So I have some new shiny Lifx Z led Strip lights (which were an absolute nightmare to join by the way). They appear for me as the main Home user but do not appear for anyone else in the family. Its odd, across all devices where I am signed in, they appear. But for anyone else they don't. This...

Hello experts, I was playing around in the Terminal yesterday learning some basic navigation commands from some video tutorials. I was able to display all the Folders and Files in the Root of my computer. I was also able to copy that info to a text file. Looking at it today, I think there are...

Hi, Does anybody else have this issue? I'm currently using iOS 14.3 RC2 in an iPhone 12 Pro but I'm pretty sure it was already happening with any of the 14.x versions: Randomly, and once in a while (so, not every day or so) the Home buttons in the control center become unresponsive. When I...

Which have you found yourself using more so far? I can't really find much of a use for hiding home screens, when you can just move an app entirely being "library view only." Initially, I planned to keep everything on home screens - but hidden - for the sake of being able to quickly take stock of...

Hi guys Just wondered if anyone else has their HomePod on a separate network? I have mine on my IoT network at home along with all my HomeKit gear. My phone however is on my private home network and I can control all the HomeKit devices just fine. Automations also work fine as well as Air play...

Anyone else have this issue? I have two Apple ID accounts: one for iCloud and one for the App Store. Not sure if this is causing the issue.

Hi, everyone. Every day, I ask my HomePod to play a radio station. Usually with zero issues. On occasion, it starts playing but turns on the AppleTV and therefore the TV as well. The HomePod isn’t set to airplay to the TV/ATV and the Home app shows both ATV and the HomePod as ‘playing’ when...

Hi guys, since I'm currently working from home and do not have a lot of space to put another display on my desk, I'm wondering if there is a way to use my late 2014 iMac (first 5K-version) as an external monitor for my windows laptop from work. I know that Apple discontinued the general...

Recently moved into a new place with my partner and while I'm a :apple: addict she'd rather I don't infest the vibe of the whole house with tech. We like to play Minecraft together on our own server and I like hosting other simple servers from home. I was using a 2007 Mac Mini but the 3GB Ram...

Having an issue with partner not being able to accept a Home invite since having iOS13 on the phone. Invite is received but just spins (even though it shows as addd my side). Tried creating another ‘home’ and does the same thing... likewise if he tries to invite me. Remember this happening in...

I'm just new in Mac (macOS Mojave 10.14.6 - MacBook Pro 15", 2019) because besides being more ergonomic, it has some specific keys used in my language. In addition there are some other very useful keys: "print screen", "page up", "page down", "home" and "end". Unfortunately I found that they are...

I am one of these people who have been desperately holding onto my iPhone 6s. With a new battery, I still believe this is one of the best, most utilitarian phones available. (Headphone jack, 3D Touch, works with AirPods, etc.) To my dismay, my physical home button finally stopped responding...

In betas 1-3 I would get video motion notifications with the option to open a live stream. Has that been removed in beta 4 or is it just a bug?

This weeks theme - Home So I'm currently selling the house where I've lived for 17 years. I had to re do the photos the agents photographer did as they were awful (don't think he understood WB!). Anyway kind of got me thinking about home and what it would look like in a photograph. So the idea...

I bought a bunch of hue bulbs recently. I put them in the entrance of my house, my bathroom, my bedroom, and another bedroom. There is a den that has no hue bulbs, but it has an Apple TV that acts as a hub. The "other" bedroom (that has a hue bulb) has its own Apple TV that uses a separate...

https://imgur.com/a/4VfMoTQ I have an Emerson Sensi Thermostat. Recently I’ve noticed a problem. While it shows up on my iPhone in the Apple Home app just fine. It doesn’t show up on other devices in the home app. If I go to my fathers phone its not there, or my iMac and its not there. It’s...

I am running into issues at home with multiple Macs, multiple users, storage issues, and managing updates. I know enough about all of this to be dangerous. What would be the best way to manage all this using Mac server? What I envision is each user being able to use any device (iMac, several...

This is a question that's been on my mind for awhile so I'm hoping I can get some great responses from the community here :). So, as a potential purchaser of furniture I want to buy something that lasts and I'm willing to pay for the value. I've look at regular furniture stores, but for the...

Just picked up a HomePod (music is fantastic on it) but having an issue with my Home settings. I have two rooms with Lutron dimmer switches, the living room and a bedroom. When I tell Siri, through the HP to turn on the bedroom light, it turns on the living room light. It works fine on the...

This thread will be an ongoing comprehensive review of HomePod in Canada. I've had my HomePod in Toronto for about a week now and can report that while HomePod setup was seamless, recognizing my Canadian AppleID and Apple Music account with no issue, Canadians looking to import a HomePod should...
