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.

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.

Apple today announced that AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss coverage is now available for the iPad and Apple Watch in Japan, after previously being limited to the iPhone there.

In addition, monthly and annual AppleCare+ plans are now available for a wider range of Apple products in Japan.

The building remains open to the public while the work is completed, but the area housing a 3D augmented reality model of Apple Park is temporarily closed.

"Please pardon our appearance while we improve our store," says Apple. "During this time, the Exhibition Space is temporarily closed."

Apple did not indicate when the improvements will be completed.

Apple's privacy policy for the Apple Store app suggests it will soon get a virtual shopping assistant to help users decide what to purchase.

The app will have a chat interface where users can ask questions about Apple products, with Apple using data like account information, device identifiers, chat information, carrier information, and location data to offer a personalized experience. Transcripts of chats are saved for later reference.

Apple says that information is sent to its "partners" to help Apple provide a conversational response, which suggests Apple might be using a third-party AI model for the virtual assistant.

I received some AirPods Pro 3 recently and noticed that the pop-up wouldn’t show. I didn’t mind so I used it normally.
Today, I decided to forget the device and factory reset the AirPods alongside updating my iPhone 13 Pro Max to iOS 18.7.8.

Not only did this remove the AirPods’ ability to have its dedicated section below my iCloud account in settings, but the pop-up says ‘Cannot connect’ and doesn’t do anything when retrying

Any ways to fix this?? It might be the update being outdated but I have no space left for iOS 26 and it says Pro 3 should be compatible with iOS 18?

Video attached below of what shows up when connecting after resetting and forgetting device (also attempted with case off charge)

TLDR: all solutions to making the AirPods pop-up come up won’t work on my iPhone 13 Pro Max

Any help appreciated!!!

I charged my iPad from dead and it showing this. I’ve already ‘restored’ it with my phone. Can anyone help me

My Apple Studio Display is so laggy I can't use it. I have it connected using the Apple supplied chord. I just installed the Studio Display Update that popped up, but the issue persists. Here are the recent updates I have made and my system info.

Any advice?

Hope everyone is doing well. I charged my phone to 95pc last night before sleeping and when i woke up it was 92 pc. After getting ready for my office I checked again and it was at v. I checked the settings and it was saying 3pc consumed by maps background usage despite background refresh turned off. And after some usage the settings were showing the home and lock screen consuming 5pc and the screen active time was only 1min for it. I just purchased it 3 days ago. I'm also attaching a photo for reference. Thank you.

so i have a failed payment on the app store because i didn’t get paid until now, i only have one active bank card which is my cash app card that has my money on it, however my cash app card got removed from my payment methods (i only have an old card added that i can’t use anymore) but every time i attempt to add my card to pay what i owe (so i can download apps) i get an error message: “There is an issue with your payment method. Update your payment information to correct the problem and try again.” i have tried changing my billing address and the wasn’t the issue, all my information is correct, how do i get around this error without need a complete other card? i look at the apple support page for how to fix the error and all i saw to add a different card to pay off the balance then add your original card.

When I try signing into some websites with apple, it just has me put in my passcode, but for other websites it makes me put in my apple ID and password. That wouldn’t be a problem if not for the fact that when I put in my password, it always says failed to verify. I still get the notification telling me that someone used the correct password, but I can’t get in. I’m using a pretty old Ipad (don’t know which model specificall) so that might be the problem, but if anyone knows a way to skip the apple ID step and just put in my passcode to sign in, I could really use it.

when i open them, they just show the pop up tab without the airpods displayed on them.

is there a way to maybe factory reset them ? im not sure what the solution would be :/

just in case it’s relevant i have an iphone 12, i only have 805 things in my camera roll currently and not many apps. am i just doomed or is there something i can do? i feel like i pretty much just threw 4 bucks down the drain because i still can’t access 99% of my camera roll. (the 3.99 option for more storage said photos and videos were included so i’m confused)

my icloud doesn’t have anything lingering on there either, it looks the exact same as my camera roll and i don’t have any files saved whatsoever. i’m really just at a loss especially because i don’t know much about phones. and yes i turned my phone off and back on after making the storage purchase

I would like to get one that has a tracking with both the actual airpods and then the case. I'm aware there's multiple models so I was hoping I could get a list. Thank you in advance.

i have 65000 items in my camera roll and don’t want them all to transfer to my new phone when setting up. is there a way to select only certain ones?

also, if this isn’t possible is there a way to not allow any photos from being transferred without blocking other data transfers like contacts and messages? (i haven’t had a new phone in a good few years so i don’t remember)

if my phone battery is very bad, and it dies out of nowhere, like physically turns off or something well that affect my phone settings

The reason why I’m asking is because my girlfriend said something about her battery and it’s true. She’s always on her phone. But now her location says location not found and this never happens at all. Could that be possible that her phone broke down or something? Or is she hiding it and turned it off?

My stupid cat ran over the table and pushed the laptop completely to the ground about 3 ft. Pretty obvious where the dent is and is already reflecting on the screen. Will this get worse overtime? Can i still get it fixed?

Hi guys, I have the 17 pro and it just got the most recent update. I'm trying to airdrop pictures for work from my phone to iMac and it keeps saying airdrop failed. It won't let me send any pictures. I've tried, turning my phone on and off, turning the Bluetooth/wifi on and off, and setting the airdrop receiving settings as everyone for 10 minutes. Please help!! Thanks!

I use Unifi devices in my home network, including a U7 In-Wall , u7 Access Point and a Dream Router , and I am experiencing issues when switching between 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz. My iPhone Air fails to switch to the 2.4 GHz band when the 5 GHz signal becomes too weak, even though it should logically switch at that point. I am not sure whether this is a bug in iOS or a misconfiguration of the Unifi equipment.

Hello! So currently my iPad will be working and then randomly the audio starts glitching out. It’s sounds robotic, echoing, and glitchy. If I restart the iPad then that fixes it for a while but then it’s starts to do it again after a day or two. The software is up to date, it’s running iPadOS 26.5.2 (I think?). I just can’t figure out how to fix it. I bought this iPad from Costco about 9 months ago. It’s the normal size iPad. I don’t think I have a warranty on it so I don’t think Costco will be much help. I don’t know if it’s hardware or software issues.
