This week, Walter S. Mossberg answers readers' questions on Apple's new iPad

Q: I have noticed that, on my new iPad, parts of the back get warm or even hot from time to time, something I didn't experience on the iPad 2. Is this just me?

A: No, I've had a number of others tell me the same thing, including some who described their iPads as getting "hot." While I didn't notice this on the iPad I tested for my review, I have noticed some mild warming once or twice, briefly, on the new iPad I bought for myself. The company says that, because of the larger battery and the greater power being consumed, it wouldn't be unusual for parts of the back of the device to feel warm from time to time. If it gets uncomfortably hot, I would advise you to take it back to the store. Apple says it shouldn't get so hot as to be uncomfortable to use.

Consumer Reports said Tuesday that it had run lab tests showing the new model runs up to 13 degrees hotter than the iPad 2 when playing an action game uninterrupted for 45 minutes. But the magazine said: "When it was at its hottest, it felt very warm but not especially uncomfortable if held for a brief period."

Q: I have read that, because of the higher resolution on the new iPad, apps and content will take up more space. Does that mean I either have to keep less content on the device, or buy a model with more capacity?

A: According to Apple, it all depends on the app and the nature of the content. The company says apps that are very graphics or photo intensive may swell in size if they want to take full advantage of the new, sharper screen. Others, which mainly rely on text, can either stay the same size or grow only slightly.

As for content, the biggest issue will likely be photos and videos taken on the iPad itself, which create dramatically larger files. I suspect relatively few people will use a large tablet frequently as a camera. And because of the screen, some people may be tempted to download more high-definition videos, which take up more room. Whether you need a model with greater capacity depends on what kinds of apps and content, and how much, you plan to store on it.

Q: I bought the new iPad and agree with you that text is incredibly sharp, but I've run into some apps—including The Wall Street Journal's—that looked fine on the older model, but fuzzier on the newer one. Are developers upgrading their apps?

A: Apple says that most text, even on older apps, still looks sharp, because they use the iPad's built-in fonts, which have been adjusted to match the new screen. And that has been my experience. However, on some apps, text looks more pixilated on the new high-resolution screen, because they use custom fonts. Developers are starting to release updates to fix this issue, as well as to sharpen their graphics. As for the Journal app, the publisher says a version that is retuned for the new display is in the works and is planned for release around April 1.

Apple's new iPad getting taken apart.
(Credit: iFixit)

Flying to Australia to be the first to buy one of Apple's new iPads sounds a bit crazy to start with. So how much crazier is it to do that... and then tear the thing apart?

The folks at iFixit have done just that, putting their newly acquired "new iPad" through a full tear-down. While a complete version of that report has yet to come, the service is doing a "live tear down" akin to a live blog you'd get at a news event, uncovering parts of the unit as it's taken apart piece by piece.

One of the first findings is that the model numbers on the back of the display are similar to ones used by Samsung. Samsung was reported to be the sole supplier of the Retina Display panels for the new device; however, other manufacturers have apparently disputed that, albeit anonymously. Clearly finding something distinctively non-Samsung would be more compelling, but the iFixit teardown bolsters the initial claim.

In the past, these reports have provided a detailed look at Apple's construction techniques and the parts it uses. While Apple now publishes a list of its suppliers (PDF) as part of its annual supplier responsibility report, teardowns had previously been one of the only ways to figure out where the company was sourcing some of its components.

Some other tidbits so far include that the connector that hooks up the display to the logic board is different from the one on the first two iPad models, thus confirming that the leaked Retina Display panel that cropped up in mid-February was legit.

The 4G LTE chip comes from Qualcomm, while the 802.11 a/b/g/n chip with Bluetooth comes from Broadcom. Separately, the A5X chip was made by Samsung, which iFixit notes was manufactured in the first week of January this year.

We'll keep updating this post with more findings as they emerge.

Google is popular, but Privacy is concerned: Pew

According towards the Pew survey, only 38 percent of on line adults realize that there are methods to restrict the quantity of private information collected by websites, using the abolition within the web of history, using the the privacy setting parameters within the website and also the browser modifications as the most famous methods.

Google remains the lookup motor by far the most famous inside U.S., however it seems that there is increasing concern about privacy and also the quantity of private information from Google as nicely as other lookup engines are picking up users, according to a latest questionnaire through the Pew web & American lifestyle Project.

The Pew survey, announced on March 9, discovered that 83 percent of respondents say they make use of Google, another reminder of society's domination more than other alternatives regarded as Yahoo, ms and Mozilla Firefox Bing. there was so overwhelming fulfillment in the expertise of consumers of lookup engines, possibly Google or elsewhere.

However, the questionnaire performed in February, so a increasing unease, with hints quantity of private information about these engines would be the selection of users, possibly to customize lookup outcomes or long term provide additional targeted advertising.

About 73 percent of web consumers Thurs not want lookup engines to track their investigation and use this information to customize long term results, due to the fact they see an invasion of privacy, even though 65 percent feared it could restrict the information which they would inside long term outcomes of investigation and information that could possibly be online.

68 percent of consumers do not want due to the fact they are uncomfortable using the conduct of specific marketing on line is tracked and analyzed, the examine said. Twenty-eight percent mentioned they like specific advertising, due to the fact it provides them information about solutions and matters that most curiosity them

The questionnaire shows that web consumers are becoming additional dependent and pleased using the lookup engines to find information, but at a similar time, most have a increasing discomfort using the quantity of information from these engines will be the selection research, as Kristen Purcell, the Pew web statement within the Deputy Director of investigation and author. Eighty-one percent of lookup motor consumers mentioned they usually or most within the time to find the information they seek, even though 86 percent mentioned they learned a little something new or important.

"A obvious vast majority of researchers say they really feel they do not shed sight within the background of lookup engines lookup is an invasion of privacy, as well as care concerning the lookup outcomes are restricted to what is regarded appropriate to them. "

This arrives at a time when Google and others searching like Facebook and Microsoft, are theme to evaluation through the growing quantity of private information it collects about consumers and what they do using the data. Google, in particular, reside inside center of attention, which made modifications towards the privacy policies of this month. Google announced in April changes, which essentially permits info on the on line conduct of the user in any within the Google lookup services along the lines of search, YouTube, Gmail and Google + - coming jointly once again to produce a profile additional total user, advertisers can then be utilized for solutions of specific destination. Critics argue that that is another way for Google to enhance on line marketing by making a additional total profile of the users.

European Union officials have questioned no subject whether the plan modifications violate the laws within the United States, and also the electronic digital Privacy information Center, final thirty day period sued the Federal buy and sell Commission expects the fact that regulatory impact of excess fat to cease Google modifications to come.

"Many people today are worried about ads and particular research, but most consumers do not really feel they are able to carry actions to restrict the quantity of private information is collected and utilized by lookup engines and websites," mentioned Joanna Brenner , Pew web and web Coordinator co-author, in the study.

Former NSA Head: Hitting Iran with Stuxnet Was a 'Good Idea'

The former top-ranking military intelligence officer in the U.S. armed forces discusses Stuxnet on this week's episode of "60 Minutes," and he may give some ammunition to cybersecurity watchers who believe the United States had something to do with the sophisticated computer worm that wreaked havoc on Iran's nuclear program in 2010.

Retired Gen. Mike Hayden called the sabotaging of Iran's nuclear program with Stuxnet a "good idea" during an interview with Steve Kroft to be aired this Sunday, according to an episode teaser sent out by "60 Minutes" on Friday (see preview clip below).

Hayden, a former director of both the National Security Agency (1999-2005) and the Central Intelligence Agency (2005-06), told the CBS news show that he doesn't know who was behind Stuxnet, but in the 18 months since the cyberattack that destroyed more than 1,000 Iranian centrifuges occurred, there has been much speculation that either the U.S., Israel, or both countries may have developed and deployed the worm.

"This was a good idea, alright? But I also admit this was a big idea, too," Hayden told Kroft. "The rest of the world is looking at this and saying 'Clearly, someone has legitimated this kind of activity as acceptable.'"

Stuxnet, unlike the computer viruses that attack PCs and other consumer devices, targets critical infrastructure systems—specifically industrial control systems like the SCADA systems used to control centrifuges used at Iran's nuclear reactor.

Hayden told "60 Minutes" that Stuxnet, or something like it, could one day be used against the U.S. "So there are those out there who can take a look at this ... and maybe even attempt to turn it to their own purposes," he said.

Built by a Tiny Team?

Nobody has proven who was behind Stuxnet, but last December a pair of security researchers said they believed it and the related Duqu computer worm were based on a common software platform built by a dedicated team of malware developers around the end of 2007.

"We believe Duqu and Stuxnet were simultaneous projects supported by the same team of developers," Kaspersky Lab researchers Alexander Gostev and Igor Soumenkov wrote in their December report.

Stuxnet spreads through Microsoft Windows but specifically targets Siemens supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. Duqu, discovered in September, is thought by many security researchers to be virtually identical in origin and makeup to Stuxnet, though it appears to have been tweaked to steal information from industrial control systems rather than damage them like its cousin.

"In terms of architecture, the platform used to create Duqu and Stuxnet is the same," Gostev and Soumenkov write. "This is a driver file which loads a main module designed as an encrypted library. At the same time, there is a separate configuration file for the whole malicious complex and an encrypted block in the system registry that defines the location of the module being loaded and name of the process for injection."

Gostev and Soumenkov have dubbed the code kernel they believe is underneath both computer worms the "Tilded" platform, in reference to its authors habit of using file names starting with "~d". In its first iteration, the Tilded platform was used to create at least one spyware module in 2007 or 2008, and "several other programs whose functionality was unclear" between 2008 and 2010, they said.

The researchers believe the platform underwent "its most significant change" in the summer or fall of 2010. That produced Stuxnet, which now has four driver file variants that have been identified, and Duqu.

They also think the Stuxnet/Duqu story has yet to be fully told. Kaspersky Lab last year came across previously unknown driver files they think may have been part of early Tilded platform-based spyware modules that didn't appear to be associated with Stuxnet but which may have been predecessors to Duqu.

Gostev and Soumenkov think that what they are probably seeing is various stages of the "evolution" of the driver files used to "load and execute a main module" like Duqu or Stuxnet. The authors of those driver files wouldn't write new ones from scratch, the researchers said, but instead would "tweak ready-made files."

Commonalities between versions of the driver files for Tilded platform-based worms suggest not just a common ancestry for Stuxnet and Duqu, but common authorship of the programs by a team working together, according to the Kaspersky Lab researchers.

Apple's iPad 3 Rumored To Cost Same As iPad 2, Similar Configuration

In a source-fuelled report recently published by 9to5Mac, it is claimed that Apple’s upcoming iPad 3 will cost the same as its predecessor, and that it’ll be available in the similar 16, 32 and 64 gigabyte configuration we’re already familiar with.

Less than one week ago, an unverified price comparison sheet from China suggested that Apple’s iPad 3 would cost slightly more than the iPad 2, and that the basic, 16 gigabyte Wi-Fi only model would set customers back $579. At the time, we speculated that the iPad’s Retina display – a feature many are certain the iPad 3 will include – was the reason for the price hike; the super high resolution displays are expensive to manufacture, though a price change such as this would have been an un-Apple-like move to make.

However, 9to5Mac’s source – “Mr. X” – disputes this claim, instead suggesting that Apple plans to maintain the same price structure and even the same 16, 32 and 64 gigabyte configuration. The website has also posted the model numbers for all versions of the upcoming iPad 3:

MC705LL/A – J1 GOOD A-USA
MC706LL/A – J1 BETTER A-USA
MC707LL/A – J1 BEST A-USA

MD328LL/A – J1 GOOD B- USA
MD329LL/A – J1 BETTER B-USA
MD330LL/A – J1 BEST-B-USA

MD366LL/A – J2A GOOD A-USA
MD367LL/A – J2A BETTER A-USA
MD368LL/A – J2A BEST A-USA

MD369LL/A – J2A GOOD B-USA
MD370LL/A – J2A BETTER B-USA
MD371LL/A – J2A BEST B-USA

As mentioned, in the past Apple has avoided increasing the price of its iOS devices, instead downgrading the price of the earlier models and maintaining the price of its higher-end, newer models. If you ask us, Mr. X is spot-on with his claims here – we think it’s very unlikely Apple will alter its iPad pricing with the iPad 3, though as usual, we’ll know nothing for certain until the company makes an official announcement.

Apple is set to unveil the iPad 3 next Wednesday, at its March 7 special media event. As always, AppAdvice will be covering the event throughout – so be sure to check back with us!

OS X Lion, It is What Makes a Mac a Mac

If you are a mac user, I bet you must have heard that Apple has released Mac OS X Lion on its Mac App Store and, as promised, the new operating system is selling for $31.99.

Mac OS X Lion (version 10.7) is the eighth major release of Mac OS X, Apple's desktop and server operating system for Macintosh computers. Lion was released on July 20, 2011, as announced during Apple's third quarter 2011 earnings report. Apple's homepage and Mac OS X webpages refer to it as OS X Lion, without the "Mac", although Apple's press release for Lion's July release mainly uses "Mac OS X Lion" rather than "OS X Lion". Built on a rock-solid UNIX foundation, OS X is engineered to take full advantage of the technologies in every new Mac. And to deliver the most intuitive and integrated computer experience.

There's no going into an Apple store and buying a copy of this new OS for Intel-based Apple laptops and desktops on a DVD. Of course, If you really wan to have a dvd ripper for mac, you can use a dvd ripper mac tool to help you. Mac OS X Lion - which touts more than 250 new features - is only available as a 3.49-gigabyte digital download. Apple store employees will, however, help with downloading Lion for those who stroll in.

Among the new features Lion is adding over its predecessor, OS X Snow Leopard, are new multi-touch trackpad features, including scrolling speed that varies depending on how fast you flick your fingers, pinching your fingers to zoom in on a web page or image (as you'd do on an touch screen smartphone or tablet) and new security features such as stepped-up hard drive encryption.


Lion is also ushering in a few new app-related features, too, such as automatic file saving when a user closes a program, full-screen views, and iPad-like Launchpad feature to organise and view apps as an array of icons across a screen.

The new version of OS X is a bit of a test for digital distribution methods at Apple, which is also prepping for the fall release of the Cupertino, California, company's iCloud services.

A preview of Lion was publicly unveiled at Apple's "Back to the Mac" event on October 20, 2010. It will bring many developments made in Apple's iOS, such as an easily-navigable display of installed applications, to the Mac, and will include support for the Mac App Store, as introduced in Mac OS X Snow Leopard version 10.6.6. On February 24, 2011, the first developer's preview of Lion (11A390) was released to subscribers of Apple's developers program. Other developer previews were subsequently released, with Lion Preview 4 (11A480b) being released at WWDC 2011.Lion achieved Golden Master status on July 1, 2011.

Apple [AAPL] will ship OS X Lion exclusively via the Mac App Store next month. The company has posted an extensive list of 250 new features and improvements within the OS. We've found some more information, including clarification that previous concerns are answered by news it will be possible to download OS X Lion from the Mac App Store just once in order to upgrade large numbers of Macs.

Since the software on every Mac is created by the same company that makes the Mac, you get a fully integrated system in which everything works together perfectly. OS X works with the processor in your Mac to deliver the best possible performance. The Multi-Touch trackpad on every Mac notebook gives you more than enough space to pinch, swipe, and tap your way around most of the apps on your system. OS X gives you long battery life by dimming the screen in low-light conditions and even regulating processor activity between keystrokes.

Difference between D5 &D9

Question has been asked about what is the difference between DVD-5 and DVD-9, DVD+R and DVD RW, etc. Generally speaking, there are 4 different DVD Disc in market now. The most commonly used Disc to save video movies is D9 and D5. And the size of them can be kind of confusing for users.

First, DVD5 is cheaper than DVD9. If you want to make more copies of your favorite DVD movies, you'd better choose DVD5 disc to backup, it will save a lot of money.

Second, also another important thing: D5 is reusable and environmentally friendly disc.

You can see the disc you bought, which always display DVD-RW, DVD-R, etc. on their covers. A DVD-R is a write-once format, once you've burned the data onto that DVD platter, the disk is forever frozen with that information. Add the "W" to that, and you'll find that DVD-RW can be erased or rewritten up to a thousand times. In a similar way, the DVD+RW is defined as "DVD ReWritable" and DVD+R is defined as "DVD Recordable".

The DVD-RW and DVD+RW we always see at the market are DVD5 disc, it means that if you want to rewrite your DVD disc, you should choose DVD5 disc to backup your DVD Movies and data, you can reuse your DVD5 disc to backup different movies or data, such as write, erase, write, erase, again and again.

Difference D5 and D9: DVD-5 (Single Side Single Layer)

D5 holds around 4 700 000 000 bytes and that is 4.37 computer GB where 1 kbyte is 1024 bytes* . DVD+R/DVD+RW and DVD-R/DVD-RW support this format. This is the most common DVD Media, often called 4.7 GB Media. A DVD-5 disc will hold nominally 133 minutes of high quality MPEG-2 encoded video, together with three surround-sound audio channels and four subtitle channels. (Without video compression one DVD-5 disc would hold only about 3 minutes of video).

Difference D5 and D9: DVD-10 (Dual Side Single Layer)

D10 holds around 9 400 000 000 bytes and that is 8.75 computer GB. DVD+R/DVD+RW and DVD-R/DVD-RW support this format. A DVD-10 disc will hold a nominal 133 minutes on each side (ie 266 minutes in all), but the disc needs to be turned over to play the other side.

Difference D5 and D9: DVD-9, (Single Side Dual Layer)

D9 holds around 8 540 000 000 bytes and that is 7.95 computer GB. DVD+R support this format. This media is called DVD+R9, DVD+R DL or 8.5 GB Media. A DVD-9 (dual layer) disc and hold 240 minutes of continuous video.

Difference D5 and D9: DVD-18, ( Dula side Dual Layer )

D18 holds around 17 080 000 000 bytes and that is 15.9 computer GB. DVD+R supports this format. DVD -18 can hold 240 minutes on each side and the disc needs to be turned over to play the other side.

DVD+R/DVD+RW/DVD+R DL and DVD-R/DVD-RW exact sizes
DVD-R/DVD-RW = 4 706 074 624 bytes ( 4488 MB )
DVD+R/DVD+RW = 4 700 372 992 bytes ( 4482 MB )
DVD+R DL = 8 547 993 600 bytes ( 8152 MB )

Twitter updates iPhone and Android apps, releases Kindle Fire app

With one fell swoop, Twitter has confronted privacy concerns, returned missed features to its mobile audience, and opened its information network up to even more tablet-toting folks.

Twitter for iPhone and Android received updates Tuesday. The fixes address previously identified shortcomings, and optimize Twitter to run on Android tablets.

Twitter has released a version of its application for the Kindle Fire on the Amazon Appstore today. The company also promised that the Barnes & Noble Nook Store will get a Twitter app on Thursday.

Both iPhone and Android applications now alert the mobile Twitterer before accessing her address book to find friends. Should the Twitter user navigate to the “Find Friends” feature in the Discover portion of the app, she will find a message that reads, “We will securely upload your contacts to help you find friends and suggest users to follow on Twitter.” The user must then click “OK” before proceeding.

The addition of the alert comes just a week after VentureBeat uncovered evidence showing that a slew of iPhone applications, Twitter included, access the user’s mobile address book without first requesting permission.

Twitter’s mobile apps also now include a much-loved shortcut feature of yore that allows a person to swipe a tweet to interact with it. The swiping action brings up a shortcut screen that includes reply, retweet, favorite, share, and user profile-viewing options. The feature should (again) appeal to the power Twitterer.

The iPhone application user may appreciate the returned abilities to copy and paste the text of tweets and mark all direct messages as read.

Apple Confirms Plans for Oregon Data Center

Some of the servers inside Apple's data center in North Carolina. The company has bought land for another data center in Oregon.

Some of the servers inside Apple's data center in North Carolina. The company has bought land for another data center in Oregon.

Apple has bought 160 acres of land in Prineville, Oregon, and plans to build a major data center in the rural town, which is already home to a huge Facebook data center campus.

A deed filed last week shows that Apple has purchased the land from Crook County for $5.6 million, according to the Central Oregonian. Apple spokesperson Kristin Huguet confirmed to local media that the company purchased the land for a data center, but offered no additional details other than to say it would be a “green” facility.

Apple currently operates a large data center in Maiden, North Carolina. The 500,000 square foot iDataCenter is providing suport for Apple’s new iCloud service, which stores and synchronizes music, photos and data across multiple devices.

We’ve previously noted that Apple would need at least one other large data center complex to provide backup capabilities for the facility in North Carolina. Most major Internet companies have major hubs on both coasts, which helps with content delivery and also provides the ability to keep copies of critical data “out of region” so that a single natural disaster wouldn’t threaten the survival of the data.

Apple’s interest in Prineville became public in December, when Oregon media identified Apple as the mystery company using the codename “Maverick” to scout Prineville as a location for a major data center.

Facebook’s facility had attracted interest from other companies seeking to leverage the town’s ideal environment for using fresh air to cool servers. “It’s an ideal location for evaporative cooling,” said Jay Park, Facebook’s Director of Datacenter Engineering. The temperature in Prineville has not exceeded 105 degrees in the last 50 years, he noted.

The central Oregon climate allows data centers to take advantage of “free cooling,” the practice of using cool outside temperatures to support the cooling systems. This approach allows data centers to use outside air to either cool water or provide direct air cooling for servers. Either approach allows companies to reduce their use of refrigeration systems, which use a large amount of energy.

The deed was signed by county commissioners on Feb. 15, the same day that the Oregon Senate passed legislation clarifying tax issues that had been raised by Facebook.
Data Center ‘Clustering’

Oregon is benefitting from an effect known as example of data center clustering, in which a regional market becomes an aggregation point for many mission-critical facilities. This trend has usually been focused on major Internet markets (northern Virginia, Silicon Valley) but is now providing opportunities for rural markets like Quincy, Washington and western North Carolina amid shifting criteria for data center site location.

Facebook has invested $210 million to build the first phase of its new data center in Prineville, with about $75.7 million of that capital spending going to Oregon companies and workers.

Facebook employs 55 company or contract employees in Prineville, with a total annual payroll of almost $3.3 million. The average annual salary of Facebook’s data center employees is $47,200, compared to a regional average of about $35,071 in 2010.

Have you been hoping that rumor about Apple testing Siri on older devices meant the sassy personal assistant would be coming to your iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4? Alas, the rumor is looking properly debunked after a report from developer Michael Steeber this week. In it, he shared a purported e-mail reply from Apple after having requested the feature. "Siri only works on iPhone 4S and we currently have no plans to support older devices," the company replied.

II. Recall of overheat iPod nano

Apple has begun a new replacement program for some of its first-generation iPod Nano units, which, the company says, contain batteries that can overheat.

In an e-mail sent yesterday to owners of first-generation Nanos, Apple said the batteries in Nanos sold between September 2005 and December 2006 could "overheat and pose a safety risk."

In its note, Apple said the issue can be tracked back to a particular battery supplier, and that the potential for such overheating behavior "increases as the battery ages."

The new program offers a free replacement unit to customers whose device carries a serial number that indicates the gadget contains one of the suspect batteries. Apple is promising that a replacement unit, which is another first-generation iPod Nano, will be delivered about six weeks after customers send in an affected device.
