macOS dropping support for AirPort/Time Capsule disk Time Machine backups next year

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-09-22 04:55:13

Apple disbanded its router hardware team in 2016 and officially exited the business in 2018. Now in 2025, Apple is signaling that one of the last remaining benefits of its networking hardware will be disabled next year. Spotted by @StellaFudge on X, macOS Tahoe 26 includes a warning message when using Time Machine to back up a Mac to Apple router-connected storage. The next major version of macOS will no longer support AirPort Disk, or other Time Capsule disks, for Time Machine backups. When

Apple explains Siri delays, teases more new features are coming

9to5mac.com Ryan Christoffel 2025-09-22 05:48:43

During its WWDC keynote, Apple addressed one big elephant in the room: Siri’s delayed features that were announced last year but never shipped. And now in a new interview, Siri’s recently-appointed boss Craig Federighi has explained more of the reasoning behind the delay, and teased even more new features are coming. Craig Federighi promises Apple will ship every Siri feature previously announced ‘and more’ Craig Federighi is Apple’s software chief, and as such tends to get a lot of PR time du

The best part of Apple’s keynote yesterday, for me, was the introduction of iPadOS 26. Apple finally opened up the floodgates and gave iPad users everything they wanted. We have an actual multitasking window manager, new menu toolbars, better background tasks, and a revamped files app. All this has transformed how people will view iPads moving forward. But the fantastic thing is that this is not just reserved for the $1300+ iPad Pro; this now works on the $299 entry-level iPad. Apple just made t

Siri got lots of airtime at last year's WWDC – but not this year There’s no denying that Apple made a major mis-step when it showed off impressive new Siri features during last year’s WWDC, before doubling-down in an iPhone 16 ad. The company was forced to delete the ad and walk back the timing. That led even the most upbeat of Apple commenters to criticize the company for showing off “vaporware,” implying that the demos had been faked.
