passcode prompt when new feature came out to go bck to oldpascode

ios since the 72 hour feature to go back to old passcode dropped i have beeen continually getting prompts that i changed passcode on ipad and phone and i never changed it. i cant refactory set it because it locks me out and isnt logged into icloud so no recovery process works and doesnt remember old passcode even if you do change it. how ever if you ever have to wrangle and icloud accnt back you need number and PASSCODE. this being investigated on our devices for 2 weeks now still no update but was told there is known issue and i need it fixed before new ipads drop afraid i wont be able to log in . last time i refactory set ipad took 5 hours to get back in.

not sure whats up with mac m series chips with side channel flaw that cant be patched cos you cant patch a chip and issues with java 8 and up. i hardly ever used my mac mini cant update without error on iphone or ipads or factory reset the mac without failed attempts, i only turn it on to do updates when released since i took it up to Sonoma at moment .


even reset all settings start that passcode prompt. it should be an optional feature for those of us who write all our changes down in a note book i cant use advanced data protection till this gets fixed! everyones devices in house have issue. cannot wait till 17 era is gone! this is the worst issue yet to date i am literally stuck cant even troubleshoot other issue cos i cant os reinstall or factory reset due to passcode issue and sure as heck dont want locked out of phone!
