Safari/MacBook peculiarity
I have closed all tabs on Safari on my Iphone. When I open my MacBook, there are several that show they are still open there. Even though I closed them months ago! It's only a few, and the time/content/etc. seem totally random. A word I looked up in September, info on a dog facility from November, and now a court record I looked at in December. Maybe five or six of these, total.
I went to the Apple support site and learned I was not alone. I followed all directions there about turning iCloud off/on, turning machines off/on, etc. It seemed to work. Two days later? There they are again! So weird!
I again cleared all Safari history on my phone.
Three days later, they're back.
I just finally removed Safari from my phone's home screen, downloaded Opera, and I'm using GoDuckGo for searches. This will just give me a break while I work up the energy to call Apple and get some help with this.
In the meantime, if it's happened to you, how did you fix it? Such a minor irritation, but with enough repetition it's become bigger than it deserves to be.
Happy New Year to all.
"The library could not be opened"
I am recovering from back surgery and I'm not the brightest bulb right now. I've looked this up in Apple support and it felt like something I might do right after I run a marathon AND climb Mt. Everest.
All of a sudden, but maybe coinciding with downloading Sonoma 14.0, when I try to open my photos on my MacBook Air it says "The library could not be opened."
Is there anyone out there whose been through this and can give me third-grade level instructions on what to do?
Thanks in advance.
It's been a rough news day but this made me happy

And Rudy, too!
It's the climate
Any other news item is starting to feel like I'm looking at ants from far away. It is all a diversion.
Hooked on Slow Horses
We only subscribe to Apple TV during Ted Lasso season, so we have a little time to explore. It is really something. I have not read the books but from what I can tell it is faithful to them. They're on my library list now!
MI5/Gary Oldman/some looking back at the good old days of the Cold War/intellectually satisfying/dark humor
Hooked on Aber Bergen
I came across it randomly while recovering from something. It is free on Hoopla but I quickly exceeded my 10 rentals for the month. Now I have one of those "free for a week" subscriptions on Prime to finish season one, and I know I won't be able to stop.
Fascinating. Norwegian courtroom drama with love interest--I had not seen this in my future! Dark, but not unbearably horrifyingly dark--yet.
Two new news sources for Indiana
They both send daily emails. They provide a level of news that had been missing from what I could find.
indianacapitalchronicle.com
AXOIS now has an Indianapolis page on their website and you can sign up for their Indy emails there.
Enjoy!
Messages app won't speak to my husband suddenly
I have Apple, he has Android. We text all the time. Once in a while it won't send something, but this morning it won't let us communicate in either direction. I have sms turned on if i-messages isn't available.
We've turned the phones off and on, tried using non-wifi.
Any ideas out there? Thanks in advance.
