iOS crashes and MacOS flaws? Here's what to do

A date-related flaw in iOS involving apps that send frequent reminders was reportedly causing iPhones and iPads to keep crashing as of the wee hours of Dec. 2. Apple, however, has a fix.

The company said in a support post that what you need to do if you're affected by this bug is turn off notifications for all the apps on your gadget and then update your device to iOS 11.2. After you update, you can go in and turn notifications back on.

About speculative execution vulnerabilities in ARM-based and Intel CPUs

Security researchers have recently uncovered security issues known by two names, Meltdown and Spectre. These issues apply to all modern processors and affect nearly all computing devices and operating systems. All Mac systems and iOS devices are affected, but there are no known exploits impacting customers at this time. Since exploiting many of these issues requires a malicious app to be loaded on your Mac or iOS device, we recommend downloading software only from trusted sources such as the App Store. Apple has already released mitigations in iOS 11.2, macOS 10.13.2, and tvOS 11.2 to help defend against Meltdown. Apple Watch is not affected by Meltdown. In the coming days we plan to release mitigations in Safari to help defend against Spectre. We continue to develop and test further mitigations for these issues and will release them in upcoming updates of iOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS.

Latest macOS Update Breaks Support for Many External Monitors
April 4, 2018
https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/ne...te-breaks-support-for-many-external-monitors/

macOS High Sierra 10.13.4, the latest macOS version released on March 29, breaks support for many externally-connected displays, according to users of four popular app & driver providers.
[...] Only the external display's video feature was affected. External monitors with functionality such as Ethernet and audio were unaffected, only they didn't render anything on screen.
App makers advising users to remain on macOS 10.13.3
DisplayLink, Duet Display, and Air Display are now officially advising users not to update to the latest version of macOS if they wish to use their external displays.

"[macOS High Sierra 10.13.4] introduces severe WindowServer bugs that crash most inelegantly when you connect to a virtual monitor like Air Display (or its competitors)," said Avatron Software, maker of Air Display.

It is unclear if this is an actual macOS bug or a permanent change that Apple made to its OS without letting app developers know in advance.

Does Latest iOS Update Kill Repaired iPhone 8 Screens?

Apple could potentially be in hot water again after it was reported that iOS 11.3 is bricking the touchscreen’s of iPhone 8 handsets.

Apple released iOS 11.3 at the end of March, and it is reported that the update is killing the touchscreen functionality in iPhone 8s repaired with some aftermarket screens, which had worked prior to the software update.

If the report is true, this is not the first time that Apple has done this. The ‘Error 53’ controversy for example erupted in 2016, prompting official investigations from a number of regulators around the world.
