Goodbye, MobileMe – transition to iCloud with MacWorks

Whether we like it or not, Apple officially pulls the plug on MobileMe features beginning June 30, 2012.  That means you need to have everything transitioned to iCloud by that point… preferably sooner than later.  This isn't a simple transition.  Do not wait until everything breaks; we cannot fix it.  Any of you who are still using MobileMe -- more than Contacts, Calendars and Mail -- need to look into supplemental solutions to fill the [...]

AppleCare for iPad discontinued, AppleCare+ March 16

If you're concerned about protecting your iPad for two full years, now may be a good time to purchase AppleCare.  As of March 16th, Apple will discontinue normal AppleCare for iPad and replace it with AppleCare+.  That means a higher purchase price compared to the current plan but adds a cheaper replacement option for damaged devices.  We believe that AppleCare is absolutely necessary for a Mac, but for an iOS device... it's a questionable investment.

The new iPad, Apple TV and lots of updated software

This morning brought goodies and toys to all girls and boys in Apple's realm of influence.  Apple's CEO Tim Cook spent a few minutes going over some very impressive numbers like 25 Billion app installs, 350+ Million iOS devices sold-to-date, and 62 Million sold in quarter four 2011.  Wow.  Apple's stock finished up for the day.  Historically, the stock price takes a hit during big reveals due to rampant pre-keynote speculation by wannabe analysts who [...]
