Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 29/07/2015
» I have had guests at my home all week and it has been something of a mini-Apple event. I bought iPads for the two friends who already had an iPad mini each. I gave them the latest iPad mini 3. With these we had over a dozen devices together and I could not resist a photograph that included a MacBook, MacBook Pro 13-inch (2012), MacBook Pro 13-inch (2010), two x iPad mini 2, 2 x iPad mini 3, iPad Air 2, 2 x iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and an Airport Extreme router under the table. There was also an Apple TV behind me.

» This week, my friends have been trying out their new iPad mini devices. Neither of them has totally switched to the newer models, partly because of content. In one case, it is due to the downloaded music videos on the older iPad mini. The other friend has been exploring the ability to draw, having found Pencil by Fifty-Three: the stylus I examined in February this year.

Managing storage with newer Macs
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 10/06/2015

The information was not shared with Apple beforehand, so there was no time for a patch, while online reports became more hysterical with each retelling. For the paranoid among us, shutting down (instead of sleep) will avoid this particular problem until it is fixed.

Arrivals: Apple Music and a MacBook
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 08/07/2015
» Last Tuesday evening, Apple updated iOS8 and OS X to include the latest versions of Music and iTunes to bring Apple Music to users. I updated my iOS devices first and signed up for the three-month free trial. The fee for users here is $4.99. Lower rates than the US rate apply in other countries, too.

Scraping the barrel
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 17/06/2015
» Last week Apple held its Developer Conference (WWDC) for 2015, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. I watched the event live via the feed on Apple TV taking notes and again the next day (but more slowly) when I added some important points I had missed. Many commentators were disappointed because there was no hardware: no iPhones or new Apple TV that had been rumoured.

Apple's Swift U-turn
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 01/07/2015
» With its Music service becoming available this week, Apple walked into a lot of criticism over the decision to make the first three months free: from independent music labels and (to great publicity) Taylor Swift.
