The Seas0nPass jailbreak tool has been updated with support for the Apple TV on iOS 4.4.2. Apple pushed out the minor 4.2.2 update for the Apple TV 2G a few days ago.
Seas0nPass supports a tethered jailbreak for iOS 4.4.2, meaning that you will have to re-jailbreak every time your Apple TV reboots. More details after the break...
As someone who has been lucky enough to spend the last few months testing iOS 5 in various beta stages, it has to be said that the version we're all currently enjoying has come a long way since the early days.
When Apple released the iOS 5 GM not that long ago, I instantly noticed that my iPhone 4's battery life was lasting roughly half of what it was before. A coincidence, I thought. It'll sort itself out, I presumed. After getting the iPhone 4S, the problem persisted. Twitter and forums on the web over lit up with similar problems, and a few fixes were suggested, mostly to no avail.
There may be light at the end of the tunnel. Switching one little toggle in iOS 5's Settings app may hold the key to curing your iPhone 4S battery...
I don't know if Steve is literally watching over all of us, but I know that he's watching over me.
The above picture was taken in my office. The portrait of Steve is actually behind me when I am sitting at my desk, making sure that I do a good job and don't talk too much smack about the company he created.
I tweeted this picture yesterday and a lot of my followers thought it was pretty cool, so I figured I'd share it with you all. Some of you may appreciate it, some of you may find it creepy. To each his own, right?
Apple has already revolutionised the way the music industry works with iTunes, and arguably changed the way mobile phone companies work forever. They set about doing the same thing with publishing when the original iPad was released in early 2010, but things haven't really taken off. One of Apple's latest additions in iOS 5 may have just changed all that, according to reports.
While magazine and newspaper publishers have put out their own apps in a bid to claw new life out of their ageing model, the take-up amongst customers has been hit and miss (with more misses than hits).
Apple's latest addition to its content arsenal is Newsstand, a "custom news stand for all your subscriptions" which, the company hopes, will provide increased exposure for magazine and newspaper subscriptions. If Condé Nast's recent figures are believed, Apple might just have cracked it...
The iPad 2 was a fairly big upgrade from its predecessor. It's twice as fast, includes a front and back camera, and is more portable than the original. For some reason, however, Apple neglected to change the tablet's screen resolution. It stayed a dismal 1024 x 768.
But according to CNET, that won't happen again. The site is reporting that Apple is ordering up the most pixel-packed display we've ever seen on a 10-inch tablet. The screens are so ridiculous in fact, that manufacturers are struggling to mass produce them...
The ongoing Apple versus Google war can be traced back to Google's entry into the smartphone market. Apple launched its iPhone in the Summer of 2007, and within two years Google answered back by releasing its mobile OS, Android.
This led to a series of events, and eventually an onslaught of litigation between the two companies over "copycatting." The jury is still out on who copied who, but Daring Fireball points to some evidence that seemingly falls in Apple's favor...
During its "Let's Talk iPhone" event earlier this month, Apple announced that its highly anticipated iTunes Match service would launch by the end of October. And seeing as how it's October 27th, we can't be too far away from a public release.
Apple is certainly moving the pieces into place. Last week we reported that an iTunes Match toggle popped up in the iOS Settings application, and last night developers received an email stating that their Match libraries would be reset today...
Today we finally got to go hands-on with a near final beta version of IntelliScreenX — the highly anticipated jailbreak app for iOS 5's Notification Center — and let's just cut to the chase, it lives up to the hype, and then some.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is how Notification Center is done. IntelliScreenX makes iOS 5's new pull down menu, a literal center of notifications.
There's Twitter, Facebook, RSS, and email, and it's done in such a way that you can communicate without ever leaving Notification Center; you can even do so from the Lock screen.
Check inside for a full video preview of IntelliScreenX, and you'll see why this upcoming app is reason enough alone to jailbreak your iPhone...
Mint.com is known as one of the best personal finance services around, with apps on a variety of platforms. Although Mint has had an iPhone app for quite some time, it just now released an official iPad version in the App Store.
Mint for iPad gives users a visually interactive view of their finances and options for managing budgets.
We've already shown you the iPhone 4S that got sent into space, and now we're back with the news that two iPads will visit the International Space Station next month.
The iPad will be the first tablet sent into space, and NASA will continue to experiment on how to use tablets on future space missions. Accompanying the iPads on their maiden voyage will be, you guessed it, an Angry Birds plush doll.
Popular gadget reseller Gazelle has reported that it has seen a record-number of Blackberry trade-ins since the iPhone 4S launch. As of last week, Gazelle has seen a 80% increase in Blackberry submissions.
RIM's e-mail and messaging services underwent serious outages recently, which could also be directly affecting the increased number of Blackberry trade-ins. Android trade-ins also jumped 72% during the past month, with the majority of sales reportedly coming from Sprint customers.
With Halloween right around the corner, you can expect a few developers to run some massive sale on their iOS games.
SEGA is currently selling 10 games at ridiculously low prices, with most of them priced at just $0.99. You can't miss it...
