I never knew that! I don't use Apple Pay often, and when I od, it's generally with my Apple Watch. When I've used the phone, though, I always thought I had to double press the home button first. Thanks for the correction, and sorry for my bad information! -- Alex Hall > On Mar 3, 2018, at 2

Arnold, You do not need to press any buttons, first. The method you described is the correct one if you only have one credit card on file or if you wish to pay with the default card. When the phone is in proximity of the terminal, it will automatically wake-up and the process will begin, ju

I never knew I had to double press the home button first. I just hold my phone near the reader with my finger on the home button, and it goes through, except for one time, I don't know what was wrong then. I will try double pressing the home button first next time, to see if it works even better

Re: Choosing my First MacBook, Air or Pro, and With or Without Touch Bar?

Hi all, I wanted to add my own thoughts, having owned an Air and now a Pro with Touch Bar. I agree that the Bar is unnecessary, making a few things easier, a few harder, and not offering a distinct advantage for most users. That said, Touch ID is very nice to have, though if you own an Apple Wat
