We are already in the first weekend in which many of you will be reading these lines from a desired destination, be it beach or mountains, and vacations have finally arrived for a large part of the population. In any case since Soy de Mac We continue to keep all our readers informed with the already usual Sunday compilations.

In this week many things have happened and it is that in Cupertino they have had to make a very unpleasant decision and that is that at first it has had to block Apple's Greek website due to the problems that the country is roasting about. However, on the other hand it has also been a week in which those of the bitten apple have put their new iPods into circulation. 

Let's start with the compilation of news that we have published in the last week on Soy de Mac. As we have told you, this week has been somewhat complicated for the inhabitants of Greece and the debt that the country has with the European Union has forced Apple to close its website because it was known first-hand that the liquidity of users was frozen.

Another news of the week was the landing of Apple Pay in Europe, more specifically in the United Kingdom. There is less left for Apple's payment method to reach Spain. While we here in Spain hope to be able to try this payment service in many establishments with the convenience of to be able to do it directly from our iPhone o Apple Watch, users in the Anglo-Saxon country already have it officially available.

We continue with the reminder of an article that, personally, I liked a lot and it is power modify the appearance of our Mac by modifying the OS X icons using the free app for a limited time Image2icon. With image2icon you will be able to create custom icons for your favorite folders or applications and all of this is compatible with various systems, both for OS X and for iOS and others. It is not the only application that we can find on the net for this purpose, but in this case, it is a very simple and fast.

We end today's compilation with the news of the arrival of the new iPods. This is a color update for the iPod nano and iPod shuffle and a refresh in colors and internal hardware on iPod touch. In the case of iPod touch we will be able to select between 16, 32, 64 and 128 GB of storage and enjoy a new 64-bit processor. Another important change is the new iPod touch camera. It now has a resolution of 8 megapixels, equaling the latest iPhone, with an aperture of f2.4 and a five-element lens.. The front camera is still at 1.2 MPx with an aperture of f2.2 and automatic HDR for photos and video. Its resolution remains at 720p while the rear has 1080p.

That is all for today. We can only remind you that we will continue to publish the latest news that happens in the world of Apple during the next week and we will see each other again in a new compilation next week.
