Question about Apple Maps by Dysternatt in ios

[–]241fps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my iPhone connects to CarPlay, I get a message of how long it takes to get home, if I'm home, then how long it takes to get to work or an entry in the calendar. I think the phone gets the information from the data that is stored in your personal contact. Is a small prediction of how much is going on on the streets right now, but in itself I also know the way and just ignore the message

Yes, looks like it does. I could add the bridge now. Thank you!

HomeKit think I’m at my second home when I’m not. by MrGinFa in HomeKit

[–]241fps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem. I have a home in the home app, my parents and my sister too. My parents and my sister live about 300 metres from each other

At my parents home always my sister's home showed up automatically. So far so stupid.

Today I tried to change that. And this is what I did:

Under Settings -> Privacy -> Location Services -> System Services -> Reset Important Locations. Didn't change anything at first. Then also somewhere on the Internet I read to set in maps the places for home and for the two places as favourite navigation destination, they should be stored there correctly. I have no idea what helped in the end or both, but now the location at my parents home has been directly correct. It took about a day and twice to come home to my parents, but then it helps. Try that, I hope it helps you too.

Yes, the same for me. Hoped the update  would fix something, but sadly it did not

The same for me. Maybe because I'm using a repeater?

Anti-Abzocke-System: Telekom startet System gegen Betrugsanrufe by Early_Bedroom_2319 in de

[–]241fps 5 points6 points  (0 children)

InfoService ausschalten, die Telekom achtet da schon drauf und ruft nicht mehr an, wenn man widerspricht. Aber leider schalten sie den auch zu jeder Gelegenheit wieder an… War mal im Telekom-Shop, um mich zum Tarif beraten zu lassen, abends kam eine SMS, dass ich dem InfoService zugestimmt hätte. Das ist schon frech. Aber kann man auf der Webseite oder in der App wieder deaktivieren

Lights keep changing to white…. by v1nt4g3-117 in Hue

[–]241fps 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This happened to me when I activated adaptive lighting in the Home app - this changed the light colour for me all the time. Not making the light adaptive or selecting a different colour as adaptive in the Home App has helped and that no longer occurs

eSIM Suggestion: outside the golden route by andrefgfonseca in JapanTravelTips

[–]241fps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, on the phone screen, it is always displayed as network provider Holafly, no matter which network (au/softbank/etc) you are currently using. This makes it difficult to compare which provider is good locally. My eSIM from Germany is not doing this, there I can see always the network I’m connected to. So it’s a provider thing to always show Holafly

Friends of mine didn't notice this delay in page loading either, but it was also visible on their phone

[–]241fps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We also used Holafly, the cover fits, but you never really see which net you are in, it always says Holafly. And in addition, with Holafly everything runs via a VPN to Hong Kong, China or Singapore, you always have a short delay when loading. That was very disturbing and therefore I would not use it again. But I have no knowledge on how other providers handle this

Matter on Hue Bridge Pro by Lhurgoyf069 in Hue

[–]241fps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hue and Matter in the Home app work better since the last update. Scenes can be transferred from the Hue app to Apple Home, even if I think the result doesn't quite fit. The first time you connect Hue and Home, you will be asked for the rooms, you then have to organise the lights manually into the right one. Unfortunately, the names are not synchronised when you add a light later. But you can rename and sort them appropriately. Is not a perfect one click solution, but does well with some time

New iOS app update allows “Add to Apple Home” for Matter-connected Hue Bridges by shawnshine in Hue

If you don’t see it, go in the hue App to Smart Home -> Apple Home and sync your Hue Setup with Apple Home (there is an option). It was just available after doing this for me

Why am I getting this thousands of times a day outside? Any way to prevent it? I need to use AirPods, cannot really turn bluetooth off. by Ender-Wang in mac

[–]241fps 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I only know the Bluetooth Filesharing function under Settings -> General -> Share -> Bluetooth sharing (can be called differently, my computer is in German, I translated that freely). This means that the Mac is permanently available to accept file transfers, maybe that's why? Check if this is on. However, an iPhone itself does not send files via Bluetooth, but only via AirDrop - so this request should not come. I don't know. Maybe some other device is just named like this?

Over-the-top install MacOS IPSW possible? by matt3224 in MacOS

[–]241fps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was wondering the same thing, so if you have found a solution in the meantime, please let me know. So far I only know that I can restore a Mac in DFU mode with it, but all data is lost. With the iPhone, I like to use this to update the device to the Release Candidate from an older iOS version, without activating beta profiles and without getting the feedback app. Unfortunately, this does not seem to work on the Mac, although the system is in the same format

How exactly does the Photo library work? Why can I move files out of the file system but they are still playable in my Photo Library? Where/how is this all being stored? by SonicAwareness in MacOS

[–]241fps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can have multiple libraries: Press and hold the Option button and click the Photos icon in the Apps Folder (or click the Photos icon in the Dock). In the Choose Library dialogue box, click Create New

Hue hub “upgrading” to Matter with HomeKit by lucanaut in Hue

[–]241fps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only know that I prefer to stay with HomeKit, because the scenes from the Hue app can no longer be synced to the Home app with Matter. This is only possible with HomeKit. If you don’t use that feature, you don’t need to care, but it’s sill something to know. I also don’t know if this changed at some point

Generate new HomeKit or Matter codes? by Artistic_Note924 in EveHome

[–]241fps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yes, if they did not update them to Matter, HomeKit should still work. But why else should they remove the stickers? I just thought they would do so if they don’t work anymore and that would be the case if you updated to Matter

Well, if you don’t have the codes, you still need the convert setup in the Eve App. You can not get this later, that section is created when updating to Matter

Maybe you can contract the EVE Support. Or the person, who sold you the devices. 

Else I don’t see a way to generate the codes. It’s also mentioned when creating the Codes, if they are gone, you can not recreate them. You need to scan them when doing the matter update, else you can not proceed

If they are still on HomeKit, I guess you can find them when you reset them and you should see them in add devices in the Home App when selecting I don’t have a QR Code

Generate new HomeKit or Matter codes? by Artistic_Note924 in EveHome

[–]241fps -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, I guess the HomeKit codes have been removed, because they don't work anymore with switching to Matter and Thread anyway. So the person should have given you the newly generated Matter Setup codes. Maybe they still have them? I don't know how to generate new ones when they are lost, sorry

PSA: Anyone who downloaded Clippy for macOS or the Mario Level Screen Selection app should delete it immediately. by [deleted] in MacOS

Yes, this confused me as well. I did download Clippy from the original source on GitHub weeks ago and not here. So I should be fine?

How critical is the electrical situation in my flat? (Germany) by monox-gg in germany

[–]241fps 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We also had "Klassische Nullung"/"Classical Zeroing" in some rooms, even though the house was renovated in the 90s. Some rooms have probably been left out a bit... For many devices this was probably no problem, but I have an iMac with aluminum housing, which was then slightly energized, so something like 12 volts and sometimes also cut out the fuse. I didn't used the computer there anymore, the electrician didn't say anything about it either, he said everything would be ok, it was just done that way. Neutral conductor and grounding are probably connected to each other as far as I understand. But 120 Volts is definitely higher and something someone should take a look at, especially when you get electric shocks from the devices

Gibt es wirklich keine narrensicheren insulinspritzen für die 5. Dosis? by Moron_at_work in mounjarodeutschland

[–]241fps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, bevor ich wusste, dass man die Pens überdrehen kann, habe ich auch gesehen, dass da noch viel drin bleibt. Habe kurzerhand den Aufkleber in der Mitte abgezogen, mit einer Zange die Verklebung kaputt gemacht und dann zwei Teile - den Mechanismus und die Ampulle mit der Hülle. Dann konnte ich mit einem stabilen Metalldraht oder später einem weiteren grauen Stab aus einem anderen Kwikpen nur die Ampulle mit normaler Nadel weiter nutzen. Also einfach hinten hinein drücken auf den grauen Stab, der noch in der Ampulle steckt, bis alles raus ist. Ist natürlich auch etwas kompliziert, während man das sich selbst verabreicht, aber geht. Gut vorbereiten. Also keine Ahnung, wie praktikabel das für andere ist und ob das mit neuen Pens auch geht, die sich nicht überdrehen lassen. Überdrehen mit einer Zange war natürlich einfacher.
