Apple is dropping hints about the upcoming AirPods Pro 3, generating excitement ahead of their anticipated launch. Recent findings from iOS code by MacRumors contributor Steve Moser indicate references to “AirPods Pro 3,” hidden within a headphone user interface framework. This suggests that Apple is preparing for a significant announcement in the near future. This is not an isolated incident; Apple has been subtly signaling the new model for some time.

Last month, they updated references for the second-generation AirPods Pro to include “AirPods Pro 2 or later,” despite no later model existing yet. It’s apparent that developments are taking place at Apple, and the emerging pattern hints at a possible release in the fall, aligning with rumors of a 2025 launch. The expected features of AirPods Pro 3 are noteworthy. A redesigned, potentially slimmer case akin to the AirPods 4, enhanced Active Noise Cancellation due to a more efficient audio chip, and exciting health tracking tools such as heart rate monitoring and temperature sensing are all on the rumor mill.

Additionally, there is speculation about real-time translation capabilities, which would be a groundbreaking feature if implemented successfully. With these breadcrumbs adding up, many believe that AirPods Pro 3 will be revealed in conjunction with the iPhone 17 series this coming September. Apple seems to be amplifying its efforts to inform users about what lies ahead. In other news, Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) is currently underway, with a keynote presentation that reveals significant updates across their software platforms, including the introduction of the “Liquid Glass” design language that will shape future iOS and macOS development.

This comprehensive redesign encompasses a slew of enhancements across multiple Apple devices.

Hello,

I wanted to bring to your attention an error I found in the link for the 15.3 update mentioned in the article. It appears that there are two “hh” at the beginning of the link, which seems to be a mistake. The correct link seems to be for the 15.4 update, which can be found on MacRumors.

Thank you for addressing this issue.

I recently encountered a full-screen ad on MacRumors for the first time, and I’m not sure if this has always been a feature or if it’s something new. While I dislike being negative and complaining, I understand that websites have expenses to cover, so I can appreciate the necessity for ads. However, I feel that full-screen ads are becoming outdated. They interrupt the browsing experience, and I believe many users may share this sentiment.

Seeing this ad just a couple of seconds after scrolling down the homepage was particularly bothersome for me. I want to clarify that I’m not considering boycotting MacRumors or anything drastic. It’s simply a minor annoyance that prompted me to start this thread to find out if anyone else feels similarly. After all, it’s possible that other users may also find these full-screen ads intrusive.

While I recognize the need for revenue, I can’t help but wonder if there are better advertising options that would be less disruptive. MacRumors is a site I enjoy, and I hope it continues to thrive without relying on ad formats that may not enhance the user experience. In the end, I’m curious to hear from other users: Do you find the full-screen ads annoying, or is it just me? It would be interesting to gauge how the community feels about this issue and whether it impacts our engagement with the site.

The forum is currently experiencing issues with updating both watched threads and the alert panel. Users have reported that even after revisiting any of the threads, new posts are not being properly indicated. The display for new posts remains the same, leading to confusion and frustration. Furthermore, alerts do not disappear after threads are checked.

This persistent notification problem has been observed across multiple browsers, including Firefox, Brave, and ungoogled-chromium, indicating it is an issue specific to the forum itself rather than an individual browser malfunction. Despite efforts to refresh pages or clear caches, the problems with post notifications and alert management continue. Users are finding that the system does not accurately reflect their activity within the threads, which undermines the forum’s functionality and user experience. This situation calls for prompt attention from the forum administrators to diagnose and rectify the technical glitches.

Clear and consistent notifications are essential for effective community engagement and would help restore confidence in the platform.

This discussion will likely remain active over the coming months, especially during the beta testing phase. The previous thread in the iOS 18 subforum had a notably longer lifespan, so it would be beneficial to sticky this thread to prevent duplicate discussions. A wide range of issues can be reported within this forum.

For instance, if you wish to delete one of your own posts, you can report it and request its removal. Similarly, if someone has edited a post to say “deleted,” you can also notify the moderators about this. Additionally, you can ask for a thread rename, request corrections to any typos, or seek assistance in moving or merging posts.

There are numerous common queries and requests that do not necessarily violate any rules. Essentially, any matter related to the management of posts or threads that an ordinary member cannot handle independently is something a moderator can potentially assist with. If you encounter such situations, do not hesitate to reach out for help.

This ensures that the forum remains organized and user-friendly for everyone involved. By utilizing this thread effectively, we can streamline processes and enhance the overall forum experience.

It’s time for a new discussion thread, everyone! To continue the conversation, let’s talk about how to embed a YouTube video in your posts. This process is straightforward.

To start, you will need the YouTube URL, which you can easily obtain by clicking on the Share button found beneath the video you want to share. Once you have the URL, you can embed it by using a specific code format. For example, you will format the URL you obtained before adding it to your post.

This allows others to view the video directly from your message without having to visit the YouTube site separately. If you need further clarification or instructions on how to find the Share button or to copy the URL correctly, feel free to ask. As we dive into this new thread, we can all share what we’ve been enjoying lately, whether it be music, movies, or various clips that have caught our attention.

Engaging in these topics can lead to some great recommendations and lively discussions. Remember to keep the conversation respectful and inclusive, as we all have different tastes and preferences. Let’s make this thread a fun and interesting space for sharing and learning what everyone is currently enjoying!

Looking forward to hearing all about what you’ve been listening to or watching!

Hello F1 enthusiasts,

Since the New Year has brought several news updates, I felt it was time to initiate a discussion thread for Formula 1 in 2025. Recent developments include several team launch announcements, with Ferrari already scheduled to unveil their car on February 19, 2025. The other teams—McLaren, Red Bull, Mercedes, Aston Martin, Alpine, Haas, Racing Bulls, Sauber, and Williams—have yet to finalize their launch dates. Alongside the team launches, General Motors has established its engine development company, signaling its interest in joining the F1 grid for 2026.

Let’s hope this endeavor proves more successful than past efforts like the Mastercard Lola. In positive news for fans, the Spa-Francorchamps circuit has extended its commitment to host Formula 1 events, confirming its status as one of the most beloved tracks on the calendar. The Belgian Grand Prix has secured a new contract, ensuring it will feature in the F1 calendar for four out of six years from 2026 to 2031. This is an exciting development for fans of the sport and the iconic venue.

As we look ahead to 2025 and beyond, it’s important to keep an eye on these updates and speculations. The new season promises to be thrilling for fans and teams alike, with new partnerships and contract renewals shaping the future of Formula 1 racing. Let’s dive into this exciting year together!

Running Kali Linux in Parallels on the same Mac has its perks and challenges. Many users appreciate the seamless integration, but it can be a mixed bag regarding the operating systems. One user remarked on how beautiful the interface looks but lamented the limitations of the operating system itself. For those requiring specific software, like Affinity Designer and Illustrator, staying on Windows may be necessary.

However, there’s hope for a transition to a MacBook if gamers can get their favorite titles running smoothly through Crossover or Parallels. Parallels is known for its efficiency, but as noted, Linux tends to be more lightweight compared to Adobe’s intensive suite. In discussions about aesthetics, one user highlighted a slick media player seen in the setup. Curiosity arose about whether this feature is built into Apple Music or if it’s a separate application, showcasing the interest in both functionality and style.

New Mac users often have questions about navigating their system. One individual sought advice on how to display their desktop while programs were open. They attempted the Command + F3 shortcut, only to find it merely shifted the applications to the top of the screen, providing a darker border around the workspace instead of showing the desktop. Frustrations can arise for those unfamiliar with Mac’s functionalities.

A helpful suggestion for capturing the screen is the Shift-Command-5 combination, which accesses the built-in screenshot and screen recording tools. As users dive deeper into Mac, these tips can ease the learning process and enhance their experience.

I thought it might be beneficial to create a general thread where we can share random thoughts, ideas, and personal updates that don’t necessarily fit into specific discussions. In light of federal laws, regulations, and Community Discussion guidelines, I invite you to share what’s on your mind.

Recently, I had the opportunity to attend a Naturalization Ceremony where forty-one individuals were welcomed as new American citizens. It was a significant event that highlighted the journey of these individuals as they embraced their new identities.

Reflecting on America’s history, it’s fascinating to note that the population back in 1776 was around 2.5 million. Fast forward to today, and that number has increased dramatically to approximately 325.7 million, with these new citizens adding to that figure.

This was my second time attending such a ceremony, and both experiences have left a lasting impression on me. While I found the speakers yesterday to be somewhat disappointing, the overall atmosphere was moving and filled with hope.

It is always a privilege to witness the moment when individuals take the oath and officially become part of the American fabric. So, in compliance with applicable regulations and to foster open dialogue, I encourage everyone to share what’s been on your mind lately.

It can be anything from personal experiences to thoughts on current events. I’m looking forward to reading your contributions.

I have an old setup, but it has been functioning well until recently. I’m using a Mac Pro 5.1 with two monitors, running on High Sierra. A few days ago, I encountered an incredibly annoying issue. Normally, when I opened or moved a folder to the second monitor, it would remain in the same position where I last used it.

However, out of the blue, folder windows began to open in their original locations on the second display but would then snap to the right edge of the first monitor. This has become quite frustrating. Interestingly, any folder windows opened on the first monitor do not exhibit this issue; they work perfectly. I have tried several troubleshooting steps, including restarting my computer multiple times, resetting NVRAM, and even checking all cable connections, but nothing seems to resolve the problem.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance or advice to fix this issue. It’s quite disruptive to my workflow, and I am eager to find a solution. My setup may be old, but I’d like to keep it running smoothly as long as possible. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!
