How to have iCloud sync your calendar subscriptions across Mac, iPhone, and iPad
I recently wrote a post describing how to add the schedule of the Euro 2016 to your iPhone, Mac, or iPad calendar app in order to keep up with the competition. As described in my post, subscribing to this calendar (or any other calendar) directly from your iPhone or iPad, will only add the calendar locally on the device, but it won't sync across all your other devices like an iCloud calendar would.
iDB reader Kyler emailed us earlier today asking how he can subscribe to a calendar while adding it to his iCloud account to make sure the calendar events sync to his iPhone, iPad, and Mac, without having to manually subscribe to the calendar on each device. This is what we're going to do look at in this post.

How to access your Mac remotely from your iPhone or iPad with Screens VNC
There is a ton of VNC software options out there, but Screens by Edovia has by far been my favorite for a number of years because it looks and feels like software Apple could have created themselves.

Math students: how to use your Mac as a graphing calculator
Although your Mac comes with a Calculator app, you will find that it only supports basic, scientific, and programmer modes.
Unfortunately for those who are in advanced math courses in school, be it grade school or college, or for those that just need a hand in tutoring their children, the Calculator app doesn't come with graphing functionality and it leaves you to fend for yourself.
