May 2022

A fairly quiet last few months, and not much happening on the Apple front. In hindsight this could be a good thing, as a lot of products are still seeing large delays in deliveries across the board. So everything is taking a lot longer to get then normal. So any new product would just add to this issue as well.

You can read more about some of the factory delays here and here

RIP iPod.

Earlier this month we saw Apple discontinue the iPod Touch - which was the last of the iPod range, so after 21 years we see the end of their “music player”. The device that pretty much changed the industry went through many iterations of the years.

You can read a bit of it’s history here.

You can see Steve Jobs introduce the first iPod in 2001 here

Have you considered if your computer stops working or could be down for quite a while?

If your computer crashes or is down for a long period time, or even if it’s going to be away for service work for a while, have you considered the down time this could cause to yourself, your work and/or business?

There is a way that an external drive can be set up beforehand where in these sort of circumstances you can still be up and running relatively easy - even if your computer has to go away for days to be repaired.

It’s a relatively cheap and easy process.

If you would like to find out more about how this can be set up for yourself or your business please feel free to drop me an email or call to discuss.

Be aware of “Fake webpages” advising you need to update.

So there is a bit of a rise on the number of webpages or fake links that will try to trick you into calling a number or clicking a link to “update” some piece of software.

I’ve written a page with a bit more info on it here
