Use Automator to delete folders with specific names
Hello, I am new to Automator and have been trying to set up a simple automation that will go to a specific folder and delete folders contained within that folder that start with a specific name. I use Get Specific Finder items and navigate to the folder. Then use Filter Finder Items and list the folder names I want to delete. Then use Get Selected Finder Items & finally I use Move Finder Items to Trash. I get green lights up until the Move Finder Items to Trash. At that point I get the error message "Move Finder Items to Trash was not supplied with the requested data.". Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

The new updates bludgeon user experience
So I have been having some issues with iOs 18. mostly regarding bluetooth. I have airpods that tend to live downstairs in my house but half the time I go to play music through my speakers, it connects to my airpods which are downstairs in their case. Just now, I was fully connected to a separate pair of Sony headphones and after leaving my mail app while listening to a podcast, the podcast starts playing through my speakers. The other thing that is making me extremely irritated with this update is the predictive texting and the automatic text correction. I will have written exactly what I want and it will still be replaced or if I wrote a word that is super close to one word with only one letter incorrect, it will change it to a word that I rarely use and changes multiple letters for this new word. I am frankly extremely unsat with apple for numerous years but this update is really making me consider switching. I initally picked the iphone because it is supposed to be convenient and easy to use. It is now irritating and unreliable. I also have an issue with facetime on the new mac update. I am unable to watch a movie on one sode of the screen and facetime my friend and have the sound play in my sony headphones, but it used to work with the previous update.

Passwords app
Why? I don’t like having a bunch of apps especially new ones that are unnecessary. Can we at least have the option to delete the app without losing all the data in the app? Like can we still have the section in settings for passwords. This is ridiculous

Find My keeps crashing causing my phone to freeze
After the new update IOS 18 and iOS 18.1, every time I find my, it exits out of the app, then ends up freezing my phone screen and crashing my phone. I have taken it to the Genius Bar once already and they couldn't solve my issue aside from resetting my phone settings, I have also deleted and redownloaded the app. Any other suggestions? I have an iPhone 13, only half of my storage is used, and my battery is great. Genius bar said there are no hardware issues present.

CGDisplayStreamCreateWithDispatchQueue returns NULL after 30 seconds
Our remote access application uses ScreenCaptureKit for capturing the screen in the user context and CGDisplayStream API as a fallback when running in the context of the Login Window. Environment: macOS 15.0; macOS 15.1 beta; Xcode 16 The application is authorized by the user for System Screen recording. The GUI process runs under the root user over the Login Screen. The calling thread gets stuck on CGDisplayStreamCreateWithDispatchQueue() for exactly 30 seconds. The method returns NULL afterward. The same code worked fine on Sonoma

PLZ HELP!!! Enrolled, Paid, but App Under Review for Over 2 Months
Not the kind of review we all went through to get enrolled. I was told the reason was that we did some abnormal action (turned the app from Active to Inactive, our bad, prob dev team was doing some test before launching). But it has been more than 2 months, we are really desperate. We removed the app off the platform to avoid affecting user experience (bugs are there but we can no longer update the app to fix). Marketing gotta be done, salaries gotta be paid, so we are hopeless looking for a solution. Anyone in the same situation or anyone knows a way we can do to fasten the review process? All we have to do is wait, but we don't know how long it will take so it's really clueless.

Safari 18.0.1 MacOS Sequoia 15.0.1 Issue when viewing tables
I have a website that uses tables for listing our certifications. A customer is complaining that on their browser, the contents of the tables are being viewed upside down. They should be showing vertically. This is not happening on any other browser that I have tested. Has anyone had this issue and what did you do to fix it. https://www.mccampbell.com/statement.php Thank you for your help. Much appreciated. Lynda

CMMovementDisorderManager
I am currently using the CMMovementDisorderManager to query tremor. Currently, The tremor is being calculated ~every 5 minutes, however for my use case I was hoping to get Tremor ~every 1 minute. I understand that the Manager "To preserve battery life, the manager doesn’t perform calculations in real time. Instead, it periodically and opportunistically analyzes the raw data, saving the results on the user’s device". However I am wondering if there are ways to optimize the device or certain permissions I can enable to ensure that I am giving the manager the greatest 'opportunity' to analyze the raw data.

iPhone screen time counting when iPhone switched off
Hello I updated my iPhone 13 to iOS 18 a few days ago and the last two nights, it indicated that my screen was on whilst I had actually switched my phone off for the night. Last night I made sure to close all apps before I switched it off but Screen Time still says that my screen was on. Is there a way to fix this so as to have screen time that actually corresponds to my screen time? I’ve seen other users experiencing the same problem but haven’t found a solution. Thanks!
