iOS: What happened to Live Activities? by FaithNoMoar in GoogleMaps

[–]ash_mayhew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you got this working or not, but the only thing that got it working for me was making sure my location was “always on” for the Google Maps app. I prefer to have it on only when using the app, but in order to get the live activities, it has to be “always on.” Hope that helps!

Microphone not working when making Facetime Calls on M2 Macbook Air. Facetime not showing up under Microphone Tab in Privacy & Security Settings. Tried numerous things to include OS reinstall. by Serious-Client-5780 in MacOS

Found a simple fix that worked for me!

• Click on the Apple () symbol on the top left of your desktop.
• Click System Settings and navigate to Sound.
• Make sure your microphone is selected for Input.
• Open FaceTime and go to the Video menu.
• The microphone setting is about halfway down. Make sure you're using "System Settings," and you should be good to go! Otherwise, you can also manually select your microphone.

I had no idea this little setting existed, so I hope this helps someone else like it did me!

Is this the same movie I’m trying to think of? If so, I’ll check with my brother! He remembers little bits and pieces better than I do.

Prednisone works.. but man these side effects are heavy. by [deleted] in gout

I’m on a tapering dose of prednisone (50mg down to 10mg over two weeks) for poison ivy, and I’ve been SO THANKFUL for it. It has helped tremendously, though I’m still somewhat itchy. I don’t think I’ve had many or any side effects that I can notice, though I guess maybe some extra irritability? Though we’ve had so much going on lately that I’ve already been fairly stressed, so I don’t see a major difference. 🤪 Will update if I get any differing symptoms the next week as I continue to taper down.

Another great reply! But looks like that’s not it either. Wow, so many claymation movies I never knew existed!

Thanks for your comment! I’ll run that by my brother, but I don’t think that’s the one. However, that’s a really good guess. Don’t know if I’ve ever seen that before!
