Apple Products Iphone, Ipad & Apple Products iPhone, iPad & iOS Prepared by: Assistant Lecturer Sama Salam Samaan iPhone o The iPhone is a line of Internet and multimedia-enabled smartphones marketed by Apple. The first iPhone was unveiled by Apple's former CEO Steve Jobs on January 2007. The 5th generation iPhone, the iPhone 4S, was released on October 14, 2011. o An iPhone can function as a video camera ,a camera phone, a portable media player, and an Internet client with email and web browsing capabilities, can send texts and receive visual voicemail, and has both Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity. o The user interface is built around the device's multi-touch screen, including a virtual keyboard rather than a physical one. oThe iphone apps have diverse functions, including games, GPS navigation, social networking, security and advertising for television shows, films, and celebrities. o There are five generations of iPhone models. The original iPhone was a GSM phone that established design precedents like screen size and button placement that have persisted through all models. oThe iPhone 3G added 3G cellular network capabilities and A-GPS location. The iPhone 3GS added a faster processor, and higher resolution camera, including video recording at 480p. oThe iPhone 4 has a rear facing camera (720p video) and a front facing camera (at a lower resolution) for FaceTime video calling and for use in other apps like Skype. o In 2011 the iPhone 4 was voted the Best Mobile Phone On Earth. The iPhone 4 featured a higher-resolution 960x640 display; it was released on June 2010. o On October 2011, Apple announced the iPhone 4S. The iPhone 4S added a higher resolution camera (8 megapixel) with 1080p video recording, face detection, and video stabilization, a faster, dual core processor, world phone capability (allowing a single handset to operate on networks based on both GSM/UMTS and CDMA technologies), and a natural language voice control system called Siri. Jobs demonstrating the iPhone 4 to Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on June 2010. Internet connectivity o Internet access is available when the iPhone is connected to a local area Wi-Fi or a wide area GSM or EDGE network, both second-generation (2G) wireless data standards. oThe iPhone 3G introduced support for third-generation UMTS . o By default, the iPhone will ask to join newly discovered Wi-Fi networks and prompt for the password when required. The iPhone will automatically choose the strongest network, connecting to Wi-Fi instead of EDGE when it is available. o The iPhone 3GS has a maximum download rate of 7.2 Mbit/s. Furthermore, email attachments as well as apps and media from Apple's various stores must be smaller than 20 MB to be downloaded over a cellular network. o Larger files, often email attachments or podcasts, must be downloaded over Wi-Fi (which has no file size limits). o If Wi-Fi is unavailable, one workaround is to open the files directly in Safari. o Safari is the iPhone's native web browser, and it displays pages similar to its Mac and Windows counterparts. oThe maps application can access Google Maps in map, satellite, or hybrid form. It can also generate directions between two locations, while providing optional real-time traffic information. o iPhone users can and do access the Internet frequently, and in a variety of places. According to Google, in 2008, the iPhone generated 50 times more search requests than any other mobile handset. iOS o iOS (formerly known as iPhone OS) is Apple's mobile operating system. Originally developed for the iPhone, it has since been extended to support other Apple, Inc. devices such as the iPod touch, iPad and Apple TV. o Apple, Inc. does not license iOS for installation on third-party hardware. o Recently, Apple, Inc.'s App Store contains more than 500,000 iOS applications, which have collectively been downloaded more than 18 billion times. oThe user interface of iOS is based on the concept of direct manipulation, using multi-touch gestures. Interface control elements consist of sliders, switches, and buttons. o iOS is derived from Mac OS X, and is therefore a Unix-like operating system by nature. o In iOS, there are four abstraction layers: • Core OS layer, • Core Services layer, • Media layer, and • Cocoa Touch layer. oThe current version of the operating system (iOS 5.0) uses roughly 774.4 megabytes of the device's storage, varying for each model. included applications Primary The iOS home screen contains these default "apps". Some of these applications are hidden by default and accessed by the user through the Settings app . • Phone: Telephone, FaceTime video calling. • Mail: E-mail client. • Safari: web browser. • iPod: portable media player. Secondary • Messages: Text messaging, MMS, iMessage . • Calendar: Calendar. • Photos: Photo viewer • Camera: Camera, Camcorder • Clock: World clock, stopwatch, alarm clock and timer • YouTube: YouTube video streamer • FaceTime: Video calling • Siri: Voice control assistant • Maps: Google Maps • Notes: A simple note-taking program • App Store: To buy iOS apps & more than 500,000 app. Multitasking o Before iOS 4, multitasking was limited to a selection of the applications Apple included on the devices. Apple worried that running multiple third-party applications simultaneously would drain batteries too quickly. o Starting with iOS 4, on 3rd-generation and newer iOS devices, multitasking is supported through seven background APIs: 1. Background audio - application continues to run in the background as long as it is playing audio or video content. 2. Voice over IP - application is suspended when a phone call is not in progress. 3. Background location - application is notified of location changes. 4. Push notifications 5. Local notifications - application schedules local notifications to be delivered at a predetermined time. 6. Task completion - application ask the system for extra time to complete a given task. 7. Fast app switching - application does not execute any code and may be removed from memory at any time. iPad oThe iPad is a line of tablet computers designed, developed and marketed by Apple Inc., primarily as a platform for audio-visual media including books, movies, music, games, and web content. o Its size and weight fall between those of contemporary smartphones and laptop computers. oThe iPad runs the same operating system as the iPod Touch and iPhone —(iOS)—and can run its own applications as well as iPhone applications. oWithout modification, the iPad will only run programs approved by Apple and distributed via the Apple App Store. o Like iPhone and iPod Touch, the iPad is controlled by a multitouch display—a departure from most previous tablet computers, which used a pressure-triggered stylus—as well as a virtual onscreen keyboard in lieu of a physical keyboard. o Apple released the first iPad in April 2010, and sold 3 million of the devices in 80 days. During 2010, Apple sold 14.8 million iPads worldwide. o By the release of the iPad 2 in March 2011, more than 15 million iPads had been sold. Connectivity oThe iPad can use Wi-Fi to provide location information to applications such as Google Maps. o The 3G model supports A-GPS to allow its position to be calculated with GPS or relative to nearby cellphone towers; it also has a black strip on the back to aid 3G reception. o The 3G iPad can be used with any compatible GSM carrier, unlike the iPhone, which is usually sold 'locked' to specific carriers. A SIM lock, network lock or subsidy lock is a capability built into GSM phones by mobile phone manufacturers. Network providers use this capability to restrict the use of these phones to specific countries and network providers. Power and battery oThe iPad uses an internal rechargeable lithium-ion polymer (LiPo) battery. Apple claims that the battery for both generations of iPad can provide up to 10 hours of video, 140 hours of audio playback, or one month on standby. o Like any rechargeable battery technology, the iPad's battery loses capacity over time. Storage o The iPad was released with three capacity options for storage: 16, 32, or 64 GB of internal flash memory. All data is stored on the internal flash memory, with no option to expand storage. o Apple sells a "camera connection kit" with an SD card reader, but it can only be used to transfer photos and videos. Software o Like the iPhone, with which it shares a development environment (iPhone SDK, or software development kit),the iPad only runs its own software, software downloaded from Apple's App Store. oThe iPad runs almost all third-party iPhone applications, displaying them at iPhone size or enlarging them to fill the iPad's screen. oDevelopers may also create or modify apps to take advantage of the iPad's features. Application developers use iPhone SDK for developing applications for iPad. Usage Business o While the iPad is mostly used by consumers it also has been taken up by business users. Some companies are adopting iPads in their business offices by distributing or making available the iPads to employees. o Examples of uses in the workplace include attorneys responding to clients, medical professionals accessing health records during patient exams, and managers approving employee requests. o A survey shows that iPad usage in office workplaces is linked to the goals of increased employee productivity, reduced paperwork, and increased revenue. Education The iPad has several uses in the classroom, and has been praised as a valuable tool for homeschooling. oThe iPad has also been called a revolutionary tool to help children with autism learn how to communicate and socialize more easily. Sports In sports, new technology proposes the viewer to choose its alternative angles while watching the game.

Jobs went to Oregon’s Reed College in 1972, quit in 1974, and took a job at Atari designing video games. 1974 Wozniak invited Jobs to join the ‘Homebrew Computer Club’ in Palo Alto, a group of electronics-enthusiasts who met at Stanford 1974 they began work on what would become the Apple I, essentially a circuit board, in Jobs’ bedroom. 1976 chiefly by Wozniak’s hand, they had a small, easy-to-use computer – smaller than a portable typewriter. In technical terms, this was the first single-board, microprocessor-based microcomputer (CPU, RAM, and basic textual-video chips) shown at the Homebrew Computer Club. An Apple I computer with a custom-built wood housing with keyboard. They took their new computer to the companies they were familiar with, Hewlett-Packard and Atari, but neither saw much demand for a “personal” computer. Jobs proposed that he and Wozniak start their own company to sell the devices. They agreed to go for it and set up shop in the Jobs’ family garage.

  • When We Invented the Personal Computer... Steve Jobs, Vice
    When We Invented the Personal Computer... Steve Jobs, Vice Chairman Apple Computer, Inc. 10260 Bandley Drive Cupertino, CA 96014 (800) 539 9696 “When we invented the personal computer, we created a new kind of bicycle...a new man-machine partnership...a new generation of entrepreneurs.” Outline 1. What is a personal computer? 2. What is the difference between a personal computer and other computers? 3. How does a personal computer increase productivity on an individual level? 4. What are those 150,000 people doing with the Apples they have bought? 5. What are people going to use Apples for, ten years from now? 6. How is Apple Computer Inc, carrying on a Silicon Valley tradition? 7. Has Apple's entrepreneurial spirit permeated other aspects of the personal computer industry? 8. How is Apple going to maintain its leadership in the industry? 1. What is a personal computer? Let me answer with an analogy of the bicycle and the condor. A few years ago I read a study...I believe it was in Scientific American...about the efficiency of locomotion for various species on the earth, including man. The study determined which species was the most efficient, in terms of getting from Point A to point B with the least amount of energy exerted. The condor won. Man made a rather unimpressive showing about 1/3 the way down the list. But someone there had the insight to test man riding a bicycle. Man was twice as efficient as the condor! This illustrated man's ability as a toolmaker. When man created the bicycle, he created a tool that amplified an inherent ability.

Apple 1 manual (PDF). http://apple2history.org/ http://www.digibarn.com/ http://www.macmothership.com/ http://www.multimedialab.be http://www.mast-r.org Wozniak’s early inspirations came from his father Jerry who was a Loc- kheed engineer, and from a fictional wonder-boy: Tom Swift. His father infected him with fascination for electronics and would often check over young Woz’s creations. Tom Swift, on the other hand, was for Woz an epitome of creative freedom, scientific knowledge, and the ability to find solutions to problems. Tom Swift would also attractively illustrate the big awards that await the inventor. To this day, Wozniak returns to Tom Swift books and reads them to his own kids as a form of inspiration. John Draper explained to Wozniak the Blue Box, a device with which one could (mis)use the telephone system by emulating pulses (i.e. phone phreaking). Although Draper instructed Woz not to produce and especially not sell the gadgets on account of the possibility of being discovered, Wo- zniak built and sold Blue Boxes for $150 a piece. Wozniak met Steve Jobs while working a summer job at HP, and they began selling blue boxes to- gether. Many of the purchasers of their blue boxes were in fact discovered and sure enough John Draper was linked to their use. 1975. By 1975, Woz dropped out of the University of California, Berkeley (he would later finish his degree in 1987) and came up with a computer that eventually became successful nationwide.

INTRODUCTION The Macintosh or Mac, is a series of personal computers (PCs) designed, developed, and marketed by Apple Inc. The first Macintosh was introduced by Apple's then-chairman Steve Jobs on January 24, 1984; it was the first commercially successful personal computer to feature a mouse and a graphical user interface rather than a command-line interface. The company continued to have success through the second half of the 1980s, first primarily because of the sales of the Apple II series remained strong even after the introduction of the Macintosh, only to see it dissipate in the 1990s as the personal computer market shifted toward the "Wintel" platform: IBM PC compatible machines running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows.
