Wouldn’t it be nice to have such widgets on the phone with iOS4? People has to bother and check 5-6 different apps (start, close, start again or switch between) in order to get the status updates. Sooner or later, you will do it for people to buy your next generation phone, Steve!
There is an online discussion between Apple and Adobe, after the restriction regulations, Apple took the decision iPhone App development and underlined that no Adobe product is allowed to develop applications. Today both companies holds press releases on their homepages.
Go a head click logos to read more about it. My personal idea is Apple should let it free, instead of censoring it. Steve Jobs has reasons but I do not agree with him.
I am using Cisco VPN Client on Mac. Today I have just understood that it causes kernel panics! Whenever it’s on, sometimes in 30mins sometimes in one hour.
I’ve just notified by Boot Camp to install the latest version 3.1, good to have a audio output without the red annoying light anymore. However the problem with the keyboard illumination still carries on. For your infomation..
Hello iPad.
Today Apple released it’s new piece of baby to be seen by the whole world.
The event was at 19:00 Germany time. I was on the way back home when I wanted to tweet something at around 19:30.. Twitter was overcapacity and reminding me to try again a few minutes later. I think the reason which made the twitter go over the capacity was the iPad. Steve Jobs was making the talking, audience was tapping the keys.
As expected iPad was the device, a bigger iPhone or iPod Touch. I don’t deny the device looks very classy and user friendly as an Apple gadgets owner. However I expect this device will also come with a short battery life.
I’ve also watched the video on their website and told myself again; yes, these guys really know to do the marketing. They really know to fascinate the people, audience. They are talking as if they made something from zero. This is how you should address to the potential customers.
I am seeing now in the blogs, tweets and statuses that people are impatient to have one.
They are offering the prices cheap and it’s in one way very true. On the other hand they are making big markets addicted to themselves. They are preparing the ground and than collecting the rents and the shares from all users.
I think Apple is one great leader of the on demand business, what they achieved with iTunes and AppStore tells so much. Now they are going in to the iBookStore, letting not only eBooks but also eMagazines, eNewspapers and anyother thing we are reading on paper, in hand. Congratulations.
After Toshiba, Apple betrayed me too!
Is the “Breakthrough Battery” slogan, a lie?
Apple is announcing here that “A built-in battery powers MacBook Pro for up to 7 to 8 hours on a single charge”. However mine even can’t afford the 4th hour (even with no keyboard illumination, at the lowest level of screen brightness and 2 min after turn-off screen mode, no USB devices or cards attached, no resource occupying process – simple pdf files reading) as well as losing it’s Battery Charge Level capacity!
My 1 month old MacBook Pro lost it’s Battery Charge Level by %9! plus the measurements are annoyingly inaccurate.

Current Batt Charge: 5074 mAh
Maximum Batt Charge: 5450 mAh
In average with Coconut Battery App measurements, usual capacity of 5450 mAh is now 5074 mAh and this is not good. After recognizing the fault, I contacted Apple Germany and they gave me some ideas about calibrating the battery (that’s why I wrote the article below) and calibration didn’t work at all. After each calibration, I’ve faced with more lower measurements.
So I am waiting for the MacBook’s Battery Charge Level to go below %80 as soon as possible (before 300 recharge cycles) and then I will ask for a battery replacement.
Catastrophe: Apple Customer Service in Germany, I had 3 calls, hold on the line for 15 to 20 mins in each, listening the “we are sorry for keeping you wait” jingle! at the end jingle listening + problem description = no solution took about 35 mins x3 = 105 mins in total! If you consider that they are charging around 1/4€ a min!
It was just money and time loss!
Just once in a month does sound acceptable! So give yourself and your MacBook a rest (actually you can continue working – no prob) and calibrate your battery for staying more time wireless. Here you will find the article about how this calibration is done.
For aliminium case macbook pro series;
- charge it full
- keep the cable plugged for 2-3 hours more
- unplug while the computer is on
- use the computer until the battery warning appears on the screen
- save your work and keep using it (ignore the warning)
- your notebook will turn itself down
- turn it off or allow it to sleep 5 or more hours (what about night or day long?)
- plug the power cable and let it plugged until LED light changes to green
Congratulations! Your Mac’s battery succesfully calibrated.
If you’re someone who wants everything tidy on your calendar like me, than you can get the iCal and merge it with yours. Same procedure is valid for your iPhone and/or iPod, if you own one.
For more information and tips, here you will find a very nice article.
P.S. If you notebook battery health goes below %80 before 300 cycles. You can request a replacement.
Today, while I was listening Last.fm from my brand new MacBook Pro, I’ve noticed that there is a unbalanced treble sound.
The speaker on the right side was predominant compared to the one at the left. I check the balance of the sound system from the System Settings and realized one more that there is a easily recognizable difference.
I checked the forums in the web and found out that it’s a common problem, so no worries 
just keep on loving your Mac. If you want to read more about it, click here.
