If you do remember that Apple acquired memory Lala, a music streaming service in early December last year. That was to assume that Apple had plans for the future in terms of moving iTunes to the cloud, in a service more in tune with the times.

Now seems to begin to be signs of that change. Lala.com has just placed a message on his website announcing that no longer serve immediately after the month of May, so that from June (the month in which curiously begins WWDC 2010), Lala will cease to exist. The service has stopped offering downloads and music purchases, but allows existing users to continue using the library service they already have. Service users will also receive vouchers redeemable at the iTunes Music Store by the value of purchases they have made in Lala, so you can guess that once closed its doors Lala, Apple launched a similar service of its own with the domain itunes.com if we follow the rumors that appeared in January about this service. It would be rare, because right now that direction leads to the iTunes website. For music services in the cloud are already very numerous, Spotify seems to carry the reins of the market and offers have Grooveshark reach all your music without any notice by 30 euros per year. Apple is offering it get better? Hopefully, as Jobs said the example of multitasking in the iPhone OS 4.0, are not the first to offer this but they are the best. Vía | TechCrunch

From the opening presentation in March, the cataloger (and improved) photo of Apple is capable of handling video. Latest SLR emerging market (consumer range) begin to include this feature, so it makes sense this new possibility offered by the program.

But it can occur in which the videos you import to this program, do not get to see them in iMovie for editing and this can be solved with a small step in the program. This little “bug” is often given when keep the videos on an external location, such as a USB hard disk, and these videos are only referenced internally to the program. The solution is to consolidate the originals, so it will go to the menu “File> Consolidate Masters” and the program will give us the option to copy (so that we will have the files in two places at once) or move them to the Aperture library. Once we have decided to copy or move we handle those videos from iMovie. Allowing us to mount the video that reminds us that holiday so special that should not be forgotten and teach all friends.

Apple has acquired a small company that has developed a virtual personal assistant for the iPhone with the same name, Siri. The application itself consists of a consultant to help us in finding a restaurant, entertainment event or other activity of a more interactive experience than what other service can offer.

By requests that we will Siri will be talking about offering the options as he creates more suitable. Being able to interpret what we say verbally. Of course there may be problems of understanding, but every month promise to improve the user experience. The adoption of Siri by Apple shows the evolution that could follow the internet services as well as interaction with the same. And take advantage of technology developed and the experience of this company could improve not only the use of the application as an assistant in itself, but the incorporation of the technology used in the operating system itself or the players. Already in the iPod Shuffle, iPod Touch and iPhone 3G Apple introduced we have seen voice control, allowing change songs or even ask what’s playing. The adaptation of Siri give an advantage to that functionality. Imagine asking to open mail without removing the iPhone from his pocket. In the video we see the operation of the application. Of course, everything here is perfect and we should see it in use to assess it in depth. That it undoubtedly is a great idea if you want to try is available in the U.S. App Store at the moment but soon will be appearing for other stores. Just one thing, I hope to add support for other languages not too distant future because currently only available in English. ! Thanks Otto for the track!

Panic has released its new version of Transmit, a FPT client for Mac and other protocols such as SFTP, use the Amazon S3 storage service, or WebDAV, well known by everyone. This new version, version 4, offers over 45 new features and what they have called the “one more thing.” In addition to an improvement in speed due to the almost total rewrite of the application.

But let us note the developments which have been most have not called Capture the attention. To begin improving the speed, up to 25% faster when handling small files due to the possibility of multiple connections. Furthermore, we can mount Transmit Disk feature our favorite links on the desktop like a iDisk disk in question. What, will close the window of Transmit and work with files from the Finder. And the opportunity to work with any server by using MacFuse. The redesign of the interface, which has exquisite taste, and different display modes (dual-mode column, CoverFlow, ..) and QuickLook integration is another of the great innovations that draw attention to just start the program. Another useful option is the multi-media. And is that generally the boys of Panic have again a great job making sure to leave most satisfied. Transmit 4 is available for both Mac OS X Leopard and Snow Leopard, already an application 64 bits. That yes we still pay the 34 dollars it costs the license if we are new users and if we are upgrading from the previous version will cost only $ 19 unless we buy from March 1, in which case the update will be free. The frequency that you use with this type of application you must prove necessity and those who only need at specific moments may prefer to free alternatives such as Cyberduck.

The company Intrinsity chipmakers has been bought by Apple as confirmed on Tuesday April 27. After the negotiations last month estimated that the purchase has cost 120 million dollars and that squares with the possible purchase already announced in Applesfera.

Intrinsity has worked with Samsung in the development of processors ARM and owns technologies (fastcore) that could give Apple advantage over other competitors, making processors as well as the current A4 includes in IPAD. And it seems that the Cupertino company want to distinguish yourself from other competitors. After the acquisition of PA Semi and now Intrinsity think the idea is to manufacture chips with a consumption as low as possible without sacrificing power. Regardless, the important thing of all is the importance to Apple is taking mobile technology sector.

When you download a video from the Internet, we risk if the source is not reliable, you are downloading anything but what we want. Therefore, there is an easy way to display the content before the download is complete.

For this we will be while downloading the file go to the location where you saved. We get the courses on the name of “archivo.download” and do right click. It will bring up a window where they show a range of options between it and indicating a Show Package Contents. We click on it and open a new Finder window. Now we will see two files, one Info.plist and the other video that we are downloading. If we double click or drag it to Quicktime or VLC downloaded and can see the portion verify whether or not the material sought. Vía | Mac OS X Tips

Anyone who has read my work over the years know that I am a long time Nintendo fan, but if there is any company that can attract me more than cover everything about Mario and Zelda, that is the one with Steve Jobs. So Matt Casamassina has described the view you have about Apple on his personal blog in an entry in which he announced that Apple has been hired as manager of game publishers.

In that post games organized with the help of a team that will be at your service. Until now, Matt had a job at IGN. This move represents a movement of tab more from Apple in the board game market. Following the evidence that the App Store business (along with its economic performance) is becoming a new phase leaving behind the concept of other consoles like the Nintendo DS or PSP, Apple seems determined to dominate the market with increasing more activity both from within and from outside the company, by which companies like Gameloft are specializing in games for the Apple devices. It is curious to see how after many rumors spoke of a Apple video game, the real console has ended up being the set of all devices that are capable of operating with the App Store. If Nintendo and Sony prefer to continue selling video game cartridges, I fear that Apple will only gaining more and more market share.

If Saturday does not represent for you a day off, make a break with this serving of news: Many of you have sent us a link to a page with a new type of dock for the Apple notebooks called HengeDock, ideal to turn your computer into a desktop system easily and getting a clean desk.

I do not trust the dock to keep the laptop closed ventilation issues, but certainly the idea is very good and neat freak will love. Joan Our reader sent us the link to an article of Shacknews, which tells us that the StarCraft 2 beta for Mac is coming soon: it will then launch the map editor for players who are testing the beta of Windows at this time. We will be ready to test the game if it falls into our hands. The Banc Sabadell, a bank that operates from Catalonia, has launched its own application management IPAD bank accounts, with a whole continued to function that make this entity is the first to offer something for the new tablet from Apple. From Apple’s Blog comes the news that the California hospital plans to introduce in their personal and facilities of the IPAD 100 units, so that doctors can perform queries that need more quickly and efficiently. From Javielos we get an application to help movie fans to test their knowledge, called How do you know about movies? A trivial way, we can go answering questions submitted to us by choosing one of the correct options. The application fee is, but it seems that from the blog circumvent some licenses. In Tech Blog report Canal + plans to launch an application for the iPhone that will allow us to follow the World Cup in South Africa to be held soon in real time, with live broadcasts of matches, with some incentives such as videoconferencing to connect with presenters themselves will offer the game.

IStat Menu 3 is an application that can monitor different parameters of our equipment, thus providing useful information on the use of CPU, memory, network traffic, the state of our hard drives ,… What’s New?

Well, iStat Menu 3 has undergone a major redesign. To begin now the application is not installed on preferences but is located directly in the Applications folder, with a redesign of its interface. Also has added the ability to control the fan speed (only on computers with Intel processors), possibility to show the public IP status as sun and moon each city and time, calendar and more information on the battery team. Without a doubt, despite having now come to a cost of 10 dollars is an application worth if we have more details of our team. And the possibility of creating rules for controlling the speed of the fans of our team is something that I liked enough as SMC Fun substituted Control application.

Are you a fan of Glee? “You get to scream like crazy every time someone makes an” L “with your hand?

Do you know by heart all the songs of the chapters? Do not worry you’re one of those who suffer fever Glee, among which I include myself. For all of us has left Glee official application for the iPhone, iPod touch and IPAD. The application has the same main goal of the series, that is, singing. Mixing a kind of game / karaoke songs we interpret the different chapters of Glee. The game includes three songs known by all fans: Rehab.Somebody love.You to keep me hanging on. Songs quite famous in the short history of the series. Also included are shortcuts to other songs but these are extra and are priced at 0.79 euros. Once we started playing different arrangements are included to fine-tune our voice a bit more of reality, most sing pretty bad, but the game tries to apply different filters to hide our voice. The result is really fit, never better, as it gives the feeling that we sing a lot better than they actually do. In addition to this we have a second paragraph more social. Since Glee fans begin to multiply, the application reflects this phenomenon to create a more social section. From the “listen” can listen to other people throughout the world singing our own songs and even join them and do duets. For this, the program has a colorful interface of a globe where we can see localized for each of the countries aspiring singers. We may also raise our own interpretations once we have finished singing. To do this we create our service account and assign our song. In addition to the characteristics, implementation is fraught with constant promotional images and winks to the series that any fan really appreciates. Although the first few days the price was 2.39 euros, a rather high price in these days is with a discount of 66% leaving it with an interesting price of 0.79 euros. The implementation is fun and arrangements are well managed (and are the original versions of the series, with his arrangements and vocals), his new price is quite attractive but could have offered the application free of charge and Payment songs.

With news how are you and knowing it is virtually impossible to gain an IPAD to late May, a server at least they put the teeth longer and longer. Apparently be able to connect audio interfaces with IPAD thanks to USB camera connector.

In the Apple mailing list, the engineer William Stewart makes clear that it will be possible through this connector. This means that the IPAD will be able to interact with many professional audio devices that exist in USB market, provided of course, is to make applications for it. Although obviously not be tested until Apple start serving IPAD Kit for later this month. But the engineer makes it clear that any programming needed for this is already included in the operating system. This only serves to reinforce the concept that the potential of the IPAD will be determined by what we are capable of developers and Apple is putting many facilities to make this happen. In the video that I leave after the jump shows the capabilities of IPAD in this area right now, if you begin to use this feature, these will increase exponentially. Thanks to Janale for sending the video. Vía | iLounge

Just a thing was what I needed for the firmware 4.0 was much more appealing to me. Although it seems that Apple is stepping up to the iPhone and iPod touch one of the remaining tasks of a management system is the social networking content.

Most modern operating systems are enhancing these features. Including the integration of the agenda with online services such as Facebook and Twitter. While Apple has not announced anything officially about this, as we see in capturing the new operating system version includes some extensions that just refer to services such as Facebook. Hopefully This integration not only shared the Agenda unless the system also includes a data synchronization service in real time as it operates WebOS. Vía | Genbeta

The U.S. operator Sprint has introduced two covers specially designed for the IPAD that have a peculiar feature: it includes a pocket to accommodate the Overdrive 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot, a device the Sea utility that lets you access the Internet wirelessly, regardless of where we meet at a blistering pace.

In particular the Overdrive to connect the IPAD and four other devices with Wi-Fi connectivity through 4G network Sprint at a speed of 6 Mbps, that is, about ten times faster than traditional 3G connection. And if this new network coverage is not very good at home in California, no problem, it is also compatible with 3G. The invention has a range of 3 ½ hours, and fits perfectly IPAD next to any of the two covers, Folio or Sleeve, elegant designs, which also appear to serve also for a number of electronic readers like the nook. I wonder what the cover will launch Telefónica in Spain. Thanks to Roberto Mateos for the link! Official Site | Sprint 4G Case for IPAD

One of the features that attracted me to Mac OS X when I did my change was a terrible cleaning which installed everything in it. A single application folder where to copy and which would be complemented all files pertaining to it.

And also lay in the simplicity uninstall (unless the obvious exceptions) to be all the files that are in one location. As many of you know there are applications that are installed with the operating system itself, in short, the applications own system. These applications are in the Install DVD Mac OS X and a priori is necessary to do a full installation to retrieve it. But not always going to have to go through a complete reinstallation if we lose any of these applications. Obviously the simplest solutions go to restore a recent copy of Time Machine or copying the application from another Mac that has the same Mac OS X version installed. Another possible solution lies in the Combo updates as such updates often modify these applications, but when all else fails there is another ace in the hole, Pacifist. Pacifist Shareware is a simple program that allows us to read any file or pkg mpkg to recover all that it contains. Although obviously we can use it with any of these files separately, his main interest lies in the ability to perform the installation disc of Mac OS X. When you enter one of these discs and we will identify the program read it by removing all information that contains the same programs. Once read discs Mac OS X, will give us two options for viewing, pkg contents of which will be the option that displays the raw information. And resources that will be the most “orderly” and that will show the applications themselves. To find the application you want, we can extract a specific location or install on your system. This program should be used as a last resort, since it is more than likely that the application in question is outdated. If we have recovered an application like this should prompt a system update immediately after the application to put “a day “. Vía | Mac Fixit Download | Pacifist
