We're still continuing to learn new bits of information all the time with regards to iOS 8 and OS X 10.10 Yosemite, and with communication being an integral part of both of Apple's main operating systems, it should come as little surprise that both iMessage and FaceTime look set for some healthy improvements.
Apple just announced and released the Developer Preview of OS X 10.10 Yosemite, and although the forthcoming Mac software update offers a little more than a few cosmetic changes, it is indeed those aesthetic tweaks that are most noticeable about this particular version. Here, we take a look at Yosemite's UI elements versus the corresponding design of the preceding OS X 10.9 Mavericks, and although it doesn't, on the whole, feel as dramatic a departure from tradition as iOS 7 did back in September of last year, the breakdown really hits home how much work Apple's design team has put in.
OS X 10.10 Yosemite Developer Preview 1 is immediately available to those who have stumped up the $99 annual fee and are enrolled in Apple’s Developer Program. And for those who aren’t, you’re not completely out of luck, as Apple had announced the OS X Beta Seed Program a while back, to give users a chance to test drive pre-release OS X software without being a developer. In this guide, we’ll show you how to sign up for the OS X Beta Seed Program and gear yourself up for OS X Yosemite beta, when it's available sometime this summer.
With almost all major new software releases from Apple, older devices and machines tend to get left behind, and having just announced iOS 8 and OS X 10.10 Yosemite at its WWDC keynote earlier on this week, it has since been confirmed that the the iPhone 4 will not be carried over to the next generation of Apple's mobile software line. Yosemite hasn't, however, claimed any victims, and so if your Mac is compatible with OS X 10.9 Mavericks or indeed 10.8 Mountain Lion, then you should have no problem applying this free Yosemite update when it eventually does release.
iOS has certainly helped in pushing the evolution of the mobile gaming scene over the past few years, but while Apple's decision to bring official third-party game pad compatibility with Made for iPhone (MFi) controller support was initially met with a warm response, things haven't taken off as intended. Now, though, it looks as though Apple plans to expand upon the groundwork already made by allowing iPhones (and their MFi peripherals) to serve as controllers for the wider ecosystem, encompassing devices like the iPad and Mac.
Although Apple divulged some of the details pertaining to OS X 10.10 Yosemite and iOS 8 at WWDC, only now are certain new pieces of information coming to light. In what will go down as great news for developers and video reviewers alike, it would appear that the upcoming version of OS X includes a neat feature for screencasting iOS devices directly to Mac, without any need for third-party hardware.
