My Apple Watch is triggering security store alarms

This weekend, I'm leaving the store's security at a local store and then yesterday again go into Best Buy.  At best buy the security guy suggested that I my Apple Watch off the coast and he gave it through security and it exploded.  It is very annoying and translates to me stopped, checked I have now, I have to explain my watch is the cause.  I saw post of previous years on this subject.  Has anyone figured out why this happens and how can I stop it?

Thank you

KC

Have you asked these stores if they have seen this problem with other Apple watches? I guess they have RFID sensors any and they pick you up on the watch. As it doesn't seem to be a common problem in particular, I think that there is something about these particular theft protection systems. I don't know enough about for them to know if they are somehow adjustable but it might be something that you might suggest.

There is no way to disable the NFC in the Apple Watch, I know.

    So I've pre-ordered the Apple Watch series 2 and received a notification of shipment for delivery on Sept. 21. However, I just stumbled on the Apple Store to pick up my iPhone 7, and they had ZERO Apple watches for sale... Looks like these are available in VERY limited quantities at the Apple Store. Someone at - he hopefully pick up?

    Not me. I stopped at my local store too and spoke with an employee that said they were full, but I could check the website store at 8:00 tomorrow to see if they have received a whole night. I didn't ask details so I will try to know where to look. The Apple Online Store shows not available for pickup. I hope that this will change tomorrow. As shown in the model I want 3-5 weeks for delivery.

  • App Apple Watch Timer is setting alarms

    I see a weird behavior with the OS3 timer app Watch: when the countdown is reached, I get the usual "done timer' screen with the bell sounds and the haptic feedback. I type the 'Stop' and stop the alerts. So far so good, but after 1 or 2 seconds, an alarm goes off saying "COUNT_DOWN_TIME_REACHED". Of course, I know that, I just rejected in the clock application so why also the notifications of alarms app? This never happened in OS1 and OS2. Is it supposed to be a 'novelty' for OS3? Is it possible to disable it?

    Restart your Apple Watch

    1. Hold down the side button until you see the cursor off the power.
    2. Drag the slider to turn off your device.
    3. Once your watch turns off, press and hold the side button again until you see the Apple logo.

    Then try the timer.

  • Is there a difference in features between the version of the apple store and the best version to buy for the Apple Watch?

    I plan to buy a Apple Watch for my sister's birthday and I was wondering if there is a difference in features between buying the Apple Watch on an apple store or buy the Apple Watch at a best buy.

    No difference, but better to buy directly from Apple if the watch should repair at any given time. Best Buy customer service isn't the best.

  • Apple Watch store

    I will be going on a trip and won't wear my Apple Watch for a few months.  What is the best method for storage?

    Hi Ron

    Follow these tips from Apple:

    When storing long-term Apple Watch, two major factors will affect the overall health of the battery:

    • The ambient temperature, and;
    • Percent charge remaining in the battery when you turn off your watch, ready for storage.

    Apple recommends the following:

    • Do not recharge completely or fully unload your Apple Watch - load only around 50%. (If you store a device when the battery is completely discharged, the battery could fall into a 'deep discharge State", leaving unable to hold a charge. (However, if you store full for a long time, the battery can lose some of its ability, resulting in the shorter battery life).
    • Turn off your watch to avoid the use of the extra battery: press and hold the side button until you see the cursor off the power, then drag the slider to turn off.
    • Place your watch in a fresh environment free of humidity with temperatures of less than 32 ° C (90 ° F).
    • If you plan to store your watch for more than six months, charge it to 50% every six months.

    When you turn back on your watch, it can directly enter the mode of power reserve. To exit this mode, charge your watch, then press and hold the side button until the Apple logo appears.

  • App Apple Watch Store

    Hello

    I'm not sure if I should post this in the article 'Watch' or 'IPhone '.

    I bought a Apple Watch a few days ago. the first day I got it, it seemed fine (although most of the night was to load/update) until the next day.

    I clicked on 'Watch' on my IPhone and it loads to the top of the screen with all my settings.

    If I then click on 'Explorer', 'Star' or 'Search' I just get a blank white screen and nothing is still trying to load.

    This happened the first day of its use after charging.

    I then go to the chat support on apple's site and went through a load of things that does not work then they asked me to reset my settings (which proved do nothing except average I have to redo my fingerprints and passwords)

    After the completion of this had not helped, and the app store still didn't work they put in place a phone call from one of them to talk to me through what was going on and ultimately a restore has been proposed.

    I did a restore of a backup that I had done the day before and everything was back to normal and the AppStore watch worked again.

    He worked all day yesterday and then today when Ive woken up, I click on the 'round', all my settings are there as usual. Click on "Explore / Search ' and it's just a blank white screen again and no loading.

    The Watch works fine

    My phone works fine

    everything seems to work very well outside the App Store on 'Watch', but surely something is wrong somehwhere to get there. don't know if it is a lack of monitoring or by phone, but something does not work

    Someone already had this problem or have any suggestions to what it could be.

    I really don't like my phone again for him to stop working again after a day of compensation

    Thanks for any help

    Hello

    To clarify: the expected behavior for the 'Search' tab is to show a white screen with a search bar at top. Only the content will be displayed during the search. For example:

    -Start typing "Weather" or a known application (for example ' Dark Sky') name in the search box > the page must fill out a list of names app > press on see more details.

  • Its too strong Apple Watch after alarm or timer

    Hi all

    I noticed something very odd on the Apple Watch, whenever I put a timer or a clock radio, when it sounds to wake me up or to tell me that the timer is finished. It makes the sound on Apple Watch very strong after that. For example, when you receive notifications, send messages, etc. it's like the volume is two times stronger than before...

    The only solution I found is to restart the watch or to go into the settings, turn down the volume all the way, and then I put the volume to full. It seems the ring timer or alarm to change the volume of the watch.
