stuck at "Fetching Devices..." #15

Closed tribbles3 closed 3 years ago

tribbles3 commented 3 years ago

Everything was working fine until a couple of days ago. Now my "Locate My Devices (input)" nodes are no longer working and are stuck displaying "Fetching Devices...". I have created new account settings but that did not work. I have multiple apple accounts that I was accessing and now none of them are working. I am able to directly log into my appleID accounts with no problem.

Same here since several hours :/

Same issue

RaoulSargent commented 3 years ago

For me: "find my phone" works ok. (continues to work) "locate my devices" gets stuck as described. (was previously working) "send message" failed, statuscode 500 (this has never worked for me)

Same here. It stopped working at 2021.05.12. 03:13 GMT+1 :) Anyone knows how to get it work again?

PfisterDaniel commented 3 years ago

Yes, i have the same problem but i have a solution for this and i will release a new version today or tomorrow.

The problem is the family devices, these no longer work.

PfisterDaniel commented 3 years ago

Version 1.1.0 is published

Please test it...

RaoulSargent commented 3 years ago

Thank you for the rapid response - upgraded to 1.1.0 (previously on 1.0.9)

"find my phone" works ok. (continues to work) "locate my devices" works ok. (now working again, only lists 'own' devices as per changelog for 1.1.0) "send message" failed, statuscode 500 (this has never worked for me)

The send message has never worked for me (1.0.9 and 1.1.0), always gives a 500 error and message "Sending failed, Check your device ID". I am using the same account and device ID for "Send Message" as being used for the other "Find-Me" nodes, so I know the creds are correct.

Again I want to say thank you for creating these node-red nodes and your continued support.

PfisterDaniel commented 3 years ago

Send message works fine for me, I just checked it. Does anyone have the same problem? Unfortunately I can't recreate it on my end. It only works for me when I enter an incorrect DeviceID.

RaoulSargent commented 3 years ago

All Working Now - I deleted and re-added everything. Therefore it is most probably that my problems were my own fault in my config somewhere, but I cannot explain why I see my DeviceID values have now changed compared to what I had previously configured.

So, all working, and thank you again for fixing this so quickly.

Can device IDs change with an iOS upgrade perhaps ?

PfisterDaniel commented 3 years ago

This would be possible because I am using a non-official API here that is used by the "Who is" app and can change from one moment to the next.

A solution for this problem would be to locate every 5 minutes your Devices with the node "Locate my Devices" and store the ID in a variable. Then I point the following nodes to the variable so you could avoid the problem.

Thank you VERY much for such incredibly quick response :) Works like a charm for my use, as before :)
