Mac Lion shares aim, as targets Apple iPad's iOS features for interoperability

 Apple's new version of the Macintosh operating system, Mac OS X Lion introduces iPad-like features. Gets its own APP store and multi touch gestures but what benefits the shared features between iOS and Mac OS X Mac? Apple has unveiled the latest version of its operating system for its Macintosh code name Lion, and according to Steve jobs, Apple's CEO, brings many of the best ideas from iPad lion back on the Mac.

Similar to how iPad, to acquire such as Mac users can and Leopard will be available desktop applications using an iTunes account to aktualisieren.Die Mac APP store until February 2011, for Snow Lion, Mac OS X 10.7, appear, if it delivered mid-2011. Launchpad on Mac OS X 10.7 allows apps searched and lighter than look at all Mac apps run iPad style. The eighth major release of the operating system includes car CV and auto save, as a 'mission control'-function.This user can use to shrink display a swipe gesture to all open Windows as thumbnails on the screen.


"With lion, you can enter full screen mode with just one click, switch from a full screen app to another with just a swipe of the trackpad and swipe back on the desktop access your multi-window applications" Apple says. Rob Bamforth, principal analyst at Quocirca, Apple believes trying more task oriented with an improved view of multiple Windows become. "The windowing environment is in the environment first it, used for a long time been. technology workstations by engineers to consider more than one thing at a time," says Bamforth.


"Apple has streamlined and simplified."There are still traditional challenges of proprietary environments for developers, but discussed the basic usability problems and I applaud what you do, "he adds." Carolina Milanesi, Vice President for mobile devices at Gartner, says research, take the best iPhone and iPad to Mac "certainly makes sense". "User is not to try the apps and the flexibility and Touch.Es, turn laptops in tablets but that the functions, iOS devices for the Mac users like to have," says Milanesi.


Ian Fogg, analyst at Forrester, agrees."This was about taking the best innovations of iOS and build in Mac itself", he says. Fogg says Apple is done by other products "cross pollinating" on desktop and Smartphone products, similar to Microsoft innovation pioneer, as Xbox Live, Microsoft Office and Outlook mobile OS is used on his Windows Mobile 7."We see growing synergy in both directions," he says. Fogg considers it crucial for Apple to compete."Apple to sprinkle to innovieren.Es remains fast-paced so you will have to keep innovation."


Other analysts are more critical of the "synergy" between iOS and Mac OS X. "Andy Brown, PC analyst at Strategy Analytics is about iPad - like multi-touch gestures user interface on Mac OS X 10.7 not sure.""It's not so intuitive to use, multi touch on a laptop, as it is on an iPad," he says. "Must be careful not to see as gimmicky or try, cash for in Apple.Benutzer expect different things from the Mac the success which iOS as what you from a Tablet PC or a Smartphone erwarten.Es is to do some work." "But there are benefits.""The more features that integrate and more interoperable are the operating systems are more options are development in the future for form factor" adds Brown. Also it draws lead developers by reducing development time and so reduce developers efforts says Brown.


Greater synergy between iOS and Mac OS X and Mac app store is for developers to develop responding to the search on both the laptop and mobile device platforms. While Mac OS X includes 10.7 iOS properties that one could fully integrated a competitive advantage over the competition, so that there will be new form factors quickly develop and maintain OS that offer combination of iOS and Apple's Mac OS X, a consistent user experience.
