How to Use Spatial Audio on Beats Fit Pro

Spatial audio is a sonic feature of Beats Fit Pro that adds surround sound to Apple’s audio wearables. By utilizing dynamic head tracking, it brings a theater-like audio experience to the movie or video you’re watching, so that it seems as if the sound is coming from all around you.

Spatial audio uses the gyroscope and accelerometer in your ‌‌Beats Fit Pro‌‌ and iOS device to track the motion of your head and the position of your ‌iPhone/iPad‌, compares the motion data, and then maps the sound field to what’s happening on the screen even as you move your head or your device.

To take advantage of spatial audio on ‌‌Beats Fit Pro‌‌ earphones, you’ll need an iPhone 7 or later or one of the iPad models listed below.

iPad Pro 12.9‑inch (3rd generation) and later

iPad Pro 11‑inch

iPad Air (3rd generation)

iPad (6th generation) and later

iPad mini (5th generation) and later

You’ll also need iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 or later installed on your device.

How to Use WhatsApp on Mac Without a Connected iPhone

WhatsApp has rolled out multi-device support to all users on iOS and Android, allowing WhatsApp to be used on up to four linked devices without users needing to be connected via a smartphone.

Previously, the WhatsApp mobile app was required to authenticate an account used on another device, such as a computer, and used a QR code to link a user account to a web browser or desktop app. While that initial link is still required, the connected phone that has the WhatsApp app on it is no longer required once the link has been made.

iOS 15: How to Create a ‘Hide My Email’ Private Address

With iOS 15 and Hide My Email, you can create unique, random email addresses that forward to your personal inbox whenever you want to keep your personal email address private.

This is especially useful if you think that a business or website is likely to share your email address with ad agencies or other third-parties for marketing purposes. Providing them with a dummy address means you can delete the address at any time, ensuring any unsolicited emails don’t reach your inbox.

How to fix Facetime black screen on Mac

A Mac or MacBook both have a built-in webcam. The webcam will work with any app that can use it e.g, Microsoft Teams or Zoom but it is known as the Facetime camera and is meant to work with the app of the same name. Facetime, much like iMessage, works really well as a service but it does need to use the camera. Facetime calls generally do connect easily and immediately though you can expect a delay if you’re calling someone connected to a weak network

Terminal fix –Make sure the Facetime app is not open on your system before you try this fix. No other app that can use the webcam should be open.

How to fix Second hard drive not detected in Windows 10

A Windows 10 system can support multiple hard drives. Some systems, depending on the motherboard they have, can support an internal SSD and an internal HDD. Likewise, you can connect multiple external HDDs (or SSDs) to a system. A hard drive isn’t difficult to configure; it will connect over a simple USB port, it can work with either a USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port, and it’s plug & play. Windows 10 will automatically be able to detect it and install the right drivers for it. To access a hard drive, you can open File Explorer and it will be listed under This PC. You can copy and paste files to it as easily as you would to an internal drive.

Second hard drive not detected in Windows 10

A hard drive, regardless if it’s internally connected or externally connected, will be detected easily. You should hear the new hardware found sound when you connect it and there may be a few seconds of a wait while a driver for it is installed but the device will be accessible almost immediately.

Second hard drive not detected in Windows 10

If your second hard drive has not been detected in Windows 10, try the fixes below.

How to Downgrade From iOS 15 to iOS 14

If you’ve installed iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 through Apple’s developer program or the public beta now it’s been released, you may decide you want to downgrade because of usability or stability issues. Keep reading to learn how it’s done.

Apple usually only releases the public betas of ‌iOS and ‌iPadOS‌ once the developer versions are relatively stable. That said, Apple’s beta versions of its major software updates can be notoriously buggy, especially the early releases. You may find apps not working properly, poor battery life, device crashes, and features that don’t do what they’re supposed to. Fortunately, you can restore your iPhone or iPad to the previous version of iOS.

If you made an archived backup before you installed the beta, you can remove the ‌‌iOS 15‌ beta and restore the backup. If you didn’t make a backup, you can still downgrade, but you won’t be able to restore your device to its original state before you upgraded.

Also, if you’ve installed watchOS 8 on your Apple Watch, it’s important to note that you won’t be able to use it with your ‌‌iPhone‌‌ once you’ve gone back to iOS 14. And downgrading an Apple Watch to a previous version of watchOS can’t be done manually either – if you want to remove ‌‌watchOS 8‌‌, you’ll have to send your watch in to Apple.

How to Add a Co-Owner to Apple Card

Apple Card‌ enables couples to co-own a single ‌‌Apple Card‌‌, allowing them to build their credit score together. The process is similar to sharing an ‌Apple Card‌ with your teenager or friend but requires that you share your spouse’s annual income.

The following steps guide you through the process of adding a co-owner to your ‌Apple Card‌.

iOS 15: How to Invite Android Users to a FaceTime Call

In iOS 15 and iPadOS 15, you can enable anyone, even if they don’t have an Apple device, to join a FaceTime call with you by creating a link to a ‌FaceTime‌ conversation that can be shared anywhere.

Using this new link facility, friends and family members who do not have an Apple account can log into a ‌FaceTime‌ call with you using a web browser opened on any non-Apple device, whether that’s a Windows PC or an Android phone. This effectively makes ‌FaceTime‌ a platform-agnostic video service, although you do need to be an iOS or Mac user to start the ‌FaceTime‌ call and send the link. Here’s how it works in ‌iOS 15‌ and ‌iPadOS 15‌.
