OS X Mavericks and iCloud

Apple has recently released its new desktop software called OS X Mavericks. This upgrade on Mountain Lion presents several new features that make it yet better, although these new features do not really differ greatly from Mountain Lion.

First of all upgrading to this new software is free. This is something new in the California company since previous actualizations cost me. For example, the upgrade to Mountain Lion cost its users 20$. This new feature is pretty important since it will increase competence with Microsoft, who charges for software upgrades. We want every Mac user to experience the latest features, the most advanced technologies, and the strongest security,” said Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice-president of Software Engineering in a statement. “We believe the best way to do this is to begin a new era of personal computing software where OS upgrades are free.”

Other features that make one's computer perform more efficiently include that is makes your battery last longer as well as it liberates memory, around 5 gb most people are commenting.

As for other features that are completely new, this new software includes iBooks in your computer. This means that the popular application that before could only be used in iPhones, iPads or iPods is finally available for your computer. As well, other new software includes a new mapping tool and a password manager called iCloud keychain.

Lastly, software used in mobile devices has now reached the computer. For example, the introduction of Pop-ip notifications, which lets users respond to or delete messages or answer Facetime calls without leaving the app they are using. In addition, new organizational tools have been added. In this category the biggest of all these tolls can be considered the new feature called Finder Tabs, which is used to combine multiple windows into a single window with multiple tabs. Users can also "tag" files with keywords to make it quicker and easier to search for them later.

These are the most important features among the 200 new features that Apple claim Mavericks to have.

As well, Apple has released new software in terms of iCloud. There is a new website, called icloud.com that makes it possible for users to use apps such as Pages, Keynote, Numbers, Notifications or other in the computer, thus making the experience of iCloud even better. This is very useful because in this website one can also share these documents with other people, making the sharing process even faster via de Internet.
