This month's issue carries a timely article by
Rick Ortiz, Chair of the Apple
User Group Advisory Board, discussing how to help user groups understand and
discuss malware on Macs. In addition, there is a great How To by User Group
Ambassador
Rick Lantz of the Maui Apple User Society on presenting hidden
features of iOS.
Rounding out the news,
Bryan Chaffin of the Mac Observer (TMO) wrote a recent
column on Apple Keynotes, linking to the NotesKey site that offers a
searchable, sortable and fact-filled reference for every Apple Keynote from
January 1997 through the recent September 7 event.
September 17 marked the 13th annual Software Freedom Day celebration, with over
300 planned events worldwide. The day calls attention to software that is free
to distribute, modify, access, share, study and use.
Nicholas Pyers of
AppleUsers.org offers a selection of some of the best, yet totally free,
software available for the Mac, collected together on a single DVD: Spotlight
on FOSS 2016. Apple User Group Leaders and Organisers of Software Freedom Day
events can download the Golden Master (and support files including a DVD
Label, video and Promo Flyer) free of charge.
Need a presentation for your group’s next meeting? Ask your group’s ambassador
about Apple Sales Web (ASW). From prepackaged demos to Apple materials that
you can use to create customized presentations, ASW has it all.
This month, why not consider ASW's watchOS 3 - First Look (L546830A-en_US) or
iOS 10 - First Look (L546872A-en_US) for an easy meeting topic? Curions about
iPhone 7? Check out iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus - First Look (L547683A-en_US).
Ambassadors: September is a great month to check out ASW!
As always, if you have an idea for a resource, let us know.
