  • Anyone know if 16.6 public beta fixes the USB Camera Adapter Dongle tha

    From sms@21:1/5 to All on Fri May 26 15:18:49 2023
    Anyone know if the iOS 16.6 beta fixes the issue with the Lightning to
    USB 3 Camera Adapter <https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MK0W2AM/A/> not working in 16.5?

    SIL complaining about it not working and I didn't believe her at first
    but apparently it's a real issue <https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254875835>. If the 16.6 beta fixes
    it I'll have her sign up to get the public betas. I don't have that
    dongle so I can't try it on my iPhone with 16.6. There's no indication
    of what was added or fixed in the latest 16.6 public beta that I could
    find..

    Interesting accessory. Does this also work with iPhones? I'd love to use
    my cheap ext. USB microscope with my iPhone instead of a laptop/notebook
    like outside.

    There is a firmware update for the adapter, but it is unclear to me whether
    the update fixed or created the problem. The link to Macrumors is on the above Apple discussions page.

    I would imagine it will be fixed in 16.5.1.

    This is why I never install OS updates quickly. I always wait a few weeks
    to see what issues pop up. I’m still on 16.4.1 on everything here.

    As I predicted, 16.5.1 fixes this issue.
