"we are apple, you will do it our way"

"we are apple"

yeah i tried to run an app that controlled time and and one that ran dos 3.0 and steve jobs personally vetoed them both.

caek, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 20:00 (fifteen years ago)

none of this new stuff thrills me

In contrast, this does:

(Already announced but this is some early confirmation from developers. That being the case I'm likely going to hold off on the presumed September iPhone upgrade in favor of what sounds like will be a full LTE version next year.)

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 8 June 2011 14:45 (fifteen years ago)

I find it amusing that apple is so anti pr0n

Latham Green, Wednesday, 8 June 2011 14:46 (fifteen years ago)

They don't like pr0n apps, but porn works quite fine on all Apple devices, trust me.

Meanwhile, corporate campuses...of the future!!!

He clearly lives in that outfit, doesn't he:

oh man he is so ill

caek, Wednesday, 8 June 2011 14:50 (fifteen years ago)

I don't dwell on Jobs' morbidity, but I do wonder if he's thinking at this point he wants to get as much done as quickly as possible before he's gone.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 8 June 2011 14:54 (fifteen years ago)

haven't had a chance to read up much on this, but how resource hungry is lion looking to be?

i'm not liking the idea of all this extra whiz stuff if it compromises the speed of my machine. just got a new imac and i'm loving the fact it can take pretty much any video or audio stuff i throw at it.

Crackle Box, Wednesday, 8 June 2011 14:58 (fifteen years ago)

I trust you MH.

Finally, the new accessibility options Apple has included in iOS 5 are nothing short of incredible. You can enable the LED flash to blink during alerts, and you can even create your own custom vibration patterns for specific contacts by tapping out patterns on the display

not that I actually feel the vibration, but this is cool.

dan selzer, Wednesday, 8 June 2011 15:52 (fifteen years ago)

more bells and whistles

Latham Green, Wednesday, 8 June 2011 16:30 (fifteen years ago)

yes, all kinds of new tones. But this is a feature you don't hear.

are there any more details about autosaving? i love the idea that nobody ever has to "save" anything, ever, for any reason - but i'm also wondering how you make versions happen.

40% chill and 100% negative (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 9 June 2011 12:26 (fifteen years ago)

well you can flip back through the autosaves time machine style and presumably save as if you want to create a second document

ice cr?m, Thursday, 9 June 2011 12:52 (fifteen years ago)

yeah, that makes sense.

one more q: this is so obvious it must have been asked, but i can't find an answer about what happens when your music won't fit on a device. my iphone doesn't have the space to store all my music. so how does the iCloud know what to put on it?

40% chill and 100% negative (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 9 June 2011 13:30 (fifteen years ago)

I assume you tell it what to put on it, just like you do now with playlists.

I've been downloading stuff I bought using my phone that wasn't currently on it via the iTunes app; it all ends up connected to the "Purchased on this iPhone" playlist.

low-rent black gangster nicknamed Bootsy (DJP), Thursday, 9 June 2011 13:33 (fifteen years ago)

I'd hate to have to systematically sync my "purchased" playlist since it mostly contains drunkenly shazam-ed atrocities.

licorice oratorio (baaderonixx), Thursday, 9 June 2011 14:16 (fifteen years ago)

Sounds like that would be a brilliant playlist!

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 9 June 2011 14:17 (fifteen years ago)

can I get a whut-whut!

how does the iCloud know what to put on it?

I hate these DRm itunes purchases - why should I have less ability to do things with files I actually paid for? so idiotic

Latham Green, Thursday, 9 June 2011 20:09 (fifteen years ago)

Do you mean video or apps? Because they dropped DRM on music files a long time ago.

mh, Thursday, 9 June 2011 20:10 (fifteen years ago)

it was music but the drm is stil there apparently

Latham Green, Thursday, 9 June 2011 20:15 (fifteen years ago)

On existing files you downloaded in the past, or recently downloaded ones? I think you should be able to use the new redownload functionality to grab fresh un-drm'ed copies if you want.

mh, Thursday, 9 June 2011 20:23 (fifteen years ago)

I better befuckinable to!
if someone had this issue with mp3's of mine that they had downloaded I would be pissed at apple. poor customer service, but that is mainly the RIAA not getting it again

Latham Green, Thursday, 9 June 2011 20:26 (fifteen years ago)

also the thing about "you have authorized too many computers to play these files" why dont you just put up a sing saying " STEAL MUSIC ITS BETTER THAT WAY"

Latham Green, Thursday, 9 June 2011 20:28 (fifteen years ago)

Turns out us Britishers aren't getting cloudtunes after all. At least not this year.

If Steve Jobs was Davros the Daleks wouldn't be covered in all those buttons.

James Mitchell, Friday, 10 June 2011 07:51 (fifteen years ago)

Why do you think he ripped the shell off himself?

Alba, Friday, 10 June 2011 07:56 (fifteen years ago)

Oh no, wait, he still had the bottom bit, doesn't he? Good point, well made.

Alba, Friday, 10 June 2011 07:57 (fifteen years ago)

actualyl steve jobs designed ILXOR - taht is why its so stripped down

Latham Green, Friday, 10 June 2011 12:34 (fifteen years ago)

Having a hell of a time trying to work out how icloud will work for families who share an apple id but want unique icloud/mobileme functions per person (e.g. email address, file storage). Google proving useless atm. Perhaps I should just wait until people actually get to use the thing.

I'd assume playlists

low-rent black gangster nicknamed Bootsy (DJP), Sunday, 12 June 2011 23:32 (fifteen years ago)

it's already a pain the ass to sync two iphones on one machine. every time I do this I forget to log out my wife from itunes and it half-syncs all these apps I didn't buy, and then can't use.

is there a book or something i can buy that explains, in technical detail, how mac os x works

markers, Monday, 13 June 2011 01:46 (fifteen years ago)

if so, please refer AA to it

mh, Monday, 13 June 2011 01:50 (fifteen years ago)

But really I would recommend digging around arstechnica.com for their history of OS X articles. They're long-winded, but really informative for that sort of thing.

mh, Monday, 13 June 2011 01:53 (fifteen years ago)

lmfao mh, i was literally JUST reading a john siracusa article (although not one of his mac os x reviews, which i should go read [at least the latest one])

i also listen to his podcast hypercritical -- http://5by5.tv/hypercritical -- regularly

\(^o^)/

The short answer is "don't share an apple ID", tbh. Have separate IDs and separate iTunes accounts.

(You can still download apps the other has bought by signing into the store as them)
