    17.2 Causing Instability?

  • After playing whack-a-mole with all my devices enough, I finally powered down all my Home hubs for 5 minutes and did a slow restart, meaning that I powered the Apple TV that usually ends up as my “connected” hub and let my devices connect. Then, once everything was connected and seemingly working, I started powering on my other hubs (HomePod OGs and Minis). So far I seem to be back normal.

    17.2 Causing Instability?

    Since upgrading to iOS/tvOS/HomePodOS 17.2, my HomeKit stuff has been SO unstable where every day since 17.2 came out I have been putting out fires and rebooting devices. Even devices that are usually very solid. A couple of times I have even had to do full resets of a device and re-add it to my home when rebooting didn’t work, which is normally a very rare occurrence.

    Along with rebooting or power cycling devices, I’ve rebooted and power cycled Apple TVs and HomePods with no luck. Tonight I even rebooted my WiFi hubs (eero Pro 6) and updated the firmware. Jury is still out on results of that.

    Anyone else having problems?

    Unit Conversion App?

  • There is a free app called Units which seems to convert everything. Been solid for me.

    What is the cheapest/easiest/quickest/best way to digitize thousands of paper photos? I realize these four parameters may be mutually exclusive.

  • The easiest, quickest, and best way I found to scan thousands of photos was to purchase an Epson FastFoto scanner. You stick a whole stack of photos into it, it scans them one after the other amazingly quick, then you stick another stack in and keep going. I did this with boxes of old photos of every size, some of which I literally had to cut out of photo albums. There are options for scan quality and resolution. It helps tremendously to have your photos organized for how you’d like to store them, so for instance have your 1989 Grand Canyon photos together so that they can be named and numbered as they are scanned. It will even scan the back of the photos if you have writings or labels you want to preserve. This might not be the cheapest option, but its fits your other criteria perfectly.

    Multiple HomeKit hubs

  • Do you have more than one Home setup? (Home Settings / < Homes) Maybe the HomePod is in the wrong one?
