Poor old Intel. Like a disgruntled ex, it first took to dissing Apple in a series of ads featuring one-time ‘I’m A Mac’ ad actor Justin Long, then took to pleading to be allowed to make Apple silicon chips instead. Only its former partner has moved on and levelled up – and how. Witness the October launch of the new 14in and 16in MacBook Pros, redesigned portable supercomputers with new Apple silicon M1 Pro and M1 Max chips inside. They look amazing. Even the entry-level 14in comes equipped with an 8-core CPU, 14-core GPU and 16GB of memory, while the top-of-the-range 16in gets a 16-core CPU, 32-core GPU and 32GB of memory. And that’s without delving into the build-to-order options. There are plenty of other welcome features too – the…

> Apple has updated its Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro apps to take full advantage of the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips inside the new MacBook Pro models. In Final Cut Pro, video editors can now play seven streams of 8K ProRes footage at full resolution and export ProRes video five times faster thanks to the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips. Apple has added an Object Tracker that follows faces and objects on-screen. And if you’ve shot Cinematic mode videos from a device in the iPhone 13 line-up, you can now edit the footage’s depth effects in Final Cut Pro. Apple’s Motion and Compressor companion apps for Final Cut Pro have also been updated, bringing faster rendering and transcoding, new filters, and extra object tracking features. As…

WE ASKED… What’s your favourite feature of the NEW MacBook Pro?: > Log on and see next issue’s big question! twitter.com/macformat facebook.com/macformat New colours for HomePod mini > Since ditching the large HomePod speaker, Apple has focused its speaker efforts solely on HomePod mini. The pint-sized device got an update at Apple’s Unleashed event, where three new colours were unveiled. As well as white and black, HomePod mini now comes in yellow, orange, and blue. Apple has introduced a new Apple Music Voice Plan designed specifically around Siri. This costs half the price of a normal Apple Music single subscription (£4.99 instead of £9.99) but can only be used with your voice. It works on any Siri-enabled Apple device, including HomePod mini, AirPods, iPhones, and Macs. Apple Music was also…

Apple’s control of the App Store has lessened, and has been reflected in updated App Store Guidelines. These now permit developers to contact users regarding payment methods outside the App Store. This means that devs could point users towards cheaper prices on their own websites where they need not pay Apple’s App Store commission. The change comes after Apple was forced to settle a court case in August 2021. The case was brought by a group of developers in 2019 who alleged that Apple’s policies prohibiting them from directing users towards cheaper prices off the App Store were a monopoly on the distribution and purchase of apps. Apple settled that case for $100 million and has now updated its guidelines. Specifically, Apple has deleted a clause from guideline 3.1.3 that…

The M1 Pro can handle two Pro Display XDRs. 7,720,704 Number of pixels on the 16-inch MacBook Pro’s Liquid Retina XDR display – that’s 3456x2234 pixels at 254 pixels per inch (ppi). 21 hours Maximum battery life of a 16in MacBook Pro when streaming video. Both the new MacBook Pros feature bigger batteries and MagSafe charging. 20 The number of 4K ProRes video streams you can have running at any one time on a 16in MacBook Pro equipped with an M1 Pro. 10,000 Number of macOS apps and plug-ins that have been optimised for Apple silicon, making the transition look unstoppable. 32 Max number…

The latest iPadOS introduces a new way to get organised on your favourite tablet, bringing iOS 14 features to the iPad for the first time. Our favourite new feature is widgets, which have made it across from the iPhone. These can sit anywhere on your Home Screen to provide instant access to whatever you like: Calendar events, the weather forecast, your Apple Music playlist, your favourite photos and so on. To add a widget, simply long-press an empty bit of the Home Screen and tap the ‘+’ icon at the top left to see the available options. As you’ll see, there are lots – including Smart Stacks, which change over the course of the day. Smart Stacks will even predict what other widgets you might like and show them at the…

If you’re anything like us, you probably have a ton of tabs open in Safari, all completely disorganised and disjointed. Every time a new project comes to mind, more tabs get opened, adding to the ever-growing mess. There is a better way. With the arrival of Safari 15 for macOS Big Sur and Monterey, you can now organise your tabs into Tab Groups – and even sync those Tab Groups across your other devices, as long as you’re logged in with the same Apple ID. You can easily create as many Tab Groups as you wish, making it easy to separate your most commonly used work and home tabs, or create Tab Groups for other projects. You can also easily edit, rename and reorder your Tab Groups as well as…

As your Mac’s internal storage starts to fill up, it can become quite the job identifying what’s taking up the most space – and, crucially, where it resides on its hard drive or SSD. The solution lies with a tool that helps you visualise your Mac’s storage drive in such a way as to help you identify where those large files are. That tool is DaisyDisk (£8.99, free trial available). As the step-by-step guide reveals, DaisyDisk’s sole purpose is to help you drill down through your drive to identify large files you can look to move elsewhere, better still, delete to free up space. There are two versions of DaisyDisk available – the App Store version is £1 cheaper than the standalone version, but has fewer features. However, once you’ve…

What happens with writeable files? Q I’ve read that macOS Monterey’s system is kept in a snapshot which can’t be changed. So how does it keep writable files like caches, and how is it updated? by ALEX BARNES A Catalina divided the startup volume into two, one for the System and the other for Data. Big Sur went one step further: at startup your Mac doesn’t mount the System volume, but a snapshot there containing the System. As snapshots can’t be changed, this means that a macOS update first has to install its changed files on the System volume, then make a new snapshot to use as the system. This is more complex as, before these snapshots are made, the installer calculates a ‘hash’ for every file, and builds a…

Everything you create in Notes, whether it’s on the Mac, iPhone or iPad is by default, synced with iCloud and available on all your devices. Sharing and collaborating are at the heart of how Notes is designed to work. However, you can choose to keep some notes only on your Mac, and not sync them. We’ll show you how to do that here, as well as how to create and format notes, scan documents and collaborate on Notes with friends and colleagues. Notes also allows you to create tables, add links, make checklists and secure notes with a password. And thanks to Share Sheets, you can add content to notes from any app that supports them, either by creating a new note for the content you want to add or…

The Airpulse A100 also has a left-hand speaker containing a…

Just a decade ago, this test would have been purely about sound quality but now smart network features also play a significant role. So the balance comes down to those two factors, and price. The Sonos Beam is a solid and affordable option, cleverly using its speakers to simulate surround sound in Dolby Atmos mode, and producing an impressive movie experience as well as being capable with music playback. If a subwoofer isn’t practical due to space constraints, the Yamaha also performs admirably, though lacks some virtual surround features. Of the Denon, JBL and Roku offerings, honourable mention must go to the Roku which is a sprightly upgrade to your TV speakers for not much cash. The LG is sonically excellent, with a wireless subwoofer and rears included, and a…

One of the most important changes for the 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro laptops comes to the chips powering them. The M1 Pro and M1 Max are the fastest chips Apple has made so far – and some of the fastest chips available in any laptop. While the CPU in the M1 was an eight-core chip comprising four high-performance cores and four high-efficiency cores, the M1 Pro and M1 Max expand that configuration and push it more towards the performance end of the spectrum. Both the M1 Pro and the M1 Max come with eight high-performance cores and two high-efficiency cores – while there are only two more cores than the M1, there are double the number focused directly on performance instead of efficiency. To fit in all the new…

APP OF THE MONTH Adobe Photoshop Elements is back with its annual update. This time, there is a range of new tools and features to help you make quick edits and bring extra pop to your images. There’s a new Adobe Sensei tool that can instantly turn your pictures into works of art – with a variety of styles and inspirations, from Pop Art to Impressionism – with a single click. You can add moving overlays to your images, like adding floating snowflakes to a wintery scene, for an interesting video effect. And there are new specialised tools for pet photos and warp effects, plus a new content-aware fill for extending your photo’s background matter. Adobe Photoshop Elements 2022 launches alongside Premiere Elements 2022, which adds more framing options, shadow…

The iPad has become more T powerful over the years, and as it has, talk about iPadOS and macOS merging has intensified. The discussion reached fever pitch when Apple put its M1 chip into the iPad Pro, meaning the tablet contained the same System on a Chip that features in a variety of recent Macs. Trackpads, as well as keyboards, also work with the iPad Pro now. Surely, this all proves that the iPad, especially the Pro model, is now essentially a laptop and therefore it should have the same operating system? Not surprisingly, the reality is a little more complicated. The debate around merging operating systems tends to focus on pro products and pro users. Many of these would benefit from the increased functionality a combined OS would inevitably bring.…

With iPadOS 15, Apple has paid a lot of attention to productivity. In particular, it’s beefed up the Notes app to make it easier to record, find and share things, and there’s a new feature called Quick Note that enables you to add a note from anywhere without having to leave the app you’re in. The main Notes app’s biggest change is in its use of tags. Now you can tag a note by typing the hash (#) symbol before it and Notes will automatically add that tag to the sidebar, underneath the Folders list – so if you tag phone-related things #iPhone, you can tap on that tag to see all those posts instantly. The search works with multiple tags, so you can drill down very precisely very quickly. Notes…

Thanks to our iPhone camera app’s Smart HDR feature, we can capture great photos even in contrasting lighting conditions (such as shooting a backlit subject). However, some shots will still benefit from a few post-production tweaks in an app like Camera+ Studio to reveal more colour and detail. Although Camera+ Studio is a free app, you do need to pay to use extra tools such as the powerful Clarity Pro and Curves panels. These high-end tools help give you more control over editing your photo’s colours and tones. We’ll show you how to use Camera+ Studio’s tools to make selective tonal adjustments and reveal underexposed shadow detail (without blowing out correctly exposed highlights). We’ll also sharpen a shot to reveal more detail (and colour) before getting creative by giving a modern…

Apple has been steadily improving its built-in apps over the last few years. Having made big changes to Messages and FaceTime, Notes hasn’t been left out. While the biggest news in macOS Monterey is Quick Note, which make system-wide access to notes quick and easy, there are several other new features. These include support for tagging notes to make them easier to categorise and find; the ability to ‘@‘ other users to alert them to something that needs their attention; custom smart folders; tracked changes for individual notes; and an activity view that displays changes made to notes while you were away. All these updates come on top of improvements, such as the addition of collaborative working, that were made in previous versions. Add in the fact that you can…

While plenty of users love it, the iPad mini has arguably always been a bit of an odd-one-out in Apple’s product line-up. Originally announced on 23 October 2012, and available in November that same year, the first-generation iPad mini only had Apple’s A5 chip and 512MB of memory. Subsequently, it was deemed by some to be a bit underpowered. It also did not come with a Retina display. Many were annoyed by the use of Lightning port for charging instead of traditional 30-pin connector too. Furthermore, at £269 for a 16GB model, the iPad mini was too expensive to challenge Amazon’s range of Kindle ereaders, which had already been available since 2007 and, as CEO Jeff Bezos put it, reached the “magical two-digit price point,” by 2011. The iPad mini’s display,…

Apple has updated the MacBook Pro with its first major redesign since 2016. A 14-inch MacBook Pro has been added to the range, while the 16-inch MacBook Pro has received the same design rethink as its smaller sibling. In many ways, the overhaul is a repudiation of that 2016 model. Instead of bearing only USB-C ports, there are now MagSafe, HDMI, and SD card slots. The machine now possesses a little extra heft to accommodate more powerful components and cooling systems. And gone is the Touch Bar, the touch-sensitive control strip. It’s been replaced by a full-height row of function keys. That’s not all. The bezels around the edge of the screen have been shrunk down to miniscule proportions, except in one place: the new 1080p webcam. That means the…

Apple’s AirPods are undoubtedly popular, but their long stems have always marked them out as being different from the high-end AirPods Pro, which possess somewhat stubbier stems. Now, AirPods have been given an overhaul, bringing them much more in line with their premium cousins in terms of design. With AirPods in your ears, it is now hard to tell them apart from AirPods Pro. The alterations become more apparent at the other end of the earphones. Instead of the silicone tips of the AirPods Pro, AirPods stick with the tried-and-true plastic end. It is slightly redesigned, however, pointing downwards instead of perpendicular to the device’s stem. The lack of silicone tips means there’s no active noise cancellation, but the new AirPods include spatial audio, which places sounds all around you…

Apple has been on a Mac redesign spree lately, having reimagined both the 24-inch iMac and the MacBook Pro with new features both inside and out. Now, it appears the MacBook Air is next in line, and several leakers and analysts have provided additional details on what we could see when the device launches next year. In May 2021, leaker Jon Prosser claimed the next MacBook Air would come in a range of colours like the iMac. Now, he has shared new renders that double down on this claim. The renders also show the same white screen borders as the iMac and a similar display notch as is found on the new MacBook Pro. As well as that, reporter Mark Gurman has claimed the new MacBook Air will come with…

1 Amazon Astro > $1,449.99 (about £1,000) > amazon.co.uk > Astro is a household robot powered by Alexa – an ‘Alexa on wheels’ if you will. You can control the clever character remotely to check on a pet or do a quick patrol of your home, or it can be programmed in advance – it even has a periscope camera so that it can see higher up, so it can answer those niggling ‘did I leave the hob on?’ or ‘did I put the keys on the shelf’ questions in an instant. Astro then notifies you if it detects something unusual. It’s obviously a great asset to the elderly, as it can deliver calls, messages, timers, alarms, and reminders and manage shopping lists. It even connects with some other smart…

What’s new in FaceTime FaceTime’s new SharePlay enables you to share movies, music or your screen in a video chat with friends or family. You can all be watching or listening to the same thing at the same time, sharing the experience and adding your own commentary. Smart Volume will automatically adjust the audio levels so you can be heard during even the loudest scenes or sections, and you can connect via your iPad while watching on Apple TV or listening on your HomePod. It’s very clever and a lot of fun. There’s more. You can now invite people who aren’t Apple users to use FaceTime in a web browser; Portrait Mode gives you the same good looks you’re used to from your iPhone’s portrait shooting; and Spatial Audio and…

PART 1 OF 3 Begin by recording the basic details of people in your family tree As the old saying goes, you can choose your friends, but you’re stuck with family. Perhaps one way to make your next get-together more bearable is to remind yourself of your shared roots by researching your family tree. The best way to do this on Mac is with the brilliant MacFamilyTree (£49.99, syniumsoftware.com/macfamilytree). Over the next three issues, we’re going to run through the program’s key features, starting with the tools you need to build your own family tree. MacFamilyTree’s focus is on recording your history, if you need help researching your family’s past, visit the National Archives (nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research). Click the ‘Family history’ option and you’ll find a range of guides designed to help…

Home movies needn’t be dull collections of random, unedited clips to bore friends and family. With iMovie’s range of editing options, you can create really professional-looking films to amaze and entertain. Whether it’s a holiday movie or a video of a special occasion, you can make it well worth watching. While the iPad iMovie app lacks a few of the subtler editing options of its Mac counterpart, it still packs in some powerful features to help you edit your home movie to a very high standard. And, if needed, you can always AirDrop an iPad iMovie project to a Mac to do a little extra fine-tuning later. Although we don’t have the scope to cover it here, the latest version of iMovie on iPad even enables you to add and…

You don’t need an expensive UPS Q How can I protect my new iMac from blackouts in our mains power supply? by TERRY MITCHELL A Every desktop Mac should be provided with mains power delivered through an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). That not only filters out potentially damaging spikes but lets your Mac shut down in an orderly fashion when the power fails altogether. Laptop Macs will still benefit when connected to a filtered supply, but automatically switch to their own battery power, so don’t need backup from a UPS. To work out the required battery capacity for your Mac, look up its power consumption in Apple’s support page for that model or Mactracker (Free, from mactracker.ca). If it needs an external display or other essential peripherals, add those in…

Apple’s Notes app has had something of a chequered history. It started out as a very basic tool for taking notes on an iPhone or iPad, arriving on the Mac with Mountain Lion, but offered very little in comparison to third-party notes apps. Then it went through a skeuomorphic phase where Apple seemed more concerned with making it look like a paper notebook than making it useful. In recent versions, however, it’s really grown up and is now a serious rival to third-party tools. The ability to add images to notes, scan documents directly from the app, and collaborate on Notes with others has made it increasingly useful. And in Monterey, Apple has taken Notes even further by adding support for tags, custom smart folders, and improved collaboration features such…

ON TEST… DenonDHT-S416 JBLBar5.0 Multibeam LGSP11RA RokuStreambar SonosBeam YamahaMusicCastBAR 40 Modern TVs place great emphasis on the size and quality of their displays but their audio capabilities usually get somewhat lower billing. In part, this is a consequence of the drive for ever-thinner designs. Achieving a deep and rich sound means moving more air, and the problem is there simply isn’t space inside today’s ultra-thin TVs to incorporate speaker units large enough to do it. Soundbars have become increasingly popular as a way to achieve cinema-like sound in your own home. Their long form factor means they sit fairly unobtrusively underneath your screen, and although their speakers are not huge they can generally be paired with a subwoofer for serious bass extension, and also often with additional satellite speakers for…
