The iPad Air is almost ready for release, and naturally, Apple's accessory partners are hot on its tail. We've already seen the first batch of what Belkin has to offer the Cupertino's rebranded slab, and now, Logitech has come through with a substantial helping of cases and accessories for the fifth-gen iPad.
Earlier this week at Apple's latest media event, the Cupertino company finally released the newest Mac operating system: OS X Mavericks, to the world. Alongside this release came a more silent release of iOS 7.0.3 which brought with it full iCloud Keychain compatibility to go along with Mavericks. If you're unaware of what iCloud Keychain allows you to do, think of it like browser saved passwords, for all of your Apple devices. Once you have set up this new feature, you'll be able to sign into all of your favorite websites in Safari without having entered any of your passwords. It even stores your credit card details for purchases. Don't worry, the data is all encrypted locally, so Apple won't be handling all of your credit card numbers without your permission.
Apple's Mac Pro is something of a looker even in its standard shiny black guise, and if you're hardcore enough to stump up the minimum $3,000 price of entry there's little doubt that you'll be getting a good looking computer as well as a mighty powerful one. But everything can always be improved.
The jailbreak scene allows iOS device owners to manipulate their beloved gadgets in all manner of weird and wonderful ways, but with iOS 7 having just been released last month, we're not quite there yet. As such, we're basically restricted to what Apple offers and allows, and any neat little tip or trick should be boxed up, shared and savored. One reader of Redmond Pie has discovered a handy way to discreetly capture videos or photos on iOS 7, and whether you were actually in the market for a secret camera or are just simply looking for something a little out of the ordinary to try, this trick has you covered.
Apple's release of iOS 7 has been nothing if not controversial. As we sit here, a month after its release to the public, the seventh big release of Apple's iPhone and iPad software may be installed on millions upon millions of devices worldwide, but that doesn't mean that everyone is happy with it.
The iPad Air and Retina iPad mini 2 are making rounds of the Internet these days, but that doesn’t mean the older generation devices are to be forgotten just yet. We already saw a price cut for the first-gen iPad mini alongside the announcement for newer devices, but now it appears the Cupertino company has also (silently, I must add) dropped a Space Gray version of the original iPad mini, through its select retail stores and its online store as well.
There have been software updates flying around like confetti for the last few days, and while the Mac, iPhone, iPad and even the iPod touch have all received new versions of their software recently, it seems that someone inside Apple still had time to remember the company's hobby.
This year, Microsoft has been working hard to make its Office productivity suite more widely accessible, and Apple has responded by doing likewise with iWork. The iOS and Mac versions of iWork - which comprises of Pages, Keynote and Numbers - are now essentially free of charge, to those who recently bought a new iOS device or a Mac. But now, it has emerged that thanks to a bug with the Mac App Store, many of those running the trial version have been able to upgrade to the full, no-holds-barred version for absolutely nothing, and the same goes for iLife and Aperture.
Yesterday was undoubtedly a pretty big day for iPad lovers. Not only did Apple dish up a refreshed iPad but it also changed its name to the relatively unpopular iPad Air. Alongside the new Retina iPad mini 2, the new iPad Air takes the original iPad and improves upon it in all kinds of ways.
As far as the last twenty-four hours have gone, the news cycle has been dominated by new hardware. New iPads, new MacBook Pros and a new Mac Pro have been enough to take attention away from possibly the biggest thing to ship straight after Apple's media event finished yesterday.
