My mother is a big fan of the iPad my wife and I bought her for mother’s day, and it’s completely changed the way she does things. She hasn’t been in Barnes & Noble in over four months, and she used to spend a good portion of her free time at the bookstore. For her,…
When your hard drive starts to fail, Disk Utility might not be powerful enough to save you. Instead, you might want to turn to one of the big guns: fsck. fsck, which stands for “File System Consistency Check,” is a command-line tool that reviews and repairs the underlying structure of a hard drive. If you’re…
It’s been talked about for a little while now, but Opera has been working on Opera Mini for the iPhone. Just yesterday they turned it in to the App store for consideration, and now they have a counter up on their blog – with a contest to boot, taunting Apple along the way. So the…
I had a hell of a weekend. I woke up around 5:30 or so on Saturday morning, and loaded into a Chevy Tahoe an hour or so later, headed from Arizona to California. My friend Chad owns a ’51 Ford Custom, and it was out being lowered at a shop in Los Angeles. It was…
Our current policy at AppleGazette is to never report anything that’s not “hard fact,” but I’m making a one-time exception for this. Because it looks like something big is going down at all the Apple Stores around the world, and that this Sunday is going to be a very special day there that you’ll want…
I’m a fan of cases for my devices. It’s not that I’m always trying to keep them in perfect shape, but I find that the iPhone – whether it’s the 4, 3GS or 3G – is too slippery for my hands, and I worry about dropping it. I don’t like a rubbery grip, but I…
Here’s a flashback video to the early days of the iMac when color was all the rage….
I remember one of the first times I saw an Apple product with the Colorware treatment. It was on My Super Sweet 16, that classic show on MTV from back in the day, and one of the kids had a yellow MacBook Pro. After doing some research, I found out that it was done by…
Earlier in the year Spotify began testing “lossless” audio files. And anyone who’s ripped a CD through iTunes has seen all the different ways audio files can be saved. Apple even provides their own lossless audio codec. But what is “lossless” audio, exactly, and how does digital audio compression work? How Does Audio Compression Work? …
Way back in November, I did a post about iPods and Your Car, where I discussed some of the options out there for iPod integration into your car or truck. At that point, I figured I had seen the end of iPod integration into the vehicle. Then today, I saw something on TV which made…
So we’ve all been there, that moment your iPhone slips from its snug home in your hand and falls in slow motion to the ground. You scramble, like Gollum after the ring that’s just been thrown into the fiery pit but you can’t get there in time. Precious! This happens a lot, but the good…
I’m not sure exactly why these stories come out, but they always do, and they never seem to get it right. I found a story from the AP today that’s titled, “Apple’s iPhone does well without being the best.” In it, there are a few choice quotes: But whether the iPhone has the best technology…
