@numericcitizen I would add the ‘iCloud’ column to the Finder window, then use that to find the items that are still showing the up-arrow indicating they have not yet uploaded. Move those items to a non-iCloud folder. Wait a minute or two (or better, reboot), then move them back to iCloud.

I’ve just published “The iPad Works” - some thoughts on recent iPad news and how I view the iPad.

Great post. I especially like this: “So I say enjoy the ride while the riding’s good”

Apple seems to have switched to calling the iPad “our most versatile device,” which I think is a better way to describe it. It still isn’t the “one device to rule them all”, and probably never will be. I think that’s fine. Apple gives us several great devices and platforms (with more to come).

This looks really cool. What a great way to utilize the strengths of the iPad.

It’s been a great year for powerful iPad apps! (Affinity apps v2, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, Logic).

@gedeonm I’ve been trying to start blogging again and remember how to put my thoughts into words. As you can see, I’m actually reading Mastodon instead 🫤.

Lordy my worlds are all spinning out and bumping into each other today.

Almost feels like an intersection of the arts and technology.

Theatre and iPads.

The one I make a living at. The other I use to do so.

1/2 I have deactivated my account on Twitter (X), which began in 2007. Under Elon Musk, Twitter has not only decided to stop blocking bigots and liars and pro-insurrectionists, it has actively welcomed them, with apparent support from Mr. Musk.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but passkeys are a *replacement* for passwords — a step up in usability and security over passwords synced in a password manager. Passkeys are not phone-based security keys, or some other easy-to-lose, device-bound credential.

@ljpuk I really hope that is improved in iOS17. I have not installed the betas, so will have to wait for release. But this issue really bothers me!

@joshginter Same here. It’s amazing how great they’ve all become. Steady improvements, with consistent focus on simple, over several years has netted really great apps.

I’m on an absolute stock app binge right now.

Calendar app is the prettiest calendar app on the App Store right now, minus its icon.

Notes is uber-powerful.

Mail has these subtly hidden powers with really simple, clean design.

Even the Weather app on the iPad has become a top notch weather app.

I’ve become easily the most boring app user on the planet.

@WarnerCrocker The continued “the iPad is not a Mac” stories kind of fall flat IMO. Sure, there is always room for improvement, but the iPad has become a very capable, yet different device. Its versatility, to me, makes it the best way to get my work done.
