One more week we arrived with our compilation of the most read and heard news in the world of Apple. This week we have finally attended the AirPods for sale, that a few hours after their arrival they were already sold out so only a few will be able to enjoy them in a couple of days while the rest of us mortals will have to wait until January for it.
In addition, we are reaching the end of the year and once again we have to take stock of what the blog has been for you throughout this year. From our side we can tell you that we continue with the same enthusiasm and enjoy each of the articles that we propose because, after all, what you read is nothing more than the result of experiences of five editors that we are lovers of this world of the bitten apple.
Let's just start this new compilation in which we can tell you that earlier in the week we were talking about Apple having also delayed the arrival of the BeatsX until February and that the AirPods were already arriving nothing more and nothing less than three months late. However, in this same week the news came unexpectedly that we finally had them available.
One of the essences of Apple operating systems is the simplicity to carry out any task. It is not surprising that in recent years it has gained many followers simply because of this virtue. Formerly both videos and music were seen mainly on the computer and sometimes on the mobile. But currently we have countless media to play them such as the iPod, iPad and Apple TV. This week we have told our readers about the possibility of the new macOS Sierra, natively, of be able to convert video or audio file formats so that we can handle any format in the applications of the system without problems.
This week we have also seen the launch of the new versions of tvOS 10.1, watchOS 3.1.1 and the adapted versions of iOS 7 and iOS 8 for the old Apple TV 2 and Apple TV 3. However, the joy of having new systems has not lasted for a long time and is that Apple had to untimely withdraw the new version of watchOS 3.1.1. one. because thousands of users reported that their watches had been blocked and not working.
The most veteran of the safe place who remember this successful campaign by Apple and related to Mac: Get a mac. This huge advertising campaign echoed the benefits of having a Mac versus a "boring" PC and it also revealed some aspects of the PC compared to the new Mac. Obviously it caused a great impact since it was about 66 short but intense advertisements of a Mac and a human-shaped PC talking about the details of one and the other. This week marks the 10th anniversary of the successful 'Get a Mac' ad campaign.
This week it was our turn for Mac users to receive the new version of macOS Sierra 10.12.2 official, and is that after the rest of the official versions of Apple were released: iOS, watchOS and tvOS, macOS has also arrived. In general, we cannot say that it is an outstanding update in terms of news, but it must always be borne in mind that the stability of the system is improved and the problems found in the previous version are corrected.
Although Apple released the new version of macOS Sierra 10.12.2, it was loaded with controversy when it was observed that the battery time indicator had been eliminated due to the problem that is occurring among users of the new MacBook Pro of 2016 claiming that the battery is lasting much less time than Apple has claimed in its own advertising. From Cupertino and while looking for a solution, have decided to remove the indicator.
