iOS 5.1 was released yesterday. This update introduced some changes to the camera app. iOS 5 gave us the ability to access the camera app from our lock screen. When the phone was locked and you clicked the home button TWICE – the icon for the camera app would appear next to the “Slide to [...]
This is how to delete photos in Photo Stream. First, if you have not updated your iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch to iOS 5.1 – please run software update and do so. (Find out how to update to iOS 5.1 here) The ability to remove photos from your Photo Stream is a new feature that [...]
As wonderful as Apple Photo Stream is (having all of your pictures on all of your devices is really amazing) – one big complaint was that you could not delete photos from Photo Stream. You were stuck with bad or unwanted photos until you either hit the 30 day limit or the 1000 photo limit [...]
Two new Apple commercials were released this week. Siri for Teens First Apple seems to be targeting teens with this commercial featuring Siri and the iPhone 4S (mom and dad – are you ready to foot the bill?): Siri and Travel I found this ad much more appealing. A young couple travels across the country [...]
Oh – how I hate to be the bearer of bad news. Along with iOS 5 came an awesome feature called Photostream. Take a picture with your iPhone, it shows up everywhere – your iPad, your Mac, on any device that syncs with your iCloud ID. A fantastic feature. For the most part. But then [...]
Photostream is one of the big features in iOS 5 and iCloud. To be honest – this feature has helped me in many ways – and I really do love it. But one thing has been bothering me – and I thought maybe I just didn’t know how to make “it” happen. What I found [...]

Do I need iPhoto 11 to use iCloud? It was a sneaking little suspicion I had. You see, before Mac OS X Lion was released – I made the jump to Aperture 3.0. So I never upgraded from iPhoto 09. Now I wish I could say that I never looked back – but Aperture, as [...]
My kids have taken to asking Siri all kinds of questions. And I have always joked that if she could do laundry and walk the dog – she would be absolutely perfect. So, of course, on the first day they asked her to take our pup Lucy for a walk. “Siri, please take Lucy for [...]
A lot of new stuff has come out of Apple in the last few weeks. Namely Lion, iPhone 4S, and iOS 5. Those that follow every Apple happening will be pretty clear on the difference. But it can be confusing as to what each one of these means. First up Mac OS X Lion. – [...]
My husband read a story this morning about how a man used the Find My Friends app in iOS 5 to discover that his wife was cheating on him. Apparently, this man set up his wife’s new iPhone 4S. He included the app and loaded up a bunch of friends. It seems he had suspicions [...]
