The Smart Connector is a magnetic port that allows you to connect compatible accessories, such as the Smart Keyboard or the Magic Keyboard, to your iPad. Sometimes, your iPad may stop responding to your keyboard or trackpad that’s connected with the Smart Connector. This could be due to various reasons, such as software issues, dirt or debris on the connectors, or interference from other cases or covers. According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials1, the following steps can help you troubleshoot the problem:

• Restart your iPad. This can resolve many software glitches that may prevent your iPad from recognizing your accessory. To restart your iPad, press and hold the Top button and either volume button until the power off slider appears. Drag the slider, then wait for 30 seconds for your device to turn off. To turn your device back on, press and hold the Top button until you see the Apple logo.
• Remove any other iPad case or cover. Some cases or covers may interfere with the Smart Connector or the accessory’s magnets, causing connection issues. Make sure you remove any other case or cover from your iPad before attaching your accessory. Also, make sure the Smart Connector and the accessory’s connectors are clean and free of any dirt or debris. You can use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the connectors.
• Update your iPad to the latest version of iPadOS. Updating your iPad can ensure that you have the latest features and bug fixes that may improve the compatibility and performance of your accessory. To update your iPad, go to Settings > General > Software Update and follow the onscreen instructions.

References:

• Allow USB and other accessories to connect to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

Restoring a Mac with Apple silicon using Apple Configurator is a process that updates the firmware, updates recoveryOS to the latest version, and erases and installs the latest version of macOS on the internal storage. When this process is complete, any data on any internal volumes is unrecoverable. You must restore the firmware and erase the internal flash storage if reviving the firmware is unsuccessful or if you can’t start the Mac from the startup volume or the recoveryOS1. References: Revive or restore a Mac with Apple silicon using Apple Configurator, Apple Support.

If you see a lock icon and a password prompt when you try to start up a Mac with Apple silicon to recoveryOS, the most likely reason is that your Mac is enrolled in an MDM solution and has a recoveryOS password set by the administrator. This password prevents unauthorized access to the recovery environment and the startup options screen, where you can change the security policy, erase the internal storage, or reinstall macOS. You need to enter the correct password to proceed to recoveryOS. If you don’t know the password, you should contact your administrator or the organization that manages your Mac. The other options are not the most likely reasons for this screen to appear, as they have different effects or symptoms.

• A FileVault password is used to unlock the encrypted startup volume, not the recoveryOS. If your Mac has a FileVault password set, you will see a different screen that asks you to enter the password or the recovery key to unlock the disk. You can still access the recoveryOS without entering the FileVault password by holding down the power button until you see the startup options screen.
• A security policy that disallows access to recoveryOS is not possible on a Mac with Apple silicon. The security policy only affects the ability to boot from external media or run non-Apple operating systems. You can always access the recoveryOS by holding down the power button until you see the startup options screen, unless there is a recoveryOS password set by an MDM solution.
• A Startup Utility password is not a feature on a Mac with Apple silicon. The Startup Utility is an app that lets you select a startup disk on a Mac with Intel processor. On a Mac with Apple silicon, you can select a startup disk from the startup options screen, which may require a recoveryOS password if your Mac is enrolled in an MDM solution. References:
• Apple Device Support Exam Prep Guide, page 8

• How to Enter macOS Recovery Mode on Apple Silicon Macs
• How to Enter macOS Recovery on an Apple Silicon Mac - MUO
• Any way to block Safe Mode on a Macbook w/ an M1 chip?

To start up in safe mode on a Mac with Apple silicon, you need to follow these steps1:

• Shut down your Mac, then press and hold the power button for three seconds.
• When the startup options window appears, select your startup disk.
• Click the Continue in Safe Mode button.
• Log in to your Mac.

Safe mode can help you identify whether issues you’re experiencing are caused by software that loads as your Mac starts up. It prevents your Mac from loading certain items, performs a First Aid check on your startup disk, and deletes some caches1. You can verify that your Mac started up in safe mode by using the System Information app1.

The other options are incorrect because they either do not show the Continue in Safe Mode button, or they do not use the correct key combination or timing to enter safe mode.

Rosetta 2 is an emulator that allows applications that were originally built for Intel-based Macs to run on Apple silicon Macs. Rosetta 2 translates the Intel instructions to Apple instructions in the background, without the user noticing. Rosetta 2 is automatically installed when an Intel app is launched for the first time on an Apple silicon Mac. Rosetta 2 can also translate Universal apps that contain both Intel and Apple instructions, if the user chooses to run the Intel version. Rosetta 2 is not a substitute for creating native apps for Apple silicon, but it is a temporary solution to ease the transition. References: Rosetta 2 - Apple Developer, How to Launch the Intel Version of a Universal Apple Silicon App

 Focus filter is a feature in iPadOS that allows you to customize your notifications and home screen based on what you want to focus on. You can create different focus modes for different scenarios, such as work, personal, sleep, or gaming. When you enable a focus mode, you can choose which apps and people can notify you, and which home screen pages you want to see. You can also use Hide My Email with a focus mode to keep your personal email address private in the Mail app. Hide My Email lets you create unique, random email addresses that forward to your real email account, so you can send and receive emails without revealing your real email address. To use Hide My Email with a focus mode, you need to do the following:

• Create a focus mode for work in Settings > Focus. Tap the plus icon and choose Work, then customize the settings as you like. You can also set a schedule or location for your focus mode to turn on automatically.
• Subscribe to iCloud+ and enable Hide My Email in Settings > Apple ID > iCloud > Hide My Email. Tap Create New Address to generate a random email address, and choose a label and a forwarding address for it. You can also create more addresses as needed.
• Open the Mail app and tap the Compose button. Tap the From field and select Hide My Email. Choose the random email address you created for work. Type your email as normal and send it. The recipient will see the random email address instead of your real one.
• When you receive an email to your random email address, you can reply using the same address. The Mail app will automatically use Hide My Email when you reply to an email that was sent to a random email address.
• To manage your random email addresses, go to Settings > Apple ID > iCloud > Hide My Email. You can deactivate, reactivate, or delete any address you created. You can also change the label, the forwarding address, or the signature for each address.

This is the correct answer because Activity Monitor is a built-in macOS utility that allows you to see how much CPU, memory, disk, and network resources are being used by each app and process on your Mac. You can use Activity Monitor to identify and quit apps that are consuming a large percentage of your CPU or memory, or that are not responding. This can help you improve the performance and responsiveness of your Mac. To launch Activity Monitor, you can use Spotlight (Command+Spacebar) and search for it, or find it under Applications > Utilities. You can sort the apps and processes by clicking on the column headers, such as “% CPU” or “Memory”. You can also use the search field to filter the list by name. To quit an app or process, select it and click on the “X” button at the top of the window. You can also use the View menu to see more information about the app or process, such as its open files and ports, its memory usage, or its energy impact. References: How to See Which Program Is Using All Your CPU on Mac, If your Mac runs slowly - Apple Support, How to Fix Crashing Apps on a Mac - How-To Geek

Share disk is a macOS Recovery feature that allows you to share the internal storage of your Mac with Apple silicon as an external drive with another Mac. This feature is useful for transferring files between two Macs, or for troubleshooting issues with your Mac with Apple silicon. Share disk is only available on Mac computers with Apple silicon, and it requires a Thunderbolt or USB cable to connect the two Macs. To use Share disk, you need to start up your Mac with Apple silicon in macOS Recovery, then choose Utilities > Share Disk. On the other Mac, you can access the shared disk from the Finder or Disk Utility. References: = Use macOS Recovery on a Mac with Apple silicon, How to access macOS Recovery on Apple Silicon M1 Mac, Apple Silicon Macs to Feature New Boot and Recovery Interface, New Mac …, How to Enter Recovery Mode on a Mac with Apple Silicon

 A sysdiagnose is a comprehensive report that contains information about the system state, logs, and diagnostic files from your iPad. You can use a sysdiagnose to troubleshoot issues with a custom app or any other app on your iPad. To gather a sysdiagnose, you need to press and quickly release the volume up button, then press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the top button until the screen flashes. Then you can find the sysdiagnose file in the Settings app under Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements > Analytics Data1. References: Apple Device Support Exam Prep Guide, page 10. How to collect a sysdiagnose for iOS, Apple Developer.

This is the correct setting to check if an iPhone is managed by an organization, such as ACME. A profile is a file that contains settings and policies that can be installed on an iPhone to control its features and behavior. A profile can be installed by an organization to manage the device remotely, or by the user to customize the device. A profile can also indicate that the device is supervised, which means that the organization has more control over the device and can apply extra restrictions. To see if an iPhone has a profile installed, go to Settings > General > Profile & Device Management. If there is no profile, this section will not appear. If there is a profile, tap on it to see what type of changes are made. To learn more about the features changed for your specific organization, ask your administrator whether these settings are enforced. References: Delete unknown configuration profiles from your iPhone or iPad, Get started with a supervised iPhone or iPad, See who has access to your iPhone or iPad, How to check if an iPhone is locked or unlocked

 A Managed Apple ID is a type of Apple ID that is created and managed by an organization, such as a school or a business. It allows users to access Apple services, such as iCloud, iTunes U, and Apple School Manager. A Managed Apple ID has different password policies than a regular Apple ID. According to the Apple Business Manager User Guide, one of the password policies for a Managed Apple ID is that “after three incorrect attempts, the account is locked for one hour.” This means that if a user enters the wrong password three times in a row, they will not be able to sign in with their Managed Apple ID for the next 60 minutes. This policy is designed to prevent unauthorized access and protect the user’s data and privacy. References: Use Managed Apple IDs in the Apple Business Manager User Guide

Option B shows an image of the iPad Air (4th generation), which is compatible with the Apple Pencil (2nd generation). The other options show images of the iPad Air (3rd generation), which is compatible with the Apple Pencil (1st generation). The iPad Air (4th generation) has a USB-C port, a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, and a Touch ID sensor on the top button. The iPad Air (3rd generation) has a Lightning port, a 10.5-inch Retina display, and a Touch ID sensor on the Home button. The Apple Pencil (2nd generation) has a flat edge that attaches magnetically to the side of the iPad for pairing and charging. The Apple Pencil (1st generation) has a round shape and a removable cap that covers a Lightning connector for pairing and charging. References: Apple Pencil compatibility - Apple Support, Identify your iPad model - Apple Support, iPad Air - Technical Specifications - Apple

Alternatively, you can swipe right on the Emergency SOS slider to call emergency services immediately. You can also tap the Medical ID button to view or share your medical information, or the cancel button to exit the screen. References: 1 Use Emergency SOS on your iPhone - Apple Support 2 How to trigger Emergency SOS on your iPhone (and shut it off) - iMore

 Revive is an action in Apple Configurator for Mac that allows you to restore the latest version of iOS or iPadOS on an iPhone or iPad device, while preserving user data (if recoverable). Revive is useful when a device is unresponsive or in recovery mode, and you want to try to fix it without erasing the user’s data. Revive does not require the device to be supervised or enrolled in MDM, and it does not affect the activation lock status of the device. Revive is different from Restore, which erases the device and installs the latest version of iOS or iPadOS. Restore also requires the device to be supervised or enrolled in MDM, and it removes the activation lock from the device. Update is another action that installs the latest version of iOS or iPadOS on the device, but it does not work when the device is unresponsive or in recovery mode. Erase all Content and Settings is a device setting that erases the device and removes the activation lock, but it does not install the latest version of iOS or iPadOS. References: = Apple Configurator User Guide for Mac, section “Revive an iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV”; Apple Device Support Exam Prep Guide, page 9.

You can then select an activity to see the log messages for that activity, expand or collapse child activities, and view the details of an activity. References: = View activities in Console on Mac; Apple Device Support Exam Prep Guide, page 11.

To create a bootable macOS installer that includes macOS Recovery on an external storage device, you need to use the Mac OS Extended format, also known as HFS+. This is because the createinstallmedia command, which is used to create the bootable installer, requires the volume to be formatted as Mac OS Extended. APFS (Apple File System) is not supported by createinstallmedia, and neither are the encrypted versions of APFS or Mac OS Extended. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Mac OS Extended. References: Create a bootable installer for macOS, How to create a bootable USB macOS installer, How to format the startup drive for a Mac

 The iPhone Privacy Warning message indicates that the device is using its original MAC address to join the Wi-Fi network, which could allow the network operator or other parties to track the device or profile its online activity. To prevent this, the device can use a different MAC address for each Wi-Fi network, which is called a Private Wi-Fi Address. This feature is enabled by default on devices running iOS 14 or later, but it can be turned off manually or automatically by some networks. To turn on the Private Wi-Fi Address, the user needs to go to Settings > Wi-Fi, tap the info icon next to the network name, and toggle on the Private Wi-Fi Address option. This will generate a new MAC address for the device and rejoin the network. References: = Use private Wi-Fi addresses in iOS 14, iPadOS 14, and watchOS 7, Wi-Fi Privacy Warning on an iPhone: What It Means & What To Do

 Universal Control is a feature that allows you to use a single keyboard, mouse, or trackpad to control up to two other nearby Mac or iPad devices, and work seamlessly between them1. When using Universal Control, you can share the following peripherals between iPad and Mac:

• Trackpad: You can use the trackpad of your Mac or iPad to move the pointer across the screens of both devices. You can also use gestures to scroll, zoom, or switch between apps2.
• Keyboard: You can use the keyboard of your Mac or iPad to type on both devices. You can also use keyboard shortcuts to perform actions or access menus3.
• Mouse: You can use the mouse of your Mac to move the pointer across the screens of both devices. You can also use the mouse buttons to click or right-click4.

You cannot share the following peripherals between iPad and Mac when using Universal Control:

• Apple Pencil: You can only use the Apple Pencil on your iPad, not on your Mac. The Apple Pencil is designed to work with the touch screen of the iPad, not with the display of the Mac5.
• Touch ID: You can only use Touch ID on the device that has the Touch ID sensor, not on the other device. Touch ID is a biometric security feature that requires your fingerprint to unlock your device, make purchases, or use Apple Pay. References: = Universal Control: Use a single keyboard and mouse between Mac and iPad, Use gestures on your Mac trackpad, Mac keyboard shortcuts, Use a Bluetooth mouse or trackpad with your iPad, Use Apple Pencil with your iPad or iPad Pro, [Use Touch ID on your Mac]

Find My uses Bluetooth signals from nearby Apple devices to locate lost or missing devices, even when they’re offline. This feature is called Find My network, and it creates a secure and anonymous network of hundreds of millions of Apple devices that can help find each other. When you mark your device as lost, it sends out a secure Bluetooth beacon that can be detected by other Apple devices nearby. Those devices relay the location of your device to iCloud so you can see it on a map. Find My network respects your privacy and does not reveal any personal information or location data to anyone. Find My also uses Wi-Fi and cellular data to locate devices that are online and have Location Services enabled. References: Find My network overview - Apple Support, Locate a device in Find My on iPhone - Apple Support

 Activation Lock is a feature that prevents unauthorized use of an Apple device after it has been erased. It is enabled automatically when a user turns on Find My on their device. However, for devices that are owned or managed by an organization, there are two types of Activation Lock available: device-linked and user-linked. Device-linked Activation Lock requires Apple School Manager, Apple Business Manager, or Apple Business Essentials and an MDM solution. It allows the MDM solution to control turning Activation Lock on and off through server-side interactions, without depending on the user’s Apple ID or Find My settings. The MDM solution creates and sends a bypass code to Apple servers when it needs to lock or unlock the device. User-linked Activation Lock requires the user to have a personal Apple ID (not a Managed Apple ID) and to turn on Find My on their device. This method allows the user to lock an organization-linked device to their personal Apple ID if the MDM solution has allowed Activation Lock. The MDM solution should request and store a bypass code from the device before allowing the user to turn on Activation Lock. This bypass code can be used to turn off Activation Lock remotely with MDM, or directly on the device, if the user is unable to authenticate with their Apple ID. References:

Then follow the instructions to complete the conversion process. References: = About eSIM on iPhone - Apple Support, Convert a physical SIM to an eSIM; How to convert a physical SIM to eSIM on iPhone 14 - iThinkDifferent.

 Face ID is a biometric authentication feature that allows users to unlock their device with a facial scan. Face ID attempts to match the user’s face with the stored data every time the device is woken up. However, there are situations where Face ID is not permitted or fails to recognize the user. In those cases, the user must enter their passcode or password to unlock the device. One of those situations is when there are five unsuccessful attempts to match a face. After five failed scans, Face ID is disabled and the user is prompted to enter their passcode or password. This is a security measure to prevent unauthorized access to the device by someone who does not look like the user. References: Face ID, Touch ID, passcodes, and passwords - Apple Support, What Is Face ID? - How-To Geek

 According to the image you sent, the screen sharing service is disabled because the remote management service is turned on. You can’t have both screen sharing and remote management on at the same time. Remote management allows you to perform more advanced tasks on another Mac, such as installing and configuring apps, helping remote users, and creating detailed reports. Screen sharing allows you to view and control another Mac’s screen. To enable screen sharing, you need to turn off remote management first. You can do this by going to System Settings > General > Sharing and deselecting Remote Management. Then you can check the box next to Screen Sharing to turn it on. Alternatively, you can use Apple Remote Desktop, a commercial app that combines the features of screen sharing and remote management, and works with both Intel-based and Apple silicon Macs. References: Turn Mac screen sharing on or off - Apple Support, Mac screen sharing won’t work?

Emergency SOS is a feature on your iPhone that lets you quickly and easily call for help and alert your emergency contacts. To access Emergency SOS on your iPhone, you need to press and hold the side button and one of the volume buttons until the Emergency SOS slider appears on the screen. You can then drag the slider to call emergency services, or continue holding the buttons to start a countdown and an alert sound. If you release the buttons after the countdown, your iPhone automatically calls emergency services. Emergency SOS works differently depending on your iPhone model and region. For example, in India, you need to press the side button three times rapidly to call emergency services. You can also customize the settings for Emergency SOS, such as adding emergency contacts, enabling auto call, and turning off the countdown sound. References: Use Emergency SOS on your iPhone - Apple Support, How to trigger Emergency SOS on your iPhone (and shut it off)

According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials, you can change the undo send delay setting on your iPad by going to Settings > Mail > Undo Send Delay1. This setting allows you to unsend an email within a certain time frame after you tap the send button. You can choose from Off, 10 seconds, 20 seconds, or 30 seconds. The other options, A, B, and C, are not correct because they are not the correct paths to access the undo send delay setting. General > Mail > Undo Send Delay is not a valid path in the iPad settings2. Open your mail app then open settings and select Undo Send Delay is not a valid option because the mail app does not have its own settings menu3. Settings > Mail > Accounts > Undo Send Delay is not a valid path because the Accounts section does not have an undo send delay option4. References: 1: Unsend email with Undo Send in Mail on iPad - Apple Support, Section "Delay sending emails". 2: General settings on iPad - Apple Support 3: Mail settings overview for iPad - Apple Support 4: Manage email accounts in Mail on iPad - Apple Support

Instant Hotspot is a wireless feature that allows you to use your iPhone to provide wireless internet access to your Mac without a password. It is one of the Continuity features that Apple provides for its devices. Instant Hotspot uses Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and iCloud to automatically connect your Mac to your iPhone’s cellular internet when Wi-Fi is not available. You just need to click the Wi-Fi icon on your Mac and choose your iPhone from the list of available networks. You don’t need to enter a password or set up a Wi-Fi hotspot manually. Instant Hotspot requires a Mac running OS X Yosemite or later and an iPhone with iOS 8.1 or later and a cellular data plan. Both devices must be signed in with the same Apple ID and have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. References: Share your internet connection from iPhone - Apple Support, How To Tether iPhone Data To A Mac When There’s No Wi-Fi Or Internet

 Wi-Fi signal level, also known as Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), is a measure of how well your device can receive the wireless signal from the router or access point. It is usually expressed in decibel-milliwatts (dBm), which is a logarithmic scale that ranges from -30 dBm (very strong signal) to -100 dBm (very weak signal). The higher the negative value, the weaker the signal.

According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials1, iPhone and iPad will search for a stronger Wi-Fi network when the signal level drops below -80 dBm. This is because a weak signal can affect the performance, reliability, and security of your Wi-Fi connection. A weak signal can also drain your device’s battery faster, as it requires more power to maintain the connection.

To check the Wi-Fi signal level on your iPhone or iPad, you can use the following steps23:

• Open the Settings app on your device.
• Go to Wi-Fi.
• Under the Wi-Fi network list, locate the name of the Wi-Fi network or wireless router you want to check the signal strength for.
• Tap the information icon (i) next to the network name.
• Look for the RSSI value, which shows the signal level in dBm.

Alternatively, you can also use third-party apps that can display the Wi-Fi signal level on your device, such as Wi-Fi Sweetspots or Network Analyzer.
