7:00PM On Wednesday, April 30th 2025, there will be a meeting with three videos on the Mac and iPhone

Beginners Q&A will be after the main meeting,

Note this is a new earlier start for the main meeting.

The core group decided to try this earlier time since we don’t seem to get enough questions as of late, to fill the 45 minute beginners time slot. We will try this new time slot for the main meeting.

The three videos are:  1) Image Playground, new Apple AI feature,  2) Using your iPhone on travel tips, and 3) 10 strange things your Mac may do.  These are things like you Mac running slow, weird page rendering on internet page, no sound, etc.

:  7:00 PM Beginners Q&A

7:45PM On Wednesday, March 26th 2025, there will be a meeting with Jim Pernal  on the new Apple hardware introduced in February and March 2025.

We will discuss the new iPhone 16E, new base model iPad with A16, new M3 iPad air, new M4 MacBook air, and the New Mac studio. The mac studio is available with either the M4 chip or the even more powerful and new M3 Ultra chip.

The iPhone 16E is a departure from the previous iPhone SE line.  The base new iPad is lacking a key apple selling point,  The new mac studio has a surprising top the the line processor that is not the M4.

Note the core group has decided to move the start time to 7:00 PM for the Beginners group and 7:45 for the main meeting to see if this will help attendance, and folks showing up late.
