Yeah, the multi-finger swipes have some bugs but they're still there. Pinching to go back home, swiping to go back and forth between apps still works for me. I think someone said reduce motion is the culprit.

Same device, I've had these issues. I think it just has some issues saving multitask state. If you 50/50 apps in landscape and then activate the switcher it saves the 50/50 as a sort of workspace, so I'm not sure if a slide-over app's "activatedness" carries across apps. What's more troubling is that my brain will be broken forever since they're probably tweaking the ux for this as well as dealing with bugs.

Anyone have experience using the pro version of LiquidText with the pencil? Looking for an app that at bare minimum lets me annotate in the margins and it looks like LiquidText would give me a lot more space to do that, plus the ability to tie handwritten notes to specific passages. Edit: Hmm maybe it won't let me tie handwritten notes to specific passages after all

I just received my iPad Pro 10.5. It's so much nicer to use than my raggedy-old-rear end iPad 2. Is there a decent stylus out there that isnt as expensive as the apple pencil?

I got the IVSO 10.5 case with detachable keyboard. It works fine and adds some bulk to the iPad so it feels more like a book when im reading on it.

I guess I've forgotten the encryption password for my iTunes backup of my iPad, which for some reason was different to my iPhone one. I'm quite happy to lose my old iTunes backups but it straight up won't let me make a new backup with a new encryption password. The Apple support page (https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT205220) basically says "lol i dunno don't use itunes anymore i guess" which isn't super helpful to me. I use iCloud automatic backup too, but I like to have a local copy. Also I wanna try to use iExplorer to inject a local save file for a non-cloud-supported game I've been playing on my iPhone into a new backup and restore that. Is there anything I can do, or am I poo poo-outta-luck with being able to make local iPad backups ever again until I buy my next iPad?

If you don't care about losing the backup, I would uninstall iTunes and wipe out the iTunes data directories: Press Windows+R, type %appdata% and trash the Apple directory there, then navigate to /AppData/Local and trash the Apple directories there Navigate to C:\ProgramData and trash the Apple directory there With those files gone, feel free to reinstall iTunes. It should let you do whatever the hell you want after that.

Question Mark Mound posted:I guess I've forgotten the encryption password for my iTunes backup of my iPad, which for some reason was different to my iPhone one. I guess I'll have to try the Mac equivalent of wiping iTunes backup/sync stuff next time I need to backup, if possible. I vaguely recall seeing instructions about that somewhere before.

I used them for some basic initial setup stuff before but apparently it causes backups to be encrypted with some mystery password. Re: the iExplorer injecting of a save game: I do super miss the iOS 8 and below days of straight up just getting into the app folders and being able to tinker in there. This is literally the only app/game I have left that doesn't use cloud saves so it'd be nice for my next iPhone/iPad to be able to have a fresh (non-backup) start but not lose that save data. Sometimes security sucks!

Question Mark Mound posted:Would this cause the next time I sync my iPhone/iPad to iTunes to do a full wipe and reset of all the synced music? It always takes a very long time when I do that and usually misses a good chunk of the songs. Very possible. iTunes is a fickle beast, which is why many have abandoned her.

That page tells you what you need to do if you don't want to never use iTunes for backups again: quote:If you don't have an iCloud account, the only way to turn off encrypted backups is to erase your device and set it up as new. Otherwise you're stuck with only iCloud backups.

I can’t get over how nice the display is on the 10.5” Pro. I recently built a computer with a fancy-rear end monitor and this thing is even better than that. I am literally typing this post on my iPad while I’m sitting at my desk in front of my new computer. This is just silly. I wish I had some more apps to take advantage of it, but otherwise, an iPad Pro with a Smart Keyboard is one of the best investments I’ve made in a long time.

Is the handwritten text search working in the current iOS 11 betas yet? If so, can anyone check if it only works for Roman alphabet languages or does it also work for e.g. Chinese or Arabic etc?parasyte posted:That page tells you what you need to do if you don't want to never use iTunes for backups again:  They really don't want anyone to use iTunes, do they?

I mean from a security standpoint it would be really dumb to let you simply disable encryption and proceed with an unencrypted backup without supplying the password.

It's less about manually plugging in data, and more about being a common conduit and repository between apps. It'd be even better if companies like Fitbit quit trying to hold your data hostage.

GoldfishStew posted:What health data is so sensitive on an iPhone? That you ran 3.2 miles? Plenty of HIPPA data on there. Also, there are some providers that can synch your medical records with HealthKit and allow you to share them with other providers as needed. And there are even apps where that allow a Dr to load treatment information and pull data directly from the app. I don't know if any or all of this exists, but say someone who requires supplemental oxygen and wants to measure consumption, has a wearable Blood O2 monitor, something that can take BP and pulse, a bluetooth scale. All of these things can use apps or interact directly with Health Kit to track data across all these things and update your doctor.

Apple products cost a premium and medical devices cost a premium, so it's a market they can enter that isn't necessarily price sensitive. If Apple figures out prickless glucose testing they'll be able to sell an Apple Watch Sugar Edition to the ever expanding hoards of diabetics and disrupt yet another market. HealthKit is encrypted because Apple wants health data to be their next big growth industry.

An encrypted iTunes backup would encrypt things like your text messages at rest on your computer. Simply allowing someone to turn it off without the password and then make an unencrypted backup would defeat the whole purpose of trying to encrypt it to begin with.

Logitech Logi is great. Adds bulk, but the keyboard is good and it's backlit. I've used mine a lot over the last year and it's been durable.
