September 13, 2024 • Apple Event Breakdown
Welcome back! We hope your summer was restful, or fruitful, or whatever you wanted it to be. In case you didn't make it back to civilization by this past Monday and you missed Apple's "Event," we've got you covered … or rather, Bradley's got news for you.
Apple, in a more than one-and-a-half-hour presentation introduced iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 (with Apple Intelligence), an all-new Apple Watch Series 10, Apple Watch Ultra 2, AirPods 4, AirPods Pro 2 (with hearing health features coming this fall), and AirPods Max. Whew! That's quite a list, but Brad will attempt to condense all that information into an easy-to-digest three-course session without all the extreme Apple production hoo-ha of the announcement video (which, by the way, available for viewing at you leisure, should you have one hour, thirty-eight minutes and fifty seconds to spare).
The meeting will open with Brad diving right into the meat of the Apple Event. If there's time, and he hasn't lost his voice, Brad will then field your questions on any and all things Apple. Following the Q&A we'll make some important announcements and we'll close with Donald's Member Appreciation Raffle.
This meeting is sure to be rich with facts and information you can use, so make sure to arrive on time so we can start the meeting at 7pm. See you then!
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 SIG In 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. |
