OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 released by Apple

This update brings a lot of improvements to OS X. I personally feel the Wi-Fi disconnection and slow web page load issue will make a significant change to the user experience.

Here is what you get with the latest update.

  • Resolves an issue that may cause Wi-Fi to disconnect
  • Resolves an issue that may cause web pages to load slowly
  • Fixes an issue that caused Spotlight to load remote email content when the preference was disabled in Mail
  • Improves audio and video sync when using Bluetooth headphones
  • Adds the ability to browse iCloud Drive in Time Machine
  • Improves VoiceOver speech performance
  • Resolves an issue that causes VoiceOver to echo characters when entering text on a web page
  • Addresses an issue that may cause the input method to switch languages unexpectedly
  • Improves stability and security in Safari
Download the update from Mac App Store. Apple also released iOS 8.1.3

Has anyone updated their Mac yet? Give me your feedback in the comments section.

Apple released iOS 8.1.3 / Reduces space required to update / Also releases OS X Yosemite 10.10.2

The second part of the title is catchy. iOS 8 user adoption has been  noticeably slower than iOS 7 and one of the major reasons was to clear up space on your iPhone before the upgrade.

iOS 8.1.3 is comparatively a small upgrade. Apple apparently is testing iOS 8.2 currently to be released inline with their Apple Watch ahead this year.

Are you expecting a feature or fix that you did not find with iOS 8.1.3? Make them hear in the comments section!

Apple rolls back Camera Roll

camera roll on iOS 8.1For those of you who were shocked seeing photos deleted from your iPhone after the iOS 8 update, you just got tricked by Apple. You would have figured that out by now.

With iOS 8.1 your Camera Roll makes a victorious return. If you have enabled your iCloud Photo Library, the 'Camera Roll' will be replaced with 'All Photos'.

Clean App Switcher in iOS 8

You see recent and favorite Contacts in App Switcher after upgrading to iOS 8. Wish you could take them down? Follow along!
When you double click your home button, you see your recent apps which you can quickly switch between. With iOS 8 you also see avatars of your most recent and favorite contacts.

This feature is useful, but if you like it clean, you can have your way.

To disable your contacts from displaying in the app switcher -
  • Launch your Settings app
  • Select Mail, Contacts, Calendar
  • Under Contacts section select Show In App Switcher
Toggle the switch to disable your recent, favorites, or both contacts.
