Hi there,
updated yesterday both my iPadPro 9,7 and my iPhone SE from 12.3.1 to 12.4
Today, I realized that this update killed ALL MY MUSIC (now ZERO Titels indicated) but added the infamous U2-"Album "Songs of Innocence" that was forced into iTunes years ago (and that I deleted at hat time instantly, also years ago). IIRC, this album was forced onto the Macs coming with a new OSX about 5 years ago...
But this is not all what happened:
the update messed around all my photos. For example, a series of about 100 photos I took many years ago in just 3 hours one evening in 2011 has now been spread all around with time stamps between 2006 and 2018!!!! Also, it seems that OI have lost a lot of photos...
Since I learned some years ago the hard way round to backup EVERYTIME before updating, I still have a backup on my MacBookPro.... BUT before using the backup to get back my order on my iPad I want to be sure that this procedure will not destroy even more...
To be sure I renamed my iPad Pro - so there should NOT be any chance that the "old" backup from the same device could be overwritten - is this correct?
I´d like to know if there is anyone who made the same or similar experiences that I did?
A quick look at my iPhone SE showed that at least not ALL Music has been deleted, but also there the update did manipulate the music: As on my iPadPro, also on the Iphone SE, there appeared the infamous Album of U2 "Songs of innocence"...
So - since the U2 album appeared on BOTH devices, this cannot be a hardware problem of my macbookPro, it MUST be a bug instead!
Who made similar experiences?
any comments?
