Watch here

A funny, fascinating, illustrated talk about Apple’s history, about the book, some behind-the-scenes stories from Apple’s history, and questions.

This book lavishly illustrates the first 50 years of Apple’s history through stunning, full-color photographs.
Instant New York Times Bestseller

In time for Apple’s 50th anniversary, CBS Sunday Morning correspondent David Pogue tells the iconic company’s entire life story: how it was born, nearly died, was born again under Steve Jobs, and became, under CEO Tim Cook, the most valuable company in the world. The book features new facts that correct the record, illuminate its subversive culture, and fresh interviews with the legendary figures who shaped Apple into what it is today.

Meeting length: 1 hr 18 min

Take Control of Photos

takecontrolbooks.com/photos

This book introduces you to the many features of Apple’s Photos app on Mac, iPad, and iPhone, with advice on navigating the interface, editing your images, searching your library, syncing with iCloud Photos, sharing photos with others, and creating photo books.

Get to know Apple’s Photos app and how best to use it to import, manage, edit, sync, and share your photos in macOS 15 Sequoia and iOS 18/iPadOS 18! As the successor to Apple’s iPhoto and Aperture apps, Photos has a more refined interface and deeper connections to iCloud, and it runs faster. Following the expert advice of Jason Snell, publisher of Six Colors and former lead editor at Macworld, you’ll learn how to navigate Photos like a pro!

In this book, you’ll learn how to:

• Import photos from cameras, mobile devices, or memory cards
• Navigate the Photos interface, including the greatly revised single-pane view on iPhones and iPads
• Use Apple Intelligence (on supported devices) to remove unwanted elements from your photos or create movies from your photos based on a text prompt
• View, edit, or disable Live Photos
• Organize your library by using enhanced search features, adding metadata, building albums, and creating smart albums
• Locate and remove duplicate photos
• Search for text, faces, and other objects in photos
• Edit your photos using quick fixes like cropping, applying filters, and fixing red-eye and rotation problems
• Use advanced editing techniques within Photos and edit using external apps like Photoshop
• Manage your photo collection using the Memories and Collections features, and get summary views
• Sync and share individual photos and videos with iCloud
• Use iCloud Shared Photos to share a separate library with up to five other people
• Work with multiple Photos libraries
• Show off your photos on an iPhone or iPad, including customizing your lock screen
• Use the Camera app in iPhone and iPad to capture photos and videos
• View your photos on an Apple TV, and use them for wallpaper and widgets on your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch
• Share your photos via social media, export them from Photos, or turn them into slideshows
• Create printed objects (such as books and calendars) from your photos using third-party services
