Even though Apple did not invent the mouse pointer, history has cemented its place in dragging it out of obscurity and into mainstream use. Its everyday utility, pioneered at Xerox Parc and later combined with a bit of iconic* work from Susan Kare at Apple, has made the pointer our avatar in digital space for nearly 40 years.

Four new iPad Pro models were temporarily listed in a Chinese user manual for iPadOS 13 on Apple's website, including two 11-inch and two 12.9-inch models, as spotted by the blog iPhone in Canada. The new model numbers include A2228, A2229, A2231, and A2233. Apple removed all four models from the user manual earlier today.

Apple today announced that iPadOS 13.4 will feature trackpad support for all iPad Pro models, the iPad Air 2 and later, the fifth-generation iPad and later, and the iPad mini 4 and later. The software update will be released on March 24. Trackpad support paves the way for Apple's new Magic Keyboard for 2018 and later iPad Pro models, coming in May, as well as third-party options.

Mouse support for iPadOS is a game-changer.

Apple's tagline for the new 2020 iPad Pro models is “Your next computer is not a computer.” It’s a cheeky way of addressing the tension that’s at the heart of most iPad Pro purchases: they cost as much or more than many laptops but may not be able to replace your laptop.

Up until now, the iPad Pro 12.9-inch has been a quasi-computer. It was really more like a tablet on steroids, beating a lot of laptops on speed and battery life but certainly not on computing comfort. That changes with the new iPad Pro, which for the first time fully supports cursor input, and a new Magic Keyboard (coming in May) that adds a trackpad.

Nickel is everywhere — jewelry, coins, zipper, eyeglass frames and, apparently, portable electronic devices. It’s not that big of an issue – unless you’re allergic. An 11-year-old with an itchy rash may have been allergic to his own iPad — or the nickel it may have contained — according to a report released Monday in Pediatrics.

Four years after Apple introduced its popular tablet, many districts are switching to laptops.

For months, there have been rumblings throughout Apple's supply chain that the company is working on a new iPad with a larger screen. On Tuesday, those mushy rumors got a bit more credible when Bloomberg reported that Apple plans to launch a larger iPad with a 12.9-inch screen in early 2015.

On the heels of a major launch of large-screen iPhones, Apple has scheduled an October 16 event to update its iPad line, technology news website Re/code reported Friday. The event also will include a look at next-generation software for powering Macintosh computers, Re/code said, citing unnamed sources.

The idea behind the Apple SIM that comes in the new iPads is most excellent: one SIM, many carriers. Whenever you want to switch carriers, you’d just pop into settings and pick the new one. If you want to bring your own SIM, you can — but otherwise, everything happens through software. No swapping SIMs, no ordering new SIMs, no hassle.

As they do each year, Apple has just dropped its hand picked list of its favorite iOS apps. Many of them are things you’ve probably seen before — but many of them are pretty unheard of...

As long as there are smartphones and tablets, games geared for kids, and kids with enough time on their hands (and creativity) to thwart their parents' security measures, there will always be kids racking up huge charges on their parents' accounts. That's just the nature of the child-parent relationship, we feel. The latest in the "you spent what on my what" saga comes from West Sussex, England. According to The Metro, Mohamed Shugaa recently found that his seven-year-old son...
