    How to get to Safari

    Safari will open to the last viewed site if that site was not shut down. So if you went to NBC and then didn’t leave the NBC site, that would be why your Safari opens to NBC.. If you want it to default to a search engine, like Google, select that search engine in settings.

    Ios Updates

    Are you sure you mean 18 and not 26? 18 is not much different than 17. 26 is the one with all the big changes.

    Would you buy a folding iPhone?

    Not sure about that. I bought my iPhone 16 Pro last year, outright. My carrier would have financed me but basically it would have been me paying for the full cost over time and being locked into a contract.until the phone was paid off, so 3 yrs. I had a 0% CC offer from my bank so didn’t use...

    Kindle trouble connecting to hotspot

    Again, no issues with this on my ipad when I use the hotspot from my iPhone 16 Pro so I do not believe its a “standard” or universal problem for the iPjone 16 but is an issue on your Kindle- Kindle doesn’t always want to work nice with a competitor’s product. Occasionally you need to refresh the...

    Kindle trouble connecting to hotspot

    I double checked my settings. As I said, I probably allowed the iPad to access the hot spot at one point but it is possible that I never did so when I got my most recent iPhone. And on my iPhone, the Hot Spot setting is not on, it obviously was when I first allowed it to occur but normally...

    Prices!!!

    The News programs in the US have been saying up to $200 per device because of what has to get imported that is in the iPhone (like the chips batteries) and where they are made. I doubt Apple eats the tariffs. We may find out this week, although the results won’t be immediate as Apple has been...

    Prices!!!

    That unpredictable thing is why I got a 16 Pro instead of waiting for the 17.. But I am in the US. Not sure how it would affect you at all.

    Transferring Music and Photos between a iPhone 16 and a Windows computer

    I used to just plug the iphoje into my laptop, right click and it transfered from the iphone to my laptop. I think I had Windows Device Manager or Apple Device Manager installed. Don’t remember the name, too long ago so I looked at Apple’s website and the instructions seem easy to me: Import...
