Apple makes very good keyboards, but some users don’t like the feel of the keys–that’s important, especially if you spend most of your day working at your Mac. Many people like the clicky feel of a mechanical keyboard, and you can get a discount on some clicky goodness on Amazon.

Amazon is selling the Logitech MX Mechanical Mini for Mac keyboard for 26 percent off the regular price–it’s $111.51, down from the regular price of $150, the best price we’ve ever seen. Читать дальше...

I don’t need to have a new iPhone every year, just the procedure of changing over with various authentications is sometimes a bit annoying.

Apple’s fees for iCloud+ storage tiers are a sore point among enough people that I’ve seen the question come up repeatedly: How can I be sure I have a local copy of all my files if I want to reduce my iCloud+ storage payment or stop paying for iCloud storage at all? (Apple includes a meager 5GB of storage for all iCloud accounts; iCloud+ starts at $0.99 monthly for 50GB of storage.)

Time Machine isn’t the answer, nor are any volume-cloning or archive tools, local or internet-based. Читать дальше...

With news that iPadOS 18 might bring a calculator to the iPad we’ll refresh our memories as to why the iPad doesn’t have a calculator right now, and what the alternatives are if you want to do some math and it’s the only device you have handy.

Ever since the iPad first arrived, there’s been a curious omission in the apps that come preinstalled by Apple. Whereas the iPhone, Mac, Apple Watch and even the iPod touch feature a calculator as standard, there’s never been one on the iPad. Читать дальше...

It’s pretty universal at this point to keep a smartphone charger by your bed, usually so you can charge your phone while it rests on your nightstand.
