the list. What is this? I have Background App Refresh turned off and I haven't used Safari recently to listen to audio. Does the browser in the Facebook app have anything to do with Safari? I have read online that Facebook...
