iPhone passwords appeared in data leak? Here's the fix!
You da man! I had a couple settings wrong on my MBPro that wasn't able to send, but now all messages are going to the right places. Thanks!!!!!
I taped it, nothing happened
Thank you for the clear and concise instruction!
I'm not sure when this got added, but there is a Screenshot app until Utilities on Sonoma
Hi I've added Smart Mailboxes, but I wish them to be removed from my inbox view, it doesnt give me that option. Any idea how I can do that besides creating manual mailboxes within the email account?
Also this mailbox creation doesnt seem to work with my "non-gmail" accounts ie. imap email accounts
Hi, Super helpfull tips!! Do you know if there is an option to move multiple calendar items at once? (For example "prepare swimming gear" "Drive to swimmingpool" "swimming" "Drive home", and if I want to swim a few hours later I have to move all those items 1 at the time, but I want to move them all together as a pack.). I hope you can help me with it.
Thanks for this video. I saw four videos before to figure out a way to either sync a Google calendar or somehow use a color-coded calendar, and this video gave me much more than I expected. 🗓🤩
THANK YOU
What if it’s from yahoo mail to iCloud mail? Could you make a video of that?
I dont have a anything that says copy to icloud as an option
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ah. I remember when system preferences didn't totally suck. Those were better times.
OMG - how can anybody work with such ... - Screenshot, Copy, Paste - that is in Windows. In Mac you can do this with 4-key-"shortcut"; if you dont break your fingers, of course.
It’s easy. We were trained on finger version of twister since our childhood 😅
I’ve tried this before, no matter what my pictures quality drop to a ridiculous low definition JPG 😢 thanks for your video anyway 😊
Great job learning thank you
BETTER IMPOSSIBLE!
At last! I read several web pages & viewed other videos before discovering this. Finally restored synching of SMS between iPhone, iPad & MacBook. Thank you. No one else suggested checking iCloud setting. I wonder how that got turned off on my iPhone & iPad.
Thank you. You explain everything very clearly. I still don't have all messages on my Mac, I guess I will wait and see if it straightens itself out.
So I found that key is to have your phone number activated in iMessages. If only your email is selected, then no SMS will be synced, only your iMessages.
Good job. Thank you, Lucas.
The old way was better. I hate this.
Am looking for the "Syncing with iCloud Paused" video
you're amazing ! new Sub
Big thanks to this guy god bless you 🙏
Thank you!
Great video..what about doing two people, like husband and wife or Kids?
The people section in photos only lets you do one person at a time but you can totally make a smart album that has two or more people! If you go to File -> new smart album, then set the criteria that “people” include each person… hit the plus to add another criteria and keep adding the people. Then make sure to change it from “All” to “Any” in the little drop down.
@@lucasmacinhome THANK YOU so much. No wonder I had such a hard time!
@@lucasmacinhome too bad they don't allow family or couples! maybe one day
Awesome video thanks !
Unfortunately, this didn't work. New messages are pairing between iPhone and Macbook, but no history populating.
👍👍👍
My apple user friends often have an error message that says icloud storage full when they try and use the link. Is this an easy fix on their end? Also, is there any way to get airdrop or something similar between android and apple users?
Great info! I'm having a problem with FB messenger every time I try to use messenger chat from my mac book pro FB messenger sends a code to my iPhone I can't see my history conversation until I enter the code that FB sent to my iPhone then everything is back to normal until I delete my chrome history for today and shut down my mac book pro for the night but then the next day I go back on FB w/my mac book pro and it ask for the code again. This does not happen on my iPhone only on the mac crazy!! Thanks for all your help.
VERY VERU HELPFUL!
Sweet! Baby! Jesus! Finally an answer. I had a new M1 Pro laptop and a new IPhone Pro 15 and suddenly I couldn't be master of my universe anymore. Which seriously stunk after spending all that money. Thank you sir!
Thank you sm
puscas da tot atatea goluri cate da portarul
Thanks 🙏🏻
I wanted to say. Thank you 😃
Extraordinary orchestration of pacing, presentation, visual references and clarity. BRAVO!
Thanks for this vid. Mine was already set like this, but it's like something isn't automating every 10 mins or whenever a sync is required. It's like the phone and other devices are asleep.
Thank you! Very quick and efficient; exactly what I was looking for
My devices do not show the same things yours do.
My messages is simply not working on my iMac, I don't know what happened it quit last week.
This is way too fast, and I have the newer iPhon and iMac and the stuff is not there that you are saying. My iMessage is still not working. I followed it so many times, but it's not working.
I have a question, how long does a password take to be re-secured?
Funny.... Android can send hi res images to apple without any extra steps.... Its almost like apple is purposely making it hard to share with android. Or maybe they just haven't figured out the tech yet, they certainly have fallen behind Android in recent years
Thanks!
Finally a solution that really works and easy to follow.
Wow. Thx man!
Ok so what I get from this is the photos program on the phone and the iPad are not the same as the photos program on the Mac - the features I need that you demoed are on the Mac ONLY
This is the best tech support youtube video I've ever seen for pace, clarity, and usefulness of information. My iMessage is now working as it should. Thanks!!!!
