Update: Sadly, this solution is not consistent. It works more often than otherwise, but we still need an OS based solution. I have found a 99¢ app called “Clean Text” that does the work and more, so… we still need an OS based solution, but in the meantime I recommend […]

Here is a tip I could not find it anywhere on the interwebs. My Apple Pencil (which I use extensively to highlight PDFs while reading in Endnote and other apps) stopped working. The iPad could see it, knew it was there, fully charged, but when I went to write, highlight, […]
I have not posted on tech in quite a while, but after finally getting some things sorted with Apple’s iTunes I thought it might be helpful to some and worthwhile to maybe 2 people to share my experience. This is not a review of the services in any comprehensive sense, […]

Today I posted two articles on Sacred Techs about Apple’s update to their Mac operating system. In the first post I review the new features coming this summer with the release of Mountain Lion. In the second I consider whether this signals a significant shift in Apple’s approach to desktop […]
