I do wish their was a way to get into the dictionary and change things on iOS so you could stop some words from showing up, but apple doesn’t even let you control sync on bookmarks (why can’t I have an overwrite cloud setting, and if you can’t not mess up my bookmarks why would I want to sync my music collection?).
Dennis Sellers at the Rocket Yard at OWC’s Blog has the best way to fix this issue. I did it years ago, honestly having 2 menu bars and docks is just confusing to me, but I have been using a mac with 2 monitors for a whole lot of years.
An article from Benjamin Mayo at 9to5Mac. Was stupid for Apple to not do this sooner, especially for iPhone users who have Windows.
And to finally add Apple Music integration to the XBOX, which should have been done years ago.
From Arin Waichulis at 9to5 Mac, this is worth a read.
I had never heard of StopTheMadness, which is not cheap (as you have to buy Mac and Mobile versions at $7.99 each) and the Mac version also works on Firefox and Chrome as well. It overrides websites attempts to lock out browser features, which is something I have been thinking about for a long time. It can also remove tracking tags, and URL shorteners.
OWC has an article on Softraid 7 which will add support for MacOS Ventura, and it isn’t recommended to upgrade until this is released.
I run Softraid for a work drive and a personal drive, so there is no way I can upgrade to Ventura until then. Honestly the shared iPhoto library is the most interesting feature to me.
Already I have been annoyed by YouTube, a recent update on Apple TV, has my TV showing a lost connection at every commercial break, which means huge delays on every commercial break. I have seen speculation that it might be the addition of HDR to the Apple TV app, which means that the commercials are different than the stream, and causing the lost connection and pause at every commercial break.
And as they add more commercials in every video it gets more annoying. And now it looks like they are moving 4K to the paid tier as well.
I can honestly say that it just doesn’t reach the $12 a month that is costs for YouTube premium, but it might mean I watch less YouTube videos.
After being briefly shown in Apple’s introduction video fro the new iPad Pro, Blackmagic Design has officially announced DaVinci Resolve for the iPad.
For now it will only have 2 tabs, the color tab shown above, and the cut tab.
Here;s hoping that the cut page will work with the DaVinci Speed Editor, which is Bluetooth, so that would only make sense.
They have also said there will be a free version and a paid Studio Version from the iTunes Store.
With the M2 Chip in the new ipad pro this should work, though the limited ram might be a bit of an issue, as will storage, so hopefully it will work well with external hard drives.
This will be released in quarter 4 of 2022!
How can Blackmagic Design manage this, when Apple hasn’t manged a version of Final Cut Pro for the iPad.
Jason Cross at Macworld has a really interesting article on the new A16 for the iPhone 14 Pro.
It seems it isn’t even really a 4 nanometer process, but an enhanced 5 Nanometer Process, just running faster with faster memory, but with none of what was expected for the A16.
And if the true A16 is delayed, it also might explain why the M2 for the MacPro is delayed and why Apple might not hit the 2 year mark on the Mac Pro moving to Apple Silicon.
From Ben Lovejoy at 9to5Mac, these rumors could make for a pretty powerful mac, but so expensive I am assuming.
Of course this is just a rumor, but it is likely though higher than the previous rumored 40 core, and 128 core gpu.
And that M2 Extreme could cost many thousands more, and 384 gigs of RAM, I am betting we are talking $7500 more than whatever the machine costs.
Michelle DeLateur at ProVideo Coalition has an excellent article, “How to Troubleshoot HDR iPhone Footage in Premiere, According to Adobe“
It is a problem with tone mapping, which is currently handled best by the beta.
This isn’t necessary until you run into it, and go wait, it doesn’t look like this on my iPhone, but that has an HDR screen, so…
