ireland said: Apple made it a point to tell users that the new MacBook Pro has a material change, and has a more reliable keyboardA bit generous, no? Failed design and embarrassment, this keyboard is. It’s like with the iPhone 4, there was no…

I bought the i7 MacBook Pro 15" 2018 rather than the i9 knowing that the i7 would likely do as well for volumes of work with minimal throttling. I would not buy an 8 core knowing that the i9 with 6 cores does not achieve its performance capabiliti…

As a user, I want to to be able to lock out my phone based on a simple principle. I have nothing to hide from anyone except to those who would use the banal information on my iPhone to harm me or those I know. That includes any government agency tha…

This request is designed to ramp up costs for Apple to increase the speed and size off the settlement. Typical action of lawyers who demand big bucks for being scoundrels. This litigious environment can’t be helpful to our society. Such actions by l…

Ok to buy books and other such commodities on Amazon. But electronics are another matter. The same problem exists on eBay and the like. I buy my Apple electronics from well-respected vendors like OWC, ProMax, MacMall and so forth rather than Apple t…

I just don't understand the logic of this discussion. Assuming 100% of all smart phones had zero encryption, there would always be many third party applications that encrypt messages on the fly. Many of them are free and quite effective. Most such …

I just wish Siri could do something as basic as opening applications. Something like, "Hey Siri, open Word." I still use keyboard commands using Quickkeys to open a number of applications. You would think OSX would have the capability to create shor…

As usual, Obama thinks the rest of us are stupid. Of course opening one iPhone opens the floodgates! The courts have no right to force any individual or company to allocate resources to fit their needs or society's needs without their consent. I kn…

It's somehow comforting to know that nether the federal government nor Apple can hack into my phone. That's the way it should be. We just need to find other ways to fight terrorism that do not jeopardize the privacy of millions of Americans. Apple i…

He did not say he would "force" Apple to do anything. There are many appropriate ways to "get" companies to use American labor - assuming they are available. Tim Cook says they aren't. Others say they are here. The truth probably lies somewhere in b…

I just leased a 2015 Lexus ES. I bought the base model that does allow bluetooth integration with my iPhone 5S. But it has limited capabilities. It integrates video, music and Contacts (up to 1,000 -- I have 1,600). So I can watch movies on the basi…

Even if Time Machine has a bootable partition, it still doesn't provide all of the benefits of an external, bootable clone. Should your primary computer loose a HD or have to go to the shop for repairs, then all you need to do is use your external…

LinkedIn has attracted some significant business for my signify business. Facebook does not cons think for B2B at this point in my opinion. Twitter does show promise, but more as a distribution tool for my blog. I signed up for this and it works gr…

Congress already knows the fix but it is contrary to present political leanings. That is to reduce corporate income taxes bringing them in line with competitor nations. If this were done, then the government would actually increase it's tax base by…

I also have this problem with an early 2011 MacBook Pro 8,2, 2.2 GHz. When it does it, it goes into hibernation or it shuts down. Upon restart the system corrupts requiring a full OS restore. Wonder why the update does not address this issue for thi…

If Apple can't make money on E-books against Amazon, then so be it. Apple will simply get out of that end of the business to make money elsewhere where the regulations, laws and environment will allow them to make money. I know that governments bel…

I wonder if things closely allied with California produce positive vibes anymore? Apple can't say "Made in America" anymore, so they opted for second best by aligning themselves with California. So I understand why they did this. Unfortunately Cali…

Who do you think paid that $6 billion in Apple taxes? We paid part of it every time we bought an Apple product. Corporate taxes are the same as sales taxes. Consumers pay for it when the company raises their prices to assure their profitability. If…

More power to them. Why should they do things to increase their expenses and decrease their return to investors! I congratulate them on avoiding taxes as any sane and lawful citizen or company should do. If the senators and others are concerned, te…
