Apple Event on March 4 — What Buffalo Mac & PC Users Need to Know
Apple Event on March 4 — What Buffalo Mac & PC Users Need to Know
Apple on Monday invited selected journalists and content creators to a "special Apple Experience" on Wednesday, March 4 in New York, London, and Shanghai. At an Apple Experience, attendees are typically given the opportunity to try out Apple's latest hardware or software. Following the launch of Apple Creator Studio last month, for example, some content creators attended an Apple Experience in Los Angeles to go hands on with the new subscription-based bundle of apps and features.
The upcoming Apple Experience will likely not be as significant as a traditional Apple Event, but there is a good chance that new hardware will be announced, as well-known journalists such as Joanna Stern were invited this time around. It seems likely that Apple will show off a new lower-cost MacBook at these gatherings. The invite graphic for the upcoming Apple Experience includes a colorful Apple logo with yellow, green, and blue discs, and Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reported that Apple has tested those three colors and pink for the MacBook with an iPhone chip.
In our view, the second-most likely possibility is an iPhone 17e. The spec-bumped successor to the iPhone 16e is expected to have four key upgrades, including MagSafe, an A19 chip, a C1X modem for faster 5G, and an N1 chip for Wi-Fi 7. Other fitting possibilities include an iPad Air with an M4 chip, an iPad 12 with an A18 chip, and a MacBook Air with an M5 chip.
Here's what the team at MacSolutions Plus thinks Buffalo and WNY mac and pc users need to know.

iOS 26.3 Patches Critical Security Flaws — Update Your iPhone Now Apple just released iOS 26.3, iPadOS 26.3, and macOS Tahoe 26.3 — and this one isn't about new features. It's a security update that fixes dozens of vulnerabilities, including one that Apple says was already being used in real-world attacks. If you're carrying an iPhone in your pocket right now (and if you live in Buffalo, Amherst, or anywhere in Western New York, chances are you are), here's what you need to know. What Was the Vulnerability? The most serious flaw involves the dyld dynamic link editor — a core component of iOS and macOS that loads apps and system libraries. A memory corruption bug in dyld could allow an attacker to run malicious code on your device. Apple confirmed this flaw "may have been exploited in an extremely sophisticated attack against specific targeted individuals." That's Apple's way of saying: this was already being used in the wild, likely by state-sponsored...

Your Mac is working against you—and you probably don't even know it. Most Buffalo professionals unbox their MacBook, sign in, and start working. But Apple's default settings are designed for the average user, not someone running a business, managing clients, or juggling a dozen apps. A few quick changes can make your Mac faster, more secure, and less annoying. 1. Turn Off "Optimize Mac Storage" (Before You Lose Access to Your Files) Apple's iCloud feature sounds helpful: it automatically removes old files from your Mac to save space and keeps them in the cloud. The problem? When you're on a plane to a client meeting, driving through a dead zone on the 90, or your internet goes out during a lake-effect storm—those files aren't there. How to fix it: - Open System Settings (or System Preferences on older Macs) - Click your Apple ID at the top, then iCloud - Click iCloud Drive → Options - Uncheck "Optimize Mac Storage" ...
