If the majority of Mac purchasers were new to the platform, that suggests a vast number of potential sales to existing upgraders if only they could be bothered to introduce any new systems!
-
Those who have stuck with El Capitan are not safe from reprehensible problems either - there is some sort of a bug with Spotlight which many people are experiencing, caused by the last Safari update (seemingly unlikely but true), which means that if…

Totally agree with Oppenheimer, but I would go further. It seems to me that Apple at present is led by a logistics guy and a guy who is focused on perfect (in his view) physical design. They just don't have a real PRODUCT visionary at the top table.…

Apple have really missed the boat with TV, and I cannot see how they will recover from this in the TV space. They have paid too little attention to it and allowed everyone else to overtake them. This is part of why I have just sold all my Apple …

I sincerely hope that the new bookmark UX is vastly better than the existing one, which is rubbish. They could just port across the bookmark system from Firefox and I would prefer it. In particular the lack of drag and drop into the bookmarks bar is…

I hope he can fix some of the most egregious UX errors with Maps. In particular, the fact that having plotted a route you cannot hide the directions on an iPad, so you only have a limited area of the screen to see the route on the map. Why can't y…

I hope they shortly release a version of this update for the mid-2015 iMacs (and maybe others if they also need it). Mine has a number of USB issues including the keyboard not working after return from sleep, and other USB devices (including hubs) l…

"People are not compelled to take a credit card nor are they compelled in what they choose to buy with it. Let the debtor and the buyer beware!" The neo-liberal view! A view that is based on a very narrow view of the world which doesn't take accou…

@Lymf: Great post. Couldn't agree more with everything you say. The banks are the only people who benefit from credit cards in the long run - many "poor" people here in the UK are poor because they are crippled by the debt they have taken on which c…

Yay! I'm all up for one. Personally I would be most happy with a 4" screen model which was as thick as the 4/4S to provide excellent battery life. At present I am sticking with my 4S until a new model comes along that is smaller than a 6. Features t…

Why most AppleTVs purchased in the UK are never used: No BBC iPlayer No ITV Player No 4OD No Demand 5 Pretty much ALL of the competitive products support some or all of these, but Apple seemingly don't care at all about streaming TV in the UK, w…

I am holding off from updating to this new humourless and austere updated version for as long as I can. The old version worked fine, and the features of the new version do not for me outweigh the downgrade in the factors that Apple used to specialis…
-
Until they put BBC iPlayer on there AppleTV is not going to be actively adopted/used in the UK. iPlayer is on almost EVERY other platform - it's a disgrace and a big embarrassment that it's not on AppleTV, particularly as it has been on other iOS de…

"Apple really never says much about OS X Server.". Yes, but the developer preview is available and that must mean that its features are well known. There has been lots of reporting about the features of the client OS based on its developer previews,…
-
Why has there been pretty much no coverage on the features we can expect to see with the server version of Mavericks? Given the availability of the betas it must be known what the new version is going to offer, but despite searching far and wide I h…

Maybe, but we are not there yet and right now OTA TV in the UK at least is in large part excellent and free, and people will not adopt something else if it doesn't embrace this. Stop thinking in a US-centric way and recognise there is a much bigge…
-
Please get a worldwide perspective on this. OTA TV is not rubbish everywhere - in the UK it varies between acceptable and excellent. I (and I suspect most people) will only switch over to using an Apple TV experience for a majority of my viewing (wh…

Check out the Apple discussions board for the many other people who have ecxperienced the same issue. It's not just me, and no, I really don't think it is just this Mac. The Mac works absolutely fine when Safari isn't running for weeks at a time w…

The freezing issue which happens when you use Safari on certain Macs. Doesn't happen on all models but every time I launch Safari I can guarantee a hard crash (UI frozen apart from mouse cursor). Sound keeps playing but you can't do anything with …
