Revision Sequence

Critical app is rejecting password on new Apple iPhone. Also need to revise device name that worked carrier transferred over without checking with me to see if I wanted to revise it. (Keeping same email as Apple ID.)

Which should I do first?

Change the new device’s name?
Address the balky app accepting my login on new device?

iPhone 12 Pro Max

Settings app crashed when I touched my Apple ID name. Hey guys, today I was trying to link my iPhone XS to my pc windows using iTunes. It was the first time I used my iPhone with that pc. Anyway I logged in and my iPhone asked the verification for that pc, but I didn’t realise that I didn’t allow that procedure. Then I tried to tap on my Apple ID and the setting app crashed continually, does it mean that someone tried to hack my iPhone? anyway I managed to change my password and i restarted my phone settings, now it’s working properly, do you think I should be more worried about it? Or was it just a bug? I was using iOS 13 beta.

IOS15 Apple ID corruption after install Apple ID corruption after install , what I mean by that is when you go into settings and you click on the Apple ID for name phone number email and you try to edit to either remove a telephone number or add a new telephone number before there used to be the choice on the telephone number for it to be either a voice call or a text for authentication now you have removed the force call option. this is huge since I got locked out of my phone almost a year ago to the day and because it was hacked via the Sim card the only way I got back into my phone was because of the voice call. has Apple purposely removed us or is it just another glitch within the new upgrade? There’s several other issues I’m having with the iOS 15 but I will address them separately

Reset AppleID password not working Tried to use iforgot.apple.com from my PC to reset my password. Entered my mobile number and received a message on my iPhone to "Allow" which I did, but no further instructions, next steps or re-direct to reset a password happened. This reset is for one of my old AppleID's As my iPhone uses a new AppleID, would this be the issue? After Allowing, what was supposed to happen? How do I reset AppleID passwords when the iforgot process fails?

For app issues, you may need to contact the app developer.

*”worked carrier” should be “wireless carrier” — AI is cracked!
