Today's WWDC keynote presentation was chock full of new and
iOS mobile software even more updates to cover in this article. But most
"new" coming iCloud by Apple in the fall, a file sharing and
streaming service requires a wired connection.
With iCloud and wireless computing, you can use without
having to rely on a personal computer touch iOS devices iPhone, iPad, and iPod.
In other words, apps, songs download, for, documents and other media will be
able to sync your media compatibility between these devices without the use of
a USB cord.
Will be $ 99 cost per year of free iCloud which will take
place on Apple's old cloud storage service, MobileMe, if you are not (existing
MobileMe users will have to start in June automatically 2012 account , so it's
free for now.) not familiar with MobileMe, then you think of iCloud as the new
and improved Dropbox account. With iCloud, all your purchased apps, music,
camera images will be backed up on an hourly basis, which means you do not need
to worry about backing up that data. If you download an app from the App Store on
your iOS device, it always even if you lose or damage your iOS device or Mac,
you will be on Apple's server to re-download. If your Mac's internal hard drive
permantely crashes, all your applications with just a single license you can
re-download purchased in the store with your Apple ID devices. iCloud will find
entry can be synced between a free e-mail, address, and three devices in the
calendar account. I still use MobileMe for many years, and has been, I believe,
it has my email, contacts, and appointments very easy syncing.
iClouds when the new iOS 5 apps are released, four new apps
and services will make it a lot easier media management. These applications
include:
Documents in the Cloud
This app pages via iCloud, data, and created with the iOS
version of the keynotes of your lives will match all documents so that they are
available to you on all devices. Although it was not announced at the WWDC
conference, created with the iWork OS X version of the application documents
will probably be supported by iCloud.
Did you Cloud (PDFs, Word documents, etc.) will be able to
upload any document on your device is not clear about the documents in the
cloud, or it will be limited to iWork documents ?
Photo Stream
Photos are many great apps to take with the camera on your
iOS device, but with iCloud, Apple's Photo Stream app to automatically upload
your photos to the cloud and back to your other devices below are synchronized.
So, to take a picture with your phone and it will automatically appear on your
iPad. Photo Stream your free account will be 1000 photo limit, but Apple
eventually will sell additional storage space for photo hobbyists and
professionals who need that monster. Photos for 30 days in your cloud account
with you, you're like, give it enough time to download them on your computer
iPhoto library. Photo Stream means that you will not need to open another
application to begin the process of uploading.
Also, if you have an Apple TV device, you will be downloaded
to your HDTV recently photographed the device, and the like. If you for example
to a party and take pictures with your phone, they appear on your Apple TV for
everyone to see immediately.
ITunes Match
Finally, iTunes Match. Follow this app and iOS syncing is
that you have been waiting for mobile users. This will enable you to sync
between all your devices sync your iTunes music purchases. Again, you do not
need to create a wired USB connection to your iTunes to download.
In fact, it is meant to match the tunes that will enable you
also to all non-purchased iTunes songs on Apple's cloud server. The feet or
other feedback regarding your songs and other music will not need to buy from
the sites. Apple just will not synchronize your iTunes library with their huge
18 million song catalog. So everyone who owns a copy of a Lady Gaga album
whether or not purchased from iTunes, Apple's music album access server
However, though Apple will stream your music to you over the
cloud, it will only be music that you own. That means you still have to
purchase and/or rip files of music. Access a catalog of streaming music already
on a server, like Rdio.com or Pandora, is still a cheaper way to go, and it
means you don't have to download or create more and more files of music.
Also note that of the three iCloud app services, iTunes
Match comes at a price. It will cost you $24.99 to 20,000 songs. While
these subscription fees are cheaper than the cloud music services of Amazon and
Google, I would still rather pay $60 a year to Rdio.com and get unlimited
access to the site's music catalog, saving tons of money in music purchases,
with no file downloads involved. See my article, Why Rdio.com Is Better
Than the iTunes Music Store for more about this.
All in all, the upgrades and new services coming to Apple's
operating systems are pretty outstanding. Apple is definitely taking its
customer base into a wireless future.
However, the music will stream to the Apple cloud, it will
be music you own. That means that you still have to rip the purchase and / or
music files. , Already a list Rdio.com or Pandora streaming music access on a
server, is an inexpensive way to go still, and do not need to create or
download music files more means.
Remember that this is the app iCloud service, iTunes Match
comes at a price. It cost $ 24.99 to download 20,000. The membership fees are
cheaper than Amazon and Google cloud music services, I still have the $ 60
saving tons of money in purchasing music Rdio.com a year, pay with a file
download and the site's music catalog will have unlimited access involved. See
my article, Why Rdio.com is better than iTunes Music Store for more about this.
All upgrades and new services gorgeous been coming to
Apple's operating system. Apple is certainly taking its customer base as a
wireless future.
