		<title>Apple prepares iCloud upgrade with photo sharing features</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When Apple unveiled iCloud last summer and announced that it would replace MobileMe, much of the debate revolved around the MobileMe services which didn&#8217;t have a replacement in iCloud. One of those was the ability to post photographs online from iPhoto and Aperture. That may be about to change. The Wall Street Journal (subscription required) [...]]]></description>

		<title>Latest Issue: Volume 28 No 10</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Adobe Creative Suite is the most comprehensive bundle of pro apps available for the Mac, so a new release is always big news. This time it's even bigger. Not only does Creative Suite 6 bring substantial updates to almost all the major components, but it comes with a new way to buy your essential software: Creative Cloud.
 
To get all the apps in Adobe's Master Collection - covering print, web, interactive and video - would normally set you back over £2500. But you can now subscribe to Creative Cloud instead for just under £47 a month. Does it work out cheaper? That depends on which apps you actually use, and whether you already own a version to upgrade from, and how often you plan to upgrade, and which way the wind is blowing - we'll help you with the calculations in our article. But it means anyone who works in the creative industries for a living, even part-time, can now afford to invest in a whole range of the very best tools.
 
So whatever your digital discipline, don't miss our <strong>28-page review of Creative Suite 6</strong> in MacUser Vol 28 No 10, on sale now.]]></description>
