Thoughts on Apple Keynote?

Hi all, For the first time since I got my first iPhone and Mac in 2009, I missed the Apple Keynote. I plan to watch it this weekend, but I’d love to hear people’s thoughts. From the preview that Apple sent, it sounds like, as anticipated, Apple talked a lot about their incorporation of AI,

Hi all, I live in the US, but am in Italy right now. I’m getting messages that I have an IOS update ready to install, but am hesitant to do so. Does anyone know if the version my phone downloaded will be the US version, or the Italian one? My phone language and region are set to English US.

Somehow I locked myself out of my Blogger account. Appreciate any help

Hi all, So when I went to log into my blog on my Mac, I received a prompt from VO asking about using my gmail account in other apps. I said no, because I didn’t want to set up gmail and all that. But it seems that in doing that, I caused other problems. I can still modify the blog, but I
