Apple Stuff

Thanks,

Looks similar, I've been playing around with different settings and will stick with what I had it as.

I ordered mine via apple store online, on the friday I was on my laptop and just kept hitting f5 after 8am. Store went live and just went through the process of ordering it.

Email 2 seconds later said I was in shipment 1 - 3rd of november - happy days.

I text my mate who was doing the same after I bought mine. His email was stamped at 1 minute later (lol slow) and his date is open ships in 3-5 weeks. His still hasn't been shipped.

Guess we both just got lucky

Back up your music downloads while you can:

Apple is scheduling a complete phase-out of music downloads from the iTunes Store by early 2019, per sources at the company.

Apple is aggressively scheduling a phase-out of music downloads from the iTunes Store, according to multiple sources tied into the platform or working at the company itself.

I would feel pretty satisfied about the fact that I've continued to buy so much stuff on CD... but I do still have a bunch of individual song downloads tied up in iTunes...

Sounds scary at first, but then it makes a lot of sense: I’ve not bought a single thing from iTunes since subbing to Apple Music. Why would I? Clearly they’ve done their homework on me

As long as my legacy downloads still work, I’m okay with this.

Completely agree, also it frees up some mega storage for me from my POV.

Plus your entire iTunes (bought) is just leased anyway.

One thing with this change thats annoyed me though is the app store, they have done the same with the app store in the last update to itunes and a couple of apps that I used didn't copy over and I couldn't get them onto my phone turns out they are no longer on the app store

Picked up a fast charger and cable st the Apple store today.

Doesn’t make that much of a difference for the x or not that you can realistically notice. I normally charge it with the 12w charger.

However it makes a MASSIVE difference on the iPad Pro.

Is it possible that they were 32-bit apps and the developer gave up on them? 32-bit apps no longer work on a modern 64-bit OS...

Very possible and probably very likely the explanation.

Become use to not using it now, so all is good.
