No Comments on How to unlock my iphone 6+ after factory reset in Iran?

I’m living in Iran and Apple does not provide direct support here. I had to factory reset my phone due to some problems and after that my sim card is not recognized any more. It seems (some service guy said) that the phone is locked to some operator abroad (I don’t know which, I don’t […]

So how can it analyze those low-res photos and giving the correct prediction? I have two guesses: Don’t care, just analyze what is on the device. (I don’t really believe this is the case as the face detection is too accurate to be believed that they w, the high res photo is download on-demand if the user clicks it.

Seemingly every week Chrome will lose it’s location permission and require me to re-check its box in the Privacy settings. Did I do something to make the exception temporary? Does it reset when Chrome updates? Can I say I permanently trust it?

Tags and copied the .pbundle / sparsebundle file onto it. I thought of this as a "nuclear" option sure to work. But now, formatted it as HFS, it won't recognize the network drive. So I bought another 6TB drive, So I made a home-brewed linux / raspberry pi time machine more or less like this. I ended up with time machine data stored on an ext4 partiti, so it's full of something. But when I tried to use that drive as a source from Migration Assistant after my mac was wiped by apple repair, the mac still doesn't see this new drive as a time machine source. What should I do? How should I recover my data?
