September 2023 • Presentation on Apple's Freeform App
Welcome back, LIMac-ers! We hope you had a restful summer vacation. We've had, let's call it, an interesting summer. But that's a story for another time and place.
We're excited to start our year with a discussion and demonstration of a recently introduced Apple app, Freeform. Late last year, along with updates to all three operating systems, Apple introduced Freeform, a collaborative, whiteboard, brainstorming application which comes free on every iPhone, iPad, and Mac supporting iOS 16.2, iPadOS 16.2, or macOS Ventura 13.1.
Bob Borchers, Apple's vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing described Freeform as, "… an infinite canvas, [with] support for uploading a wide range of files, iCloud integration, and collaboration capabilities, … [making it] a shared space for brainstorming that users can take anywhere."
A few of LIMac's board members will guide us through the intricacies of the Freeform app, unveiling its remarkable capabilities and highlighting how it can enhance your digital experience.
We will start the meeting with our always engaging Q&A session hosted by the knowledgeable Bradley Dichter, where you can get your questions answered and gain deeper insights into all your Apple devices and software. The main presentation on Freeform will follow the Q&A.
Before we wrap up, we'll share important updates and future plans from LIMac. Plus, don't miss out on Donald's Member Appreciation Raffle – an exciting way to conclude the event!
Mark your calendar and don't miss out on this opportunity to explore the innovative world of the Freeform app and engage with fellow tech enthusiasts. We look forward to connecting with you on September 8th and making this event a memorable one!
Your first meeting is FREE. Annual individual membership is $48.00, which covers all immediate members of your family. Please email Donald Hennessy at AboutLIMac@aol.com for details.
Be careful. Stay healthy.
 You’re Invited to the MacBasics SIGIn order to meet the needs of a wider range of members and not put off those with more than beginning skills, we’ve changed not only the name from Beginner SIG, but also the focus of our SIG. We will still cover applications like AppleWorks and simple procedures like setting up your first Mac, file systems and using utilities, but we’ve also matured, as much of Apple’s software and hardware has. So come on down. We'll be where we’ve always been, doing what we’ve always done, but with a new slant and a new name. The MacBasics SIG is led by Geoff Broadhurst and Rick Matteson. The SIG meeting is broken into two sessions. The first is from 7:00 to 7:30PM, during which we will have our own basic level question and answer session. We’ll break for the featured presentation and raffle and come back for the main portion of our SIG meeting from 8:30 to 10 o’clock. Of course before our MacBasics main demonstration we'll have our own novice Q&A session across the hall, while Bradley's dealing with the more complicated problems in the main room. As always come with questions. The MacBasics SIG is not just for beginners, but we do discuss aspects of the Mac that may sometimes be overlooked. There will be a MacBasics SIG meeting this month. The topic has not been announced. |
