Meaning of iPad Air 2 message while curating photo No problem, just a simple question I haven’t seen answered here after searching for over an hour. While my iPad Air 2 is curating photos I get the message, "Keep device locked and connected to power". Does "keep device locked" mean that mean I should turn my device off while curating is in progress?

Pop up won’t go away I have this pop up asking if I want to allow this device to access photos and videos when I plugged it into my computer. I then must have unplugged before clicking don’t allow and now the pop up will not go away or allow me access to use my phone in any manner. Not sure how to go about fixing this. I can’t even turn the phone off because it won’t let me use the slide bar at the top.

Disruptive Continuity Camera Popup on iPhone I just updated my M2 MacBook Air to Ventura (macOS 13) and my iPhone 12 Pro Max to iOS 16.1. Ever since then, I keep getting these disruptive pop-up messages on my iPhone that I suspect are related to the new Continuity Camera function. Every time these messages pop up, they knock me out of whatever app I was using on my iPhone back to the home screen, which has really messed up some of my important workflows. I don't know how to stop these from popping up. The message says: Connected to M2 MacBook Air You can disconnect to remove this iPhone from the Mac camera list. It then has a "Pause" and a "Disconnect" button underneath the message. However it pops up on the screen for only a couple of seconds and then goes away before I can click on either button. I've attached a screenshot showing the message. Any suggestions on how to eliminate this message from constantly popping up and causing whatever app I happen to be in to exit?
