Our new podcast: Meet...
We know. Podcasts are so last year - but this one you won't want to miss. Whether it’s a rumor that won’t die, a new product announcement, or just a really good Macintosh or iPhone app find that we have to let you know about, we’ll make sure it’s covered on Appletellcast.
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.
Apple’s software is clearly not as safe as we think. When Safari was first introduced for Windows, bugs and exploits were discovered within the first few hours. It comes as no surprise that Symantec is now warning of an un-patched bag in Mac OS X’s implementation of Samba. Samba is the open-source application that permits file- and printer-sharing between Windows and other operating systems.
Despite being fixed by the Samba community, Apple has not packaged the patch to end users. Alfred Huger, vice president of engineering at Symantec said:“This is significant exposure for Mac OS X users. Samba is used in virtually every mixed environment where there are Macs and PCs, and the threat profile is much higher now that an exploit has been added to Metasploit.”
Symantec recommends users either shutdown Windows Sharing or try compiling the latest version of Samba manually until Apple fixes the problem formally.
