So has the 10.3 Update calmed your fears on the Future of FCPX?

November 7, 2016 at 9:01 pmThe POINT of Apple is that when things are “in house” they get to cross-pollinate.
As I noted in another thread. Squish down an iPhone into a long thin form-factor and install that along with a subset of it’s code into your keyboard and what do you get?
The TouchBar.
Seems suddenly kinda useful to have FCP X be a healthy subset of Apple as a whole.

Well, I’ve been told numerous times by folks at ProApps that they don’t get a “heads up” on upcoming hardware. At least not until the last minute. Apple is structured in very tight silos. Obviously this time might be different, but it’s not a given. Otherwise you’d be able to plug your iPhone directly into a new MBP and charge it. ?

You can’t be arguing that won’t happen, can you?
And anyway…
On top power only. Below, Power PLUS very high capacity bi-directional data – making every port a power tap and a connectivity port simultaneously.
This is kinda what manufacturing advancement looks like, isn’t it?.
Just sayin’

Except for that MagSafe issue ?

I’m not sure a problem that can be solved cheaply is really that big a problem.

“I dunno. Add that to the other pile of dongles for the MBP and I think the tally is up to around $250. ?
Speaking of dongles… “Apple’s New USB-C AV Multiport Adapter/Dongle Doesn’t Work”

Well, that must have changed, or it’s been a while since you’ve checked in with your sources.
Apple just demoed 3 professional applications all tied to a Touch Bar with on stage demos.
Apple released ProApps software as soon as the last foot left the stage that supported the Touch Bar, and tied the release directly to a MacBook Pro. I don’t know if there could have been any more heads up.

Nope.

It’s a lot different under the hood. The fact that it doesn’t appear to be is, in my opinion, why this took so long. I don’t think they’re done, but just guessing…
