Updates now available for iOS, watchOS and tvOS.
Back up and restore. Eliminate software as the problem.
My XR works fine with the car, and other Bluetooth items.
I had a brainwave last night..... When I got the Xr I cloned it from the 7, and of course, the phone's name came across, so it now has two phones with the same name registered. So I've changed the name, will remove both of them and then start afresh this morning. Hopefully that will cure it.
Oooh, interesting, lets see what happens!
I have a real issue with my new iPhone Xr, as it keeps disconnecting the Bluetooth in my car. My previous iPhone 7 was fine, but this one just disconnects. I have a 2017 Mini Clubman, and I spent an hour with a BMW tech today and he's convinced it's the phone not the car, as we tried 4 or 5 different phones, and mine was the only one that kept dropping out....
So, any ideas folks?
Does the car not have Apple CarPlay?
Do you know if it is possible to reimport a live phot that has been separated back into Apple Photos?I’m not sure about Lightroom, but neither Aperture nor Capture One deals with Live Photo’s in my experience.
Live Photo’s appear to be two files, an image and a movie file. They get separated by non-Photos applications, in my experience.

Thanks, but i am hoping to find a way to manage them in bulk.You can send them via WhatsApp which converts them into gifs, I think.
Anyone seen the new announcements from WWDC?
New Mac Pro
XDR Pro Display (6k, 1600 nits peak brightness, P3 and 10-Bit)
iOS13
iPadOS
WatchOS6
MacOS Catalina
Seems to be a lot of incremental changes or really expensive releases. Pro Display looks neat but £1000 for a stand on top of the £5000 screen? Damn!
Interesting news nonetheless
I like the new multi-tasking capabilities, and the fact that they seem to be spinning off iPadOS from iOS, but what about the mouse? No mention of it. Maybe next time?
And then there's the bit about "You don't need to sync in iTunes any more, just use Finder". What about us Windows users?
Though it’s not just a stand. I believe it’s not a compulsory purchase so you don’t have to buy it, I hope that brings some relief to you. Are there any other things you don’t want to buy?I think anyone who thinks it's acceptable to charge £1000 for a stand let alone those that will buy it need a lobotomy!
Mouse support:There's some Apple Blogger claiming that Mouse Support is there in "accessibility" options but if it was I think they would be shouting about it.
The new gestures, etc added point toward a touch rather than mouse future, I can't see them doing it except for very limited cases like already exist with Citrix / Remote Desktop mouse support.

This is outside my area of expertise but according to https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/201...e-apples-new-mac-pro-and-the-pro-display-xdr/ :Dell's 8k Ultrasharp Premierecolour is just under £2000 cheaper and comes with a stand!
Mouse support:

The apparently bonkers price of the stand (which is not just a stand ).
I’ve had this problem between 2 UK iPhones in UK!. I can’t say I know the complete answer but it is to do with iMessage which I think iPhones will always prefer if available (it’s free so makes sense). You can turn off iMessage (search “Messages” in Settings) and then texts will go by SMS. I’m not sure if the same has to be done on the Aussie phones.So, another question for you Apple phone geniuses (I've looked it up and apparently that IS the accepted plural!)... but first, the preamble...
a) We came to meet some Australian friends this weekend. They have Ozzie SIM cards in their phones, so all the usual "better to text than call" chat beforehand. We were a bit later than expected getting to their hotel and they'd gone out, so I sent Helen a text... then another. No reply. After a bit, another text, no reply. My phone was saying the texts were "Delivered". Eventually we met up by actually phoning them; they had seen none of the texts. So Helen sent me a text from her iPhone, and it came through. I replied, and it didn't arrive. How confusing!
b) Later that evening, we got a Facetime call to say that when they arrived back at their hotel, the text messages all turned up, "airdropped" from their (wifi only) iPad. Even more bizarre, but it did give me a clue that maybe Apple's iMessage had got involved.
c) This morning my wife tried to send Helen a text from her Doro feature phone... and it wouldn't send. No idea why.
d) Helen later confirmed that she has data completely switched off on her iPhone, unless on wifi; probably sensible to avoid humungous data charges by accident.
So, to the question... any idea what's going on, and why my iPhone can't send a text to Helen's iPhone?
So I've an old 1st gen iPad pro with a cracked screen. It still works fine and I've replaced screens on other tablets so I'm happy with that. But with regards to the touch ID if anyone has done this before, is it just a case of reusing the original home button and cabling that comes with it to ensure touch ID will still work?
Additionally...Note that the Home Button installed in your original display assembly is paired to the iPad's logic board, and will need to be removed and transferred to the new display to retain Touch ID functionality.
Before beginning, check to see if your replacement part has a daughterboard adhered to its back. If so, this guide will work for you. Otherwise, you will need to transfer the board from the old display to the new one. Transferring the daughterboard from the original to replacement unit will require specialty microsoldering equipment and we recommend DIY users source a new part rather than attempt the procedure.

Thank you, this is a very helpful reply. I'll pass that on to her.iMessage needs data, if data is turned off by your friend the iMessages will queue and wait for WiFi (they will also go to any other iOS device signed into the same user ID, hence on the iPad).
If your friend wants to deactivate data she must first turn iMessage off while having a data connection (WiFi will do).
Is your wife using the friend’s full mobile number including the country code? +61 iirc.

iOS 13 and iPadOS 13 beta are now available OTA with the dev profile. I’m amazed at just how good it is on the iPad Pro.
its like a completely new tablet.
