In response to the devastating fires in and around Los Angeles, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced last week that Apple “will be donating to support the victims and recovery efforts on the ground.” Via social media, he thanked “the incredible firefighters, first responders, and all those assisting for your heroic efforts.” Apple has a long and well-documented commitment to philanthropic efforts.
Apple provides a handy ecosystem-wide feature that replaces a typed abbreviation—say “eml”—with text you specify, like your email address. (Seriously, copy that one so you don’t have to type your email address repeatedly.) These automatic text replacements sync via iCloud so you can use them on the Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Find them on the Mac in System Settings > Keyboard > Text Replacements and on the iPhone and iPad in Settings > General > Keyboard > Text Replacement. They’re great, but it can be mysterious when they stop working on the Mac. The culprit? A menu item being turned off. So, if text replacements aren’t working in a particular app, choose Edit > Substitutions > Text Replacement to turn them back on. #todaystip

Did you know that “Project Purple” was the secret code name for the first iPhone? Steve Jobs asked developers to work on two competing phone models. The project was kept secret, and the team worked on development in an area in Apple`s Cupertino office called the "Purple Dorm.” The two models under development were the P1, which was based on the iPod nano, and the P2, which was a multi-touch device. The P2 eventually became the iPhone.

If you are accustomed to opening the Camera app on your iPhone by tapping its Home Screen app icon or Lock Screen widget icon, you may find it challenging to remember to use the new Camera Control button on the side of an iPhone 16. That button is a big win for easy access to the camera and its settings. To help retrain your camera habits, hide the Camera app icon on a secondary Home Screen or in a folder and remove it from the Lock Screen. To conceal it from your Home Screen, touch and hold it to enter jiggle mode, then drag it to another screen or into a folder. To remove it from the Lock Screen, touch and hold the Lock Screen, tap Customize, tap the Lock Screen, and then tap the minus button on the Camera widget. Replace it with another widget you’ll find useful.
