Chicago Apple Store Issue Resolved With Software Fix

[OldSchoolMacGuy]

Seems the problem with snow on the roof of the Apple Store in Chicago wasn't an issue with design as originally reported.

They did design for Chicago winters and have heaters installed in the roof to melt snow. They just weren't functioning correctly. A software fix has corrected the issue.

Very in interesting post.

I first saw this reported on a skyscraper website with pictures and good article with first hand reports of it.

Im gonna try and find the link and put it here.

Well here is a picture of one of the cracks. In the walls.
The article I read did talk about the roof as well and how they had roped the walking area off around the building.
Who would have thought a software fix.

Hope it is Okay to post it.
Very interesting stuff.

I mean is this the year of the software fix for Apple? We have had more software fixes for iOS 11, and macOS High Sierra, and an Apple Store (haha) than I can ever remember in previous years, and I have owned every iPhone since the original. Where is Apple QC with its software?! For products and Apple Stores, haha!

Edit: I would love to read the story you read if you can find the link, and yes, it is okay to post.

Got it! Thank you very much! I will read it a little later as I am about to watch the Super Bowl Halftime Show. Also, in such a great mood because my beloved Eagles are beating the Patriots. Now we just have to know that New England always has a comeback in them, if we can limit their comeback, we will finally win a damn Super Bowl!!!!
