My mom was kind of upset when she noticed that her x max was pretty much the same size as her 8plus she had. I use to have a note myself and loved the fact that it took up a fair bit of space.

Yesterday, I went to a remote Best Buy retail store where, as I expected, there were almost no customers. The Apple section was completely deserted except for one very enthusiastic Apple representative. Although I had not fully recognized it myself, some part of me really wanted to be wowed by the 10 S Max in terms of its 6.5 inch display size. As you may recall, I have often stated that I am not ready for Face ID yet, I discovered that I was somewhat open to purchasing a 10 S Max if it could wow me, enough. Five years or so ago, I had a friend who owned one of the first modern phablets, the Samsun Mega. I believe the screen size was 6.3 inches. Its physical size was so large that every time I used it, I felt as though I was a little kid playing with a grown-up's device. I just couldn't stop grinning, every time I held it in my hand. It was huge Yet, despite its size, I really, really liked it. It felt, just as the term phablet implies, like a cross between a phone and a tablet computer. Believe it or not, I found myself finding ways to spend more time with my friend just so I could play with that Samsung Mega. (smile) I almost bought one for myself but, at that time, I just didn't like Android enough to make the investment. Soon after, Samsung stopped making the Mega. So, yesterday, as I entered the Apple section of the store, I suppose, on some subconscious level, I was hoping to see that same huge form-factor on the 10 S Max. It didn't happen. In fact, believe it or not, the actual body, or form-factor of the 10 S Max is almost identical to my 8 Plus. I was so disappointed. I was so disappointed, in fact, that the

Another Great Face ID Failure Story, I Can't Get Enough of Them, (Smile)
Hello Everyone, As you may know, I am not yet sold on the reliability of Face ID. A sighted friend of mine, a big, big big fan of Face ID is always telling me how much he loves Face ID and how well it works for him; to which I always reply, "Good for you." Well, he recently purchased the 10 S Max along with a new garage door opener which is supposed to be activated via Face ID, when he approaches his home. Last night, he called me at approximately 11:30pm. Since it was so late, I feared that he had some kind of family emergency but no; he called complaining that he could not get into his garage using his iPhone because Face ID would not recognize him in the dark, in his motorcycle helmet as his bike approached. He said, to his dismay, even when he took his helmet off, the phone would not recognize him in the dark. I could not stop laughing. I don't know why he called me as we have not spoken in quite some time but I suspect that he just wanted to vent to someone who would care either one way or the other. What made me laugh even harder was the fact that he had been so confident in Face ID on the new phone that he decided not to purchase a remote control for the garage door system. He was so angry at Face ID and the phone that he could not let it go. (smile) He sent me a text, today, telling me that he purchased a remote control for the opener. Just another great Face ID failure story, I can't get enough of them, (Big Smile). Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.

Re: Just press record Siri shortcut

Is There An iOS 12 VoiceOver Screen Refreshing Problem?
Hello Everyone, Does the VoiceOver gesture of 3-finger swipe down from top to bottom no longer work? In iOS 11, this gesture would cause the screen to refresh and VoiceOver would announce this by saying something like, "refreshing app." Now, try as I may, I cannot get this gesture to refresh anything on any app. Also, single-finger double-tapping the status line, located at the top of the display, no longer consistently scrolls the display back to the top. Sometimes it does, and sometimes, it does not. Since updating to iOS 12, I have noticed that there appears to be some kind of screen refreshing problem when using certain app such as Over Drive. For example, in situations where additional data is supposed to be automatically updated to match what is currently selected, nothing happens. In order to get the additional data, I now have to manually activate some kind of control on the page in order to get the page to update/refresh with the additional data. In the case of Over Drive, recommended books based on the current title in focus. I have kind of noticed this behavior in certain aspects of the Twitter app and also, I think, in one of my banking apps but I'm not certain as I have only now begun paying attention to this issue. Before I send a bug report to Apple, I want to confirm any or part of the observations described above. All replies greatly appreciated.

Apple should have included a USB-C cable with the new iPhone, Business Insider
Apple's big bet on the future of USB is increasingly looking like a rare misfire By Matt Weinberger Starting in 2016, the MacBook Pro ditched separate charging and display ports, and whittled everything down to two USB-C ports. Apple AAPL Apple 217.66 -2.37 (-1.10 %) Disclaimer Get real-time AAPL charts here > . Apple's newest MacBook Pro laptops got rid of the separate ports for charging and accessories, and instead whittled it down to two USB-C ports. . USB-C is hyped as the replacement for regular-old USB, also known as USB Type-A. It can handle charging, plugging in external monitors, and any and all other kinds of accessories from a single cable. It's neat! . But also, it means that you have to buy pricey, annoying dongles if you want to plug in any of the existing flash drives, mice, keyboard, or other gadgetry you already own. It's frustrating! . Ultimately, it's hard to take Apple's big bet on USB-C seriously when not even its own iPhones come with a USB-C cable. That's right: You can't connect a new iPhone to a MacBook or MacBook Pro without shelling out for a new cable or adapter. . It's an annoying oversight from a company that's known for nailing the details. A few months ago, our I.T. department sent me a mid-2017 model MacBook Pro to replace my fast-aging MacBook Air. To catch you up, Apple gave its premium, top-shelf MacBook Pro lineup a controversial new design starting in 2016. Its keyboard was flimsy and prone to breaking (hasn't happened to me yet, and largely fixed by a new model in 2018); some versions sported a strange Touch Bar above the keyboard (mine doesn't have one); and, worst of all, it replaced the traditional USB ports with the new, cutting-edge USB-C (the bane of my existence). Yes, it's the last one that really gets under my skin. Starting with the 2016 MacBook Pro, Apple took out the charging port, the mini-HDMI port, and indeed everything but a headphone jack, and replaced it with nothing more than two USB-C ports. It could be worse, though: The regular MacBook only gets a single USB-C port. It's easy to see where Apple was going with this move. USB-C offers many benefits over regular USB (which, by the way, is officially called USB-A) - it means that the same cable can be used for charging, for plugging in a monitor, or attaching any number of other accessories. And it sidesteps the most annoying thing about USB: The connector plugs in no matter which side is facing up. It's elegant in a way that feels very Apple-y, for lack of a better term. It also means that any USB-C charger can work with any USB-C gadget. When I'm traveling, I don't need to pack a separate charger for my Nintendo Switch - my MacBook Pro charger will power it up just fine. (I mean, I pack a separate Switch charger anyway, but that's because I'm neurotic, not because I have to.) If you have a phone or tablet that charges via USB-C, like a Google Pixel 2 or Microsoft Surface Go, you'd be able to charge it from there, too. This is the gear you would neat to give your iPhone the fastest possible charge. The cable on the right connects USB-C to Lightning - the kind of cable you'd need to connect an iPhone to the newest MacBook Pro line. Apple It's not unusual for Apple to get out ahead of the curve on new standards like this. The original iMac caught a ton of flack in the '90s for not including a floppy disk drive, but that turned out to be the right move, as the rise of the internet, re-writable CDs, and USB flash drives combined to make them quickly obsolete. This time, though, Apple may have outsmarted itself. Because while a handful of gadget-makers, like Google and Nintendo, have pushed boldly into the USB-C future, the rest of the world still runs on good ol' reliable USB-A. If you want to plug in your existing mouse and keyboard into the MacBook Pro, you still need some kind of adapter, hub, or dongle. It's what gadget-heads have dubbed "dongle hell," as plugging in everyday accessories becomes a headache. Indeed, the largest sign that USB-C just isn't quite ready for prime-time comes from Apple itself. Apple's newest phones, the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, do not include a USB-C cable, or a fast-charging power adapter with which to use one. That means if you buy Apple's most expensive new iPhone, which starts at $1,000, you can't use it with Apple's most expensive MacBook Pro without buying a new cable, or at least, an annoying dongle. All told, an Apple-branded USB-C cable, and a fast-charging wall plug to go with it, will run you another $70. It's not the end of the world; I have to imagine that most iPhone owners charge from the wall anyway, or at least own a computer that still has an original-recipe USB port. Still, it's a surprising oversight from Apple, which loves to boast about how well the iPhone and Mac work together. Software like iMessage and Photos works seamlessly across phone and computer, but a single cable, not in the box, makes it

I should have my watch in my hands tomorrow. Excited about it, one of the only apple things I can be excited about anyways. Mark I remember that phone loved it. I prefer bigger devices myself, and I want them to feel big. My mom was kind of upset when she noticed that her x max was pretty much the same size as her 8plus she had. I use to have a note myself and loved the fact that it took up a fair bit of space. Putting your phone in your back pocket um that's not me. My phone is normally in my front pocket or in a clip. I can't ever recall putting my phone in my back pocket. On 9/23/18, 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries wrote: > I can't wait!

Five years or so ago, I had a friend who owned one of the first modern phablets, the Samsun Mega. I believe the screen size was 6.3 inches.

I was so disappointed, in fact, that the Apple sales rep thought that I had taken ill and asked if I needed medical attention.

handbrake Question
Hi all, Can handbrake be used to import commercial DVDs into iTunes? My husband and I own a few TV series on blue ray. I'd be interested in storing them digitally, and watching them via Apple TV rather than fussing with the DVD. One series in particular is not available on iTunes, so it seems like the only way to accomplish this would be to import our DVDs, hopefully into iTunes. We legitimately purchased the series in question, so I'm not trying to violate copyright or anything. Can Handbrake be used for this?

Yeah Mark I was trying to get my hands on one today to have a look at but no retail store in my city has a demo version yet and none of them have real devices out for the public to view. Also with the 749 NZ dollar price, I might wait 6 months and see what happens incase they bring the LTE model out here in NZ, Currently there is no word but they didn't have the series 3 model NZ mobile providers don’t' want to have these second devices for some reason. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of M.

RE: Mark on iPhone 10 S Max and iWatch Series 4, Form-Factor
Hi Mark, Yeah I have had a plus sized phone before, it ws the 7+. I'm total so didn't get the increased resolution screen size, But it was a good size for the keyboard and my big fingers However I'm now use to the X and found it more difficult to type on the XS Max, But a real reason for me to not update is the pricing of the devices here in NZ, The XS 256 GB device is 2200 nZ dollars The prices just go up majorily from there. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of M.

You know, I do like to watch old episodes of the Twilight Zone and Star Trek on my 8 Plus. I can enjoy the video easily enough, most of the time. Yesterday, I had the sales person play a few videos and, no doubt because of my poor vision, I did not really notice an increase in frame size. Doubtless a sighted person would definitely notice the increase in display quality but to me, it was undetectable. The display would have to be much larger in order for me to find it easier to see.
