Hi twandelt, welcome to the madness. :)
I definitely have a problem with the phpmyadmin install, good to know that's the issue.
Now that both of you are able to login I'm pretty sure apache and php are working ok, maybe still a config issue and probably always has been. The login uses php and nothing would load if apache wasn't running so it definitely sounds like there's a problem with the DS18B20 and pH systems.
I think if you both reformat once again but this time install v6.0, I know that was working. Then ignore the updates and tomorrow I will see what's up.
Here's the steps.
sudo unzip -o Robo-Tank_v6_0.zip -d /boot/
After the install runs it'll delete that robotank folder as it's not needed, that's probably what was happening. I doubt there's anything wrong with your Pi, temps and pH is sounding like a software issue. Same with the Mac, I don't see that being the issue either as this is all done on the Pi in the c++ program. The system scans the 1-wire bus and I2C and looks for changes based on what's known. If a new sensor that's never been detected is found it should popup, sounds like that's what's not happening.

Here's the steps.
- Reformat the SD card using Pi Imager.
- Run the following two commands.
sudo unzip -o Robo-Tank_v6_0.zip -d /boot/
- Download and extract the zip file attached earlier for the good installer
- Copy the install_robotank.sh to the /boot/robotank/ on your SD card and overwrite the existing file.
- Then run the following command with fingers crossed.

Cant see why this won't work, don't imagine apple would be causing a problem as apple is linux based so should be easier?Ill send you terminal output in case you can spot something
