Hi.

I think there were two things I had to change. One was screen recognition, and the other was something like apply to all apps. I don’t know if the second thing was needed, but I’m just thankful it worked.

Hi Kevin,

good to know you finally had your issues resolved after all of that hassle.

Can you let us know those  settings you had to change as this may well be of great assistance to others?

Cheers,

Tony

    Hi Kevin, a while back, I had to reset my password as well. But I
    didn't have that issue with resetting it on my iPhone. I'm sorry
    that you had issues resetting yours. But I'm glad all is well now
    with your iPad.

        Hi.

        I had to change my password to my Apple account due to someone
        trying to hack it. All went well with my old iPhone. I thought
        it would be the same with my iPad. I couldn’t have been more
        wrong. You’d think Apple would make sure their way of doing
        things was accessible. Well, it’s pretty much not. I looked
        for the edit box where I’d enter in the code from my iPhone,
        but it wasn’t there. I was on the phone with Apple
        Accessibility for several hours, and nobody had much luck with
        it. Finally, someone recommended turning screen recognition
        on. At first, I didn’t think it worked, but I did notice some
        image things along with a field where text could be entered.
        Problem with this is each number of the code is in its own
        edit area, and for a number of times, it didn’t work. I had
        somewhere to go, and was about to put it aside, when I tried
        again, and it worked. Now, you’d think that was all there was
        to it, but nope. Screen recognition scrambled my settings
        screen, and the Apple guy who helped me couldn’t figure out
        what was wrong. I was pretty worn out, and didn’t realize I
        was thinking of some Android ways to move the focus around. In
        the end I made an appointment at the genius bar, and went
        there early today. The woman helping me was as stumped as I
        was, but I found I think two settings that needed to be
        changed. Now it works as well as ever, but I pray I don’t have
        to do anything with changing my Apple password again. In the
        end, I was at the Apple store for about 4 hours, because after
        fixing my iPad, I went to work getting an iPhone 13 up and
        running. I’ll tell you all my thoughts on that phone in
        another message, but just to mention, it’s working fine.

        Just sharing my past couple of days.

        Have a blessed day and don’t work too hard.

        Kevin and Lily the shrimpy lover
