Mac App Store Bug Lets iWork And Aperture Trial Users Upgrade For Free

Mac App Store Bug Lets iWork And Aperture Trial Users Upgrade For FreeWhile we discourage piracy and advocate that users should pay for the software they use, it seems that there is a bug in the Apple Mac App Store that is allowing iWork trial users to upgrade to the entire suite for free. This is according to a smattering of reports where users have found that despite running the 30-day iWork trial on their Mac computers, they are now able to get a free upgrade to the entire full-version of the iWork suite at no cost!

This is thanks to a bug where the Mac App Store is unable to differentiate between a boxed copy of the iWork suite and the trial version, and is treating the trial version of iWork apps as a fully purchased copy, allowing users to install the updated (and full) version of the apps for free. Granted the apps themselves are bundled free with purchases of new Mac computers, but those running older Macs are still required to pay for them. This bug has also extended to the Aperture app. We’re sure Apple is working to get this fixed and we’re not sure if already upgraded copies will be reverted once Apple solves this, but we’ll keep our eyes and ears peeled for any updates pertaining to the matter.

    Need to See a Doctor? For $49, You Can See One Immediately – Online

    Seeing a doctor can be a pain sometimes. It’s painful and inconvenient enough to be sick as it is. What’s even worse is having to sit at a doctor’s office for hours on end and wait for the receptionist to call your name.

    Well, there’s another way to see a doctor and it’s being advertised as being the “faster” and “easier” way: you do it online.

    Behind this new service is American Well. Telemedicine isn’t actually a completely new idea, but this is just one of the applications that’s making the technology more accessible for more people.

    Potential patients can check in with a U.S. trained, Board-certified doctor through their iOS or Android devices. Each ten-minute video chat consultation will cost $49(USD). If the appointment takes longer that, then additional charges will apply.

    Dr. Teresa Myers, who practices telemedicine, explains: “I guarantee that not a single person who practices telemedicine would say this is a replacement of traditional medicine. This is an extension of traditional model care. With telemedicine, we can appropriately triage patients to higher levels of care needed to avoid preventable negative outcomes, which includes direct and indirect costs.

    Wile this technology definitely adds convenience and immediacy, it can’t be used as a substitute for in-person examinations and testing.

    BBM For iOS And Android Hits 10 Million Mark In 24 Hours

    BBM For iOS And Android Hits 10 Million Mark In 24 HoursJust yesterday BlackBerry revealed that BBM for iOS and Android had been downloaded about 5 million times in a matter of hours since it was re-released to the public. Well it looks like in 24 hours, BlackBerry has managed to double that amount as BlackBerry has recently announced that the app had managed to see 10 million downloads to date. Of course this hardly means that there are 10 million iOS and Android users out there sending each other text messages via BBM, but rather it’s merely an indication of how many times the app has been downloaded.

    As it stands there is a queue if you wish to use BBM for iOS and Android. This was put in place by BlackBerry to prevent their servers from overloading and users who wish to use the app will have to sign up and be placed in a queue, whereby BlackBerry will notify users when they are able to proceed with the registration for the app. There’s no word on how long users will have to queue for and it could be hours, days, or maybe even weeks until your turn is reached, so you should probably signup with your email address ASAP, even if you don’t plan on using the app anytime soon. Any of our readers manage to start using the app yet?
