My first impressions of macOS Sonoma

I have only just installed and started using macOS Sonoma on my Mac. I normally would have installed it as soon as it was released (on 27/9/23), but didn't want to risk upgrading while I was away overseas.

So my impressions so far are only based on a few of days of usage. But I must say that it is a case of 'so far, so good' - with no problems encountered yet.

Here are just some of my favourite features so far.

It is the time of year when Mac users will often ask me whether they should 'bite the bullet' and upgrade their Mac to the latest version of the operating system, called macOS Ventura 13. In fact macOS Ventura 13.2 is now available, after an update was released in the past week or so.

Here's a check list to help you decide if you should proceed with the upgrade.

Apple announces release date for iPadOS 16 and macOS 13 Ventura PLUS new iPads

It has been a longer wait than usual for the latest upgrade for iPad. Normally iPad upgrades are released at the same time as the iPhone, but this was not the case in September.

Instead, the release of iPadOS 16 will occur on October 25th (Aus time). Same applies for the latest Mac upgrade, macOS 13 Ventura.

Apple also announced a new set of iPads - providing a significant update to basic iPad, and also updating the iPad Pro.

Below are some articles about these upgrades and the new iPads. And we'll schedule some sessions to look at the new iPad and Mac features in the near future, so keep an eye out for news on this.

New version of iPhone Operating system (iOS 16) arrives Tuesday - but don't rush to install it

I you hadn't already noticed, Apple releases a major upgrade to the 'operating system' that runs everything on our iPhones (called iOS). Around this time of year, they also concurrently release a major upgrade to the operating systems running our iPads (iPadOS) and Macs (macOS).

They will usually also usually announce the imminent arrival of a new iPhone model at this time of year.

In line with this, on September 8th (AEDT), Apple announced that iOS 16 for iPhones will be available on September 13th (AEDT).

(It also announced the next model of iPhones, the iPhone 14 series, and new AirPods and Apple Watches. We talk about in the new product announcements in a separate article.)

Here's why you should not rush into downloading and installing iOS 16 on September 13th (or soon after).

Should you upgrade to iOS/iPadOS 15 yet?

Apple delivered an update to iOS/iPadOS 15 about a week ago - in iOS/iPadOS 15.0.1 - and this has resolved some of the early teething problems.

I must say that I have found fewer glitches since then. And reports in the press are that this is one of the more stable upgrades from Apple for a while.

So, for those of you waiting to 'jump in', is it time to upgrade?
