Unbelievable sequence of unlucky event
Mar/09/2012 :03:56 PM To be also found in: Bugs
Since November a number of unfortunate events plagued the current application. As for the starting thing all users with the new iOS release, special programming item is no longer supported and that results in a crash. As for the things you do not see, the programming toolkit (Xcode) started crashing while opening the project what was finally solved with the help of the Apple staff by confirming my project did not crash their version. So I had my mac reformatted and reinstalled and the problem went away. All finished? Not quite: as one of tests done to solve the issue, I upgraded to Mountain Lion having been offered this possibility by Apple. So after reformatting iPhoto was apparently touched by Mountain Lion and did not work any longer: so I installed again Mountain Lion and the iPhoto problem was solved; yet one of the latest updates did not allow the current Xcode to work asking to install a new version (4.4) that, in addition to requesting a Mac Development enrollment for strange reasons, did not allow to submit updated to the iTunes Store. So I had to reformat again my Mac and have Lion reinstalled and now I hope at the end to the updates I will finally be able to tackle the Virtual Tags application and the other apps both to solve this crash and adding new exciting features!

Version 1.5 of Virtual Tags available for download
Oct/08/2011 :10:53 AM To be also found in: New Releases
The new iOS 5 ready version of Virtual Tags has been approved by Apple and is now ready for download. The new version, with the help of the iOS 5 SDK, finally provides a full landscape experience in all views of the application including the main one with the camera. Other long expected improvements are the possibility of posting and viewing messages using non-latin alphabets like the cyrillic. Moreover some minor glitches were removed.
The current version was based on a pre-release of iOS 5 and had to be posted in advance of its release as the old ones did not work on iOS 5 and will be probably followed by an updated one when the final version of iOS 5 is out.
As usual you may download it on the iTunes Store by clicking on the following button:

Virtual Tags obituary for Steve Jobs
Oct/06/2011 :10:36 AM To be also found in: Apple
I met my first Apple product while I was composing my final university dissertation in the university of Pisa in 1987 at my teacher's office. I was happy enough to find Macs even at my first business place and from one of them in 1993 I delivered one of the first italian web sites including reproductions of paintings by my father.
Also on the Mac in 1995 I started a .net web site dedicated to italian art with my gf of the time. I then took a leave from Apple for a few years until I acquired an iBook I have now presented my over 80 mum. I embraced iTunes and stopped purchasing hard supports in favor of liquid music. Nowdays I am an iOS developer with five successful application on the iTunes store.
I must admin Steve has been for me a sort of beacon for my business life, and not only that, and his passing away is now just a painful sign of how everything passes, a sentence on which Mr. Job, a buddhist practitioner himself, would have most likely agreed. I wonder where a new Baby is born, but I am sure to find him near an Apple tree, possibly of the Macintosh quality!
Also submitted to the NYTimes Reader Memories of Steve JobsNote: as a sign of remembrance, Virtual Tags and the two other charged apps from Mia Foto have had their prices lowered for this painful day.
