Apple has introduced new iPhone, iPad, and Watch devices. Learn more. Presentation Tips for Improving Watch battery life.
Long Topic #1: Accessing an external disk using the iPhone or iPad
We know that the first way to backup your iPhone used to be to your Mac. Then Apple added the ability to choose between backing up to the Mac, or to iCloud which is now the preferred method. However, two years ago, Apple added the ability to access an external drive (Thumb drive or SSD) from an iPhone or iPad. I will talk about the hardware needed to accomplish this, and the Apple Files app to make it all work, as well as how to store an iPhone/iPad backup on an external disk. Presentation.
Long Topic #2: New M3 Chip Computers
Apple last week announced new more powerful than ever computers. These new computers are running the latest and greatest Apple silicon chip, the M3 family. This talk will outline the M3 family, why their manufacturing is unique, and what that does to their processing power and energy consumption. Then we will go into the 3 new computers based on the M3 family, what their specs are, an some entry level pricing. Presentation. More about MacBook Pro Memory.
