  • Voters shoot down human rights committee proposal at Apple shareholders meeting

    It is commercial business - not activism. Take it elsewhere.

  • Verizon to join other carriers in temporarily locking new iPhones

    Well that is why I buy only unlocked devices and I do not rely on Verizon sold units. Not worth it. If they lock my devices... well meet my attorney.

  • Apple now has 27 self-driving Lexus cars on the road in California

    Whose liability in accident? Apple? Car itself or passenger? ... or maybye always other driver because "technology is superior and only humans make mistakes"?

  • Tips: If you're holding off on macOS High Sierra, turn off upgrade notifications for good

    A suggestion to author: Please publish trick to install High Sierra without converting file system to APFS and stayng with HFS+. I know there is command line for this to start installer. It was circulating on Internet. Many applications stopped working because of new file system and I do not plan to allow this convertion to happen and risk damage to commercial applications run for our business. I appreciate advancements in that space but I am opting out untill all software vendors flush out their issue, policies and solutions and this can take few years.

    I’ll never upgrade because of older Adobe software incompatibility. Sierra was the end of the road for me.
    Even when Sierra stops getting security updates in a few years? Living dangerously, my friend.

    That said, I wish Apple would slow down a bit. Every year is getting to be a pain.
    When you are behind firewall and do not use it to acces extrenal sites which may be policy in your company blocking your computer then you do not get exposed to this risk. And yes you can get updates and upgrades without access to Internet from target computer. I am not going to download Sierra or High Sierra from all my network computers to upgrade them while wasting bandwidth - I downloaded them once (installer lands in Application folder) denied access to continue installation and put that donwloaded file on network for reduistribution between computers).

    Also Adobe CS 6 requires Java 6 installation with that infamous special package from Apple. CC is another story and Adobe needs to figure out license verification on demand rather than on their schedule (people may be working remotely in places with no access to their servers validating licenses - this subject was discussed on Adobe forums. This is the reason people still stay with unsupported CS 6 and honestly I do not allow any background automatic downloads and installations to ANY software on computers and especially to Adobe (that's plain dumb and risky idea to run enterprise and every administrator will tell you that).
