Microsoft Outlook for iOS, comes the new Mail app for iOS

According China, Apple would have accepted that the Chinese government inspect their products

Here is one such information for now we have to take with tweezers. According to Beijing News, a means of China, Apple would have given permission for the State Internet Information Office of the Chinese government to inspect iOS devices and Macs have been sold in the country.

The reason: the Chinese administration has been long suspected of Apple products and their safety, claiming that could be the means to spy on members of the government. For this reason it was rumored the prohición buying these devices if you were part of the government, and Tim Cook calmed the community with an open letter in which he said "has ever offered 'backdoors' your software and services to agencies and it never will. "

Apple patents a MacBook touchpad

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

As usual, Apple presents ideas and those ideas try signing patents. Then time will tell which of these patents eventually become reality and what not. The patent in question is focused directly to the MacBook keyboard. 

A keyboard with mini-screens on the keys, capable of capturing touch gestures with a small engine and causing a vibration every time you press a key. Now imagine the possibilities we can offer a keyboard with these features, which could lead to each application is assigned a different keyboard. The initial concept of the touch keyboard on the iPhone led our Macs.

We are not talking about a new concept, in fact there is already a similar keyboard on the market called Optimus Maximus Keyboard and costs of $ 1,600. But the Apple patent would cost less, and may even be included in one these MacBooks with lower price than $ 1,600.

The possibility of representing a different keyboard whichever is the open application, able to jump between applications by simply performing, Scroll touch gestures or make sliding your fingers on the arrow keys ... The possibilities are many, only time will tell if it comes into production and see a future generation of MacBooks with this keyboard or stay in the trunk of memories of Apple's patents.

Is Apple starting to fill iOS with bloatware?

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

One of the first computers I remember used was a Performa 460, which saw the first with color screen, I was like 7 or 8 years. It was very small and did not remember why we switched to Windows, but what I know that they were not "dark years" as some have called the period of dominance by Microsoft. 

During those years in Windows and as an adult, passed through my hands several laptops before returning to Mac, Toshiba, Asus, HP and Compaq, excluding the company that was also a HP and Dell. 

The truth is I've had enough complaints of all laptops, and some quite large. Format Each year, computers which lasted 3-4 years, countless hang up, famous blue screen, Ctrl + Alt + Sup worn ... not to mention disastrous designs dissipated heat directing the charger cable, melting it literally. 

Besides this, there was something that always bothered me about them: the bloatware. It was impossible to dodge, I'd purchased a new laptop or restaurabas and you were there those "useless" programs.

Some were useful as antivirus or Office (yes, test) but then there were others who were rubbish, like Dell multimedia software and application bar at the top of the screen. Instead start using the computer immediately, you spent half an hour or more uninstalling the trash that came pre-installed by the manufacturer. That software "useless" without thinking about if brought or not value to the end user.

When I have a Mac, this situation changed. Computer and operating system were designed and created by a single company that shared the same interests and that did not differentiate their computers with empty programs. It was a change for the better I appreciated greatly.

The bloatware in the era of the smartphone and tablet

In this Post-PC era where tablets and smartphones dispute attention to PC, we are experiencing a similar situation regarding the bloatware. Android smartphones in my environment are usually Samsung. I was surprised by the amount of duplicate apps I've found: two mail clients, two apps store...

So much win manufacturers with their bloatware software?

Apps that insurance may uninstall either official or "unofficial" but that involves additional work for anyone who is not a means-advanced user. This situation was accentuated by the Samsung Galaxy S4, which users criticized.

Again and focusing on iOS, Apple delineated this situation on its platform thanks to its control of the hardware and software. Many users stored apps in a folder. It can berate Samsung, a new terminal with 16 GB of storage is saturated by all the duplicate software, but at least you can expand memory.

The evolution of the standard apps on iPhone

I have been in iOS since my first iPhone 3G and have never had the feeling of having to delete apps around first start. However, it may reflect the increase in native Apple app with a new version of its mobile operating system. If we look, we have gone from: 

• iOS 1: 17 native apps on the original iPhone. 
• iOS 7: 25 native apps on the iPhone 5s.

All this to you without obligation to install nearly as iBooks and Find My iPhone, now would be 27 apps. Tallying, we have to every iOS review brings us one to two native apps that can not be removed, with the obvious waste of space.

According to rumors iOS 8 would present "Healthbook" and even the dubious "Preview" and "TextEdit", then we would have 28 or 30 native apps if we have "compulsory". We can also add free iWork, reaching 33 apps.

Will Apple offer some kind of solution so that its terminals are no longer filled with apps or continue "adding value" like it or not the user?

The MacBook variety, many options for choice

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Now that you have begun the round of renovations to the MacBook Air, will begin to do a special on the options we have in the two great ranges of Mac computers, laptops and desktops. To do this we will review the MacBook family, the Air and Pro in its different variants and Desktops iMac, Mac mini and Mac Pro, and a small final detail with the Apple Cinema Display, which promises this year.

Like the MacBook Air was the first to update, let's start with laptop variety. And although we already know what will bring the MacBook Air this year, perhaps Apple has an ace up his sleeve and can introduce surprises even within the family. And of course, its big brother, the MacBook pro insurance to be renewed.

And what we have now in the MacBook variety?

Right now we have the Air and Pro Series. The first is focused directly to portability, the second to the performance. Each mode has its use and consider that Apple has a very well defined range. But in reality, the MacBook are what keep the Mac family.

The MacBook Air

The variety of the MacBook Air has been renovated this Tuesday. The update has been minimal, just a new generation of Intel processors get more clock speed, from 1.3 to 1.6 prior to the current 1.4 to 1.7 (GHz). No other changes apart from a decrease in prices.

The MacBook Pro

We have a 13-inch model without retina display and other variations in sizes 13 and 15 inch retina display. This is a performance-oriented notebook. It has plenty of power and a huge array of possibilities.

The MacBook Pro is about to be renewed, now takes 186 days without renewal. Probably during the developer conference see an update to the MacBook Pro range, so if you are thinking about buying one might be better to wait. 

If you do not need the ultra-portability of the MacBook Air, we will always have the MacBook Pro, which will give us more power. Yes, this is a high performance laptop that will serve for almost any task. Their price range is very wide and allow us to play with almost any possible configuration when suit our needs.

Eddy Cue and Craig Federighi will be in the first Code Conference with Walt Mossberg

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

The event called D in which Steve Jobs and after Tim Cook always have been interviewed by Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher, now that event is renamed Code Conference (as Walt and Kara now lead the average Re/Code), and this year will be Eddy Cue and Craig Federighi interviewees. 

It is not the CEO, but are facing the heads of services and Apple software with years of experience in the company. As Kara Swisher says in Re / Code, the interview will focus on how those services and Apple systems revolve around the mobile world.

The Code Conference will be held from 27 to 29 May in Rancho Palos Verdes, Southern California. Tickets are already sold out, but the tradition remains can see the full video interview the next day and therefore more interesting to know what they have said Eddy and Craig. Both executives will appear on stage on May 28.

But the latest to view 3D maps Apple implementation is the famous megalithic monument of Stonehenge, which can now Flyover view to appreciate the circle of standing stones from every angle.

Maps on iOS and OS X have made headlines in the Daily Mail for a very different reason. Apparently Apple has been found in Scotland the elusive Loch Ness monster, Nessi! I have to say that the theory has already been removed but certainly this time believers were quite convincing as support.

Tools for creating storyboards in OS X (Part 1)

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

When creating a storyboard technology offers certain options, if it is a large project, useful and practical. Not to mention not having to carry a stack of papers above is always appreciated. Therefore, I have decided to seek applications for Mac and iOS that allow us to create a storyboard. 

Of course, there are listed a bit of everything, some of them will seem the past because their interfaces are nothing but attractive if they meet their duties is enough in this case. We started with the Mac.

Storyboarding in OS X

The first is StoryBoard Quick. Basically it is a database of images that can be inserted to recreate various scenes of our short film, advertisement, ... These elements in turn can rotate, change in size and position. It is not pleasant visually but does not seem a bad option. 

The same developer offers a more complete version, StoryBoard Quick Studio, and a version to take our iPad and other options that you can see on their website, PowerProduction Software. Although its price, $ 249, more than one will dismiss it quickly.

Another option is Toonboom Storyboard Pro. We could define it as a drawing application where each of them will be one of our project plans. These will be organized in the application itself and can rearrange them with drag and drop. It may not be perfect but it is certainly the one that has convinced me.

FrameForge Previz Studio is also an application for creating storyboard tool able to animate the scenes, something that may be helpful to some but that means extra work that may not be necessary.

The five reasons that are warming the price of Apple

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

1. Few bright results
The revenue of the company rose by 4.6 percent to $ 45,600 million, a record for a non-holiday quarter. This figure is above the 43.500 billion analysts had expected. Also, these accounts imply a profit of $ 11.62 per share, better than expected they were $ 10.18. Specifically, quarterly earnings increased 7%.

2. The increase in iPhone sales
Apple reported sales of 43.7 million iPhones in the first quarter, exceeding the 38 million Wall Street had predicted. This contributed to the doubts hanging over Apple's flagship device, which has shown that continues to attract the faithful.

3. The split 
Apple has announced that each share of the company will be divided by 7. This decision facilitates entry into the Dow Jones Industrial, and is one of the factors that has driven the price of the company, since the presence in index attracts so much money from passive management. In addition, this will allow fans of the company can be done with some that could not previously. There is also a psychological factor: It is not the same as having an action 7.

4. The dividend
Apple also announced an increase in the quarterly dividend by 8% to $ 3.29. The dividend has been for years one of the major demands of the investors in the technology of the apple.

5. Buyback program 
The other factor that is driving the action is the announcement that senior management has approved a new share repurchase program worth $ 30,000 million by 2015, which will certainly boost its market value.

However...

Despite these bullish factors, the results presented this week have failed to dispel the main question that continues to weigh on the company: When will Apple launch a new product?


The momentum gained by the first iPod; then by the iPhone in 2007 and finally with the iPad in 2010 is undeniable, but the competition is fierce and it now spends Google billions of dollars in artificial robotics; Samsung is gaining it while growing market in the area of smartphones. The billionaire Carl Icahn, one of the shareholders of Apple that has fought for the share repurchase program summed it up well in his Twitter account: "I completely agree with the share repurchase program and extremely pleased with the results. I also will be happy when they launch new products "

Darth Vader: Apple is finished!

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Yesterday was the day of presentation of results from Apple and as always, half the world stopped to see if its harmful results were confirmed: 

• Apple has stopped growing and goes irretrievably destruction. 

• Manufacturers mostly competing against Apple with commodity products, which are so used luegono like yours. 

• Manufacturers, except in the category of Samsung smartphones, not money making products or flagships whose sales do not exceed harmful and expensive iPhone 5c. 

But... that reality does not spoil a nice story against Apple!

Judge a company so severely for his "disappointing" quarterly results is extremely shortsighted. Guided by the expectations of Wall Street or a perpetual and constant growth, and expect a new category every two or three years at the level of iPhone is a mistake. First, because it is impossible, because it ignores second how innovation works. But still and all, sales of the iPad have had a drop of 16%, a drop of 19.48 to 16,350,000. Enough to tell that story: Apple is finished!

The key to the Apple's strategy is in the long run

"If your bearings in the long run, the interests of customers and shareholders are aligned" - Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon. 

The real question we should ask is whether Apple is oriented in the long term or otherwise endeavors to squeeze the company to satisfy Wall Street. And if we step back and strive to look at the forest instead of the tree, we see that Apple's strategy is called ecosystem: 

• An ecosystem creates loyalty to the company that controls it, because your customers are captive. 

• It's harder to get a customer who is really into it, change device. The more you invest in the ecosystem, the harder it is to change totally platform. 

• The user benefits translate into comfort and integration of different devices. 

Apple is placing their pieces on the chessboard with utmost patience and undistracted

And how can we know that Apple is building a robust ecosystem? At the conference of shareholders yesterday, Tim Cook shared many details: 

• Even I was surprised by the growth of iTunes accounts to 800 million. If we consider that at WWDC Apple said last year he had accumulated 575 million, we have a growth of 225 million. Here it seems that Apple itself may increase the growth rate.

• We are interested in the number of credit card accounts, the chances of Touch ID and Cook's statements about the possibility of including a system of mobile payments.

• ITunes sales for the quarter were 5,200 million, growing 24% and a cumulative 70,000 million downloads of apps. It is estimated that the App Store has generated 85% more revenue than Google Play in the March quarter. 

• The iPad generates traffic to 4 times the sum of all Android tablets, although its market share.

• The Apple Stores are present in 15 countries and have recently opened stores in Brazil and Istanbul. They have reported plans to double its stores in the next 3 years. 

• Apple bought 24 companies in the last 18 months. Some are more important than others such as Authentec, which was the technology that allowed the iPhone 5s fingerprint sensor.

All these data confirm us that the Californian company has always done: enhancing ecosystem services and to place the chess pieces in the right place. Quarter after quarter, device to device and year to year. Think long term, 5, 6 or even 7 plays later from what we see now, like the great masters of chess.

But iPad sales have fallen!

Yes, iPad sales have fallen and are not good news. Is it important? Yes. Apple would want a perpetual growth? Of course. But we must not read too much into one quarter. You can afford a drop in a quarter that is relatively bland in terms of sales (the next so often) when compared with Christmas because it has an ecosystem that protects it from these falls and allows it to counter the blows.

Those who say that Apple is finished, ignore the rest of positive data were confirmed in yesterday's conference:

• Sold 43.7 million iPhones when were planned 38 million. 

• Mac 4.1 million, slightly above estimates of about 4.03 million. 

• 66% of new activations iPads come from new customers. 

• Taiwan, Indonesia and Brazil have a double-digit growth. 

• Mac 4.1 million, slightly above estimates of about 4.03 million. 

• 66% of new activations iPads come from new customers. 

• Taiwan, Indonesia and Brazil have a double-digit growth. 

• India and Vietnam have doubled their sales. 

• 85% of buyers 4s in China are new to Apple. 

• There is also a 69% 5c buyers in China who are new. 

• A large percentage of these users come from China Android. But we had not been in a third of the buyers of the new iPhone Galaxy S5 come?

These data are particularly interesting given the saturation of developed markets. Apple is growing with more affordable terminals (but still scored in the high range) in China and India and part of Southeast Asia is a good sign. It shows that there is a market premium interested in their high-end products. 

It will be very interesting to see how Samsung and Apple face the growth of regional brands in the Chinese and Indian market, as the renamed Mi or Micromax. But we'll see in the future.

No more waiting, Angela Ahrendts will join Apple in a week

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Tim Cook confirmed yesterday during the press conference where they announced financial results for Q2 2014, which are incorporated Angela Ahrendts to Apple next week. A story that so belies the latest data that spoke of a delay in its incorporation until June. 

Angela Ahrendts has been CEO of the prestigious British brand Burberry and now in a position created specifically for her, will oversee the strategic direction, operations and expansion of both physical stores and online. Assuming the role of former Vice President John Browett in Eddy Cue in retail and online.

Now have to wait to see how they affect your decisions and what changes introduced in stores, both physical Apple Store and the online store.

Apple updates the firmware for the AirPort to protect them from failure Heartbleed

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Apple already said it was not vulnerable to fatal error called SSL Heartbleed, but apparently have been missing a few tweaks: the company has released an update for the AirPort Extreme and AirPort Time Capsule precisely to protect against this vulnerability.

According to Apple, this update (version 7.7.3 firmware) is only necessary in the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule AirPort wireless connectivity AC and Back to My Mac enabled. The other older models do not require this update.

If you have a recent model, then you touch update via Airport Utility tool OS X or iOS. And remember: computers and mobile devices from Apple do not need no security updates to protect against this. Nonetheless, we can take precautions.

Apple disabled the login iChat with AIM in June 30

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Fewer and fewer (19% according NetApplications MAC OSX) but are still there: those that use a previous version of OS X Lion 10.7.2 that they still have the iChat application on the system, and therefore need to know that Apple disables your logon AIM accounts from next June 30.

It's something that should affect a very small portion of all users of OS X, and even less in Spain where the AIM service was not very popular. I remember having used only with some friends from the United States and to identify with a nickname and not a full email address.

For everyone else, remember that iChat has become the Messages app that integrates with iCloud and iMessages. If by some chance you still using the AIM protocol, we still have alternatives such as Adium same application or official AIM client to use these messaging protocols.

Better, Apple's new video on the environment with the voice of Tim Cook

Add to Flipboard Magazine.
Better is the new video by reason Apple Earth Day and the environment and the environmental impact of the company as a central axis thereof adorned with the voice of Tim Cook.



Better is a new video of the company focused on the environment on the occasion of Earth Day, which is tomorrow April 22 and whose most notable feature is the use for the first time, the voice of Tim Cook , something rare among CEOs of various technology and the only reference to the narrative of the Think Different ad voiced by Jobs back in 1997.

The video puts into perspective Apple's use of renewable energy and commitment that makes when creating their products, as each generation that hits the market is even more sustainable, where each and every one of the components of these products, from the packaging to the production system and the services that support them, pose minimal environmental impact.

Better is in line with recent announcements of iPad, which under the name of Your Verse shows the full potential of the equipment whatever the situation, putting all the effort into the emotions aroused in different consumers.

The trip to iWatch

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Revolutions in technology occur when devices become everyday. We were seduced by the rumors, mirages of photomontages and excitement in presentations until the amazement of having it in our hands. Imagine the possibilities of a route initiated by any product that changes the rules and then spent the next.

We live in a world of information and revolutionary products. We are in an incredible moment in the history of our evolution: we've got the technology to get things that we had decades dreaming, and happens so often that not only got used to the speed. We asked for more. And run for it. But to realize the amazing changes and not have to read to leading analysts, or contrast thousand sources to see what they say currents of opinion. We have to go outside. Walking on the beach. Look at our surroundings.

Ten years ago, to see a mother take pictures of your child with a smartphone, in high resolution, and distribute the internet from the same sea, we would like an article of science fiction. Having hundreds of applications for just about anything, have a multi touch screen to us in your pocket, a tablet with the power of today ... just do not exist. Revolutions are not created with the concept of the product, but when it is installed in our lives. If we realize that, we will smile when we see all that we have achieved and what is already ingrained in our society.

But there are changes that must come. Do you have time?

Nike, Apple and the future.

One of the most interesting news of the weekend was the cancellation by Nike hardware unit responsible for making their popular Fuelband and the decision to continue a software developing and enhancing their sport system. It's an interesting move, in many respects. Let's talk about two.

First, Nike makes sure that it really feeds your business interactions with customers, is very much alive thanks to the "opening" Fuel system points to third party manufacturers. This allows the company to continue working on integrating its content in future new devices from other companies without spending a penny on a hardware division facing more problems than anything else. It seems they do not know quite what they had in hand, publishing opinions on them even in the social network anonymous Secret. Recall that Nike was one of the first companies to dive into the "wearables" devices.

 Second, Apple. Let's talk about movements: The Cupertino company takes months (maybe years) providing certain pieces in precise locations. I do not believe in coincidences, or fate, but I do believe in the plans: in August last year became public that Jay Blahnik, one of the key elements in the creation of the Fuelband, Apple were busy. In September we also learned that Ben Shaffer, head of innovation and new products in Nike, we also went to swell the list of our friends in Cupertino.

In Nike were the first to approach the world of "weareables" and now all that knowledge can be focused on a new Apple product ...

For years, the relationship between Nike and Apple has had great moments. The launch of Nike + iPod program launched in 2006 was a tremendous success, and one of the first major attempts to approach the "wearable" technology that is so fashionable today. They are great experts on staff quantification years. What better ally than them for a new product...of Apple?

If you now waved a meeting of the Board of Directors of Nike, you know who we find? At a certain Tim Cook. The current CEO of Apple no doubt has influenced the direction of the company to direct and concentrate efforts, Nike, to focus on developing its market, and Apple, to take advantage of all that know-how and concentrate on something new. Being Prepared: market research firms such as Morgan Stanley and warn that it is very good time to invest in Apple because in 2014 expected something big.

It's not a race, is a goal

Can we find one of the best "iWatch" imagined. However, it is still too predictable and competence like what Apple could present.

Actually, we call it "iWatch" by having a term to which refirnos the device, not because they necessarily have to be what you describe. As we called "iPhone" to your Apple then was much more than a phone. In fact it turned out to be far more than anyone imagined, and that ability to surprise in a market full of great visionaries, is one of the best features of Apple.

Ultimately, it is never the first. A couple of months ago I could see first hand at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona as other brands presented their "wearables" proposals with an eye askance at a company that not even attending the event. The word and say "see that Apple has" was more than real, were almost approaching storm clouds and have reasons. Were not the first with the Macintosh, or the iPod, or the iPhone, or the iPad. Are not the first, but are defining. And it's terrible to have a contest and stalking.

You can also think that the market for "wereables" is not as attractive as the above. Well, if you think that retroceded in time several months before the release of each product: anyone need a computer at home, the iPod is no more expensive than a music player with no future, "I do not want an iPhone because I just need to call and send messages "and the tablets are not useful there laptops. Now look around you. You smile??

The iWatch that we imagine

I'm using the Nike Fuelband wristband and I have a smart clock Pebble. I have explored the way that these devices can provide and assure you that the future is so broad that can mark almost a new category in itself. They have begun as a "complement" to our smartphones and few of them take advantage of the potential so close to our bodies. Not only with applications that already imagine, but to help us be more healthy, stay healthy and to measure and improve our physical capabilities. And there are also many signings in the field of medicine that are already in Apple.

Apple's goal is to not be predictable in a new device that real sense of this new category

If you ask me as you hope it is the "iWatch" I will say that I hope I do not look like any of its competitors, but who can see them all in what works and what does not. We can all imagine what a miniature screen with a wrist strap, but only Apple can give a return to the concept. And this company does not have to ask unless we want it back to being 1984, 2001, 2007 and 2010 I want to go talk about this 2014, in an article in five years and refer to it as the year in which Apple got it again.

We imagine the future: we think we are walking in the park, on the beach or traveling to the other end of the world and someone, somewhere, has something in her wrist did not get to imagine now. Nobody looks at that person, or that device. All carry one, and does things that amaze us now.

That point, that moment, that exact point in the future, is that we travel today.

Apple hires young medical star, with experience in FDA approvals, product development.

Add to Flipboard Magazine.
