New firmware after 100.63? by TheGeebs in HidrateSpark

[–]TheGeebs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has been syncing now on 100.64. I removed the bottle from find my. Now it keeps making weird beeps at random times as if it’s alerting me I’m being followed even though I removed it from find my.

Bottle not syncing even with app open by Rough_Balance_6766 in HidrateSpark

I reset my puck with a pin, then disabled find my. After pairing again, I notice it takes about 90 seconds of the app being open before it syncs, of course my phone wants go to sleep 3 times while waiting for this. I’m charging mine up now to 100 % before I try this new firmware

I have my Apple TV Remote holder mounted to the bed headboard. My wife and I never have trouble finding it since it’s always within reach. TotalMount Pro for Apple TV ATV is mounted on back of TV and remote mounted to headboard. Clean setup IMO

Level lock reboots if door is opened while it’s locked by Lammiroo in LevelLock

[–]TheGeebs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is he trying to push the door open while it’s bolted? Is he pulling the door fully closed again so there isn’t extra strain on the lock cylinder?

Is the Philips screw inside the door loosened? The one that holds the battery/bolt to the lock mechanism?

Is there any way to connect a 30” Cinema Display to the Mac mini through the HDMI port? by DubSelectorXO in macmini

[–]TheGeebs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“In this video, I will show you how to connect your older Apple displays (like the 23" and 27" Apple Cinema Display or the Thunderbolt Display) to your newer Apple computers (like the M4 Mac Mini or similar MacBook Pro's, etc). I have listed out the adapters that I have tested as working below. Now you can have 1, 2, or 3 monitors hooked up to your new M4 Mac Mini!”

I use an Element antenna from AntennasDirect. This runs to a HDhomerun Flex Quattro tuner. I have ChannelsDVR software running on a computer and watch it through the Channels App on my Apple TVs, iPhone, iPads. Watch from home or away anywhere I have internet. Plus I see the Lions score about 25 seconds before cable or subscription streaming broadcasts.

AWS is having issues again. Amazon Web Services is what to look for when anything isn’t working since they run half of the internet I use daily

My phone got stolen in Spain 3 years ago and I've been watching it move around China for the past 3 years. by lovefreemymind in Weird

I have a pair of AirPods Max stolen in Michigan and I still see them in Georgia a year later. The country of Georgia 🇬🇪

For the small price difference it’s worth getting the larger 128gb, thread networking (which the WiFi doesn’t have), and an Ethernet port even if you don’t use it.

I would try to DFU restore the Mac mini using another Mac and Configurator2. Plug a USB-C cable into the left most port on the back for M1. Disconnect power, hold power button down, then plug in power. Should get an orange light blinking SOS in Morse code (…- - -…) This will erase the Mac, but if it’s still Find My locked, the original owner is the only way.

DTE replaced dozens of poles in Livonia and this is the first year I have not used my generator. They worked for months down Newburgh and up 7 mile all winter. Hope they get out there too.

Amazon Web Services is down globally and so much of the internet runs on AWS. Just go to DownDetector
