Along with that, new versions of iWork have been release with Education in mind and we’ll go over some of those new features, too. iOS 11.3 and macOS 10.13.4 have been released with a few new features and we’ll spend some time reviewing those, too. And, of course, we'll go over some other current events in the macOS world as well as review some cool Mac & iOS apps and leave some time for Q&A.

The HomePod is finally a reality. Apple's smart speaker is more than just a speaker. It recognizes the environment where it's placed (near a wall, in an open area, in a room with another HomePod, etc.) and it adjusts the sound it produces based on its surroundings. The addition of Siri and the ability for it to be a hub for Apple's HomeKit makes the HomePod even smarter. We’ll have one on hand to demo! And, of course, we'll go over some other current events in the OS X world as well as review some cool Mac & iOS apps and leave some time for Q&A.

Once again, Apple has scheduled an announcement for the morning following our meeting. But, this time around, we have a pretty good idea of what's coming. We'll spend our meeting talking about new hardware and software and provide a little preview of iOS 11 and tell you what you're going to be in for. This will be great!

We’ll talk over the latest news in the Apple world for Mac and iOS, as well as the following topics: 1. Need a new router? Are Apple’s products End Of Life? How do I know what to buy? 2. Where can I ACTUALLY put folders? Can I put them in the Applications folder? 3. How to determine which album a photo is in and which photos are not in any albums in Photos. 4. Parental Controls for iOS devices and device management. 5. Help for the elderly using the Mac and iOS. 6. Getting power when there is no power coming through the grid. Batteries, generators and solar power. 7. Preparing a device for sale. How to know all your data is gone and it’s no longer associated with you or any of your accounts. 8. Need a new MBP? Should it be the current version or a generation ago to get old style USB ports? 9. Translations in general, and Ancient Greek in particular.

As expected, Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) brought not only announcements of new macOS, iOS, tvOS and watchOS, we also got new some new hardware announcements. Some are for immediate availability and some for for later this year. We'll have a complete rundown of all the announcements and we'll also discuss some other features and products Apple didn't include in the keynote. If you've been waiting for a new computer, this is the meeting to attend so you'll get your questions answered about what's new and how you can migrate. And, of course, we'll go over some other current events in the OS X world as well as review some cool Mac & iOS apps and leave some time for Q&A.

We've had a slew updates recently for macOS, iOS, tvOS and watchOS. We'll spend some time talking about not only some of the cool new features in macOS and iOS, but we'll also cover the significant new Apple File System (APFS) that snuck in right under your nose in iOS 10.3. This is a precursor of things to come in macOS and you should know what it is and how it will affect your Mac. We'll also talk about the end of 32-bit apps in iOS and how you can identify which older apps will no longer work in the next version of the operating system on your iPhone and iPad. Apple also released some iPad updates recently and they've hinted about new hardware to come. We'll tackle that, too! We'll also spend some time focusing on the Extensions architecture in macOS and how you really take advantage of some hidden features that can really make things easier for you. And, of course, we'll go over some other current events in the OS X world as well as review some cool Mac & iOS apps and leave some time for Q&A.
