    Apple Intelligence won’t run if 1.1.1.1 is on

    Has anyone solved this? What domains do I need to open up? None of the more nuanced AI features seem to work; reply prompts are spotty. Ask ChatGPT doesn’t work. I’d really like for be able to let 1.1.1.1 keep running and have AI working

    Resolved Is there a VPN that doesn't break iCloud Private Relay?

    Hi everyone. I've been occasionally using NordVPN and every time I do, I get an alert that says "software installed on this Mac is incompatible with iCloud Private Relay." The only solution to get iCPR to work again is a reboot. I can't remember which macOS first had iCPR, but I'm pretty sure...

    Device restrictions on supervised iPhone

    Hi everyone, Not completely sure if this is the best place to discuss this, but I have for a while used supervised iOS/iPadOS devices (I don’t have a Mac). The reason for this is so that I can enforce the settings on my ControlD DNS account. For instance, my ControlD set-up is that for 90% of...

    VPN "not configured" - but still works normally?

    Hello Maybe a dumb question but here goes… NordVPN updated its app for older OSXs a while ago. I am using Mac mini 2011 with High Sierra and Nord 7.13 version should work with it. But after the update Mac’s vpn icon on the top bar says “VPN is not configured”. The network settings just shows...

    iPhone Do I need 1Blocker if I now have NordVPN?

    So recently purchased NordVPN and prior to that I only ever used 1Blocker full version. Now NordVPN is a must for me, however, should I keep on using 1Blocker? Is it still effective and even worth it if I have NordVPN or should I delete it? or should I continue to use both?

    Alternative to VPN connection in the new settings app

    For me, the VPN menu in Ventura’s settings app didn’t work properly. WireGuard and IKEv2 connection were not always initiated when toggling the button. I’ve deleted the Ventura volume today, but I’ve saved this AppleScript I used to easily connect to VPNs. Maybe someone finds it helpful. set...

    VPN issue has persisted for years that the connection would drop when network environment changes or when CPU usage is high (when I'm updating apps). Reconnecting takes 3-4 minutes (all local VPNs that filter DNS, no traffic is routed to a remote server, so it's not an internet issue). Now...

    Hello All. I got a notification my Apple ID is being used by a new iPhone. Could turning on my VPN cause iCloud to think it's a new device? Not particularly concern, just curious.
