There was a post about something about, what I assume was, my MBP. I am not sure if any of you here knew about my MBP issues I have had. I am not entirely sure they're fixed. I've been running CleanMyMac3 everyday since I got my MBP working again. (Space is cleaned up every time I run it.) I am not even sure how I got it to work. Ironically, when I plugged in my old iPhone into the charging port on my current MBP, it died (my current MBP, which I am using to type this right now)and wouldn't charge. It hasn't been a month since I have it back up. I don't want to take my chances of turning my MBP and iPhone into bricks.

Listen to the advice in the other thread for your MacBook Pro. You need a new hard drive, and someone can replace it professionally with a SSD for a small fee. It's worth it and if you do it soon you'll save your data.

As for this thread, the issue is only with the 9.7" iPad Pro, and a small number of them at that. Nothing to worry about, so don't buy in to click bait.

I just updated the iOS. It went without a problem.

I have not read your other thread, but I will tell you right now, get rid of CleanMyMac. It is notorious for over-cleaning and causing system issues. The space that it gets back every single time you run it is just system and app caches. Every time you wipe system caches, your computer will immediately recreate them. As others have said, there is always the risk of something going wrong with updates, but thats how it has always been, even before OTA updates. Just update your devices and use them normally. No sense in being paranoid that something might go wrong. Typically things do go wrong when you fear they will.
