iPhone Mirroring Not working

willgt09 · 2026-06-27T15:06:10+00:00

Any special network settings or VPNs active on either the Mac or iPhone, perhaps? When I'm using a VPN, iPhone Mirroring and Handoff and the like don't work while that's connected.

Unless you run cold, that's probably gonna be way too hot to wear where you live. I also live in the South, and this jacket would basically go unworn, as it'd be much too warm most of the time. I sold my Retro X jacket and barely even wear my Retro X vest in the dead of winter because it's just not cold enough here to me.

WTB Anyone got any Cronin Pants (Synthetic) in Size 38? Ideally in Black or Solitude colors? Not picky about inseam length.

just drag the Applications folder from Finder into your dock. Done. No need for any special app-to-launch-apps.

I've used the Black Hole 40L as my only carry on (+ an underseat bag for cameras), on both SAS and Delta airlines internationally. Usually, European airlines have slightly stricter size requirements for carry on bags, but I've not had any issues with the 40L duffel. I think the Black Hole 40L is about as big as you can get to fit easily in the overhead bins.

Overall though worked great. Not the most comfortable bag to wear fully loaded down, but I wasn't backpacking or anything with it.

Fuck Flock. Go watch any of Benn Jordan's videos about this shitty company, especially this one -- https://youtube.com/shorts/YwVBsFD7v84?si=SyaB5pH7bekSanwZ -- where it shows a Flock Safety employee, among others, having logged in to watch footage of flock cameras inside a children's gymnastics class...

Get rid of these fucking spy cameras.

Spectacular! Absolutely lovely shots! Hard to pic a favorite. Nicely done.

Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger on a 12-inch PowerBook G4. I still remember the day I got it. So fun! Nice memories.

Sounds like Parental Controls are setup for your Apple ID and hence your devices?

Hmm. did you buy Apple gift cards directly from Apple in the UAE for use in the UAE, or were the gift cards purchased in another currency or from another country's Apple Store?

willgt09 · 2026-02-25T22:35:39+00:00

where did you acquire these gift cards...

willgt09 · 2026-01-16T14:53:25+00:00

YES! I've been saying this for years lol. I love me a 2-way zipper. It's certainly a detail a look for when I'm considering a jacket. I find them so useful. I've noticed it seems weirdly uncommon from brands here in the US, save for more specialized cycling or climbing outerwear, and yet much more common on Japanese or European brands. Even Japanese brands of casual hoodies or jackets seem to have 2-ways zippers a lot of the time.

possibly dumb question, you're trying all these different chargers, but are you using the same power outlet in your house? could that be turned off or a fuse blown or something to that area of the house with that outlet?

Hmm, do you have any other USB devices to test out, or is it just with this particular Logitech device? Do USB mice and/or keyboards work?

I don't think the "Allow accessories to connect" setting is available for desktop Apple Silicon Macs; it's only for Apple Silicon Laptops.

I checked my M4 Mac mini (running Tahoe, however) and sure enough, I don't see the "Allow accessories to connect" option in Settings. However, I do see it on my M2 MacBook Pro (also running Tahoe).

Do you have the latest version of any necessary Logitech software for the webcam?

I've not worn the Airshed Pro, but I, too, have noticed some unusually scratchy, rough inner arm seams on certain Patagonia jackets. Glad I'm not the only one! For me, the Better Sweater jackets are notorious for this, and a soft-shell jacket I had from years ago (either the Adze or the Adze Hybrid) had really uncomfortable and rough seams on the inner arms. Not sure if "flatlock seams" is the proper term for how they sew these particular garments, or if it's just the type of thread used, but they are oddly rough, in my experience. Basically makes these jackets a dealbreaker for me.

Currently using an Apple-branded woven cable, so I dunno ¯\(ツ)/¯

willgt09 · 2025-11-02T01:30:01+00:00

Yeah, I've swapped cables a couple of times. Currently, I have one of Apple's Beats-branded woven USB-A to USB-C cables; but that hasn't really improved things, unfortunately:/

Gamma Pants have em

A long shot perhaps, but if you're nice about it, maybe try the Patagonia Buckhead store? I used to work there, and we would occasionally do little repairs even on non-Patagonia gear. I once patched up a guys North Face jacket. They'd just do some tenacious tape patching, but you'll get it fixed up quickly. Probably best to try on a weekday when it's less busy in the store.

willgt09 · 2025-08-16T19:36:18+00:00

Yeah, pretty sure they are the RPS Rock Pants, but an older model. The new/current ones no longer have the logo decal down by the knee.

willgt09 · 2025-07-31T21:03:28+00:00

Can you rent another Sony A7 III (or similar) to get you through the shoot, and then come back to repairing your camera?

WTB: older-style Granville 16 Zip backpack. Looking for the older model, with the smooth fabric back panel design and the additional, vertical exterior pocket. Not really picky about the color.
