[QUOTE="philappleton, post: 1776684, member: 392340"] A quick update - Just had some very strange things going on today with my iPhone 6 and 7 and iPad Air 2 [url]https://youtu.be/caN5mo3HhEE[/url] Starting with my iPad Air 2 I had no red bar at the top to say a screen recording was going on yet when I swiped up clearly the red button for screen record was flashing. When I tapped on it then it continued to flash and I had no way of stopping it if it is running or even starting a new one for myself. If I can't stop the recording it also means I can't save the recording. These recordings are very valuable to me at present to show what is happening on my devices. [url]https://youtu.be/fAd6wfc8CMU[/url] Next I was going to use my iPhone 6 as a video recorder however due to so many strange things going on I thought I would activate the screen recorder on the iPhone 6 first. When I tap the Screen Recorder the 3,2,1 countdown starts but it doesn't go on to the red flashing circle to say it's on screen record even after pressing several times. Then when I go back to the main screen a red screen recording bar appears for a split second at the top of the screen and disappears by itself! Very strange how I need to record my screens to get evidence to Apple and now I have the Screen Recorders go down on my iPad and iPhone!!!! [url]https://youtu.be/EQKtf2JalMI[/url] Next I try to send the video I took on my iPhone 7 to Youtube in HD and once uploaded I tap on View on Youtube and I get the error message "This Video Is Not Playable". [url]https://youtu.be/oDTX5FZd5ZI[/url] I try again to send it this time in Standard definition and still get the same error message saying the video wasn't playable? Again it would appear someone is trying to stop me collect evidence of all the unexpected behaviour I'm now having! Next I reboot all 3 devices, iPhone 6 & 7 and iPad Air 2. After starting them I check all of them for screen recorder as this is a very good feature for me to be able to document and show what I am experiencing. On the iPhone 6 when I initially started it after the 3,2,1 countdown it didn't go to a red flashing circle, however when I returned to the home screen there was a red bar at the top. So I thought all was good and tapped the red bar to stop the recording and then clicked "Stop" however it just kept going. I tried a few times and was unable to stop it which would also mean I am unable to save the valuable recording evidence!! Because even I as a very "Apple Loyal" would probably not believe half of what I have experienced then I know the Screen recordings are the best way to ensure others can see it first hand and eventually Apple will get this resolved. The pure fact I'm now having problems with screen recorders on several Apple devices now is of great concern!!!!

And the scary thing now is it would appear my other Apple devices are having strange problems which for me is too much of a coincidence. [url]https://youtu.be/FHKH5hTt-8Y[/url] Last but not least my iPad will not join my iPhone 7 Hotspot. They are both logged in to the same Apple Account and with Bluetooth and Wifi on then the iPad should activate the hotspot even if it's not already switched on, which it doesn't. Then even if I activate the hotspot and then try to join it it still fails to join I will to give up, I will keep chasing Apple and providing screed recordings / logs / whatever they want and I will keep this post updated honestly and accurately. If anyone has any ideas what could possibly be happening to my Apple products or any ideas how someone can be getting in to my devices I'd very much appreciate and ideas. I don't mention it here because it's a Mac Forum, however I've also had a lot of issues on my Windows PC.
