A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Episode 142. This past week I had someone ask me about managing PDFs in iBooks and that got me thinking a bit about the app. I use iBooks and I know the basics, but I had never really taken the time to explore it in depth. I figured it was time we remedied that.

A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Episode 141. Apple’s Image Capture sits there in most people’s OS X Applications folder going unnoticed and unused. You might be surprised though, this seemingly benign little app has a number of tricks if you only dare double-click.

Maccast Members 140 – Apple’s Reorganization

A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Episode 140. At Apple’s iPad mini event it was noticed by many that Scott Forestall wasn’t on stage and many saw it as a sign he was in trouble. I largely felt it was being overplayed by the media. Boy was I wrong. This week saw a big shake-up in Apple management and that sparked a lot of chatter so I figured we’d talk too.
