iPhone iOS 17.5 Update , Causes Users’ Deleted Photos to Reappear.
Apple's latest iOS update is making years-long deleted photos resurface on customers' phones, and it's freaking them out.
In particular, many users were shocked to see sensitive photographs, such as nudes, reappear
on their phones, 'New York Post' reports. .
I went to send a picture and saw that
the latest pictures were [not safe for
work] material we’d made years ago
when we were living apart, Apple product user, via Reddit.
But WTF. It was permanently deleted.
Years ago but magically it’s back??
I checked my iPad and it also has pictures (some art work I did
years ago). I feel so uncomfortable, Apple product user, via Reddit.
Other users referred to the issue as
"the worst software experience ever.".
These just came out of nowhere
this has to be the worst software
experience ever. I thought Apple
had a solid OS, ever since
iOS 16 it's been shambles. , Apple product user, via X.
Another person said that
25 previously-deleted voicemails also
reappeared on their phone, 'New York Post' reports. .
The reports could be down to an
indexing bug, photo library corruption,
or a syncing issue between local
devices and iCloud Photos, Via MacRumors.
Another possibility is that in
attempting to fix a photo syncing
bug that occurred in iOS 17.3,
Apple has inadvertently caused
a new syncing issue to occur that
may involve iCloud backups, Via MacRumors

‘Cowboy Carter’ Is , Missing Tracks on Vinyl, Fans Say.
According to fans who pre-ordered Beyoncé's newest album on vinyl, five songs are missing.
This missing tracks are reportedly
"Spaghetti, Flamenco, The Linda Martell Show, Ya Ya and Oh Louisiana," BBC reports. .
Some fans have even reported that
CD copies are missing four songs.
What is up with that?! How could
she sell an incomplete album?, Fan, via Reddit.
We need at least a discount refund,
or be able to refund altogether
since the CDs and vinyls delivered
are not what was listed, Fan, via Instagram.
Beyoncé previously said that 'Cowboy Carter' took "over five years" to create, which may explain why some vinyl and CDs are missing tracks, BBC reports. .
Albums have to be submitted to
vinyl pressing plants far in advance, so Bey may have added more songs after the fact.
Others noticed that Beyoncé changed the album
title on CD and vinyl copies to 'Act ii: Beyincé.'.
Bey's maternal grandparents were
reportedly called Beyincé, so she
referenced the name in her new work.
Meanwhile, Beyoncé recently talked about how she "wanted to go back to real instruments" on this album.
I didn't want some layers of instruments
like strings, especially guitars, and
organs perfectly in tune. I kept some
songs raw and leaned into folk. , Beyoncé, via statement.

All the sounds were so organic and
human, everyday things like the wind,
snaps and even the sound of birds
and chickens, the sounds of nature, Beyoncé, via statement
