Apple has officially published their latest financial results that give a thorough insight into how the Cupertino based company has performed in the last fiscal quarter. Many technology analysts and industry insiders have been using the days running up to the Apple Earnings Conference Call to declare their predictions that the company would fall short of projections due to lackluster demand for the iPhone 5 because new devices were on the verge of being announced. With posted revenues of $37.5 billion it seems that Tim Cook and his executive team can take a lot of positives from the financial performance.
We all thought that writing down notes was dying off, especially with services like Evernote fast becoming the place where we put just about everything. Note-taking has become a much more digital experience these days, and jotting things down on an iPhone or iPad is just a way of life for many of us. But that doesn't mean that there isn't still a place for the humble pen, especially if there's a good way to combine the traditional act of handwriting notes with the highly organized, highly digital way that Evernote users would keep track of their notes. That's where Livescribe comes in.
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 earnings release for the third quarter of 2013 is just around the corner, with the company announcing its financial performance for Q3 next Monday. That means it’s time for earnings previews, and famous Apple Inc. analyst Gene Munster has provided just that. Among all the discussion on Apple’s financial performance and upcoming prospects, what interests us most is Gene’s claims of a new iPhone 6 being in the works; one with a considerably larger screen, and that will see the light of day around summer next year.
Apart from all the great features which iOS 7 brings to the table, it also includes a bunch of cool APIs for accessory makers. Starting from iOS 7, manufacturers have full control over the throttle and can make full-fledged iOS 7 compatible game controllers which can be paired up with an iOS device over Bluetooth for gaming.
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.
After a period of long wait, which almost feels like forever, Tweetbot 3 for iPhone has been finally released on the App Store, and as promised by its dev a while back, has been redesigned from the ground up to cater to the look and feel of iOS 7. More details and as well as direct App Store link can be found right here.
A lot has been made of Apple's decision to offer a multitude of different color options with the iPhone 5c, and naturally, every buyer of the device has been faced with the dilemma of which one to pick. After all, when you're making such a significant investment, it's always best not to opt for a shade you're likely to grow quickly bored of. Thankfully, the creativity of George Michael Brower has altered the dynamic of this conundrum by helping you turn your colorful device into your very own Pokémon.
The iPhone 5c and, more so, the iPhone 5s, are two of the hottest properties in tech right now, and with the former not being as "budget" as some had hoped while the latter remains in very short supply, it stands to reason that iPhone fans may instead opt for some of the alternatives out there. As well as the scores of options from rivaling mobile vendors, there are also plenty of interesting knockoffs, and Chinese outfit GooPhone has long since been making money by essentially ripping off Apple products. In light of those recent releases, GooPhone is back with the "i5c" and "i5s" to emulate the two flagship iPhones, and I think you will agree that both are extremely convincing.
iOS 7.0.3 for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch was released shortly after Apple’s iPad event yesterday, and fixed a bunch of bugs which users have been facing for quite a while. While the update does patch many potential bugs, it does partially break the recently released BBM for iPhone app, and in this post, we’ll show you how to get around this crash which users might be facing on the app running on iOS 7.0.3.
