Apple is working on a new MacBook Neo with two key upgrades, including an A19 Pro chip and increased RAM, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. The updated MacBook Neo is one of 11 new Mac models that Apple plans to release.

With the A19 Pro chip, the second-generation MacBook Neo should have 12GB of RAM, up from an A18 Pro chip with 8GB of RAM in the current model.

The report suggested that the next MacBook Neo will also have new color options. Existing finishes include Silver, Blush, Citrus, and Indigo.

I recently bought an iPhone 17 Pro Max from the Apple Store after using Android all my life.

I sat down with the employee who helped me set up the phone, we created an Apple Account and she helped me download WhatsApp and Angry Birds. Once I got the hang of using the phone, I left the store.

Everything was going great until around an hour later, when I saw a notifciation asking me to login to my Apple account - I forgot the exact wording of it.

I tried to login via the settings on my iPhone and it kept saying something like "Verification error".

I then tried to login on the website on my iPhone, and it said my account was locked and I should enter my phone number to request access to my account. I entered my number and the next day, I received an email saying my access request was denied.

I tried to login again after that and a message said my account was no longer active.

I can't do anything beyond basic tasks on the phone now since I can't download apps anymore, I can't even log out of the phone because it keeps popping up with the same message asking me to enter the password to my account when I try to log out.

I can't understand why this has happened.

Hi,

I am thinking about buying a Macbook Pro (M5 Pro 16"), although there is a few areas im not sure about;

-I would really benefit from a nano-texture screen but if I'm not wrong, it's not really possible to upgrade to one without buying from Apple's official website. And this increases the price a lot compared to retailers. (at least 500$) Is this upgrade worth it this much? Also are there any cons to nano-texture?

-How can I decide if I need a ram upgrade or not? Of course I am not expecting somebody to give me the exact amount I need here. I'm looking for sources that can help me.

-I'm also not sure about the storage neither. Any tips on how I could predict what I need?

Are there any overall tips you could give me? For example would a 16 inch instead of 14 make it that much harder to carry?

You can ask me any questions,

I'd definitely appreciate any help.😊

I found my dad's iPod a few years ago but I could never manage to reset it. It will not show up on any PC, I've tried a Windows Vista and 7 PC with old iTunes to no avail as well. I've tried every cable I have and it doesn't show up. Windows isn't even making the hardware insert sound. I've tried putting it into disk mode but it still won't recognize. I'm about to just try to crack the passcode by brute forcing it.

My screen got totally busted.. the stores claim they have Original screen that costs around 500$.. and not original one for around 350$..

Does it matter if its original or not i mean specs wise..?
And there is really original screen to replace or its a scam?

My Mac is stuck in a startup/login loop, and I haven’t been able to resolve it.

Every time I enter my login password, instead of logging in, the Mac immediately restarts, shows the Apple logo, and then brings me back to the login screen to enter my password again. This keeps repeating indefinitely.

I’ve already tried multiple troubleshooting steps, including reinstalling and updating macOS to macOS Tahoe through Recovery Mode—twice. Unfortunately, this hasn’t fixed the issue. If anything, it has only consumed more of my storage space.

After the second reinstall, the Mac worked normally for about two days, but now the exact same startup loop has returned. At this point, I’m not sure what else to try or what might be causing the problem.
Could you please help me understand what the issue might be and what the next steps should be to fix it?

i tried to download ikywt from the standard edition of red but now i want it on deluxe and i can’t download it. i’ve tried looking at every place like hidden purchases

Changing wifi does not help. Using hotspot doesn’t help either.

Resolved

Hey everyone,

I wanted to post this because I spent almost 5 hours trying to fix this and couldn't find anyone with the exact same issue.

My iPhone wasn't showing up in Apple Devices (or previously iTunes), but Windows was detecting it. Every time I plugged it in, Windows played the USB connection sound, the phone charged normally, and Device Manager could see it. However, it never appeared in Apple Devices or File Explorer, and I never got the "Trust This Computer?" prompt on the iPhone.

I tried pretty much everything I could find online: reinstalling Apple Devices, iTunes, Apple USB drivers, Apple Mobile Device Support, updating Windows and AMD chipset drivers, running DISM and SFC, resetting Location & Privacy on the iPhone, trying different cables, USB 2.0/3.0/3.2 ports, and even testing two different iPhones. Both phones worked perfectly on another Windows PC, so I knew the problem was specific to my computer.

The breakthrough came when I checked Device Manager and PowerShell. My iPhone wasn't using Apple's normal USB driver—it was listed under libusb-win32 devices as "iPhone (Composite Parent)". I had previously used apps like Camo, Iriun, and DroidCam, so I suspect one of them replaced the normal Apple USB driver with a libusb driver.

The fix was surprisingly simple: I uninstalled iPhone (Composite Parent) from libusb-win32 devices, restarted my PC, and plugged the iPhone back in. As soon as I reconnected it, Apple Devices immediately recognized it, the "Trust This Computer?" prompt finally appeared, and everything started working again.

If your iPhone charges, Windows plays the USB sound, and Device Manager detects it, but Apple Devices, File Explorer, and the Trust prompt never appear, check whether your iPhone is listed under libusb-win32 devices. That ended up being the entire problem for me.

Hopefully this saves someone else a few hours of frustration. It definitely wasn't the cables, USB ports, Windows updates, or Apple's drivers in my case. 🚀

Everything I Tried (Before Finding the Real Cause)

I spent nearly 5 hours troubleshooting this. Here's everything I tried before finding the actual problem:

Apple Software

• Reinstalled Apple Devices.
• Reinstalled Apple Mobile Device Support.
• Installed and tested iTunes.
• Reinstalled Apple's official USB drivers.
• Used the Apple Mobile Drivers Installer project from GitHub to reinstall every Apple USB driver.
• Verified Apple Mobile Device Service was installed and running.

Windows

• Restarted Windows multiple times.
• Installed all available Windows Updates.
• Updated AMD chipset drivers.
• Ran:
  • DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
  • sfc /scannow
• Verified Windows wasn't reporting any USB errors.

iPhone

• Restarted the iPhone several times.
• Reset Location & Privacy.
• Reconnected the phone while unlocked.
• Waited for the "Trust This Computer?" prompt (it never appeared).

Hardware

• Tested multiple USB cables.
• Tested USB 2.0 ports.
• Tested USB 3.0 ports.
• Tested USB 3.2 ports.
• Tested both front-panel and rear motherboard USB ports.
• Verified the phone charged normally every time.

Cross-Testing

• Tested two different iPhones.
• Both phones had exactly the same issue on my gaming PC.
• Both phones worked perfectly on another Windows computer (Surface Pro).
• This ruled out the iPhone, the cable, and the phones themselves.

PowerShell & Driver Investigation

• Checked Device Manager.
• Verified Windows was detecting the iPhone.
• Used PowerShell (Get-PnpDevice) to inspect the device.
• Used pnputil to inspect installed drivers.
• Verified Apple's official drivers were installed.
• Eventually discovered the iPhone was attached to libusb-win32 as "iPhone (Composite Parent)" instead of using Apple's USB driver.

The Fix

• Opened Device Manager.
• Expanded libusb-win32 devices.
• Uninstalled iPhone (Composite Parent).
• Restarted Windows.
• Reconnected the unlocked iPhone.
• Apple Devices immediately detected it, the "Trust This Computer?" prompt appeared again, and everything started working normally.

Hey Guys I've had my iPad and iPhone for a couple years now and all of a sudden These Spots appeared independently. What may have caused this and is it dangerous? Thank you in advance

By the way both work perfectly fine right now

My iPad randomly started bootlooping, and would die when unplugged. Now suddenly, it won't charge at all except when plugged into another iPad. When plugged into this iPad, it'll bootloop, but I know it's not cycling the battery because DFU mode doesn't bootloop. This leads me to believe its software related. When plugged into a Mac, Windows PC, or the wall it doesn't turn on or show up in Devices or Finder. I can get into DFU mode, but it dies when unplugged from the iPad, and an iPad can't do anything with another iPad's DFU mode. I've tried 10+ cords. The charging port is clean. Any ideas?

I forgot my iphones password then i restored it but my icloud password doesn't work how can i change it?

My iPad Mini have started to act weirdly.

After a day or two the touchscreen get less responsive. I can only with difficulty slide to turn off. When I turn it on again it works fine for another few days.

What is the problem and how can I fix it?

Hey everyone, I'm wondering if the latest iOS version still lets me redownload apps that I've previously downloaded, even if they're now hidden/unavailable in my region, as long as they're still in my purchase history? Also, if I sign in to my App Store account on a new device, will my purchase history and newly downloaded apps still be saved/synced?"

i used to have an iphone 12 and i had to get a new phone (the 16) because i had no storage at all like it would delete stuff and id get notifications for texts and they wouldn’t be there, etc. but i used to have voicemails from my dad who passed away and they haven’t been there since the issues with my old phone. PLEASE HELP. i want them back but i can’t find a way to get them.

How can I stop it from doing that?
macOS Tahoe 26.5.2

Apple readies end-to-end Mac overhaul, including M6 MacBook Pro and new iMacs this year; and several new redesigned MacBook Pros with touch and OLED and new MacBook Air and MacBook Neo models across end of this year and next year.

Apple is also planning M5 Pro + M6 Mac mini and M5 Max + M5 Ultra Mac Studio, but their configurations and release timing are fairly tied to the memory shortage. Current models don’t ship for three months. Apple also has an OLED iMac and OLED MacBook Air in the works for down the road.

I just don't want anyone to be able to recovery my data.

I've had this problem for as long as I can remember. My bank account will just randomly disappear but will seemingly come back at some point (when I receive new funds?).

Idk why it happens but does this happen to anyone else? I really really don't want to pay for the instant transfer.

If I re-input my routing and account number, the screen says "bank account added successfully" or something to that effect, but then the transfer screen still shows no bank. I've even tried a different bank account and still nothing gets added.

Every time I click on my name in settings the picture down below shows and I can’t press any of the buttons, pressing sign-in and security gives me a code but also this is my only device.
Sign in with apple button will not work, sometimes a notification with Verification failed would pop up, does anyone know how to fix this? I’ve tried switching to wifi and still nothing helps, I don’t want to have to reset the iphone
