Today's reports include these: European DNS started with youth protection settings, Zoom cuts 1.300 jobs, EU still allows built-in batteries in smartphones and tablets, Apple apps soon on webOS devices, new games and retro offers for the Switch featured in a Nintendo Direct, and more. In this issue I will show you which Apple and tech news I particularly noticed in calendar week 6 of 2023. That's why it's time again for a Sir Apfelot newsreel this Friday. The year is slowly but surely moving forward, and so is the tech world. So if you have the receipt handy, take it with you. It makes sense to have proof at hand that it really is your Apple smartphone. You should call or stop by the nearest Apple Store. If you have not activated the 'Delete data' option, then your iPhone will not be deleted after the ten unsuccessful unlock attempts, but it will not be ready for use either. But a small all-clear: the option described is deactivated by default and must be switched on manually. If the tenth is not correct then all content and settings will be erased from the iPhone.

Because if under Settings -> Touch ID & Code or by Settings -> Face ID & Code at the very bottom the 'Clear data' option is activated, you only have nine or ten attempts. On iOS and iPadOS you should also not enter the wrong unlock code too often. Mac models with a T2 security chip have the option of using iCloud recovery, FileVault recovery and similar measures.Ĭleared after ten attempts: Wrong unlock code on iPhone and iPad If all 30 attempts are wrong, the Secure Enclave closes. If these also fail, then there are ten more attempts for FileVault recovery mode. So if you still think of the right password for your macOS account, you can make ten more attempts in the recoveryOS to use. But then you don't necessarily have to walk the Walk of Shame to the Apple Store, you have one or two other options. It should be noted that entering the same incorrect password several times does not count as a new attempt. On Apple computers with Apple Silicon and Secure Enclave or on Mac models with T2 chip the following data apply to the number of incorrect passwords entered and the resulting waiting times.
