Resolved Apple Pencil 1st Gen Unresponsive
I have an iPad 8th gen and a 1st gen Pencil and they're refusing to talk to each other. I noticed it the other day shortly after flashing Beta 5 onto the unit, and it actually runs it pretty well, but I get nothing out of the pencil (nothing in Bluetooth, no battery indication in any of the...- mslilyelise

They love it!!
Man….everyone I’ve showed iOS/iPadOS and MacOS absolutely loved it… It’s funny how the general public reacts compared to the niche community that we are!! (By general public I mean the people around me that do not care about this as much as us) I think Liquid Glass might be it, in comparison... -

Sonos and Spatial Audio
After heavy considerations I decided to go with several Sonos Era 300 devices. Friendly members suggested to install more traditional devices but I opted for a smart device. The reviews on Sonos era 300 were awesome and the devices were said to outshine Apple’s HomePod. The use case were to be...- grandM

iPad Pro Magic Keyboard Case
Hi folks, I'm considering getting the Magic Keyboard for my iPad Pro M4 13" and was wondering if there's a case/skin that fully covers all four edges of the iPad — including the buttons — while still allowing the Smart Connector and magnets to function properly with the Magic Keyboard...- David30L

iPad Pro IPadOS 26 finally killed off my 2018 iPad Pro
The iPad Pro 2018 was an amazing device and lasted me 7 years. From 2018-2020 it was my main device, replacing my Macbook itself. Since then, it’s taken a back seat to iphone 16 and macbook M2 s didnt get used much, but when used it still worked brilliantly for an older device. I took the... -

Do we think Apple even wants people to just use an iPad?
So I've kind of been circling this question in recent weeks and I'd be really interested to know what others thought. Today I watched a video by Noah Hermann on YouTube in which he says 'Apple wants you to buy both a Mac and an iPad' and this really led me to pause and reflect on this. I... -

iPad How can I watch the Spectrum live tv streaming app on my iPad from my iPhone?
While I'm driving in my car I can watch live tv on my iPhone, streamed on the Spectrum app. I works great! I wish there was a way to display and watch the app on my iPad via cable or wireless transfer from my iPhone. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can do this? I could probably go and buy...- questionwonder

iPadOS 26 external display
I've seen little about iPadOS 26 and external display support if I'm honest, even amongst all the 'ipads now replace Macs' hype. These discussions or videos often focus on the iPad on its own, then often conclude that actually they don't quite replace Macs for most people, but disregard one of... -

Ipad as the only display for Max
Hello everyone. I often use my ipad as a second monitor for my Mac. A long time ago, I saw from some blogger how he made a separate keyboard shortcut so that the ipad could connect to the Mac as a display without the main one. That is, I turn on the Mac, press the keyboard shortcut and the ipad... -

iPadOS 26 on an iPad 8 (A12, 2020)
Not gonna lie, I had low expectations for putting iPadOS 26 on a 5 year-old iPad that only has 3 GB of RAM and the A12. I was not disappointed. Practically it can do 2 windows or the old split-screen. Beyond that it gets extremely stuttery and laggy. Now I know this is the first dev beta and... -

iPadOS 26 Adds a New “Eject” Option For External Drives in the Files App!
Now, in the Menu Bar, an “Eject” option is listed under File. It is currently grayed out, which leads me to believe it’s still under work, as an eject symbol still doesn’t appear on a drive in the sidebar either. But the presence of this option indicates the option is coming, which will be... -

iPad Dolby Vision HDR playback on iPad 6 (A10) vs iPhone 7 (A10)
Neither the iPad 6 nor the iPhone 7 can record a Dolby Vision HDR video, a feature introduced in iPhone 12 series. While both have A10 as the SoC, why is it that only the iPhone 7 can show/play the video with the correct colors unlike on the iPad 6 (and I think even the iPad 9) where the colors... -

iPad Air Multiple accounts on shared iPad
Our family has one iPad that we share amongst us. Is it possible to have the iPad signed in to one iCloud account, but then have Photos, Messages, Mail, etc. signed in to another iCloud user? In other words, can I pick and choose which iCloud service is being used by which iCloud account?
