Apple to fix web issues caused by latest security update: How to remove it

Apple on Monday released new Rapid Security Response updates for iOS 16.5.1, iPadOS 16.5.1, and macOS Ventura 13.4.1 users but the company pulled the updates the same day as certain websites were not working after these updates were installed. 

The company has now acknowledged the issue and said that the new updates will be available soon to users. 

“Apple is aware of an issue where recent Rapid Security Responses might prevent some websites from displaying properly,” Apple said in a statement. 

“Rapid Security Responses iOS 16.5.1 (b), iPadOS 16.5.1 (b), and macOS 13.4.1 (b) will be available soon to address this issue,” the company adds. 

Apple withdrew the updates within hours when it came to know that users are unable to access some major websites after installing these updates. However, these updates are designed to install automatically without affecting the system firmware but there is no automatic rollback option. 

If you have the latest Rapid Security Response updates installed on your iPhone, iPad or Mac and you are not able to access some websites, here is a step-by-step guide on how to remove the Rapid Security Response from your device.
