In questo articolo vi segnalerò tutti i cambiamenti e le novità introdotte con il Firmware 3.0 beta 3. Man mano che troverò  nuove funzioni, aggiornerò anche l’articolo:

• Il campo “Store” nelle impostazioni è ancora vuoto. Ma abbiamo già scoperto quello che conterrà alla fine

• La tastiera nell’applicazione Messaggi adesso appare su uno sfondo Nero. In realtà penso si tratti di un Bug, o comunque un mancato caricamento dell’interfaccia. Nota: Questo problema si verifica soltanto su alcuni iPhone dopo lo Switch tra l’inserimento di numeri e quello di lettere.

• Al primo avvio l’applicazione Skype non si è avviate ed ha restituito un errore, ma avviandola nuovamente, funziona alla perfezione.

• Migliora la velocità generale
• A volte l’invio dell’SMS rimane “inchiodato”. Penso che sia dovuto allo stesso bug che causa la non corretta visualizzazione della tastiera all’interno dell’applicazione Messaggi.
• Migliora l’integrazione con le API per le Notifiche Push
• Cambiamenti nelle API per l’audio (probabilmente per l’A2DP)
• E’ finalmente migliorato il Dizionario! Scrivendo “ma” non viene pià corretto con “m’a” e neppure con “mac”
• I tempi di accensione sono rimasti gli stessi
• Safari continua a non avere la barra inferiore Semi-trasparente (contrariamente alla Beta 1)
• Sono stati ridotti i tempi di sincronizzazione: Le applicazioni e la musica vengono traferite pià velocemente
• L’applicazione Youtube adesso funziona anche su tutti quei dispositivi dove prima non funzionava.
• Il vecchio bundle per abilitare gli MMS ed il Tethering non funziona

Ringrazio anche tutti gli sviluppatori che mi stanno aiutato a trovare rapidamente tutte le novità, tra cui Cristian, Marco e Alessandro. Restate su iSpazio per altre notizie in tempo reale

Oggi vi segnaliamo una nuova iniziativa portata avanti da X-Factor con la collaborazione di iTunes Store.

Acquistando il brano You’ve got a friend di Carole King, interpretato da tutti i finalisti della trasmissione X-Factor, l’intero prezzo (o,99€) sarà devoluto alle popolazioni colpite dal terremoto.

I admit I wasn't much of a history nut when I was very young, but as I got older I found the subject more and more fascinating. Heck, I even wound up writing a book about a producer of historical epic films. I think a good perspective on history helps you understand the present, so I welcome On this Day [App Store link] for the iPhone/ iPod touch. For $0.99US it's a pretty good way to find out what happened on the current day. It includes 14,000 historical events, so instead of seeing 2 or 3 items you often get 40 or so.

There are some other similar apps for the iPhone, including World Book- The Day in History and Today's History, but neither of them have as many events, and one requires an internet connection to work.

On this Day worked with no issues, but there are a few things that would make it better. Like most people, I wanted to check my birthday and see what notable events, other than my birth, took place. But the app only displays history from the current date. That's a real downer. I talked to the developer and he says he'll change that in a future version. I also found the info button with links to support and sources a bit picky about where I tap. The developer agrees, and says he'll fix it.

On this Day adds a nice feature to the iPhone, and has some real depth. I think a really nice 'blue sky' feature would be links to Wikipedia so I could learn more about these events if the mood strikes me.

Sample screens below:

Apple has this evening released beta 3 (build 7A280f) of iPhone OS 3.0 due for release in the Summer.

Of note in the latest seed is that Apple advises developers, “Applications targeting devices prior to iPhone OS 3.0 beta cannot be tested in this seed. This bug is intended to be fixed in a future seed.”

Changes to the iPhone OS 3.0 beta 3 will not become apparent at first.

Also bundled with iPhone OS 3.0 beta was a new SDK build, seed notes accompanying the SDK can be seen below.

New in Xcode IDE 3.1 and later

• The assistant interface has been completely revamped, making it easier to create “New Project”, “New Target”, and “New File” resources. This release of Xcode also adds new assistant templates for both Mac OS X and iPhone OS applications.
• A new Overview toolbar item lets you see and set the project’s active Target, Configuration, Executable, Architecture, and SDK with a single control.
• It is now possible to set a global “override” SDK as the Active SDK, making it easy to test the build of your entire project against a different platform.
• New interface shortcuts have been added to the Build Setting inspectors making it easy to set the desired compiler, architectures, and SDKs
• You can now add Libraries and Frameworks directly into the Target window and relate them to the project’s SDK.
• The Xcode UI now allows you to designate a library or framework as weak-linked, to support building with newer SDKs while targeting older OS versions.
• New “Edit all in scope” option within the Xcode source editor makes it easy to update all instances of the selected symbol within the current scope of code.
• You can now have conditional build settings assigned for any combination of architecture and SDK.
• LLVM GCC 4.2 is a new optional compiler based on the LLVM.org open source project. LLVM GCC 4.2 provides an LLVM-based back-end optimizer using the GCC 4.2 front-end parser. This compiler is both source and binary compatible with GCC 4.2 and requires the Mac OS X 10.5 SDK or “Current OS” SDK.
• GCC 4.2 is a new optional compiler with stricter C and C++ language enforcement, security enhancements, performance optimizations, and bug fixes over GCC 4.0. Requires the Mac OS X 10.5 SDK or “Current OS” SDK

New in Interface Builder 3.1

• New drag & drop functionality allows easily re-parenting objects with the normal drag gesture
• The document outline view has been enhanced to support full drag re-ordering.
• A new string table interface allows localizers to make quick text changes across documents.
• Generates XIB files that are more diff friendly while retaining full backwards compatibility with Interface Builder 3.0.
• Now supports previewing image resource content in Carbon controls.

New in Dashcode

• You can now use Dashcode to create web aiPhone, as well as Dashboard widgets.

Iron Sight è un nuovo gioco  3d che presto verrà rilasciato su AppStore

Il gioco è una sorta di Worms rivisitato (ad esempio dobbiamo decidere anche la traiettoria dei missili), ma il tutto trasformato in prima persona/terza persona e soprattutto con un’ottima grafica.

Il gioco sarà dotato anche di multiplayer.

Apple ha rilasciato due aggiornamenti del software. Il primo si riferisce ad Aperture che giunge alla versione 2.1.3 con un update di 48,11 MB. L’update risolve alcuni bug e aumenta la stabilità.

iMovie, invece, giunge alla versione 8.0.2 con un aggiornamento di 24,1 MB. Riporta la seguente nota:
“Questo aggiornamento software risolve una questione relativa ai progetti con dimensioni pari a 0 KB. Il tentativo di apertura di tali progetti causerebbe l’uscita inaspettata da iMovie all’avvio. Questo aggiornamento risolve inoltre un problema che impediva l’accesso alla modalità a tutto schermo su alcuni sistemi“.

Come avevamo previsto, è stato rilasciato, proprio in questo momento, il nuovo Firmware 3.0 Beta 3!

Si arriva alla Build: 7A280f e tra qualche minuto (tempo di scaricarlo, installarlo etc) vi faremo sapere tutti i cambiamenti e le novità aggiunte.

Grazie Cristian P. e Daemon

E’ appena stato rilasciato un nuovo aggiornamento per Skype all’interno dell’AppStore. Si arriva alla versione 1.0.2 con diversi miglioramenti, ed un messaggio abbastanza strano che afferma il non-funzionamento sui dispostivi Jailbroken. In realtà anche questo aggiornamento funziona perfettamente quindi niente paura, e passiamo alle novità.

Ecco la lista delle novità:

• Migliora il supporto per le chiamate verso numeri senza Country Code
• Risolti i problemi con la creazione di un nuovo account
• Risolti i problemi di crash quando si toccava l’avatar di un contatto

Grazie Pirre
