iPadOS 14.1 now GA

Hi there, I hope this finds everyone doing well?  Things OK here. This new release of iPadOS doesn't have as many fixes as the iOS release but I still updated to it fairly quickly. I do not do over the air updates (OTA) as the cloud backups don't back up everything (they miss health data, … Continue reading iPadOS 14.1 now GA →

Hello there, While I have experience with iPadOS 14 I have none with iOS 14 and there are some key differences.  So I am glad it has dropped.

iOS 13.6 now GA!

Hello there, I saw this drop and it sounds interesting, as I hope to get a digital key for my car. The Apple News changes are interesting too. Plus it is always good to get the security and other fixes. I updated an iPhone 11 with no issues.  I did not do an OTA upgrade … Continue reading iOS 13.6 now GA! →

iPadOS 13.6 now GA

I did this update on my MBA running Big Sur and I must admit I liked the improvements that were a result of Big Sur.  More info on what is happening for example. I upgraded an iPad Pro 10.5 with no issues. And yes, I always do the upgrades using Finder as it is safer … Continue reading iPadOS 13.6 now GA →

macOS Catalina 10.15.5 now GA

This seems like a small update, but I certainly like the battery lifespan change.  Always good to have more battery life. The Facetime one seems quite popular with people too. I believe there is some security updates / fixes and that is always good. I have updated on 2020 MacBook Air and had no issues, … Continue reading macOS Catalina 10.15.5 now GA →

iPadOS 13.5 has dropped!

It was nice to see iPadOS 13.5 drop this morning.  It is not a big release, but they do imply there is bug fixes and improvements we may not know about via the release notes. But I do like the simplified unlock when wearing a mask. And security updates is always good. As always, I … Continue reading iPadOS 13.5 has dropped! →
