I just updated my iPad Pro 10.7 and all apps and data is gone. How do I sync apps and data to iPad OS 17? Thanks!

I have recently just completely reset my iPad 4th Gen to give it a bit of clean but when I try and restore the iCloud backup it just comes up saying verification failed. I've put in the correct Apple ID details and then the verification code it sends to my phone, that seems to get accepted, it then comes up saying it may take a few minutes to set up my Apple ID and then just stays like that for about 5 mins and then just says Verification Failed with and ok button. I'm 99% sure its not my wifi but also connected to my phone to use my mobile data instead and then same happens. It's as up to date as it can be (iOS 10.3.3) and was working fine before I erased the content and settings and now I'm stuck. Any ideas anyone?

We are currently working on a web application for our own company and have completed it. I would like to release it with a client certificate attached. However, after trying various methods, the certificate is not recognized by iPad Chrome and cannot be opened. (The error screen said "ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR"). The certificate is installed on the device and can be opened on safari without any problem. I would like to know if iPad Chrome is not able to open sites with ssl certificates, or if there is any way to do this.

I have an ipad connected to a second screen with a mouse, i need to set appearance of the pointer programmatically with swift, what i try to achieve is for the device i need to set appearance 1 for the pointer for the screen 2 i need to set appearance 2 i can't find an api to do that, but may be private APIs or frameworks available that could potentially provide access to such functionality ? the application won't be published on appstore it's for restricted usage Any idea please ?

We are no longer getting a different value for trueHeading vs magneticHeading with the new ipad pro 6th generation M2 device. The M1 iPad Pro works and other iPad and iPhone devices work fine. Apple told one of our users that we need to update our app - but we did only 4 weeks ago. Has something changed to the use of the CLHeading api for the M2 chip?

My application which is working fine when installed freshly to the device, but in case the iOS version is upgraded app is crashing. In this case iOS version is updated from 16.4 to 16.5. Below is the segment of the crash report.

I have a friend who uses an iPad (5th gen), running iPad OS 16.3.1. We actually have an app published for years, but for some reason, he couldn't find the app on App Store on that iPad. Did anyone face the same case before, is there any clue how did this happen?

In our application, we are using the browser's indexedDB storage for offline data storage. It has been working as expected in Windows/Mac Chrome browsers. However, we have encountered an issue with iPad Chrome where we are unable to use more than 900+ MB of data. We need to support storage of up to 5 GB. Interestingly, Safari on the iPad allows us to use up to 100+ GB (on the 128 GB iPad Pro variant) with user approval through a memory extension popup. Is there any way to achieve similar functionality in Chrome? Additionally, we have observed that after removing data from the indexedDB, the memory usage in the application does not decrease. For example, if I upload 900 MB of data to the indexedDB and then proceed to remove it, I verify that the indexedDB is empty. However, when checking the storage usage on the iPad, it still shows that 900 MB of memory is being used by Chrome. It seems that the iPad's operating system does not free up the space after deleting data from the indexedDB. Is there another option or approach to free or release this memory from the browser's app usage? We have attempted to remove the data from the indexedDB, but the memory is not released. Clearing the browser cache partially releases the memory, but we would like to handle this directly through JavaScript.

I did some researches but could not find out any Apple documentation about this issue, do you know if the iPad support step counting or not? If not, do you have any alternative to do step counting on iPad? Thank you so much.

A customer reports that devices are coming out of single-app mode and becoming unresponsive. They manage the MDM (AirWatch) and report that some devices leave single app mode over and show a blank white square on the home screen, almost like a widget or OS message, but without content. This mostly happens overnight, the only resolution is to remove the enclosure and physically reboot the device. Our application doesn't have any widgets and we looking for any ideas on what may be causing this issue.

I am developing many products and services to help children learn to speak Tamil as a second language. As part of this platform, I am publishing illustrated children's books that are distributed via Amazon as well as from my website. I am developing a companion reader app for an interactive digital version on the iPad. The books will be narrated on demand, and children will be able to click on words and images to hear Tamil being spoken. I am creating this content for the printed and digital versions. I am writing new stories, and am working with authors/publishers to adapt/translate their existing books for use in this platform. When the app is first installed, the content for one free book is downloaded for the user, so that there is a book to try the app. Additional books can be purchased individually or as 'packs'. I apologize if this background seems excessive, but I want to set the stage for my questions. 1. Customers can buy printed and digital books. Can I put in information about how they can buy the printed book in my app? 2. Does all purchasing content have to happen outside the app, or can I have new books(digital version) bought both as in-app purchases and as direct purchases outside the app? This is important, as I want to provide hard copy buyers the ability to get free or discounted access to the digital version - and this can be done when they buy the books from my website. At the same time, I want to provide an easy means for the user to buy content via in-App purchase if they want.

UIView.appearance().semanticContentAttribute = .forceRightToLeft If I am applying collectionview semanticContentAttribute is forceRightToLeft for Arabic language in iPad, there is an issue to scrolling to first cell. In actual, it should be scroll to last cell.

Hey all! Im trying to use my Ipad with my Xcode but its not working. Its saying "Failed to prepare device for development".Ive seen on sites where folks have said to reboot devices but thats not working for me. Also there is no 16.5 simulator that I can use for testing as well. Does anyone have any suggestions, trying to correct an issue within my code so I can send it for review. Blessings

We created iPhone app for portrait mode only. App is running fine in iPhone. but when we run the same app in iPad some time we are getting rotation button along with scale button. Rotation button is rotating app in landscape and our app is not support so UI is look bad. We want to disable rotation button forever. We search for setting which can be used enable/disable this rotation button but did not found. Check attached screen shot for reference.

How come keyboard shortcuts associated to toolbar items do not show up when you hold down the command key? import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack { Image(systemName: "globe") .imageScale(.large) .foregroundStyle(.tint) Text("Hello, world!") Button { } label: { Text("Tap Me!") } .keyboardShortcut("o", modifiers: .command) } .padding() .toolbar { ToolbarItem { Button { } label: { Image(systemName: "bolt") } .keyboardShortcut("k", modifiers: .command) } } } } } See screenshot. The shortcut for "Tap Me!" is being shown but not the one for the toolbar item. Am I doing something wrong or this is just not supported yet in SwiftUI? If that's the case, that seems to be a significant omission.

Hi, I'd like to inquire about the LiDAR sensor specifications for the iPhone Pro and iPad Pro. We are currently developing a 3D scanner app for construction sites and need to ensure that LiDAR does not cause any damage to electrical or telecommunication devices. I understand that LiDAR is a class 1 laser and considered safe for eye exposure. However, I'm concerned about its potential impact on electronics, such as noise or interference. For instance, could the LiDAR interfere with a fire alarm that uses a photon diode sensor, potentially leading to false alarms? I assume that fire alarms should have some form of shielding, but I am uncertain about this. In my research, I came across some information about LiDAR specifications in this discussion thread: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/131013. Additionally, there were some relevant blogs discussing the type of sensor it uses: https://www.techinsights.com/ja/node/33570. I also reached out to other manufacturers, as I believe ToF sensors might have similarities, but unfortunately, I haven't received a definitive answer yet. Any assistance on this matter would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, When I try to install the iPadOS 17 public beta, my 32GB iPad says that it needs 13GB free to install the update! Is there a way to update to the beta without freeing up so much space? This is my main iPad so I don't want to reset it, but can I do it using Finder etc? Bye!
