My e-mail does no longer work with the new 13.2.3 iPadOS.
I have 2 mail accounts, one for gmail, wich works ok, and another one to a “private” server.
There is constantly a window popping up on my iPad wich says: The identity of “server-name” can not be verified.
This worked perfectly before upgrader, and i really need for this to work as before!
What can I do?
Is there any way at all to downgrade the IOS?
This new iOS and the one just before it screwed up my PHOTOS. I can not connect to an iMac anymore as itunes ONLY sees it. iPoto will not import photos off my iPhone no more. I used to be able to plug it in to my windows 10 PC and was able to Drag & Drop photos & movies. NOW I CAN’T. I get errors that is can’t read my device anymore. Same issue in iMac.
Apple is the WORST when they update. The ONLY way I can get my photos OFF my iphone is through Google Photos.
I can no longer open links they continually say cannot connect to server.
All devices that do NOT have the 13.2.2 update can still open links. What’s going on? I have done the following
1. Cleared history
2. Tried different browsers
3. Reset network connections
4. Reset
5. Hard reset
6. Turned off cookie blocking
7. Turned on and off JavaScript
8. Turned off pop up blockers
9. Turned off top level redirects
Make sure the devices are connected to the internet. You might try resetting network settings too, that can sometimes help.
Also check your router, restart the router and make sure it works to get online too.
Since update iPhone 11Pro doesn’t connect You Tube to the TV. Day before update – no problem. Watched something on the TV via YOU Tube app on iPhone.
Now..cant do it. Re booted 3 times, turned off Bluetooth, left it, turned it on again..all the things they say to do.
No connection.
I’ve noticed that since the last, or next to last update, iOS has caused photo markup to fail. I used to be able to make a note on a screen print on my iPad Pro, then save to Photos. Now it disappears once saved to Photos. This is another kick in the teeth from Apple. Is no one testing the existing functionality before releasing on the user community like a plague? I think this is more important than emojis. Extremely disappointed in Apple.
Apple Pencil crashed since the whole Bluetooth saga on the 13.0 iPadOS update. until today it is still not working! as an artist – it’s driving me crazy as I rely on it for my works for clients. Honestly wish that they could fix this software bug on the Bluetooth before I empty my bank for an tablet alternative for good.
Totally regretted updating it to 13. wish I could turn back to 12
The link for the iPhone 8 Plus is wrong.
Do you have the correct IPSW?
Use the 7 Plus link. (the 7 Plus and 8 Plus use the same IPSW file)
+1
Tis the season for bug fixes, just installed one on my MacBook for Catalina now my iPhone and iPad get one. Honestly I haven’t directly had issues myself other then the occasional background app completely crashing on just a couple of occasions. But overall, I haven’t been so impressed with Safari in iPad OS. In a few occasions the desktop version of a web site isn’t very good on Safari with iPad OS. Besides some text overlaps displaying I have noticed some sites when they display a desktop version respect only mouse clicks not touch. Especially controlling video playback with certain embedded players.
iPadOS updating STILL doesn’t work properly ! ! !
Booting up then immediately checking software update still wrongly says software is up to date when it isn’t.
If you then do other things on the device and THEN check for an update it shows and works OK.
(This time iOS updated correctly when checking immediately after booting up)
Already reported some time ago. Needs to be fixed
Thankfully this update seems to have finally fixed the iPadOS touchscreen delays and unresponsiveness that started with my upgrade to v.13.x
Time will tell if they resolved the frequent app crashing and the nearly daily hard reboots required to get the iPad Pro working properly. 13.x has been the buggiest iOS release Ive had the displeasure of using and its making me reconsider the whole apple environment.
I am living in a place where there’s no fibre connection right now. I am solely dependent on cellular. I browse using hotspots using another phone.
Mine is a iPhone 7 Plus and the latest update is 13.1.1. I am unable to install further updates. I will be moving back to my hometown by January 2019. Is it possible for me to update then?
