Apple’s next generation iPhone and its so-called “iPad mini” will debut at two separate events this fall, rather than a single one as has been widely speculated, according to several sources. First comes the latest iteration of the tech giant’s hugely popular smartphone, which will be unveiled at an as yet unannounced event on September 12. Only after the next-generation iPhone is out the door and on sale will Apple announce the smaller iPad it’s been working on. That device, which is expected to have a display of less than eight inches, will be uncrated at a second special event, which sources said is currently scheduled for October. Some have already speculated that Apple would likely separate these two iOS device announcements, particularly since both are likely to be blockbuster events. Daring Fireball’s John Gruber recently posited that reports suggesting Apple would debut the new iPhone and iPad mini at a single event were off-base. His theory: The

The D-day in the patent war between Apple and Samsung has finally arrived. The trial which brought out some of the biggest secrets of both the companies comes to close today after they were not able to come to a settlement. The jury in the federal court of San Jose, California has allotted each party two hours to present closing arguments. If you have missed out of the 3 week long battle, then here are 20 things you must read. 20. Apple Files First It all started back in April 2011, when Apple sued Samsung saying that the Korean electronics maker “made a deliberate decision to copy Apple’s iPhone and iPad…The intellectual property that Apple has asserted against Samsung goes to the heart of the extraordinary success of the iPhone and the iPad.” 19. Apple’s Design, Utility Patents Apple’s claim is that Samsung infringed four industrial design patents which cover the look and feel of the devices. Also three utility patents, wh

With September 12 th , 2012 around the corner and the rumors of the ‘rumored iPad Mini’ being unveiled along with the iPhone 5 on the same day, it’s time to round up all that we know about the Mini via rumors and come up with a list of features that might feature in the tablet. So far we are familiar with the rumors of the tablet being smaller and cheaper. Here are some more features about the iPad Mini. 1. Would It Look It Like iPhone or iPod Touch! Ever since the rumors of iPad Mini came out, more rumors about its features and looks started doing the rounds. It is believed that the Mini will not look like the other iPad but instead look like either the iPod Touch or iPhone. It is being said that the new iPad will be 7.2mm thick which makes it much slimmer than the 9.4 mm thick iPad. The headphone jack might just be located near the dock which will immediately mean a thinner tablet. The volume buttons of the upcoming device are also said to be separated, rat

L ast year Apple took everyone by surprise when it christened the newest ‘i’ device iPhone 4S rather than what was expected by all - iPhone 5. While iPhone 4S was a pleasant upgrade and introduced us to some smashing featurea such as Siri, it didn’t undergo any visual changes from the iPhone 4. The iPhone 5 is special as it is said to be Steve Job’s most ambitious project . We can expect a complete overhaul of the iPhone with this new device that is all set to enter the Apple portfolio officially. While like its ancestry, the iPho ne 5 has enjoyed the limelight way before its release, the rumored release date is toggling between three months – August, September and October. We have gathered all the rumours and speculations, and put these tidbits together to bring to you what we know about the iPhone 5 so far. Display The display of the iPhone 5 appears to be the most talked-about feature. The iPhone   5 coming with a larger display is one of the

Tablets have finally made it through the struggles of childhood and are now entering their rambunctious teenage years. We’ve weeded out the “me too” products and are left with three major players in the tablet market: Apple, Google, and a resurgent Microsoft. The products from the former two are reaching a state of maturity, where they can reliably serve enterprise computing functions, while Microsoft is gearing up for a major push into the market it once owned. With the market maturing, how might tablets evolve and be serving the enterprise in the coming three years? Personalized, schizophrenic Just as mobile phones and laptops have increasingly become tools of personal expression, tablets have continued the trend. This has created a difficult task for CIOs, who are now asked to allow any and all devices into the corporate network while simultaneously maintaining security. I believe users will win out in terms of bringing their personal tablets to work, but we’ll in

Most of us are Androiders now days and every other person among us have an Android smartphone. With that smartphone of ours one of the coolest things we love to do is playing games. Most of us have mixed emotions when we finish that last stage of our beloved action games, we feel happy for the expertise we gained and the feel of victory, but the sad part is that the game is over and there are no more levels to conquer. The games listed here are from a different league, they are endless. They don’t have levels and they just get tougher and tougher until you give up and start again. One more good news is, these games are available for free in Google Play for Android device owners. 1. Temple Run Size: 22M Requires Android: 2.1 and Above This is one of the additive games you can find on Android. The whole theme of the games revolved around the story line that you have stolen the cursed idol from an ancient temple and now you have run for your l

Adobe ’s capitulation on mobile Flash , which began last year with the announcement it would be scrapping further mobile Flash Player development, got real today with the official abandonment of the player on Google’s Android mobile OS. Early this morning, Adobe dropped the Flash Player browser plugin from the Google Play store. While pre-Jelly Bean versions of Android can continue to run Flash if it’s installed, and Jelly Bean devices can install it via workaround, Adobe recommends against doing so, as it doesn’t plan to offer security updates and bug fixes for existing versions of Flash for Android after September 2013, and attempting to run the plugin on Jelly Bean may result in “unpredictable behavior.” The removal of Flash from Google Play comes as Adobe refocuses its mobile video efforts around HTML5 , something the late Apple CEO Steve Jobs suggested it do years ago. “New open standards created in the mobile era, such as HTML5 , w

    What is a DOM? When we load a page into the browser, the browser parses the HTML & creates an internal model of the document. For each element in the HTML structure, the browser creates an object of it & this tree like structure of the all the objects is called Document Object Model (DOM) How to access

Signing certificates for Android apps are a seemingly simple thing, but it can get a little more complicated when you develop apps for a client. If you’re not familiar with signing, you may want to read Google’s instructions on signing Android apps . Read on for a few things to look out for when you build apps for a client. Why signing keys are important First, the obligatory reminder: Back up your keystore–without it, you can never update an app on Google Play again. You would need to create a new app and start over. This is because once an app is released to Google Play, all future updates must be signed with the exact same signing certificate. No exceptions, no excuses. Now, backing up your keystore may be easy when you’re developing apps for yourself, but what about when you’re building apps for a client? What if you have a very large number of clients, each with a different certificate? The same rules apply

Apple’s earnings, which were recently released, had an interesting subtext beneath numbers that generally disappointed investors. As Apple’s flagship iPhone and iPad sales had another brisk quarter, Macintosh sales slowed, and desktops fell 13%. With the iPad eclipsing overall Mac sales, is the tablet finally poised to banish the desktop to the annals of technology history? The dawn of the specialized processor One of the major factors that might spell the end of the desktop as we know it has been the rise of specialized processors. In the traditional end-user computing market, upgrading processing power was largely a question of adding more transistors. Need more number crunching, video processing, or data manipulation power? Add more transistors. Computer graphics largely led the transition of specialized processors in the end-user space, with everyone from gamers to graphics professionals quickly discovering that a commodity video expansion card, optimized for mo

Let’s take our existing Clock App we created during our previous tutorials and turn it into a stopwatch. It will look similar to the standard iPhone Clock implementation. Open the ViewController.xib file and move rgw label closer to the top to make a little room for a Start/Stop button at the bottom. Now drag a new button over, change the text to “START”, and size it so it is about the width of the label. Switch to the Sizing inspector and change the Autosizing to stick to the bottom edge of the view. The button and Autosizing should look like Figure A . Figure A Bring up the assistant editor as you did in the previous article so that an action can be added when the button gets tapped. Draw a connection by holding down the control key while dragging from the button to below the label property and release. This time you need to change the connection type to Action, set the name to “onButton” and change the Type to UIButton. Make sure the popup looks like Figure B be

In this post, we will make an iPhone Clock App which displays the current time on the screen. This is a continuation from our first Hello World App. Open up the previous Hello project and I’ll show you how to get programmatic access to the label so that the text can be modified within our ViewController class. In order to do this you will need to connect the label in interface builder to a property of the ViewController class. Say goodbye Open ViewControler.xib and use the toolbar to show the assistant editor. ( Figure A ) Figure A The secondary editor is displayed next to the ViewController interface and should automatically open the header file for the ViewController class. Hold down the control key and then click and drag from the label to inside the view controller header file as shown in Figure B . Figure B Once the arrow reaches inside the interface definition you can let go to receive an Outlet connection popup. Set the name of the control to “l
