Apple was (is) notoriously eager to introduce yet another security layer for the iCloud. Yesterday, I was forced to change my iCloud password, which resulted in some login problem with all of my emails and built in social media accounts on my Mac, even though I have entered the correct password. So with the help of my friend, I decided to log my Mac out the iCloud, and then login back again. The log out process itself was a little bit complex in its own way, but finally I’m able to log out. Then I restart my Mac. After that, I log in my Mac again to the iCloud. The system then tried to activate iCloud features one by one. At the iCloud keychain section, iCloud sent an sms to a number that’s associated with my iCloud, which was a deactivated number. Crap. Trying to change the number itself gave me error “failed to change phone number”. I then tried to find some article to change that number, which I find it here: link.

Lame Excuses

Have you ever feel that you more “alive” than before? Yeah, you pretty much alive before, but after it — whatever “it” is — came into your life, your life is “never be the same” ?

I was pretty much alike. I do my routine days, my daily job, and I somewhat do enjoy what I do. But something is still missing. Often when I say to some of my friend in Church, that they have to found out what they really want to do in their life, what’s their vision, it’s like I’m also telling myself. I feel that I’m doing fine for a living. But I didn’t feel I’m doing great. And I don’t really know why I felt like that.

But in these recent days, I somehow find that missing link, that lost connection that I’ve been felt for years — when my very generous and kind friend introduce me to iDevice programming. I was evolve so much, from the hater of a non-Windows freak, to a more open-minded person who can understand and handle differences between OS, and now I’m almost officially an Apple’s fan! And that’s before my newly renaissance about developing apps for iDevice! Continue reading

The New iPad 2: The King of The Hill?

iPad 2

Woohoo! The new iPad 2 has been launched on March 2. The launching fiesta at Yerba Buena Center for the Art, San Fransisco has become a witness for the new product, that immediately succeed the still-infant-brother iPad. Here’s what unveiled on the demo (the theme for iPad 2 improvement is mostly “2”):

  • It’s thinner (as if it’s not thin already!) by 33% that made it thinner than iPhone 4!
  • It’s also lighter by 15%.
  • It (theoretically) got twice as speed as the iPad thanks to the dual core A5 chips.
  • It got dual camera, one in back for HD video shooting and crisp photo taking, and one in front for Facetime.
  • It got two flavors of color now, one in white, and one in black.
  • It got upgraded graphics card, now 9x faster than iPad.
  • It finally got gyroscope, something that gamers and game developers will love.
  • It got smartcover (sold separately) designed for both iPad and iPad 2 that sleeps iPad when it closed, and wakes iPad when it opened. And…
  • Its pricing is just the same as iPad!
