iOS 26.7.1 Fixes Vulnerability Used in Targeted Attacks‎

iOS 26.7.1, iPadOS 26.7.1, macOS Tahoe 26.7.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.8.1 address a major vulnerability that Apple believes was used against a small number of people. Apple's security support pages say there was a CoreGraphics out-of-bounds write issue that could be exploited with a maliciously crafted file, allowing for arbitrary code execution. It has been fixed with improved bounds checking. Apple says the flaw was exploited in an "extremely sophisticated attack" on targeted individuals running older versions of iOS. Apple's latest operating systems don't appear to be affected, and the iOS 27.0.1, iPadOS 27.0.1, and macOS Golden Gate 27.0.1 updates that came out today have no published CVE entries. While the attack wasn't widespread, if you're still running a version of iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS Tahoe, or macOS Sequoia, you should install the new updates as soon as possible. Now that the vulnerability is public, it could be further exploited against users who aren't protected.Related Roundups: iOS 26, iPadOS 26Related Forum: iOS 26This article, "iOS 26.7.1 Fixes Vulnerability Used in Targeted Attacks" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Releases iOS 27.0.1 With Face ID Bug Fix‎

Apple today released iOS 27.0.1, the first update for the iOS 27 update that came out two weeks ago. iOS 27.0.1 can be downloaded over the air by going to Settings > General > Software Update. Apple has also released iPadOS 27.0.1 and visionOS 27.0.1 updates, as well as iOS and iPadOS 26.7.1 updates for devices not updated to iOS and iPadOS 27. According to Apple's release notes, iOS 27.0.1 addresses an issue that could cause Face ID not to work properly on the iPhone 18 Pro. Some iPhone 18 Pro users have complained that authentication can fail to work for things like unlocking a locked app. In some cases, the device freezes up and then reboots. Other users have seen a "‌Face ID‌ is Not Available" message when attempting ‌Face ID‌ setup, and others have experienced issues with the Require Attention for ‌Face ID‌ setting. Apple's release notes for the update are below. This update provides bug fixes for your iPhone, including fixes for the following issues: - iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max may unexpectedly restart when Face ID fails to authenticate - A color artifact may appear on photos captured at 2x under certain lighting conditions at f/1.48 on a small number of iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max devices - Opening Notification Center and Control Center simultaneously may cause the touchscreen to become unresponsive The ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ models have an infrared camera that's under the display for the first time, but it's unclear if the hardware has been causing a problem. Apple said last week that it would be able to address the ‌Face ID‌ bugs with a software update. While the iOS 27.0.1 update has multiple ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ bug fixes, it is available for all iPhones able to run ‌iOS 27‌.

12 New Things to Expect From Apple This October‎

October will be an especially busy month for Apple this year, with the company set to release the iPhone Duo, both iOS 27.1 and iOS 27.2, and a new Mac Studio configuration with 512GB of RAM. In addition, up to six more Apple products may be unveiled next month, such as new iPad mini, HomePod mini, and Apple TV 4K models. Below, we have outlined 12 new things to expect from Apple this October. Confirmed iPhone Duo: The foldable iPhone Duo launches on Friday, October 23. Pre-orders begin Friday, October 16 at 5 a.m. Pacific Time. iOS 27.1: Apple said the iPhone Duo will ship with iOS 27.1, so the software update is expected to be released before October 23. iOS 27.2: Apple jumped ahead to an iOS 27.2 beta because iOS 27.1 is dedicated to the iPhone Duo. iOS 27.2 adds support for the five additional Siri AI languages that Apple promised would be coming in October, so accordingly we can expect iOS 27.2 to be released at some point during the month. Mac Studio (512GB RAM): While the new Mac Studio with M5 Max and M5 Ultra chips was released last week, Apple said a high-end configuration with the M5 Ultra and 512GB of RAM will be available in late October. Rumored iPad mini 8: OLED display, A20 Pro chip, landscape front camera, redesigned speaker system, and water-resistant design. 24" iMac: M6 chip and new color options. 14" MacBook Pro: M6 chip. 14" and 16" MacBook Pro models with OLED displays: A major MacBook Pro redesign in late 2026 with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, an OLED display, a touch screen, a Dynamic Island, and a thinner design. Apple TV 4K (4th Generation): A19 or A19 Pro chip, an increased 8GB to 12GB of RAM for Apple Intelligence and Siri AI support, an Apple-designed N1 chip with Wi-Fi 7 support, and an updated Siri Remote. A leak revealed the new Apple TV will look the same as the existing model. HomePod mini 2: Newer chip, Siri AI support, improved sound quality, Apple's N1 chip with Wi-Fi 7 support, a second-generation Ultra Wideband chip, and new color options, including pink and green. No major design changes. Home hub: An all-new Apple smart home hub featuring Siri AI, a 6-inch to 7-inch square display, an A18 chip or newer for Apple Intelligence, FaceTime, and more. A new operating system will feature clock faces, widgets, and more. There will be a tabletop version with a speaker base and a wall-mounted version. homeOS: Apple's smart home hub is expected to run an all-new operating system that may be named homeOS, according to trademark filings.This article, "12 New Things to Expect From Apple This October" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

AirPods 5 vs. AirPods Pro 3 Buyer's Guide: Which Should You Buy?‎

Apple's AirPods 5 bring Active Noise Cancellation to its $129 earbuds for the first time. The $149 AirPods 5 with Wireless Charging Case add longer battery life, volume controls on the stems, and a case speaker for Find My. The AirPods Pro 3 cost $249. The ‌AirPods 5‌ arrived in September 2026, a year after the AirPods Pro 3. They continue to narrow the feature gap between the devices, but the Pro model still offers a sealed in-ear fit, substantially better noise cancellation, and hearing and workout features. Our guide helps to answer the question of how to decide which of these sets of AirPods is best for you. ‌AirPods 5‌ (2026) ‌AirPods 5‌ with Wireless Charging Case (2026) ‌AirPods Pro 3‌ (2025) Open-ear fit without ear tips Open-ear fit without ear tips In-ear fit with foam-infused silicone ear tips in five sizes Optical in-ear sensor Optical in-ear sensor Skin-detect sensor Open-ear Active Noise Cancellation Open-ear Active Noise Cancellation In-ear Active Noise Cancellation; up to 3x more effective than ‌AirPods 5‌ Force sensor controls Force sensor controls with volume swipe Touch controls with volume swipe Hearing Test, Hearing Aid, Hearing Protection, Automatic Conversation Boost, and Loud Sound Reduction Heart rate sensing during workouts Up to 4 hours of listening time on one charge with ANC Up to 5 hours of listening time on one charge with ANC Up to 8 hours of listening time on one charge with ANC Up to 20 hours of listening time with ANC using the case Up to 22 hours of listening time with ANC using the case Up to 24 hours of listening time with ANC using the case Case charges via USB-C Case charges via USB-C, Apple Watch charger, or Qi charger Case charges via USB-C, Apple Watch charger, Qi charger, or MagSafe charger Speaker in case for ‌Find My‌ Speaker in case for ‌Find My‌ Second-generation Ultra Wideband chip in case for Precision Finding with a compatible iPhone Charging case is 1.97 inches (50.1 mm) wide Charging case is 1.97 inches (50.1 mm) wide Charging case is 2.45 inches (62.2 mm) wide and has a lanyard loop Starts at $129 Starts at $149 Starts at $249 The ‌AirPods 5‌ with Wireless Charging Case are the best choice for most buyers. For $20 more than the base model, you get an extra hour of listening time per charge with ANC, volume swipes on the stems, wireless charging, and a speaker that makes a misplaced case easier to find. Choose the $129 model if the lowest price matters most and you are content with its shorter battery life and USB-C-only charging case. However, the ‌AirPods Pro 3‌ are worth the extra $100 over the higher-end ‌AirPods 5‌ if noise cancellation is your priority and you prefer a snug in-ear fit. Apple says they provide up to three times as much ANC as the ‌AirPods 5‌, since the ear tips create a physical seal. Their eight-hour listening time per charge is particularly useful on long journeys. In our hands-on testing, the ‌AirPods 5‌ sounded muddier than the Pro 3, particularly in the lower midrange. The ‌AirPods Pro 3‌ are also the clear choice if you want their hearing health features or heart rate sensing during workouts without relying on an Apple Watch. Their charging case adds Precision Finding, too. If you dislike silicone ear tips, the ‌AirPods 5‌ let you keep the open-ear fit while getting nearly all of the everyday listening features shared by the Pro model. AirPods frequently receive discounts from third-party retailers, which can narrow the ‌AirPods Pro 3‌'s $100 list-price premium over the $149 ‌AirPods 5‌. Check the latest prices using our Deals roundup before buying.Related Roundups: AirPods 5, AirPods Pro 3Tag: AirPods Pro 3Buyer's Guide: AirPods (Buy Now), AirPods Pro (Neutral)Related Forum: AirPodsThis article, "AirPods 5 vs. AirPods Pro 3 Buyer's Guide: Which Should You Buy?" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Ordered to Pay $5.7 Billion Over Haptic Patent Infringement‎

Apple has been ordered to pay $5.7 billion in damages to Taction Technology after a federal jury found it had infringed two of the haptics company's patents, reported CNBC over the weekend. Taction sued Apple in 2021, arguing that Apple's Taptic Engine in the company's Apple Watches and iPhones uses its inventions without proper license or authority. Apple initially had the case dismissed in 2023, but the Federal Circuit later revived it. The jury trial began September 14, and seven jurors deliberated for two days after proceedings concluded. They returned on Friday and delivered the verdict in favor of Taction. "We're happy the jury found for Taction and vindicated its patent rights," the company's lead counsel, Lance Yang, told CNBC. "Taction waited five and a half years for this case to get to trial, so it was a long time coming." Apple said it intends to appeal the decision. "While we thank the jury for their consideration, we strongly disagree with today's verdict and the damages awarded, which are entirely unsupported by the facts," Apple told CNBC in a statement. "Apple's Taptic Engine is fundamentally different from Taction's technology, which Taction's own testing of Apple's products confirmed during trial. Apple does not use Taction's technology, and we will appeal."In Friday's verdict at the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California, jurors did not find that Apple had infringed the patents willingly.Tag: Apple LawsuitsThis article, "Apple Ordered to Pay $5.7 Billion Over Haptic Patent Infringement" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
