Apple has been in the cloud computing game for quite a while now, but while iCloud has allowed iOS and OS X users to keep their devices and files in perfect sync with one another, it certainly hasn't competed, feature-wise, with some of the more versatile offerings like Dropbox. This looks set to change after today's announcement of iCloud Drive, with cloud-syncing app support that spans iOS, OS X and even offers support for Windows.
After a fairly intense build-up, Apple has finally taken the wraps off iOS 8, and as those on newer iOS devices can begin looking ahead to some exciting new features, only one iOS device will be invariably left behind. After the jump, you’ll find an official chart of devices by Apple which will be supported by iOS 8.
Apple has just announced its brand new operating system for its Mac lineup of devices, OS X 10.10 Yosemite. And just like OS X 10.9 Mavericks, Apple has moved away - well and good - from giving cat names to its famed desktop OS. So, what’s new in OS X 10.10? We have every single detail in one place, including features, compatibility and the oh-so important release date.
Apple has just kicked off its annual developers conference. Apple CEO Tim Cook has taken to the stage to announce a number of stats and updates regarding Apple’s performance over the last one year or so.
WWDC 2014 is all ready to accelerate into first gear today, and if you’re reading this then the chances are that you have a fervent interest in what Tim Cook and his executive team are planning to announce. The annual developer meet-up, affectionately known as WWDC, is Apple’s unique way of showcasing its new technologies and products to developers and journalists, while also giving developers an opportunity to offer hands-on labs and valuable feedback sessions. It’s also a great insight into how Apple sees its own roadmap for the year ahead, so here are the details of how, where and when you can follow along at home.
In less than 24 hours the big initial WWDC keynote will be over and we'll know the answers to so many of the questions that we've been posing over the last few weeks. With banners already giving huge hints that we'll be seeing the first glimpses of iOS 8 and Mac OS X 10.10, we're still left with plenty to guess.
With June 2nd now creeping up on us, we're just few hours away from some significant revelations from Apple at WWDC 2014. But what are we to expect from this annual show-piece? Here, we discuss what might, and what almost certainly will be announced at WWDC, along with a few hopeful stabs in the dark for good measure.
Now that WWDC is just around the corner, all eyes are very much on what Apple will be announcing when Tim Cook and his band of merry men take to the stage. While we're all supremely confident that iOS 8 and Mac OS X 10.10 will be revealed at the event thanks to new banners being erected over the last day or two, other details are largely unknown. Rumors leading up to this point had suggested we might see a new product category appear, but that's now looking unlikely.
As you'll almost certainly be aware of by now, Apple's WWDC 2014 is set to begin on Monday, and all of this week, preparations have been made within the Moscone Center venue in San Francisco. A traditional location for WWDC and numerous other Apple events, the interiors of the exhibition hall have been decorated to welcome the siege of developers embarking upon next week's event, and now, we're catching our first glimpse of some iOS 8-related signage.
With the Worldwide Developers Conference now almost upon us, and as such, it should come as little surprise to see designers and general Apple enthusiasts getting their last-ditch concept ideas in before the lock. From what we've gathered, iOS 8 will include several new features and apps, including Healthbook among other goodies, but while we don't anticipate system-wide widget support complete with live tiles, this hasn't stopped one designer from bundling it into his latest concept.
