Today I'm seeing this on all my devices:



I didn't add any new devices. I sometimes see this after I update the OS on a device, but that wasn't the case here. Additionally, the message is generic and says 'An iPad' (for example). Well, I have about 5 iPads.... All you can do is go to Settings from this notification. As I'm typing this, 3 more notifications like this came in.


Also, as I create this post I can't even select the image used above from Photos. I can see it in my Photos, but it won't let me select it. I had to instead export it to a file and select from there. I've been in the Apple ecosystem since iPhone 3GS. For the most part, my Apple products have just worked. Now....they drive me nuts. Nothing 'just works' and I'm beginning to loath my Apple products. Basic features are so buggy they are unusable. Video is Safari stops playing - after a reboot it starts working again. This is on a $2k MacStudio....I have to reboot every few days just to get simple web browsing to function. I have no malware...it's basically stock apps except for MS Office. No web plugins....nothing.

I really wish Apple would stop adding gimmicky features and just make basic stuff work.

Mac Studio (2022)
