What a trip!  :toothgrin:
I have an album in my music library by Molly Hatchet... I sync it to my iPad often. On this new iOS however... it does show up in Playlists BUT NOT in Artists, Albums or Songs... it does not exist. But the playlist is there and it plays.  :wacko:

And do you think the playlists would show their album artwork as they used to? No Sir, No Ma'am!  :wallbash:

WHAT is history? ... and what is the cowbell for?   :dntknw:

*edit**
Figured out "history"... mainly a pain in the b*tt! And the cowbell... is the mute on or off for sounds... duh... huh? It honestly looks like it's for alerts period, not keyboard and lock sounds... IMO it was a more intuitive looking setting in iOS 9.3.5... BUT I guess someone thought the cowbell was cuter so... and no labels in the control centre either... in previous iOS it plain out said "mute on" or "mute off"...
OK... I'm getting irritated... time for "beddie-bye"... G'Nite!  :toothgrin: :sleep:

...???
I'd never heard of that. I can't watch the thing on NBC because it's not available in my region.

... and I HATE this iOS... I can't figure out up or down, I've lost ALL my appointments etc.

Life is too short to live like that! Try one of the several dozen Android versions. :yes:

I dunno... for one thing I've got many questions to ask. I was absolutely "peeved" because the iPad and this stupid iOS took privilege of turning on cellular data for "everything". It used 1.5GB before I noticed. I'm allowed 1GB with Bell for the iPad... which has always been enough even allowing for assist when WiFi connection bad. I have no idea how much the extra 500mb will cost me...  :wallbash:

It just turned it on for all the apps listed! Duh!

My iPad doesn't even have Cellular capability! The iPhone does, of course, but the OS has a setting for every app that can use Cellular data, I have mainly Mail, Safari and Maps. But I also have Cellular Data normally Disabled (Voice only unless I want/need data). :dntknw:

Still, if the hardware/OS don't work the way you want, get rid of them. :yes:

I "used" to have it so it could be turned on just for WiFi assist for if one hit a poor connection but never for such a laundry list of apps obviously just using it for what it's worth. I've never gone over my limit. What I really wanted it for in the first place was so I could use the iPad when there is no WiFi but it's all over the place here now anyway.

I'm also going to have to hunt down my appointments since it doesn't like the Calendar I was using. It's still set for WiFi assist but not all those apps!

I dunno... I like the device... iPad but this OS....  :wallbash:

I'll give myself some time and see if I can get comfortable with it. If I can get some questions answered maybe and research. It's done some thing I don't like at all but... maybe some tinkering.

I know my friend in Vancouver uses Android... she won't go near Apple...  :dntknw:

Hey Jim, I caught More Cowbell on You Tube!  :thumbup: I don't know if it was the whole skit but funny anyway...

As for the eerrmm... "iPad"... I've found another calendar app to take the place of the other but it doesn't get back everything I lost... a good app though. Thanks to iCloud all my contacts are gonzo so I'm hoping my sister can send me at least Family which is what most were. If not... I suspect another MacOS TM restore is in the near future... hope not!
