    HomePod HomePod mini “Setup Failed (-5303)”—What is going on?

    I was trying to set up a HomePod mini for a client (which means that I will not be able to try suggestions until my next appointment with her). Her iPhone was on iOS 16.x, still, but I don’t know, whether it has something to do with it. I factory-reset her HomePod mini and then commenced with...

    Nov 2023 update - nothing helpful!

    So I just updated the software for my Apple Watch and now the easy to use items have become less so! All my pre-set timers? Gone. Try to summon your phone… it used to take a swipe and a click, now you better allow 1-3 minutes and it’s increasingly obnoxious! What were they thinking?!

    A1407 Power supply schematic

    I've scoured all the usual sources online, and can't find a schematic for this A1407 (27" Thunderbolt display). it has the Lite-On power supply (not the Flex-whatever-it-was). Board PN is 614-0505 / PA-3251-31 There's no bulged caps, fuse is OK (pretty sure there's just the one?!), bridge is...

For example, I can say “play Let it Be by The Beatles” and nothing will happen. Previously, this would work. I can say “play songs by The Beatles” and my phone will start playing...

    iOS 15 - Another nail in the coffin

    The new OS for iPad and watch have been a disaster (for me). The amount of bugs and broken features keeps blowing my mind. The latest issue (on OS 15.0.1) makes spotlight search completely unusable. When trying to type a search, the first letters are immediately deleted ??? This happens on a...

    MP 1,1-5,1 Mac Pro 3.1 Shut Down randomly

    Hi. Not so long ago I bought a Mac Pro 3.1. Found that he sometimes refuses to start if he stood off for more than an hour. In this case, it does not reach the sound of turning on and the Mac just turns off. The time from switching on to spontaneous switching off is different, but, as a rule...
